Chapter 1720
Could this mysterious figure be Nora? Skyler had no clue.
Zavier said, “Grandpa, if it turns out everything was her doing, I won’t go easy on her. You better brace yourself.”
“I’ve allowed them to showcase their talents without turning on each other. If it comes to light that she’s
responsible for both incidents…” Hudson paused, as if steeling himself for what he had to say next, “then what
must be done, will be done.”””
Zavier nodded, “Grandpa, that’s all I needed to hear.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHudson continued, “The butler might be back soon. Best you take Skyler and leave now.”
“I wanted to stay and have dinner with you,” Zavier said.
“Not today. When you find out the real culprit, take over Rivera Inc., and have the ability to make everyone
acknowledge you, then come and have a meal with me.” Hudson replied.e2
Zavier knew now was not the time to reveal that he and Hudson were putting on an act. He stood up, “Come on,
Scaredy-cat, let’s go.”
Skyler got up too, “Take care, Grandpa. We’ll head out now.”
Impatiently, Hudson waved them off, “Go on. Get outta here. Having you youngsters around is like a non-stop racket
in my ears.” As Zavier and Skyler walked away, Hudson felt a twinge of comfort but then remembered something
crucial. “Zavier, leave by a different route. There were cameras in th house. You can’t be caught together.”
“Don’t worry. No one knows the surveillance system better than me,” Zavier assured him.
The thought of his beloved grandson having to sneak around his own home, unable to openly share a meal, pained
Hudson deeply. “Zavier, I’m sorry.”
“Grandpa, you taught me when I was very young not to punish myself for someone else’s mistakes. I remember it
well. How could you forget?” Zavier said with a small smile.
Hudson smiled back, satisfied, “Alright then, off you go.”
Not wanting to linger, Zavier led Skyler to the front door. “I’ll leave through a side exit. Have the driver take you out
of the villa, and I’ll wait for you outside the compound.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSkyler nodded, “Okay.”
The driver, a loyal confidante of Hudson’s, took Skyler out of the estate. As they left, a car was parked ahead. “Miss
Skyler, you should switch to Zavier’s car now.”
“That’s Zavier’s ride?” Skyler asked, surprised.
Zavier’s usual choice was a sports car, and the family’s garage was filled with luxury brands. The car in front of her
was a nondescript sedan, likely not worth more than twenty thousand.
The driver confirmed, “Yes.”
Skyler hurriedly got out and into Zavier’s car. Once she was settled, Zavier floored the accelerator, and the sedan
shot forward, but they weren’t heading towards school.
