Chapter 8

Hector still looked at me calmly. After discovering my true identity, he did not hide the admiration in his eyes. I felt a little uncomfortable as if I had been played by him. According to my discussion with him before, if he fell in love with my fake identity, then how is he going to face my true identity?

"It seems you won't be able to leave when you come back this time, so I'm relieved."

Hector showed a relaxed smile. It seemed that he had been worried about whether he could keep me, but after hearing part of my plan, he felt relieved.

"I won't leave, but I won't stay here forever. After all, most of my strength is in the UK."

I leaned back in the chair indifferently. I knew that he wanted our marriage to become a reality, and I also knew that I should be one of the beliefs that made him stronger despite all the difficulties in these ten years, but I didn't know him well, and I still feel that Aldrin makes me trust him more.

He didn't speak, and his eyes fell on the plate in front of him, but I was still keenly aware of the hint of calculation in his eyes.

"So, you deliberately used marriage to lure me back, and you knew the fake identity I used from the beginning?"

Seeing him touching his nose guiltily, I snorted coldly. Is he so sure that just a letter announcing the marriage will bring me back?

"The letter Andy wrote to you is the real reason for you to come back. I know you will not let anyone hurt the people you care about. Have you ever thought that if no one protected Andy, she would still be alive to waiting for your come back?"

His tone was very firm, and I was a little surprised, so he knew even about Andy writing the letter, maybe he even instructed Andy to do it?

My feelings are a bit complicated. It seems that he took the initiative to propose the marriage to my father, so his attitude and behavior towards my father also make sense. After all, he did not let my father enter his real social circle.

"You are the reason why I came back, but it doesn't matter, I need an honest reason to come back for revenge."

Knowing his attitude, I simply didn't hide it. Even if he told my father about it, I could use some means to complete my revenge plan, but that would bring me a bad reputation, and I didn't want to do that. Cause trouble for myself.

"I have already acquired 10% of Nelson Group's shares. You and your sister should have 20%. The rest is in the hands of your grandfather, father, and stepbrother. What are you going to do?"

I thought of my grandfather whom I had only met once. He had been recuperating in the suburbs far away from the city. However, important decisions of the Nelson Group still needed to be reviewed by him, and he had veto power and wanted to win over the Nelson Group. He is a huge stumbling block, and I heard that several of his old friends are important figures in the United States, and they will not watch their grandfather fall into crisis.

What a hassle.

Seeing my frown, Hector reached out and touched my brow. "Don't worry, my status in the industry is not low now. If you need me, I will do my best to help you. Even if you want MC, I will give it to you. After all, it exists for you."

Hector seemed to be lost in memories. I saw him sighing with emotion. It was not difficult to think that his father was dead and his mother had not wanted him since he was born. His first thought should be to live well, and then for his father's revenge.

However, what happened back then was well covered up, and he must have tolerated it for many years, and now he wants to propose marriage to his enemy...

"Myluna, the thing I don't regret the most is asking your father to marry you. He is him and you are you. Even in the future, I will still not regret it."

As if he could read my thoughts, Hector spoke these words first, as if to reassure me.

"Hector, we have the same goal, but revenge and marriage have no connection for me, and you may always keep an eye on me. My suitors in the UK are also very good."

"You are talking about Aldrin Anderson. During the time your sisters were in England, he was the one who took care of you the most besides your teacher."

Sure enough, he knew.

"I don't know whether I should be grateful that your fate is so good, or should I feel unlucky for myself. You really have provoked a powerful love rival for me. As far as I know, his power is almost all over the world, and he only started to expand to the Americas this year. He may want to move here for you."

Hector sighed deeply, looking bitter and resentful, but I felt that his expression was just an act, and I didn't feel that he was really worried.

"What a cunning fox." I rolled my eyes angrily, but in my heart, I felt that the meal I had with him was the first such comfortable meal since I returned to China, so I simply let him go for the time being, as long as he didn't just make trouble for me.

However, it’s time to go to work at MC. He told me on the cruise that I was already an official employee of MC, but he gave me so many days off. Now Andy has been settled, and I also know the resentment between me and the Nelson family. All hatred must be carried out as planned.

Of course, I still remember the conversation the teacher had with me before I left. He said that I couldn’t rely on Hector to vent my anger for me. Since I have decided to take action, I must take over Nelson Group step by step. Otherwise, even if Hector acquires Nelson Group and gives it to me, I still won’t be convinced by my employees as the new leader.
