In Love, Never Say Never

In love, never say never chapter 901

Linda frowned at Rachel’s words. She didn’t know anything about the underground warehouse. Wanting to defend the Murphy Corporation, Linda opened her mouth, but she couldn’t think of anything to say because she witnessed all these before her eyes.

On the other hand, I remained silent before saying, “These are all larger-sized equipment. Are those that launched overseas smaller ones?”

Rachel rolled her eyes and pursed her lips while speaking in a disdainful manner. “Well, duh!”

Even so, I thought little about it and turned to Ashton. “What should we do now?”

The man scanned the items in the underground warehouse and made a decision. “Contact the reporters and lawyers. We’ll have to file a lawsuit against the Murphy Corporation.” Giving a cold look, he was emotionless when he said that.

Upon hearing his words, Linda started panicking. She stopped Ashton and tried to reason with him. “Mr. Fuller, aren’t you burning the bridge? Mr. Murphy is still locked up in Moranta. Shouldn’t you at least give him a chance to explain? This is way too sudden, and I believe Mr. Murphy doesn’t know about this. The architects and engineers were in charge of the construction, while he never took part. Maybe he was in the dark all along.”

I pursed my lips. If I didn’t go through the life-and-death situation in Moranta, I wouldn’t even know that Armond was a two-faced person or suspect that he was behind this. However, now that I knew what kind of person he was, I believed he had planned this for a long time.

At that moment, I was wondering if he was also behind my participation in the Fuller Corporation’s bidding. It would make sense if he had probably planned everything from the start. After all, the Murphy Corporation had been dominating the AI technology field, and it wasn’t a desirable outcome for them if Fuller Corporation’s AI technology rose to fame.

The man wanted to use this chance to gain benefit from the Fuller Corporation’s downfall. He was playing the long game.

Recalling the time I almost got into trouble in A City, my trust toward Armond was broken. To delay time, he even laid his hands on me and set Nora up. This man was way more scheming than we thought.

I said, “Linda, let’s leave that to the police, okay?” Everything that happened after I met Armond surfaced in my mind, and instantly, I felt the temperature dropped a few degrees.

The woman looked at me and stayed silent for a while. “Let me call old Mr. Murphy. This matter involves the entire Murphy family, so I have to inform him about this. I’m sorry, Scarlett, but the Murphys mean a lot to me.”

I nodded. “Alright. Go ahead.”

At the same time, the Murphys were in a frenzy at the moment. Hence, when Robert picked up the call, he directly asked Linda to handle the situation on-site. “I’ll leave it to you. Just try to minimize Murphy Corporation’s loss.”

Upon hearing his commands, Linda was stunned. Then, she nodded and said, “Okay.”

After hanging up, Linda looked miserable. She then glanced at me with a troubled expression. “Scarlett, tell me. What happened to the Murphys?”

I figured she didn’t know about the incident in Moranta. It was a lot, so I collected my thoughts before telling her. “The gas released from the chemical factory under the Murphy family in Moranta was carcinogenic, and Armond was involved in a murder case. That was why he couldn’t return to A City to take care of these matters. Furthermore, the police officers were now investigating the Murphys’ property, so old Mr. Murphy had his hands full with that, and he could only leave this to you.”

Linda was rather intelligent, so she knew someone was behind this. “Is the Fuller Corporation involved with the incident in Moranta?”

I didn’t intend to hide it. “The Murphy family wanted the import and export trading rights, but the Taylor family had passed the rights to Ashton. Armond then kidnapped Ashton and forced him to give it up. However, he failed, and the police officers are running an investigation on him.”

Upon hearing my words, Linda’s face was as pale as a sheet. Knitting her brows, she was at a loss for words.

Rachel glanced at Ashton with concern and turned to Linda. “It seems the Murphy Corporation doesn’t have boundaries as long as it makes them money.”

Hearing that, Linda stayed silent. After a long while, she looked at Ashton and said, “Mr. Fuller, I know I can’t hinder your decision, but I’ll do my best to protect Murphy Corporation’s project in A City.”

Ashton glanced at her before turning to Rachel. “Contact the reporters and lawyers.”

With that, he led me out of the base, and we walked all the way to his car.

In the car, I kept quiet for a long time. However, I failed to suppress my curiosity and blurted out, “Ashton, did you know there was an underground warehouse before?”

Although Rachel said that the back wall was damaged by accident because of the malfunction of the machines. However, Armond had made the area behind the base off-limits to anyone else. No one would drive the excavator to the back unless someone actually planned to enter from the back.

The man continued driving and kept his eyes on the road as he smiled. “I knew it ever since you told me there was something wrong with the structure.”

I pursed my lips. “Then why did you only expose it now?”

Upon that, he glanced sideways at me and explained, “If I expose him back then, he’ll only change his plans to oppose me. I needed time to find his flaws, so I went along with it. With this, I’ll know what he was going for.”

In love, never say never chapter 902

Seeing how he was looking at me while driving, I yelled, “Eyes on the road!”

After pausing for a bit, I continued, “You knew that Armond was going to set you up in Moranta. That was why you wanted to come back as soon as possible when you heard that he was heading there.”

The man nodded. “But I never expect him to take action so quickly.”

No wonder Armond was completely unbothered when he was making a bet with Abe in the casino. He knew the latter wasn’t his opponent. Thinking about Abe, I couldn’t help but ask, “Do you think that Abe’s really dead?”

The man pursed his lips. “According to the police report in Moranta, the corpse’s DNA matches with Abe’s.”

I was stunned by his words. “Armond actually killed Abe?”

It was way too sudden. I initially thought that Armond faked Abe’s death with a corpse to confuse us. However, I was too naïve. He actually killed his partner.
