Chapter 286 New Potential Ally
Charis's private investigator couldn't find a lot of information about Laney whose identity was kept confidential.
However, there was a piece of information that shocked Charis. It was that Laney was one of the top bodyguards in the country and she had protected many wealthy personalities in the past. This indicated that she had several years of experience under her belt.
Another shocking detail was that Laney was also the same woman who had saved Janet from the car accident.
Charis didn't need anyone to tell her that Brandon was the one that hired her for Janet's utmost protection.
'Aargh! Brandon even got Laney into the Larson Group so that she could watch and protect Janet closely. Since he is going all out to protect that bitch, it means she's very dear to his heart. This is so annoying!' Charis became angrier and more jealous as she put two and two together.
"Why does he like her so much? Humph!" She snorted.
She was so heartbroken that the urge to make Janet disappear became stronger than ever before.
'Gosh! He has only known Janet for a few months, but she's already a very important person to him. Is he blind? What does he see in her? I really can't understand why he's head over heels in love with that Plain Jane.'
The more Charis thought about Brandon's strong love for Janet, the more worried she became. She feared that he might even decide to announced to the public one day that Janet was Brandon Larson's wife. Not Ethan, Brandon. Hence, she decided to get rid of her before it was too late.
As much as she wanted to finish Janet off immediately, she couldn't do it herself.
Kent had failed her previously. She even colluded with Fiona, but the latter also failed. Her previous attempts were a little easier. But now that Laney was protecting Janet, it would be more difficult to get to her.
Charis was dead sure that the future held doom for her if she didn't eliminate Janet soon. Time wasn't on her side now.
She tapped her foot on the floor and racked her brain. After a while, she abruptly stood up from the chair with a sinister smile on her face. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
"Oh, you were so stupid, Charis! How could you have forgotten the Lester family? Those people are the ones that can help you now. You must contact them," she murmured to herself.
After falling in love with Ethan in high school, Charis paid utmost attention to the Lester family. She knew that everyone in that family wasn't to be messed with. More so, she was aware that Elissa, the real Mrs. Lester, and his two halfbrothers hated him so much and they would be more than willing to grab any chance to hurt him.
The Lester Group and the Larson Group were currently rivals in the business industry.
Now that Janet worked for the Larson Group, she saw it as a great opportunity to make the Lesters hate her. She planned to play her cards right, so this wouldn't cause any problems for the company.
Ritchie seemed to be the best potential ally out of all of them. Hence, she decided to use him.
It had been ages since Charis last saw Ritchie. However, she remembered that in high school, he looked nothing like Ethan even though they had the same father. Ethan was way more handsome than him.
Ritchie had been two grades higher than Charis and Ethan when they got into high school. He didn't graduate from high school with honors, so he wasn't granted admission to any top university. But his
family bribed the school admission officer at one of the universities and eventually got him in.
Right from childhood, Ritchie had been a school bully and he committed a lot of offenses. However, his family always helped him clean up his mess without bringing him to order. He had slightly grown out of his troublesome behavior, but it was a known fact that he hadn't changed much. And this was the first reason why Charis thought he was the best person to collude with.
The Lesters weren't people who trusted outsiders easily. She would have to employ a good trick to get any of them on her side. But she was so blinded by her wicked ambition to get rid of Janet that she didn't care anything else.
'Ritchie will crush that bitch like a fly,' Charis thought confidently. Another reason why Ritchie was the perfect candidate was that he wasn't as emphatic and careful as Kent. People like Janet were nothing in his eyes.
