CHAPTER 380 THE TRUTH
She had not forgotten what she overheard on the phone last time.
She knew that what he said on the phone was clearly about the Taylor Group having a grudge against the Lancaster Group. Therefore, the company he said was going to be devoured by them was definitely the Lancasters.
So the reason why she asked knowingly was to hear how he would answer.
"Of course you haven't heard about it. Well, it's not just you. Mr. Lancaster and the entire business district of Vancouver haven't heard about it." Elliot raised a finger and waved.
Yvonne secretly pinched her thigh to calm herself down and pretended to be curious. "So tell me then, which company is it? You’re killing me."
"It’s a secret!" Elliot smiled mysteriously and pulled her leg by not telling her.
Yvonne frowned, "Why is it a secret? The Taylor Group will definitely try to take down that company sooner o r later, and I'll find out anyway so what's the difference between keeping it secret and telling me now?"
"Of course there's a difference. If I tell you now, it won't be exciting anymore." Elliot looked at her.
Yvonne pursed her lower lip and pretended to be unhappy. She said, "If you don't want to tell me, fine. I don't want to know either. But you could at least tell m e what grudges your father has against that company, right?"
"I guess I can." Elliot nodded and touched his chin.
Yvonne's eyes lit up and she moved closer. "So tell me!"
Her heart was beating fast.
She really wanted to know why the Taylors hated the Lancasters.
"Actually, the beef between them was simply over a woman. Twenty years ago, the heir to that company took my father's most beloved woman away from him and rendered my father infertile, so he could not have any children. You’ve probably seen my father in a wheelchair?" Elliot asked.
Yvonne nodded, "Yes I did. Your father can't walk on his legs."
"No, no, no!" Elliot shook his fingers again. "He can actually walk, but he has weak legs so he can’t walk for long. Therefore, he’ll always be in a wheelchair. However, this is not the most important thing. The important thing is that my father became infertile. Can you imagine how irrational a man would be if he loses the most important thing to him?"
"..." Yvonne opened her mouth and did not answer.
Elliot continued, "For a man, losing the symbol of a man is undoubtedly crueler than killing him, you know that? Moreover, it was his most trusted best friend who did this to him."
"How could this be..." Yvonne muttered in disbelief.
Elliot sneered when he heard her response. "But that’s the truth. My father survived with hatred in his heart and he vowed to ruin his enemy. It’s a pity that my father didn’t have enough power 20 years ago, so he couldn't take revenge. That was why he went abroad-he wanted to grow his own power."
Speaking of this, he felt a little thirsty. He took the glass of water he had just put down earlier and took a sip. He then continued, "Finally, after 20 years, my father's power is on par with his enemy’s, so he returned to Vancouver because he wanted to destroy his enemy with his own hands."
"I see..." Yvonne bit her lower lip tightly, and it felt like a terrible storm in her heart.
Elliot's words were enough to prove that the enemy of the Lancasters that had been lurking in the dark was the Taylors!
The old man who tied her and beat her up was Shaw Taylor because she still remembered how that old man had trouble walking-it was exactly the same as what Elliot described just now.
Yvonne started breathing heavily as she thought about it, and her body trembled slightly.
Elliot noticed it so he quickly put down the glass of
water and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yvonne didn't want him to find out anything, so she lowered her head and pretended to be weak. "Nothing. The wind was blowing earlier and I felt a little cold. I tested my bone marrow twice so my body isn't as good now. I can't stand the wind." i
"It should rain in a while. I'll close the French windows." Elliot got up and walked toward the balcony to close the French windows.
Yvonne also rubbed her arms and stretched out her tense body. "Thank you, I feel much better."
"Is your body that bad now?" Elliot frowned.
Yvonne touched the tip of her nose with guilt. "It's not that bad."
"How about going abroad with me in two months?" Elliot suddenly proposed.
Yvonne paused for a moment. "Go abroad?"
"Well, I can take you abroad for treatment. The medical treatments abroad are more advanced than osethose in Canada. If you get treated abroad, it'll be better than just recovering at home." Elliot looked at her without the usual childishness on his face, and he looked extremely serious.
Yvonne could tell that he meant it and she was shocked. It took her a long time to finally open her mouth and said, "Why are you... Why are you being so nice to me?" 1
Elliot raised his eyebrows, "Didn't I say that I like you? But you never believed it. Since I like you, I wanted to d o something for you and after thinking about it, it's probably best to take you abroad for treatment."
"You don't need to be so nice to me." Yvonne looked at him complicatedly.
After finding out that he was one of the Lancasters' enemies, she never thought about continuing their friendship, i
She was still there talking to him peacefully because she still wanted to get more information from him so that she could tell Henry. Henry could then defeat the Taylors and Conrads who had been behind him this whole time...
But what she did not expect was that he actually cared about her health and wanted to take her abroad for treatment. When she compared herself with him, she suddenly realized how despicable she was.
"I want to be nice to you. You're the first woman that I actually like, and in order to prove that my feelings for you are no less than Mr. Lancaster’s, then I'll do what h e didn't do," Elliot said with a smile as he didn't know what Yvonne was thinking.
Yvonne felt a little guilty when she saw that he looked like a child vying for favor.
"I really don't know what to do with you..." Yvonne said in a deep voice and covered her face.
Elliot thought she was worried about Henry and he could not help but frown. "What's the problem? You only need to wait two months at most, because that’s when my father will take revenge, so I'll take you out o f here and go abroad."
When Yvonne heard this, she moved her hand away from her face and her expression seemed a little anxious. "Two months? Do you plan to get everything done within two months?"
"That’s right." Elliot nodded. "So within these two months, you..."
When he was still talking, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang. Content is © by .
Yvonne looked into his pocket and her eyes flickered.
Although Elliot was also a little dissatisfied that he was interrupted by the call, he still took his phone out and said, "I’m going to take this call."
He pointed to the balcony.
Yvonne nodded, "Go ahead."
Elliot walked towards the balcony. After reaching the balcony, he carefully closed the French windows.
The French windows on the balcony had great sound insulation properties. So when he closed it, no one could hear him at all from the inside.
Yvonne was a little disappointed. She saw his caller I D just now, and it was from Shaw. She wanted to hear what they were talking about to see if she could hear any more important information, but unexpectedly, he did not give her the chance at all.
However, today was not without gain because at least she knew the reason for thefor feud between the Taylors and the Lancasters. Her monitoring devices had also recorded all of that. When Elliot left, she could save the recording on the computer, and she believed that Henry would know what to do with that recording.
But Elliot...
Yvonne bit her lip and looked at the man on the balcony. Her eyes were full of entanglement. She wondered if what she did was right.
