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 fiancee.

What about me? I've been his childhood friend for so many years and hod 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'sjudgment.

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.

Over at Crawford Heights Group, Shawn swept the decorations on his table to the floor with his right hand in the

CEO's office. These items dropped to the floor and shattered into pieces.

What followed soon after was Shawn's screams. “Trash! Useless!

Contact the project leaders now! I want their explanation. They've been living in Alendor for so long, so why didn't

they consider these possible risks?”

Biting the bullet, Danny said with difficulty, “Mr. Crawford, I've contacted them already, but they won't pick up the

phone, choosing to extend their resignation instead."

“What?” Shawn clenched his jaw angrily. He connected the dots soon. “Did these people pocket the company's

money?”

Realization dawned on Shawn. No wonder the asking prices were sky-high. They were double the amount of those

offered by Farwell Group. I fell into the trap because I wonted to get the resources. Now I know why Lucian

competed with me for a period before suddenly giving up. Did he set me up?
