Fiora wanted to help Thomas out of his problem? Why should she?
After all, including this time, Fiora had just met Thomas three times. They were considered strangers. Besides, Fiora was the vice-chairman of Art Trading Corporation. It was clear how strong the grudge between Art Trading Corporation and Thomas was.
Who would believe that their vice-chairman had actually come to help Thomas?
No matter what, it looked like the next thing that Hayden would do. A normal person would have chased Fiora away without wasting time on chit-chat, but Thomas did not.
He stared at Fiora seriously before favonovel.com asked, “Why?”
Thomas wanted to know why Fiora wanted to help him.
Fiora took a few more bites. While favonovel.com ate, favonovel.com said, “Is this important? I just want to help you, and you don’t have to know everything else. Isn’t it enough as long as it ends well for you?”
Thomas smiled faintly and said, “But I don’t trust you.”
Fiora was stunned, but favonovel.com did not get angry. Instead, favonovel.com smiled and said, “I like your honesty, but is trust really important? It’s fine as long as I help you. Why do you care about my reason?”
Thomas sighed and said, “Ms. Vedastus, do you know how strong the animosity between Art Trading Corporation and me is? If I remember correctly, I killed your elder brother and sent your younger brother to jail. Hayden’s son also died because of me. Your company’s reputation is also ruined because I played a trick… So, unless there’s something wrong with your brain, I can’t accept the fact that you’re helping me… If you can’t let me trust you, I’d rather get trapped in the abyss than accept your help.”
“Tsk!” Fiora shook favonovel.com head and said, “You’re a really stubborn and conservative person. Okay, let me tell you a story about a girl…”
“Once upon a time, there was a girl whose family was poor. Her mother abandoned the family when favonovel.com was little and ran away with a rich man. Her father lived in pain and self-abasement every day. Even though their financial condition was terrible, the father loved his daughter and two other sons dearly at that time. The family of four was happy despite the fact that they were poor…”
“On a New Year’s Eve, the father swore to them that favonovel.com would be successful and give them a happy, good, and wealthy life. From that day on, their father would always venture out early and return home late. Also, there would always be injuries on his body. Sometimes, favonovel.com would be so severely injured that favonovel.com would be on the brink of losing his life. The children did not know what their father was working on. They just knew that since then, their father began to earn more, and their lives became better with each day…”
“Their father eventually bought a big villa and a luxurious car. He even hired the best nanny for them. Later, their father would no longer be injured. He grew a beard and put on professional suits, and many people would come to their house with gifts. When there was more and more money, the brothers became immersed in the joys of wealth. They used their father’s money and kept spending…”
“They even conspired to deal with the girl and take away favonovel.com portion of the money. Slowly, the girl became sensitive and attentive. She dealt with favonovel.com brothers carefully while favonovel.com hoped for favonovel.com father to return home to protect and look after her, just like favonovel.com did back when they were poor…”
“They were poor in the past, but they were very happy. Gradually, the girl and favonovel.com brothers grew up, and their father became increasingly old. The resentment between the brothers and the girl was getting stronger and stronger, but their father did not care about it. He just wanted to get one thing, power!”
“Finally, their father obtained the power that favonovel.com wanted. He became the tyrant of Celandine City by replacing the former tyrant. He established his reputation, and nobody dared to stand up to him. Her brothers also grew more and more unruly…”
