Oswald noticed Edwin wasn't shocked after hearing his words, and his face remained emotionless."You are not surprised?" Oswald asked with a slight look of puzzle."Why should I be when I already know it was you?" Edwin replied with a question. "You weren't in your room last night. You left the mansion, and the next day Timothy was announced dead. It's not hard to connect the dots." He added."I see. So does anyone else know I left the mansion last night? Or is it just you?" Oswald inquired."The maid and her daughter do." Edwin responded."I see. I'll take care of them later." Oswald stated."When you say you'll take care of them you don't mean kill them, do you?" Edwin asked, his eyes widened slightly in terror."No, I won't kill them. What kind of monster do you think I am? I will just speak to them and make sure they don't spill." Oswald responded. "But that's not important right now, Edwin. I told you that because I will be needing your help tomorrow night.""What do you need me

Brian Walters straightened his suit as he sat down opposite Edwin."So tell me... Why are you here? I'm all ears." Edwin stated.Brian cleared his throat as he began."I'm sure you must have heard about what happened to my company, and if you haven't heard I will inform you. I was approached by a man who said he was the CEO of a company in Manchester. He provided some evidence which made me believe that what he was saying was actually the truth.""My company was doing well at that time, yes, and sales were good. However, I wasn't quite satisfied. I needed more so I can go toe to toe with a company like yours. In the end of the day it all turned out to be a scam. There was no company in Manchester, and all he said was a lie.""To cut the long story short, I bought some shares, shares worth $4,000,000,000, and he ran away with all the money. The four billion was all the profit left in my company, and now that it's gone I'm left with nothing.""The affluent families who were investing in

"You guys don't understand. Oswald was the one who killed Tim. Earlier this morning I saw him having a secret discussion with Edwin in his room. I think they were talking about how to cover their tracks." Marcellus spoke up audibly.All heads turned to face Marcellus after hearing the words he had just said."What are you talking about, Marcellus?" Herbert asked."I heard Oswald whispering something to Edwin in his room and I also saw him leaving. Believe me, father, they are hiding something." Marcellus responded."Okay, let's say Oswald was truly the one who killed Tim, you think he'd go to Edwin? Edwin is just a kid for crying out loud." Roderick blurted."He's 23 years old, he's not a kid." Marcellus countered."I could have sworn you told him to shut up during a family meeting and shouldn't contribute because he's only a kid. Now he's no longer a kid to you?" Roderick scoffed."He's old enough to handle things like this. Edwin was the only one who also voted to start a war with t

"The only way now is for you to divorce Noah Sturridge and find a way to marry Edwin Blackwood. If you succeed in winning his heart we'll be back on top in no time." Emily added. "We talked about this, mum, I'm not going to divorce Noah." Katherine interjected with a frown. "Why not? I don't think Sturridge is useful to this family anymore. We've already gotten the resources and connections we needed from his family. The connections we even got from them are mostly useless. We do not need him anymore. Go for a bigger fish, darling. Edwin Blackwood is the CEO of all his family's companies. If you can make him your husband we'll no doubt become one of the affluent families in the whole of Newcastle and even England." Emily articulated as she walked towards her daughter and placed both hands on her shoulders. "That's the same thing you said when you wanted me to marry Noah!" Katherine voiced out as she slapped Emily's hands off her shoulders. "You told me to divorce Lucas so I can ma

Edwin drove his car through the dimly lit street of Newcastle. The streets were almost pitch black and empty, and the only source of light was the light from his car. Driving a few meters behind him was Marcellus. Marcellus had his gaze fixed intently on Edwin's car."What are you up to?" He mused while driving forward. Marcellus suspected that Oswald and Edwin were responsible for the death of Timothy Hardcastle but he was unable to prove anything. Without any proof no one would believe a word he says.So right now that he caught Edwin leaving the mansion and driving his car towards a strange area he was sure they were up to something. And maybe if he follows them he might get concrete evidence against them.Edwin drove for several minutes, making his way towards the docks. He rotated the steering of the car and took a turn to a different street. The moment he arrived in the street, Oswald emerged from the shadows and stood in front of his car.Edwin's eyes widened in shock after ca
