His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 206

Outside, the music was so deafening it could trigger a heart attack.

Inside the room, it was eerily silent.

In the dim light, Jareth was dressed in a sleek black suit, his silk shirt unbuttoned revealing a silver necklace that moved with his steady breathing. His long legs were casually crossed under his trousers, a glass of red wine in his hand.

A drop of red wine trickled down the corner of his mouth. He lazily wiped it away. His demeanor relaxed but his gaze cold and unwelcoming.

In the room, a line of Jareth’s men stood in the shadows

Jareth finished his wine and snapped his fingers.

The crowd of bodyguards dispersed, revealing a man tied up and beaten to a pulp on the floor.

“Mr. Jareth. I was wrong. The man’s speech was slurred, his teeth shattered, his words accompanied by drool and blood.

“Your blood’s staining my carpet

Jareth looked at the man with visible disgust, “Do you have any idea how expensive this carpet is? Even if I sold all your organs, you wouldn’t be able to compensate for it.”

“Mr. Jareth?”

The man crawled towards Jareth, only to be kicked away.

“Mr. Jareth, I’ve been loyal to you for years. I just made a mistake. It was Gary who threatened me! But he didn’t ask me to do anything just to report on your movements”

Gary was Jareth’s uncle

When Jareth was seven, his father died in a plane crash, leaving them in a difficult situation. Fortunately, his father had transferred all his shares and assets to them beforehand, preventing others from taking advantage of their vulnerability.

Now, the Fairhaven Group was under Barry’s control. Even though Jareth was the eldest grandson of the Fairhaven family, the position that should have been his father’s was taken by his uncle.
