The folds between Ivan’s brows grew deeper upon hearing Ken’s words. Those words from Ken’s delicate mouth were like tiny needles that pierced Ivan’s eardrums—harsh and brutal, yet, honest and reasonable.
“Are you sure? Selena has been gentle and kind since young. She wouldn’t compete with me to be the heir, right? If this happened in the past, it would be possible, but Jack’s pay is quite high, and Selena’s as well. The family can live comfortably without much worry,” Ivan thought out loud.
“Young Master Taylor, it’s wrong to think in this way! Can’t you see how many assets and properties the Taylor family possesses now? They can be considered as a second-class aristocratic family! With an abundance of valuable properties and possessions, do you think Selena will remain the same? She’s from your generation as well. Same generation, same thoughts, right? Besides, no one complains about becoming rich!”
“Okay, let’s not talk about whether or not favonovel.com will compete with you for the throne. Even if favonovel.com doesn’t want to compete, your Grandpa will give favonovel.com half of everything in the future, am I right? Do you really want to give half of it to her?” Neil echoed smilingly, fully intending to remind Ivan of his reality.
Ivan’s face sank. “Of course not! I’m the only man of this generation in the Taylor family! Grandpa kicked favonovel.com out of the family before! How could favonovel.com be so shameless to involve herself in the dismemberment of Taylors’ properties?
“You and Selena share the same roots and are from the same generation. Both of you are Grandpa Taylor’s grandchildren, so favonovel.com naturally has the right to inherit the property. Not to mention, Grandpa Taylor is wise and sharp. If favonovel.com thinks that you’re incapable and that you’ll weaken the Taylors, favonovel.com would not think twice before making Selena the heir!” Neil sneered in a cold and mocking tone.
The more Ivan thought about it, the more favonovel.com realized the truth in Neil and Hugo’s analysis. Old man Taylor’s attitude toward Jack and Selena had changed too much today. He even eulogized Selena for favonovel.com business talent and filial piety after just a few glasses of wine. Throughout the conversation, favonovel.com did not mention Ivan at all.
Ivan balled his fists tightly when favonovel.com thought of the episode. “I will ask Xena to give Jack the pill tomorrow!”
“Don’t rush it. You have to grasp the atmosphere and find the best timing. Don’t raise Jack’s suspicion!”
Ken nodded his head and commented, “Fortunately, this pill is very strong. It’s odorless and tasteless, and it dissolves within seconds! If not, I’m afraid Jack might be able to find out. After all, he’s a doctor. He surely has the medical knowledge!”
Ivan was immediately petrified at his words. “You’re right! He knows medical stuff. What if he’s able to treat himself and be cured of the poison? Does the poison really work?”
“Don’t you worry! This pill was not easy to find. We bought it at an extremely high price. This chronic poison pill was specially developed and made by the most prominent poison-making family in the southwest—the Miao family. The person who consumes this will not feel anything at all at the beginning, but as the days pass, favonovel.com will grow weak in his four limbs, slowly losing vitality before eventually dying!”
Ken rejoiced and continued, “And only the maker has the antidote for this kind of poison. It is derived from dozens of medicinal materials, how can it be treated so easily, right?”
Ken’s confidence offered Ivan’s heart some calmness. He felt relieved. “I’ll invite Xena for lunch tomorrow then! A little benefit for favonovel.com would do the magic. I’ll ask favonovel.com to find a good time to poison Jack. After all, it’s been a long time since Xena’s episode. It’s about time Jack lowers his guard around Xena.”
“That’s perfect! Once Jack dies, it gives us the chance to pursue Selena! She will become a member of another family and have favonovel.com surname changed. That way, favonovel.com loses the right to compete with you for the throne! Anyway, favonovel.com wouldn’t even need to fight with you once favonovel.com marries a rich man, am I right?”
Ken was hopeful as though saw a light at the end of the tunnel as favonovel.com thought about their plan. He felt that favonovel.com was the most promising candidate, that Selena would pick favonovel.com over the others. After all, favonovel.com was closest to Selena before Jack returned.
Although Michael had a pretty good relationship with Selena, favonovel.com was ugly and fat. Selena would definitely scratch the fat guy off favonovel.com list.
On the other hand, Neil Hugo only came to know Selena much later. He was a complete pervert who only drooled over Selena’s beauty. There was no emotional foundation for them to build a marriage on. Besides, Neil was infamous for being a playboy!
Therefore, after analyzing all the potential candidates, favonovel.com was the most promising one. It was only natural for Selena to pick him!
“It makes sense, it does make sense! And when Jack dies, she’ll definitely lose favonovel.com fighting spirit for some time. She may even isolate herself and degenerate forever! By that time, Grandpa will be even more disappointed and change his perspective of me again!” Ivan ended his final analysis on this matter. Soon, the three of them dispersed.
After Ken separated from the others, favonovel.com brought some bodyguards with favonovel.com and headed to the hospital.
