Chapter 887
Although he clearly knew that this trip was vain one, and although there was no hope, he did not want to give up. If he wanted to find any clues about John Hughes, he could only start from him, no matter what would happened, Edward had decided to meet his uncle.
"Young Master, I don't think he'd really be here to pick us up. He just wants to see you!" Only now did Larry think back to the look in John Hughes's eyes just now. How terrifying it was. He had been scrutinizing at Young Master, as if he was trying to gauge the difference between the two of them. This person's goal was so obvious, I really don't know if he was crazy or naive.
Edward Hughes nodded his head, "Yes, of course he isn't sincere in coming to pick me up. He only wants to know how much of a gap between him and me after so many years, so he will have a better chance of winning if he knows the depths of the enemy."
"Young Master, you have to be careful. Before this, we have investigated his situation in the prison, he is very good at bribing people, and those people in the prison are all desperate criminals who do not care about their lives. This is his territory, so we have to be careful, just in case he hurt us!" Larry realized that although the Young Master knew of tigers in the mountains, he continued moving on. He was a brave man, but the situation still made people worry.
Edward's calm eyes flashed slightly, and indeed, he was afraid that his uncle would use any means at his disposal, wanting to fight him at all costs.
"We need to be careful, so we need to make this arrangement as safe and secure as possible!" Edward did not dare to be careless, and he made his preparations.
Jane had been anxiously waiting in the living room all the time. Seeing the car returning, she was filled
with anticipation, she anxiously went out to welcome them, and saw the furious John. All her anticipation was gone, and the smile on her face froze.
Didn't he come?
Jane was extremely disappointed.
Although she knew that John did not went to meet him at the airport with sincerity, she still hoped that Edward would come over. Even if he had only come for a cup of tea, she would still be very happy.
From the looks of it, Edward did not even have the mood to come over for tea.
"Daddy" Jane walked over quickly and asked softly, "What's wrong? Did he make you angry again?"
John, in front of his daughter, did not hide the anger in his heart at all: "Hmph, this arrogant brat, he didn't even give me face anymore. In a few years, I'm afraid that he will not even put me in his eyes. Just thinking about it makes me angry."
Jane's face froze for a moment, then she consoled gently, "Daddy, don't be angry, Edward has been in charge of the company for a few years, don't bother with him."
"Don't bother with him?" John's eyes suddenly swept across her, and then, he squinted and asked suspiciously: "Jane, are you still liking him? If one day he asks you for help, will you go and help him without a word?"
"Daddy, of course I won't help him!" Seeing John's doubtful gaze, Jane was immediately scared to stiff,
shaking her head in a panic to explain.
"Really? I want you to swear a vow now, that no matter how Edward pleads for your help in the future, you will not help him!" At this moment, John's heart was extremely narrow-mind, and he also extremely doubted anyone. At this moment, he naturally hoped that his daughter, who he trusted with all his heart, would not abandon him.
Jane's heart struggled a little, she actually did not know what kind of choice she would make if a day like this came, but, at this moment, her father's suspicions made her uneasy, so she had to deal with the difficulties right in front of her.
After hearing her oath, John relaxed his heart, and reached out to pat Jane's shoulders. "Don't blame me for being ruthless, Daddy simply doesn't trust others, Daddy has been very unhappy in prison for the past few years, you will understand, won't you?"
Her tears rolled down her face as she nodded: "Daddy, of course I understand you. Don't worry, in the future, I will definitely help you regain your former glory." NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
John heard this and snorted, "What is the purpose of Edward's visit? Is he really here to do business?"
Jane was also unable to guess, she shook her head and said: "He is a fanatic about work, maybe he really did come here for business."
"He's so dedicated to his work, no wonder the old man is so reliant on him." John sighed, feeling both discontent and helpless.
"Daddy, elder brother has already obtained the trust and love of grandfather. I believe that before long,
he will be able to start his company in our country." Jane immediately said something that made him happy.
"Hmph, my dad only treated Jack so well because he felt that he owed him a lot of thing such as love." John was the old man's son, he actually guessed the old man's intentions right away.
Jane nodded her head: "Even so, brother should have gained something from this trip"
"The reason why I didn't let him return to our country for the past five years was to prepare for today's plan. At least, the result is what I wanted to see. My parents will definitely treat Jack well. Edward and Jack are both their grandchildren, so the difference they treat them won't be too big." John snorted, and said his analysis with an extremely strong sense of purpose.
Therefore, she suddenly begged in a low voice: "Daddy, I want to talk to Edward about a few things!"
"You still love him?" John sneered.
"Daddy, I don't love him, but I'm just like you. I'm not willing to be abandoned like this."
Jane answered without conscience, but in reality, she did indeed love Edward a lot. That love, had already made her somewhat crazy, and she had even become abnormal.
John looked at his daughter's beautiful appearance, and suddenly laughed, "Alright, go to find him, anyway, you can be considered as his first lover.
Hearing the word "first lover" Jane suddenly blushed, looking a little embarrassed.
"If you continue to use your beauty to entangle him, that is what Father would be happy to see." John laughed, a sinister light once again surfaced in his eyes.
Jane was startled for a moment, but very quickly, she ridiculed herself: "Daddy, I'm afraid I might disappoint you."
"It doesn't matter whether you disappoint me or not. If you can disappoint that woman called Felicity, it's also not bad!" John knew that Edward really loved the woman called Felicity. It was because of the rich harvest in their relationships that caused Edward to work even harder.
"I’ll try my best!" Jane whispered.
