Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 160

"What do you mean about my company?" I asked with a suppressed voice.

Could it be that the bankruptcy had nothing to do with him?

I've heard too many lies from Benjamin to believe him but now I somehow started to hesitate.

He had no reason to lie to me.

He humbly pleaded, "I just wanna see Emy."

I hung up the phone directly. I couldn't take Emy back to City B. I had to keep her in Ireland.

I couldn't risk losing her.

After Ellis finished his finals, I would let Diego take him back to City B, and Anthony would also come to Ireland.

I asked Anthony, "You're always alone in City B, or why don't you stay with us studying in Ireland?"

Anthony refused me. "There are advantages in City B."

Anthony stayed for a week before he left. According to him, he had his own arrangements and study.

After the summer vacation, Diego took Ellis back to Ireland. Ellis told me, "Benjamin asked me if Emy is beautiful and how tall she is, and if she can say the word 'dad'. I told him yes for the first two questions but not the last one.

Ellis shouldn't have been involved or caught between in all of this mess but I had no other choice.

After spending a year in Ireland, Emy had turned two years old. She could already talk and her own way of thinking. She could understand most of our words and was curious about everything that went on around her.

At that time, Ellis was in fifth grade. During the latter half a year, he went back to City B three times. He would stay with Benjamin for one week or two every time.

Hernando would come to Ireland about three or four times a week, staying at our house for about a month every time.

There was a big change in the year. The case in Glestin had gradually become clear as the evidence resurfaced. The contents of the flash drive pointed directly at Janse, and James led us to Victoria and Teresa.

After the New Year, I brought Emy, Ellis, and Anthony to travel around the world. I took Emy back into Ireland and Ellis and Anthony back to City B when it was summer.

After leaving City B for a year and a half, I felt lost and powerful at the same time when I set foot on this land again.

Diego sent Ellis back to Benjamin. I took Anthony directly back to the Shears house, and Anthony helped me carry my suitcase. I reached out and rubbed his head and asked, "What will you do during the summer vacation?"

"I'll wait for the results of SAT." Anthony's forehead was damp with sweat. He explained in a gentle voice, "I'll take some pre-college courses with Dr. Ashton after I file in my applications for colleges."

Actually, Anthony didn't have to file in at all. He had already been admitted to quite a few top colleges already. He took the SAT when we were traveling around the world. With his IQ, he really didn't have to spend too much time studying to get into the college he wanted to.

I asked with a smile, "Which college do you want to go to?"

Anthony walked into the villa with the suitcase in his hand and replied, "I'm not sure, somewhere done south, maybe. I'm thinking City S and City H now. I prefer City S. It's quiet there."

Anthony meditated for a while and said, "Then again, there's still a chance that I might go to City H."

I asked in surprise, "You're not planning to stay in City B?"

"City B is not suitable for people to live at all." Anthony licked his lips and said firmly, "Aunt, I want to go to a quiet city."

I smiled and said, "Well, it's up to you."

After having lunch with me, I drove him to the training center. I accompanied him at the training center for a while, waiting for Diego.

I said goodbye to Anthony and left. When I was in the car, Diego said, "Ellis had a photo of Emy with him. I think he might wanna give the photo to Mr. Dunn but I didn't stop him."

"Well, it's okay." I thought for a moment and then said, "Don't involve children in adults' matters. You don't have to report what Ellis does to me. He might be a kid but he knows what he's doing."

Diego replied, "Okay, I got it."

"How's the thing going recently?" I asked.

Diego explained, "Janse is currently locked up in the police station, and the Heaney sisters cannot be detained because of their family's power. I'm waiting for your permission. As long as you say so, I can proceed with the Dunns and Heaneys."

"How many shares does Benjamin have?" I asked.

"Ninety- three percent." Diego said in an admiring tone, "In two short years, he took over the Dunn family completely. Now, Mr. Dunn calls every shot around the Dunn family."

"What's the point of me having this 5%?" I reached out and rubbed my temples. Then I said, "This is the so-called gift from Joel? A lose-lose situation? How can I use my family to do a thing that will cause destruction to both sides? What's more, the Heaney family is sure that I won't use the Shears Group to do something like this! Joel is really too reckless. Since this is the case, what am I supposed to do now?"

"There's a lot you can do with 5%." Diego patiently explained, "Dunn family's business is huge, and 5% could be used to take a very harsh blow on them. What you need to decide is how you wanna play the next move."

I sighed and said, "Joel had spent so much money on this and he knew much of it is doomed to be wasted. Before we make a move on the Dunns, take care of the lackeys."

Diego asked, "As in the Heaneys and Solanges?"

I shook my head and asked, "Is the Solange family in the hands of Sean now?"

"Janse is detained for the time being, so, yes."

"Since that's the case, we won't touch the Solange family. After all, Sean has never done anything harmful to me... First, dump the shares of the Heaney family, and then take away all the capital injection to the Heaney family. Pay the compensation with the money we get from selling the shares." I drew out a piece of paper, wrote down Teresa's name, handed it to Diego, and said, "If the Heaney family wants to save themselves, they have to give us Teresa. As long as they remove Teresa from the family, as long as they drive Teresa away from the Heaney family and let her taste the feelings of being betrayed by her relatives, I am willing to spare the Heaney family."

"You are giving a way out for the Heaney family." Diego asked doubtfully, "Why are you letting Victoria out of this?"

"Diego, playing catch has just begun. What's the fun in dealing with it once and for all? The most important thing is to let the sisters of Heaney family experience the feeling that they are desperate and can't do anything to save themselves... That's exactly what they did to me!"

I paused for a while and said coldly, "Besides, if they choose the latter, it will be good for the Shears Group. I'm just using the most peaceful way to deal with them. When Teresa is down, the next one will be Victoria. None of them can escape!"

"It's a well-thought-out plan," Diego replied.

"Don't flatter me. I don't accept it," I said with a smile.

Diego's expression suddenly became hesitant. "Just spit out what's on your mind," I said, amused.

"Mr. Dunn invited you to dinner."
