Chapter 332 Silence Fee
Chapter 332 Silence Fee
“Shhh! Keep your voice down!”
Jacqueline vigilantly pulled her back to her position and covered her mouth, “I’m telling you; this is no trivial matter. If it happens, we will have peace of mind for the rest of our lives!”
Inexplicable fear flashed in Yolanda’s eyes. She looked at her, her lips trembled, “Mom, are you trying to kill someone?”
Jacqueline did not say a word, Yolanda was even more convinced of her guess, and tightly grabbed her hand, “Mom, are you crazy! Don’t be foolish, didn’t we say it? Just his legs!”
“Do you think that pair of legs are that valuable!?” Jacqueline said irritably, “George favors Logan, even if he was disabled, he never thought of giving up letting him inherit the Brown family from the start. I am thinking about our future!”
“But what if we’re exposed? We will be done for life!”
“What are you afraid of?”
Jacqueline patted her waist and straightened her back, “Yolanda, if you don’t succeed, you will become benevolent! We have no other choice!”
“But we can’t kill anyone!” Yolanda took a deep breath and turned her back, somewhat unacceptable to the whole situation.
Jacqueline pulled her face down, “I will make my own plans for this matter. If you can’t pay for it, then forget it!”
“Then where are you going to get money from?”
Jacqueline’s eyes dodged, but she already made a decision, “This is my business, you just need to not meddle with it.”
“Mom, don’t go overboard, we need to leave a way for ourselves!”
About her admonishment, Jacqueline didn’t listen to it at all, but instead settled her mind, “Yolanda, don’t you understand it now? We have nowhere to retreat. What more on a backup path!”
Yolanda blinked her eyes, looked at her in confusion, and revealed helplessness in her eyes.
Jacqueline was reluctant to force her, just patted her shoulder and said, “You go back first. Just treat it as you didn’t hear anything today, and you haven’t seen anything.”
Yolanda opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she was already pushed out by her mother.
“Go to the company and stay there, there will always have something you could do!”
Yolanda squeezed her hands silently, after all, she accepted it and quickly disappeared into the courtyard.
In City G, Kent was having a meeting, and there was a vibration from his mobile phone. After a glimpse, he saw a line of transfer information. He immediately evoked a perfect smile on his face, “Today’s meeting will end here first.”
Having said that, he had already picked up the phone and strode out.
On the other side, Logan had just confirmed that the Lees Group had sold some of their shares and made a loan before buying all the real estate surrounding the unsafe building. He was about to call David back, but Kent had already called.
“Hi...”
Listening to his sulky voice, Logan immediately guessed something, “Could it be that the advance payment already paid?”
Kent whistled, “Thanks to you.”
Logan squinted his eyes, just then Elena and Jacob walked in with some information, that made him smile deeper, “It’s just your silence fee.”
Elena’s face was suspicious and felt that the sentence earlier was directed at her.
Jacob has quietly exited the office without waiting for a cue, leaving only them alone.
Kent didn’t react at first, but after a while, he figured it out, suddenly the veins on his forehead became apparent, as he gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t think about it! I haven’t recognized you as my brother- in-law yet!”
Just as Elena approached, she could hear him clearly. She looked at Logan suspiciously, as if she was asking him silently. ‘Didn’t you say that you didn’t recognize him as your older brother-in-law? How’s it that now you had even paid him his silence fee?’ NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
Logan squeezed her hand, his thin lips pursed with a small smile.
“It’s up to you to decide whether to admit it or not. You have to call it sooner or later.”
Kent almost exploded, “If you want me to call, you must address me as your older brother first!”
“...”
The corners of Logan’s mouth twitched fiercely, and Kent suddenly noticed something, and his angry expression disappeared.
“I said, Logan, this is for my sister’s sake, you have to call me brother sooner or later, right?”
“I wish you would be dealt with by Edward Ford soon!” Logan said solemnly.
Kent shrugged indifferently, “I also look forward to that day, but it’s impossible!”
Logan gloomily tightened his frown, stopped answering, and directly cut the call. He wanted to make him call brother, dream on!
Looking at his reaction, Elena immediately knew the ins and outs, and curled her lips toward him innocently, “What else can I do, who made me younger than him by just those few years?”
That’s why Kent took advantage, and she had to address him as her older brother.
Logan depressingly pinched her cheek, “Don’t you hate him?”
“No.” Elena shook her head obediently, “In fact, he is quite a good person, and he hasn’t done nothing to hurt me.”
“He kidnapped you!”
The man’s face went dark when he mentioned the incident.
Elena shook her head and held his hand to her lower abdomen, “But he also saved the life of our baby and me. This incident is enough to offset all the wrong things he had done.”
Logan disagrees, “If it weren’t for him, you wouldn’t have an accident.”
Having said that, it’s not how it should be settled, they need to look at the incidents objectively. In any case, she still had to be grateful to Kent.
With a gloomy look on the man’s face, Elena smiled and raised her hand to rub his cheek and coaxed softly, “Okay, it has been long since the incident happened, why do you still mention it.”
Logan pressed his thin lips tightly, Elena bit her lower lip tightly, changed the conversation, and spoke again, “Kent just called, is there something happening on Jacqueline’s end?”
“Yes.”
“What else does she want Kent to do!?”
Seeing the worried look of the woman, Logan kindly explained, “No, she gave Kent money to kill me. It’s just the initial payment, there will be another sum of money when the job is done.”
It was then that Elena suddenly realized, “So the silence fee that you all mentioned earlier was referring to that?”
“Or what did you think?”
Elena smiled, “I don’t know why, but what should we do after this? Do we continue to not respond? Would Jacqueline agree?”
What she asked the right point. Logan hooked his lips and gently held her chin and said, “If that is the case, how about we come give Jacqueline a good show?”
Elena looked puzzled but when she saw that the smile in Logan’s eyes grew thicker, and his hands pressed against her cheeks slowly reminding her word by word.
“You only need to focus on taking care of the baby, and the rest to me...”
