CHAPTER 145
Mr Freeman was immediately stunned by the name Abigail Clark.“Mr Freeman, what do you think of her…Abigail Clark?”“Should we entertain her and see if she can help us with anything useful against Tai Vandel, her evil grandfather, Lord Vandel and most especially my stupid ex-wife Vera Hartwell and her entire family, the Hartwells.”“I really want to see what they had become after she divorced me and remarried to a dude who they obviously thought was richer than me, not knowing that I'm a West family heir…” Victor Langston West immediately said.“Actually, you are the last living heir and inheritor of everything in the West family Master West.” Peterson, the servant who had come to report that Abigail Clark was at the gate immediately said.Mr Freeman immediately took a deep breath and began, his expression transforming from the confident advisor of moments before into something far more contemplative, more cautious, more weighted with the gravity of what they were discussing."Master
CHAPTER 144
"We always have choices. We could walk away entirely, focus on rebuilding the West family business empire, living successful lives without pursuing vengeance. That's a legitimate choice." Mr Freeman immediately said.He turned back to face Victor Langeston West immediately."Or we could spend decades trying to build a case through legitimate channels, knowing that the Vandels will likely corrupt or circumvent our efforts at every turn, possibly succeeding eventually but more likely watching them continue to prosper while we grow old chasing an impossible dream. That's also a choice.""Or," Mr. Freeman continued, his voice strengthening, "we could accept the alliance Lord Xander and Rico are offering, use their resources and intelligence to strike at the Vandels effectively, accept the manageable risks that come with that alliance, and actually accomplish the goal of seeing your parents' murderers destroyed.”“That's the choice I recommend, but it is still a choice, not an inevitabilit
CHAPTER 143
Mr. Freeman smiled slightly, a knowing expression that suggested he had anticipated this question."Of course they'll expect something in return, Master West. Nobody provides significant assistance without expecting reciprocity…that's basic human nature, whether we're talking about criminals or legitimate businesspeople.”Mr Freeman immediately said and shook his head before continuing almost at the same time.“The question isn't whether obligations will be created, the question is whether those obligations are manageable and whether they're worth the benefit we receive."He immediately pushed off from the desk and began pacing again, his analytical mind clearly working through the calculation."Think about it this way Master West, Lord Xander and Rico want the Vandels destroyed for their own reasons. Their interests align with ours in that specific goal. They're offering to provide intelligence, resources, and strategic support to help us accomplish that shared objective.”“In return

CHAPTER 141
Immediately Nanny Louis stepped out of the door, Mr Freeman immediately walked over to the cup of coffee that Victor Langston West who is now called Master West was drinking and took a sip."This is good coffee, did she make this?" He immediately asked Victor Langston West almost immediately.Victor Langeston West immediately took a deep breath and said, "Yes, she did, seriously what's her deal with our partnership, I mean the West family alliance initiative program?""What do you really think about everything Nanny Louis had just said?" Victor Langeston West immediately asked as he stared at Mr Freeman who was still drinking the hot coffee."Master West," Mr. Freeman began, setting the coffee cup down on the mahogany desk with deliberate care. He walked over to the large window that overlooked the estate grounds, his silhouette backlit by the afternoon sun that was beginning its descent toward the horizon."What I think is that Nanny Louis is both right and wrong simultaneously, whic
CHAPTER 140
“Believe me, I do. When Daniel disappeared, when I realized Lord Xander had murdered my brother, I wanted nothing more than to see him destroyed.” Nanny Louis immediately said as she stared at both Mr Freeman and Victor Langston West.“But I also understood that becoming like him, using his methods, compromising myself in pursuit of revenge…that wouldn't honor Daniel's memory.”“That would just create more victims, more suffering, more darkness in a world that already has far too much.""This isn't about becoming like them," Victor protested. "I'm not running criminal organizations, I'm not trafficking people or selling drugs. I'm simply accepting information and resources from people who happen to operate outside the law in order to bring other criminals to justice.""That's a distinction that becomes murkier the deeper you go," Nanny Louis warned. "Every step down this path makes the next step easier to justify. Today it's accepting intelligence obtained through illegal surveillance
