Marriage With A Evil Heart

Chapter 96: Mastermind Behind the Scenes



I abruptly stood up, looking at Scarlette and Warren. “I understand now why Robert suddenly stopped my medication.”

Scarlette immediately inquired, “What do you mean? Is there another reason?”

“The reason Robert stopped my medication, allowing me to continue surviving, is that he also thought about this aspect. Once I’m dead, my parents would undoubtedly raise objections to Medikit Inc. After all, it’s the culmination of my family’s efforts, the funds they’ve accumulated over a lifetime. They wouldn’t easily let it go.”

Scarlette nodded vigorously. “Of course, even I wouldn’t believe otherwise!”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“And currently, once the old estate in Southend is relocated, it will be worth several, if not dozens of times, the value of Medikit Inc. Plus, the shares of Sheel Pharma. When that happens, Robert will become extremely vulnerable,” my train of thought becomes clearer.

“He must have considered that once my parents discover his scheme, the only way to counter it is by shorting Medikit Inc and reclaiming ownership. On the contrary, if I’m alive, he can intensify his efforts to deceive me and further exploit their assets,” a tear slid down my cheek unnoticed.

I wiped it away and continued, “As long as I’m alive, my parents will eventually transfer these funds into my name.”

“Damn it, the beast! No wonder he’s still pretending, flaunting affection everywhere!” Scarlette cursed indignantly. “He’s downright treacherous!”

I nodded. “Scarlette, if it weren’t for the day we saw Paul and learned he was investigating Sheel Pharma, I wouldn’t have understood that Robert had already formulated a new plan.”

“That’s fate! Fate won’t let you perish; no one can!” Scarlette comforted me.

“Perhaps, this is the true reason I survived. I truly have to thank the heavens for these coincidences that allowed me to escape Robert’s clutches. It’s truly a miracle; who would have expected such a city plan for Southend!” I exclaimed.

“But, for now, it’s still just a plan!” Scarlette said. “I heard this rumor last time I went back, but when it will be implemented is still uncertain.”

“So, I need to return to Southend. As long as this rumor persists, I’m safe! Once this information disappears, he might strike again,” I laughed self-deprecatingly. “And it seems I can’t count on this fund either.”

Warren nodded. “Yes, since you put it that way, Robert must be closely monitoring these funds. Your idea is good; you throw with one hand and catch with the other. When everything is back in your hands, you can gradually raise the price. Not only will you not lose, but you might make a huge profit. Still, the reserve of funds is no small amount.”

“No, something’s wrong!” I pondered for a while, feeling puzzled. “This isn’t Robert’s mindset.”

“Why do you say that?” Scarlette asked.

“From what I know about Robert, he definitely doesn’t have such meticulous economic acumen. There must be a mastermind behind him!” I affirmed.

“Are you saying it’s Amelia? That can’t be!” Scarlette looked at me with disdain.

“Of course not! She doesn’t have that capability!” I asserted. “This long-term plan is beyond her control. There’s definitely a mastermind behind Robert!”

“Could it be the influence of Steven?”

I shook my head.

At this moment, I suddenly thought of his other phone, where all the contacts were unfamiliar to me. I quickly took out my new phone, which I had been hiding cautiously, fearing that Robert would discover it.

I retrieved the information from the phone I had taken pictures of and handed it to Scarlette. “Scarlette, please ask Albert to check these people. These are contacts from Robert’s other secret phone, along with some WhatsApp data. I suspect these individuals are not ordinary.”

Then I turned to Warren. “I’ve lived with him for ten years, but none of these people are familiar to me. This must be his other circle. Maybe we can find some clues.”

Warren took the phone, glanced at the information, and sought my opinion. “Can I make a copy?”

I nodded. “Of course.”

They both copied the information, and I instructed Scarlette, “Please organize these for me and keep them safe. I can’t keep them on my phone anymore. Robert is already suspicious of me, and I need to clear this phone!”
