Chapter 522

Zoey decided to mull over this plan once more. Bailey can't stand being alone. In her desperation, shewill seduce her adoptive father. Regardless of whether or not anything actually happened, I doubt thatb*tch Bailey will ever recover from this rumor.

Rhonda saw that Zoey's gaze had softened, indicating that she still had the intention to compromise.Choosing to strike while the iron was hot, Rhonda said, “This plan is effective enough. I think we shouldbe able to tarnish her image thoroughly with this. When that happens, she can forget about theShurmer family taking her back in. I doubt she can even think of setting foot in the Luther residence.Without the protection of the Shurmer and Luther family, she will have nowhere to turn to.”

Zoey slowly clenched her fists. Deep down, she had to admit that she was convinced by this strategyand that she approved of the plan.

“Does your father agree? If we do this, he might be implicated. Would he cooperate with such a viciousscheme?”

Rhonda laughed. “The old man is smart. You're the legitimate daughter of the Shurmer family. He canreap plenty of benefits through you. If you weren't of legitimate blood, he gets nothing. Think about itthis way. He has to sacrifice a bit of his reputation to get rid of Bailey, which in turn, solidifies yourstatus within the family. This is a sure-fire deal. Why wouldn't he agree to it?”

Zoey smirked.

She did not expect any love from Clarence. Now that she learned of what sordid things the old manhad agreed to, she was not the least bit disappointed.

“Okay, we'll go by what you have planned. Tell me. What do you want me to do?”

A cold glint flashed in Rhonda's eyes.

Zoey had taken the bait, and Rhonda's strategy of killing two birds with one stone was about to cometrue.

“I have no power or backing, so I can't convince any reporters to break this story. If you want everyoneto know about this, then you'd have to make those arrangements by yourself.”

“Very well,” said Zoey without thinking.

Zoey wanted to set up Bailey very badly. Now that such a good opportunity had presented itself, shewas naturally going to seize it.

Rhonda also figured that she was in a hurry to deal with Bailey, so she decided to set things up andspring the trap.

Given that Zoey had agreed so readily, Rhonda's heart was filled with immeasurable glee. Things hadgone much smoother than she imagined.

This is perfect!

“Since you agree, Ms. Shurmer, let's officially commence on this strategy. When the time comes forClarence to ask Bailey out, I hope that you would have made the necessary arrangements too.”

“Very well. We'll contact each other on the phone once everything is in place. I will ask the mostinfluential media outlet in Hallsbay to break the news.”

“Perfect! Here's to us taking down Bailey in one fell swoop!”

At the Hoffman residence's study in Moranta, a middle-aged man in his fifties or sixties was sitting onthe sofa.

This was an extremely majestic man, who exuded a domineering and noble air.

He was the leader of the Hoffman family.

“Father, Huntley has consolidated a lot of power in the family of late.”

“Okay.”

“He has also recruited a lot of his former subordinates and established a huge network ofrelationships.”

“Okay.”

“Huntley has also started some shady deals using the Hoffman family name as a shield.”

“Okay.”

Juliana rolled her eyes exasperatedly and asked, “Father, apart from 'okay', can you say somethingelse?”

“Okay.”

“Forget it. Let's just pretend I was never here. I'm leaving.”

Just as Juliana was about to turn around, a voice from the sofa said, “You're more capable than yoursister. Within a few days of returning home, you've already figured out Huntley's limits.”

Juliana raised a brow and narrowed her eyes at him, asking, “I'm sure you already knew that Huntleywas ambitious. Why didn't you put a stop to it? Why did you let him amass power like this?”

Raymond picked up a decanter and poured himself half a glass of whiskey. “He's the whetstone I'veprepared for you,” replied Mr. Hoffman mildly after taking two sips. “Over the past four years, he hasconsolidated about half of the Hoffman family's power. I did not allow for much more than that. Theother half is for you. If you can successfully regain his half of the power, then I will name you thematriarch of the Hoffman family because you have already proven your worth as a qualified superior.”

Juliana looked at him with surprise etched on her face.

A whetstone? This means that Father intentionally allowed Huntley to grow in power and kept himsuppressed so that he doesn't go overboard. In other words, his main goal all along is to test me andsee if I can successfully wrestle power from that guy.

Juliana had always known that her father was swift and decisive, but she never expected him to be soresolute.

“Does Huntley know what you're planning?”

Raymond smiled mysteriously. “What do you think? His family and friends are in the palm of my hand.I've used his loved ones' lives to threaten him and force him to be a suitable whetstone.”

Juliana could feel a pang of sadness soaring in her heart.

She had not been in frequent contact with Huntley, but she could sense that the young man wasconstantly preoccupied with something. As it turned out, he had quite the burden placed on hisshoulders.

“As of now, he is my fiancé. Soon, he will be my husband. Aren't you worried that I'd cave in and givethe rest of my power to him?”

Raymond laughed softly. “That's up to you. However, let me remind you of this. The Cloudax family hasbeen facing constant oppression for years, so naturally, there will be resentment in their hearts. If ourfamily ends up under their control, they will immediately put the Hoffman family to the knife. Not asingle person will be spared. Is this a burden you can afford to carry?”
