Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

The handlers nodded and left, but returned to Franklin in less than a few minutes' time: "Mr. James, their men were

always near the lady, in front and at the side door, with cars parked outside."

Franklin frowned tightly and was about to say something when Darnell came up to him.

Both sides just one look, they know each other have something to say.

Franklin gestures to his men to protect Elaine, and leads Darnell into the study.

Darnell spoke lightly, "I have something to tell you."

Franklin's head felt big as he listened to the "you".

He sat at the desk and did put up a front: "Just in time, I have something I want to say to you too."

Darnell sat across from him, "As I said before, as long as you leave with Elaine, I won't see her again."

Franklin wasn't surprised he started this way, but simply said, "You regret it?"

"Hmm."

Franklin: "......"

At the word, Franklin's temples twitched uncontrollably.

He originally wanted to deliberately humiliate Darnell, but did not expect him to answer so quickly.

Darnell continues, "In two years, I can handle everything on this side of Riverside City."

"You don't have to tell me this, I always knew that what you wanted was never Riverside City, and even if Elaine

returns to Riverside City in two years and stays with you, can you guarantee that she won't be in any other danger

after that."

Darnell said, "I can't guarantee that."

Franklin's face changed: "You ......"

"But I will protect her with my life."

Hearing this, Franklin calmed down a little more: "Why should I trust you this time, you have no credibility left with

me."

Darnell spoke calmly and slowly: "You have no other choice but to trust me."

Franklin's face changed slightly, but did not retort.

He's powerless to pull Elaine out of the Riverside City mess now, but Darnell can.

Darnell continued, "What do you want to tell me."

Franklin handed a file bag to Darnell: "Inside are all the assets in my name, which were transferred to Elaine some

time ago, but I can't give these to her directly, so when she leaves, you give them to her for me."

Darnell didn't pick up: "I said I'd let you leave with her."

Franklin got up and walked to the window: "It's just that, even if I take her away with me, how long can I stay with

her, the James family situation is changing, with me in they will still restrain a point, once I leave, Caesar will

immediately incite them, I know you are not afraid, but I do not want Riverside I know you're not afraid, but I don't

want Riverside City to fall victim to your struggle."

After a silent moment he added: "Elaine is right, this is our home, we always have to come back, and I have my

share of responsibilities."

Darnell's thin lips are pursed and silent.

Franklin turned his head to look at him and added: "You're right, I only have the choice to trust you now, so you

can't make a single step wrong, what Riverside City becomes in the future is in your hands, this is your

grandfather's last wish and my last wish for you. I hope that when Elaine returns to Riverside City, she will not be in

any danger."

Darnell looked up at him, "You've made your decision."

Franklin said, "You take Elaine away right now, and whatever happens to me, wait until after you leave before you

tell her."

As he spoke, he added: "Elaine is devoted to you, even if you don't like her anymore, don't hurt her. Elaine's

grandfather left her a place in City B. If you ever don't want to see her anymore, you can send her there and

someone will take care of her."

Darnell nodded gently, in a late-bloomer gesture.

At this time, downstairs once again noisy.

Franklin said, "Go down and take Elaine with you."

In the hall, Caesar's figure slowly appeared.

Even though the James family people know that he is still alive and even the money chain behind Carl, but others do

not know, they only know that he is the James family traitor and also once tried to kill those people of the James

family.

Caesar appeared and ignored the flurry of chatter, but walked purposefully up to Elaine and spoke with a smile,

"Elaine, we meet again."

Elaine took two guarded steps back and subconsciously uttered, "Uncle Caesar ......"

Caesar smiled even more, "I thought you'd stop calling me that."

Elaine snapped back and bit her lower lip, "What are you ...... doing here today?"

"Today is your father's birthday, how can I not come?"

Elaine could never forget that he had threatened her that if she left Riverside City, the next time she would return

would be for her father's funeral.

So she lost her filter for this "Uncle Caesar" and got a little angry and said, "You're not welcome here, my dad ......"

Caesar laughed out loud at the article, "Elaine, it looks like you care about your dad."

Elaine frowned, thinking his words were underhanded and conspiratorial.

Caesar turned around and looked at the crowd: "Guys, I think for a question that we've all been curious about for a

long time is how my big brother Franklin's wife, Elaine's mother, actually died."

At these words, the whole audience was stunned.

Elaine's mother, who died shortly after she was born, died of what they always claimed to be an illness.

At first, some people thought there was something strange in it, there was no news of her being sick at all, and

when she gave birth to Elaine, there were people who saw her in the hospital, and she seemed to be in good shape.

So not many people believed the news of her death after a long illness.

But as Elaine grew older and Franklin became a father and mother, doting on her, no one doubted the matter

anymore.

But now such an old story is suddenly brought up by Caesar, can there really be any hidden agenda in between?

Elaine also froze there, she had no memory of her mother as a person, and had never even seen a picture of her at

home.

She thought that it was her dad who looked sad and that's why she put it away.

What exactly does ...... mean?

Meanwhile, Franklin and Darnell came down from the second floor and said coldly, "Caesar, shut the hell up!"

Caesar laughed: "What's wrong, why don't you dare let me talk about it, afraid I'll explode your scandal?"

Franklin ignored her and instead said to Elaine in a hushed tone, "Elaine, come here."

Elaine just took a step, Caesar said: "Elaine, don't you want to know, how your mother died? It took me a lot of work

to find out."

Elaine clenched her fists, ignored him, and ran in stride toward her dad.

Caesar stood still, his hands behind his back, his voice raised a few notches: "Elaine, standing over there, not your

father, but the murderer, he killed your mother!"
