Chapter 428 Chapter 428 The Greens Are in Trouble Sleep had eludedever since I spoke to Leonard the other day. I knew he was smart and had stricks up his sleeves. I had no idea what was happening with Jasper, but what good could cfrom a gambler? Thinking about all the hard work Alisa had put into the company over the years only mademore anxious.

Julian had remindedmore than once to focus on my recovery, but I just couldn't relax. I fainted again after another round of chemotherapy.

When I opened my eyes, Julian stood there, his eyes already showing signs of anger. "Eva, are you trying to kill yourself? I told you not to stress yourself out. What are you doing? In your current condition, you're on a fast track to meet the Grim Reaper!" I looked at him helplessly, letting out a sigh..

"Juls-" Julian rolled his eyes at me. "So, you callJuls when you need something but callDr. Pope when you don't? I'll handle things with Lisa. The Popes aren't pushovers. You can leave this to us." He hadn't toldmuch about Alisa's situation, but I knew things were not good if he was keeping quiet about it. I trusted Julian. I knew he would help. However, I was unsure whether the Pope family was willing to take on Leonard and the Harmon family, especially since Leonard remained a formidable competitor. Even if the Harmon family was in turmoil, other companies would still show them srespect.

I couldn't sleep, constantly wondering why Leonard was acting this way. His public declaration of wanting to remarryand his emotional displays had significantly changed public opinion. Did he truly believe he had to marryto turn things around for him? He could have gone about things differently. Why did he have to drag Alisa into it? "Juls, what about your family?" "Don't worry, my family will help." Julian's gaze was unwavering. "The Pope family has sinfluence. I'll take care of Lisa." "Juls, why does he insist on remarrying me? Won't that directly be in opposition to your family? Isn't that counterproductive?" This was something I could never figure out. Even if the Green family had fallen, they weren't a force to be trifled with. Leonard should know about Alisa and Julian's relationship. Why did he want to create another enemy? Julian sighed, adjusting my IV drip. "From what my dad said, Mr. Harmon Senior gave Luca 5% of the shares. Mr. Harmon Senior wants to change the heir, and everyone is watching this closely. Leonard is isolated, isn't he? "Without support, he'll have to fend for himself. If Mr. Harmon Senior isn't backing him, do you think the Harmon family's assets will still belong to him?" After Julian left, I couldn't stop thinking about the Harmon family. I didn't even notice when Jill cin. "What are you thinking about? Thinking about Jack?" "When did you get here?" I asked. I frowned as I looked at her, and she sulkily stuffed a strawberry into my mouth.

"You didn't even notice I was here, did you? Of course, you didn't. Don't be damo se mad. I cto give you a tip."

Jill glanced at the door, ensuring no one was listening before continuing, "Julian toldnot to tell you, but it seems something has gone wrong on Alisa's side. They've both gone to Melgrove. Something has happened at the headquarters." "What?" I quickly pulled out my phone, but she grabbed my hand.

"Just leave it! They're keeping things from you to avoid making you dsaid anxious. But my dad said it's strange. Several projects are targeting the Greens, which is out of the norm.

Keep your guard up, especially with Leonard. But man, you were really blind back then."
