Chapter 825 You'll Give Us Your Blessing, Won't You?
Alec, meanwhile, had gone to meet Zeke to talk to him about the breakup with Blake.
"I didn’t feel like we were compatible after some time together. That's why I chose to do
it," Alec explained.
Though it was just a way to placate them, and they both knew the real reason why, Zeke
still didn't point it out. ’I see. Might as well save everyone some time, hm."
"Yes. Thank you for understanding.' Alec gave him a bow out of respect.
The two conversed briefly for several more minutes, with Alec reporting how the company
was doing and getting the old man's approval before he finally left.
Zeke immediately dropped his polite mask afterward.

appeared behind him.
The butler gave it some thought, then said, "Probably because he doesn't think he needs
the Watkins" help to become family head."
No one had any idea where he got that confidence from.
"I doubt it. Do you really think the Watkins would call off their deal with Alec just because
they broke up with one of their many children?"
The butler nodded in understanding, saying nothing in return.
After a moment, Zeke said, "For some reason, I'm starting to wonder if I made the right
choice."
His butler was surprised to hear that. "Do you find Alec hard to control?"
"Yes. He's not easily manipulated." Had he placed his family at risk by letting Alec return?
"Are you sure you're not overthinking things, sir? So long as you never let him, Alec would
never be able to succeed as family heir even if he did accomplish great feats." It's not like
the kid could force Mr. Faust, right?
Zeke nodded in agreement, still asking, 'No word from Xavier and Yakov yet?"
"I believe they're working together, sir. They should be launching their plans soon. Can't
really let Alec become head of the family, can they?" the butler replied.
"Let's give them a boost then. Better to eradicate the outsider soon." Now that Zeke had
accomplished his plan, there was no reason to keep Alec around anymore.
Things would only spiral out of his control if he did.
The butler nodded. "Very well, sir."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJenny went to work as usual at Bardoff Hospital, though this time, most of her colleagues
had now changed their perception toward her.
She was surprised to see McKenna walking hand in hand with Derrick, however. She hadn't
imagined those two would get together, especially now that McKenna knew just what kind
of jackass Derrick was.
The couple was surprised to see Jenny, though they shared different thoughts.
Derrick still regretted not winning Jenny over, of course. His future would've been
guaranteed otherwise. He didn't let McKenna know of this, however, lest she made
another scene.
McKenna on the other hand, was beaming like a lighthouse on a misty morning. "Derrick
and I are officially dating now, Dr. Walter. You'll give us your blessing, won't you?"
