Chapter 498 Killing Several Birds With One Stone
Braxton nodded. “I’ll go ask them why they tried to kidnap you.” Jennifer watched as Braxton questioned the kidnappers briefly.
A few minutes later, he came back to her with a grim expression on his face. “The kidnappers said you’re facing a capital chain crisis. The shareholders want to withdraw their investment, but you don’t have enough cash for them.”
Comprehension dawned on Jennifer. “Oh, I see. It was them who sent the kidnappers.” “Can I add you on WhatsApp? You can ask for help anytime. My name is Braxton Irving,” Braxton told her gently.
His voice and smile were as pleasant as the spring breeze. Jennifer didn’t spot the smug glint in the depths of his eyes.
Before coming here, Braxton had investigated Jennifer thoroughly. He knew Jennifer was Donald’s ex-wife. Donald adored her but had never touched her.
In other words, Jennifer was still a virgin. Most importantly, she was gorgeous and charming. It was rare to find someone as elegant as her in Jadeborough.
Besides dealing Donald with a blow, I get to sleep with her and get the thirteen car dealerships belonging to the Campbell clan for myself. Tyrone also owes me a favor this way. I get to kill several birds with one stone!
Braxton didn’t show any of his true colors despite thinking that way. Jennifer tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said, “You don’t have to help me. I need to treat you to a meal to thank you for saving me tonight. Otherwise, I don’t know what will happen to me.”
Her porcelain cheek and cute earlobe were exposed, and a seductive scent entered Baxton’s nostrils.
Braxton couldn’t hide his surprise. He had plenty of experience with women, but Jennifer’s nonchalant action still attracted him.
“Can I scan your QR code?” Braxton dug his phone out.
Jennifer bobbed her head and showed him her QR code on WhatsApp.
“I need to go now. We’ll chat through WhatsApp, yeah?” Braxton asked.
Jennifer nodded. “Sure. Bye!”
A luxurious Mercedes Pullman was parked beside the road. Braxton waved goodbye to Jennifer and got into his car.
Jennifer’s brows knitted together. Why does his name sound so familiar?
Realization struck her.
Oh, he’s Braxton Irving from Irving Group, also the chairman of Irving Capital!
She stared in the direction he left for some time before turning to leave.
In the dark, Yuna snorted. “What a fool. It’s obviously a setup so he can save the damsel in distress. Isn’t that obvious?”
Soon, the news reached Donald’s ears.
Yuna sent him a text: Lord Campbell, your most prominent rival has arrived. Braxton Irving is too handsome. Even I can’t help but find him hot. Your ex-wife is no exception, too.
Donald replied: Whatever.
If Braxton could seduce Jennifer easily, she wasn’t worthy of being with Donald.
Since he was young, his father told him that anything that could be taken away easily was worthless.
Yuna reported: The Irving family’s Octo Stella Warrior, Rosie Irving, follows him at all times to protect him. The Novem Stella Warrior from the Collins family, Nathan Collins, has arrived in Pollerton. He wants to meet you to thank you personally.
Donald replied: No.
They were busy chatting when he received a call from his grandfather, Raymond.
Donald’s brows scrunched up. Why is Grandpa calling me at this hour?
He answered the call and greeted, “Grandpa.”
“Come here. I need to talk to you,” Raymond’s raspy but cheerful voice rang out.
“Sure,” came Donald’s reply.
Half an hour later, he arrived at Raymond’s house.
He stepped in and saw Melanie chatting to Raymond.
Melanie got to her feet in an elegant manner when she saw Donald. “You’re back?”
You’re back? Why does she make it sound like this is her home?
Despite thinking that way, Donald didn’t reveal his true emotions. “Grandpa, you want to see me?”
