Mission To Remarry

CHAPTER 1874 A TRAP

Frostiness gradually appeared in Elektra's eyes. She cursed at her foolishness.

I can't even compare to Aubree. At least Aubree was once in an intimate relationship with Lucian, being his fiancée. What about me? I've been his childhood friend for so many years and had many chances to make him mine, but I've lost all of them. I want to know what Lucian truly thinks of his feelings for Roxanne! Is it love? Or is it because she has improved so much in her capabilities? Roxanne was worthless six years ago, so she got abandoned by Lucian. But now, she owns a research institute, hospital, company, and Flora Verba Group. Does that mean Lucian's love for her was built on her improvement in becoming a successful person? Does that mean Lucian will look at me in a different light if I become a powerful woman and take over Flora Verba Group?

Elektra was overwhelmed by a myriad of emotions as different thoughts appeared in her mind.

Lucian took it upon himself to do everything when the wedding preparations began. He chose the venue, the outfits, and the band and even came up with the list of guests. Moreover, the man even suggested inviting celebrities to their wedding. After all, many top stars in the entertainment industry were part of Lucian's social circle.

Yet, Roxanne gave a firm no. She didn't want their wedding to be headline-worthy news. If that happened, information about their three kids would be exposed to the public, causing them to be under public scrutiny.

With Lucian's full attention on the upcoming wedding, company-related matters became Jonathan and Cayden's responsibility. Jonathan was mainly tasked with the strategy part, while Cayden controlled the execution of their plan. Their current goal was to compete with Crawford Heights Group for the Alendor market.

Alendor was known for its plentiful resources of minerals. It was the raw material base for various non-ferrous metals. If one could get their hands on this place, they would enjoy greater power in developing these areas.

Since their last failure in the foreign trade market in Epea, Crawford Heights Group placed heavy investment this time. Their bidding price was higher than Farwell Group's every time. In an instant, Crawford Heights Group had the upper hand.

However, Jonathan didn't panic, for every time he reported these findings to Lucian, the latter would ask him to wait longer, and Jonathan believed in Lucian's judgment.

As expected, Crawford Heights Group ran into trouble one week later. Chaos broke out at the mineral production area that they bought at a high price, and a war ensued. What was troubling, though, was that the war ended peacefully within days. The newly-appointed leader overturned the original trade agreement, claiming it was invalid. In other words, Crawford Heights Group's investment had all gone to waste.
