Ian stared at his newly-married wife in disbelief. The Wallace Company was acquired by the Yard Group? Isla was sent by the Yard Family?

Isla didn’t seem to understand what was going on, asking with a puzzled expression, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

Lucy stared at Isla’s fake expression intently. “From the beginning, the Yard Group planned to take over the Edwards Group. Aside from the surface interference by the Yard siblings, another group of people infiltrated the Edwards Group in advance. And, you’re one of them.”

Lucy had investigated everything a long time ago. The Yard Family sent many people into the Edwards Group. There were two groups in total—one was sent by Callum and Cade while the other was sent by Henry and Ryan. Whilst both groups were slowly eroding the Edwards Group from the inside, they were simultaneously fighting against each other too. Henry and Ryan’s methods were the most obvious. After they got rid of Lucy, they openly entered the Edwards Group. Most of their people had infiltrated the key departments within the Edwards Group by then. Isla Wallace, the young mistress of the Edwards Group, was a prime example.

Contrary to Henry and Ryan’s expectations, Callum’s men began creating strife as soon as they took over. It brought chaos to the Edwards Group, causing the board of directors and the shareholders to be extremely dissatisfied with Henry and Ryan. That was when Callum and Cade were supposed to step in, under the guise of cleaning up after the mess caused by their younger brothers. At the same time, they took the opportunity to kick their younger brothers out of the company.

However, they did not account for Lucy’s return. The fight between the four Yard brothers benefited her, in the end. After her return, she started removing and weakening the Yard Family’s spies, one by one. The first to go was Ian’s wife, Isla Wallace. Lucy was willing to use any means to kick Isla out of her key position.

As Isla was not very successful at her job, Henry and Ryan were very dissatisfied with her. Still, nobody could have expected that they would be willing to sabotage their own people during their fits of insanity. Just because Ian kicked them once, they decided to rape Isla as a consequence.

Lucy explained everything right in front of Ian. “Isla, I know you are not happy working under the Yard Family. You only wanted to get rid of me through Henry. Then, you wanted to gain control over the Edwards Group through Ian. Unfortunately, you did not expect me to survive. Too bad, because I’m here today to take your life for both private and work reasons. So, just stop struggling.”
