Chapter 697: Do You Hate Him That Much?
After cleaning up the spilled soup with care, Lucia exited the master bedroom. Overwhelmed with emotions, she could no longer contain her tears and began to sob.
She had been the young lady of the Kyte family for so many years and had never done such things.
Lucia went back to the servants' quarters and dialed Dora's number, hoping she could offer a solution.
However, the phone rang for an extended period without any response, causing Lucia's heart to grow colder with each ring.
Lucia never would have fathomed that Dora was currently in the embrace of an older man. Referred to as an old man due to his advanced age compared to Blake, he was none other than Blake's uncle, Percy Kyte.
If Blake had witnessed this sight, he likely would have been consumed with anger, perhaps even to the point of violence.
Percy, contentedly holding Dora, lit a cigarette.
Though Dora was a bit older, she had the charm of a mature woman. He even thought she suited his taste better than those young girls.
"Uncle Percy, when do you plan to make a move against Blake?" Dora asked sweetly, nestled in Percy's arms.
Dora still called Percy "uncle." Initially, she found this term repulsive, but Percy, as if he was out of mind, insisted she call him that.
After the cigarette, Percy chuckled and remarked, "Why the haste? The Kyte Group isn't solely Blake. I must reach out to others first to guarantee success, correct?"
Percy also worked at the Kyte Group and was a board member. His lifelong goal was to oust Blake and take the chairman's position for himself.
However, he had never had the opportunity before.
When Dora approached him with a collaboration proposal, Percy was pleasantly surprised and felt that his goal finally had a chance of being realized.
"The Roberts family is interested in collaborating with you. Do you want to meet them?" Dora suggested. Today, her main goal was to establish contact between the two parties.
Given Percy's abilities, who knew how long it would take for him to deal with Blake on his own.
Short on time and unwilling to delay, Dora opted to involve the Roberts family. With both internal and external forces combined, she was confident they could effectively address the situation with Blake.
Percy pondered for a long time before finally nodding, "Alright, the Roberts family is your family, so I trust you."
This was a lie, and Percy was well aware of his own abilities, making the decision to team up with the Roberts family the most sensible choice. Glancing down at Dora nestled in his arms,
Percy inquired, "What precisely did Blake do to upset you so profoundly that you harbor such animosity toward him?""
"He has offended me in countless ways. Even if he died right now, I wouldn't shed a single tear." Not only would she not shed a tear, but she would also quickly calculate the inheritance she could get.
She only wanted to gain more benefits.
As for feelings, after so many years, Dora finally understood that they were worthless, not worth a dime.
Percy shivered, realizing the importance of not crossing women, as you never know when they might plot revenge.
After Percy left, Dora noticed a missed call from Lucia.
Dora was about to call back but quickly hung up.
At this time, Dora could guess the reason for the call. However, she had already given all the advice she could. Even if Lucia called to complain now, she couldn't offer a better solution.
Moreover, Lucia couldn't rely on her forever.
Lucia needed to learn how to face this cruel world on her own.
