Chapter 551 The Chow Family and Princess Anna
They got insider information that Alfred’s biological mother was in contact with Isabel.
Isabel should be on Alfred’s side now, but still, she took away Vanessa and her children. Georgia couldn’t figure out why.
“I’m going to call her.”
Alfred gave Isabel a call silently.
“Mrs. Chow, this is Alfred. We had a deal that you’ll help me if I help you. I also promised that I’ll give back all the shares to you guys once you guys found the Chow’s family lost bloodline. I will leave the Chow family and not bring anything monetary with me. So, why are you doing this to me?”
Isabel didn’t think that she would be found out so soon. She didn’t think that the investigation could lead directly to her.
She was in Svero now and Princess Anna was right next to her.
She stood up and walked towards the Balcony. She said to Alfred.
“I believe you, but Old Mr. Chow doesn’t. We had a verbal agreement. Nobody knows who will betray who first. We’re talking assets worth hundreds of billions. Who knows if you’re really going to give the shares to my child when the time comes? That’s why Old Mr. Chow told me to do this. I won’t hurt Vanessa and your child. I just moved them to somewhere that I have control over. Old Mr. Chow thinks that he won’t have leverage if you’re the one holding them hostage. He’s not reassured. But don’t worry, they are safe and sound.”
Alfred punched the wall. The expression on his face turned grim.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
“This is not what we agreed on. A desperate dog will bite. Mrs. Chow, don’t force me to pull something crazy. Give Vanessa and my child back to me. Otherwise, I won’t continue working together with Princess Anna.”
Isabel warned him immediately.
“Do you need me to remind you that your wife and your son are on my hands? If you don’t do what we agreed on, then I’ll kill them. Alfred, you know me. I can’t find my child, I don’t care about my husband. I don’t have anyone close to me anymore. I’m not afraid of you. But you, on the other hand, have people you still care about. Let’s make a bet to see who’s more heartless.”
“I hope that you remember that your wife is not mentally stable right now. She’s unconscious right now and your son is not even a year old. Don’t throw your straw against the wind. Come back to Svero immediately and go on with your marriage with Princess Anna. Princess Anna is furious right now. I kidnapped your wife and child to make her happy. She originally wanted to kill them because she didn’t want her future husband to have a wife and children behind her back, even though you’re just her husband on paper. I discussed it with her and we decided to just hide them away for now. It’s best that I have the hostages under my watch.”
Isabel then hung up the call. Alfred punched the wall several times.
Georgia heard and saw everything. Alfred’s fists were bleeding. She walked over and said frigidly.
“What did Isabel say? Why did she kidnap Vanessa and her child? What kind of agreement did you guys make?”
Alfred looked at Georgia with a painful expression in his eyes. He then laughed hysterically.
“I was too arrogant. I thought I have everything under control. You already knew that I’m not actually part of the Chow’s family. And the truth is, Isabel knew about this too. Not long after you found out
about this, Isabel found out as well. Back then, Old Mr. Chow didn’t know about this yet. Isabel begged me to not let him find out because once the cat’s out of the bag, nobody around her would be eligible to inherit the assets. Then, the power, influence and money that the Chow family owns will go to the second wife.”
“She promised to let me be with Vanessa and let me go once she found her child. She will also forgive me for faking my identity. But I got greedy. I trusted her when she said that she would invest in my business and give me some capital. That she would support me with the Chow family’s power. I know that there’s no way my business would take off without capital and power. I didn’t want to lose everything, so I stupidly believed them. Only me and Isabel should know about this, but not long before this happened, the second wife’s son, Dickson’s identity was exposed.”
“He wasn’t the son of the Chow family. Old Mr. Chow was extremely furious after finding out about this, but the shares were already in Dickson’s hand. He had a lot of power in the Chow family and had a lot of connections. That’s why Old Mr. Chow put his hope on me. But when Isabel found out about Dickson, she told Old Mr. Chow the truth about me. She told me that Dickson would sooner or later find out about this, so we told Old Mr. Chow the truth first. Then, we worked together with Old Mr. Chow and hid the truth about my background. This way, nobody can threaten me with it and even if it’s exposed, Old Mr. Chow will back me up.”
“But Dickson already holds a lot of power in the Chow family, Old Mr. Chow can’t just ask him to leave. I then promised Isabel that once she found her lost child, I would give them back the shares. This is so that they wouldn’t hurt Vanessa and my child. They agreed. But then, I also gathered myself some manpower and some influence throughout the years. The Chow family has no influence over them, and I think this is the reason why they are wary of me.”
“I thought I can manage everything properly. To fight Dickson, they asked Princess Anna of Svero to cooperate with them. Princess Anna has her own struggles in her country, hence it’s in her best interest
to work with us. Both sides would benefit from this cooperation, but to consolidate this agreement, we decided that marriage was the most suitable option. This way, the king of Svero would have more trust and faith in Princess Anna. Princess Anna wants the throne, she wants to inherit Svero’s wealth. She wants to prove that she’s capable and hence she decided to work with us.”
“I know that Vanessa wouldn’t like this, that was why I lied to her. I told her that it’s dangerous and she must hide somewhere. Once Old Mr. Chow and I get rid of Dickson, and Princess Anna gets the throne, I will go back to Vanessa’s side. But what I never thought that before my battle with Dickson started, Old Mr. Chow and Isabel betrayed me first. They didn’t trust me.”
“So, you’re saying that right now they will tell you where Vanessa is, only after you get rid of Dickson, or Isabel manages to find her lost child. Am I right?”
Alfred nodded. Elsie slapped him harshly on the face.
“I don’t know why my sister loves you. She cursed to have met you. I’m telling you, Alfred, you don’t deserve my sister. Once we found her, I’m not going to let you get close to her anymore.”
After that, Elsie yanked Georgia’s hand and whispered to her in the corner.
“What should we do now? Is it possible to find out where Isabel is hiding my sister? I don’t think they will keep her safe.”
