Chapter 145 145
Jonathan~~
I had to mindlink my new beta to go after the executives who were leaving with Ramsey. I went straight to a bar to keep myself busy while timing them, and soon I began taking photos of them in a hotel, with different dishes served before them, and so many kinds of drinks.
For heaven's sake, I had even forgotten how to get angry and was just assuming everything was working out according to my plan. I was so pissed at everyone beside me, including my mother, who was yet to make me understand my relationship with the so-called lycan king Dennis of the Bloodmoon Clan.
I had done research about the man, and I saw nothing about him having someone like me as a son. But the fact that he had just the same looks as me bothered me so much. I'd stared at his photo for days, wanting to assume it was just a mere resemblance, but it didn't look like one.
Now my beta was advising me to get a DNA done, and I was planning on reaching out to the king to get his hair or nail, which I would use. I vowed not to forgive my mum if this turned out to be true, and so I decided not to let her know about it and just pretend that I believed what she said about the issue.
My cell phone beeped, drawing me out of my thoughts, and it was still a message from my beta.
\[I sent you a voice recording of their discussion. Please listen to it.\]
Reading that, I opened the recording and listened to every single discussion they had while eating. How did they do it? I spent lots of money to have those men stand by me, and now they were even offering to help with the development of the company and how it was supposed to get a branch as of now.
I clenched my palm into a fist, not wanting to yell out in anger in the midst of people.
What would this be called? Was I so stupid that they shifted me aside?
I recalled telling them how I wanted to take that company to the highest level once my brother steps down. So why were they giving him my idea?
“No way is Ramsey doing all these without a spell. Both of them have a spell they use to attract people, and I also need one at this point." I mumbled under my breath and grabbed the glass of water, downed it all. “My mum lost her position already. If I lost mine too, what would be of us? I just needed my dad's assets and nothing else. He could go ahead and be the king if he wants. Why can't he just give up on one and disregard my dad's will?”
I dipped my fingers into my scalp, my breath heavy.
The fear of watching myself crumble in demotion was what I didn't want. The allowance I got as the lycan prince was the only thing I had with me now, so if I am demoted, what else would be left of me? I don't even have much to start a company. Maybe if I had known that this would be stretched up till now, I wouldn't have wasted all that money on hiring thugs and guards against Ramsey.
If I had built my empire then, it would have been blooming by now.
What kind of mistake did I even make?
My lycan roared in my head, and I let out a hiss.
I think the worst mistake was listening to my mum. She'd been the one advising me all through my life, and now it wasn't ending well.
After almost two hours of staying in the bar to clear my head, yet didn't succeed, I mindlinked my beta to come drive me back home. But when he arrived, he whispered something to me, and that ignited my interest.
I'll have to keep aside going after that fucking king that claimed he was my father. A father who didn't show up for me until now isn't worth that position.
“Let's head to the hospital, then,” I told my beta, and he drove off instantly.
I just felt my mood lighten by the news he got for me. Maybe using this could bring an end to everything.
When we arrived at the hospital, he advised that I wait behind so he could take care of everything on his own and get me positive feedback. I trusted him to do that, and although I hadn't been pressuring him, he had always done a nice job.
I waited in the car, looking out through the window with tinted glass, until I saw Ramsey drive out of the premises with Sandra. I studied his car and shook my head, recalling the many times I had my men shoot him in that car, only to realise every one of his properties, including his palace, are all bulletproof and fireproof, convincing me so well that he was hijacking the clan's money, because it worth so much to get such a thing accomplished.
Now that I thought about it, shouldn't the clan be worried about his source of wealth? No way was it just the company funding all his lifestyle.
The driver's door opened, causing me to flinch…so I took from my beta the sheet he was giving to me.
“It’s true that she's pregnant for real this time, so you could make use of it like your mum said,” my beta stated and turned around to meet my gaze. “I'll get together all the evidence you asked for that will make all these happen.”
I smiled softly and dropped the pregnancy scan result beside me. “Why do I feel like we should also find something against Ramsey in the process? Putting them all down at once would be better than having him fight for his luna because he wasn't in a mess.”
He rolled his eyes and nodded, “So what do you think?”
I thought for a while, “Find all his sources of income. We need something that will make the clan believe that he makes money illegally in a way that affects the clan, one he wouldn't be able to prove. That way, as he is getting down, I'm taking his luna…and everything is changing at once.”
“That's a nice idea. I will get it all done by the end of this week, so we don't waste too much time,” he assured me, and we left as well.
When I got back home, Eden was mounted on my bed scrolling through her cell phone.
My mum had finally gotten used to her presence, but she was so disappointed when she couldn't use Eden against her sister.
“You aren't doing anything stupid right now, huh?” I asked her, stiffened and just annoyed by her presence. What she did the other time pissed me off.
She dropped her cell phone and began climbing down from the bed. “My dad's so bothered, and so I am…all because of you and your mum. I'm scared of what the future holds for you two through your brother, but you think I'm overacting,” she said and threw her arms over my neck. “Jonathan, do you even love me again?”
I scoffed, “Why do you ask? Just don't make me angry, or the love I have for you will diminish.”
“Then get me pregnant!”
My eyes snapped open upon hearing that. “Are you okay? I should get you pregnant when I'm not stable?”
“Not stable? You aren't stable, but you're planning to claim Sandra's pregnancy.”
“I have a plan, Eden. There's something I need to get through her, so stop…
“What if you end up dumping me because you realised you loved her all this time?” she cut me short, and my brows drew together.
I shoved her closer by her neck from behind and leaned closer to her face, "I'm not dumping you. Once I claim her as mine, you will be pronounced luna, why she stays as a mistress until I'm done with her and shove her away. Are you getting me?”
She gasped and kissed my lips, and of course, I didn't hold back but began stripping my shirt.
I just pitied my mum, because Eden would moan down the house right now.
