Chapter 852 No Ordinary Person

In the face of Evan's mockery, Alec was unfazed. He approached Evan because he had

something to discuss with him and not to argue or pick a fight.

After Evan was done speaking, Alec asked, "Does it matter which fool it is? What matters

is whether they'll cause you trouble, don't you think?"

Evan frowned and stared at Alec for a while before smiling. "What are you trying to say?"

Alec wouldn't approach him for no reason. There must be a purpose behind his action; he

couldn't have come up to him simply for an idle chat.

"Why don't you help me deal with Xavier?" Alec smiled, and from his tone, it sounded

more like he wanted to discuss the matter rather than ask him a favor.

Evan was surprised by Alec's words. He looked at him for a while, and after confirming

that Alec wasn't joking, he couldn't help but laugh. "What makes you think I would help

you? Besides, it's Luke who's in my way now, not his father. Aren't you taking me for a fool

by asking me to deal with Xavier?"

It was Luke who was pestering Jenny. If anything, Alec should be asking him to take action

against Luke, not Xavier. Evan wouldn't lend a hand if Alec were purely trying to use him

to deal with the Fausts, who posed a threat to him.

Alec wasn't worried about Evan's questioning, he continued, "Luke doesn't have much say

within the Fausts. Even if you deal with him, it won't be effective. There will be other

Fausts who'll look for trouble with you after you get rid of him. Therefore, it's unnecessary.

It's Xavier and Yakov who are currently in the running for the position to become the head

of the Faust family. As for Luke and Julian, they’re still young, so it's not their turn yet."

Evan understood the reasoning, but he wasn't keen on assisting Alec." Even so, I won't

help you with Xavier. On top of that, you're overestimating me. I'm just an ordinary

person. How would I have the ability to deal with the Fausts?"

As he spoke, he looked at Alec and felt he seemed to know something. But upon careful

consideration, it was unlikely. Ever since Evan returned to the country, he'd been very

cautious. Alec wouldn't have any reason to be suspicious of him.

"An ordinary person?" Alec chuckled lightly. "How could the famous mercenary leader from

overseas be an ordinary person? You're too modest, Mr. Clarke."

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Evan's expression changed drastically, and

he stared at Alec intently. "How did you know?"

"Is it anything difficult? One just needed to spend some money to get someone to do

some digging overseas."

Of course, the truth was that obtaining information on Evan was not a simple task at all.

Evan wasn't a fool, so he naturally kept information about him hidden. Nevertheless, as

long as one paid the right price, no information couldn't be uncovered.

Alec had been quite lucky. When Evan first appeared, he had someone investigate him

right away. However, he couldn't find any information, which made him realize that Evan's

identity was not simple. After all, most people wouldn't need to hide their information.

Hence, he spent a lot of money to uncover Evan's true identity. While he was quite

surprised, he also made plans upon finding it out. So, when he appeared in front of Evan

that day to discuss a collaboration, it was not an impulsive decision. Alec had prepared for

it long ago.

Evan was displeased about this. He knew how difficult it was to uncover any information

that pointed to his identity, and since Alec had managed to do so, it meant that he'd

definitely spent a lot of time on it.

He couldn't figure out why Alec would investigate him when they hadn't had much

interaction. Therefore, he asked Alec about it, wanting to know what his answer would be.
