Chapter 266 Wade Won''t Make It
In rissa''s room.
Biting her finger, rissa called Beau. "Dad, what should I do now? Wade''s been suspicious of me for a while, and he had the paternity test done."
"Then let him stay asleep forever," Beau said in a low voice.
"Zey''s still in our hands... Do we let him go or not? He won''t divorce Kelly. If he dies, Kelly gets everything. Are we just going to hand her the inheritance on a silver tter?" rissa said bitterly.
"Then let Zev disappear for a while. We can find a way to make something happen to him. If he loses his memory, forgets Kelly, falls in love with you, or if you have another child of Zev''s..." Beau continued, giving rissa ideas.
rissa smiled. "Ha... Dad, you''re right."
Wasn''t Kelly just relying on Zev? Then she''d make sure Kelly would lose him foreve
If Kelly wasn''t going to make things easy for her, she wouldn''t let Kelly have it easy either. "I''ll have someone take care of Wade right away," rissa said coldly, with a malicious tone.
Stoneville Hospital.
Wade was still unconscious but out of danger.
"Mr. Morris, something happened at thepany. An employee copsed while voluntarily working overtime, and now a lot of media outlets are reporting that Lockhart Group is exploiting its workers... Reporters are crowding outside, and the employees are causing trouble. You need toe back right away."
Thepany called, urging Ken to return immediately
Ken frowned.
This was too much of a coincidence.
The Lockhart Group had clear working hours and never forced employees to work overtime. Someone fainting while voluntarily working overtime....
And it just happened to be caught by reporters, followed by employees causing trouble?
rissa had been close to thepany and the HR department for years, and the only one who could stir up such trouble was her.
Ken stood there, frowning, clearly distressed.
The phone kept ringing, one call after another.
Kreluctantly gave instructions to his secretary and subordinates, telling them to stay behind while he

"Something''s happened Something''s happened! Not long after Ken left, someone rushed up in a panic. "Mr. Morris, Mr. Morris''scar exploded in the underground parking lot!"
The secretary and other employees looked panicked as they quickly ran toward the parking lot. "How did the explosion happen?"
"Did you hear? A luxury car exploded in the underground parking lot."
"I just came from there. It was terrifying. The sound of the explosion was so loud it made my ears ring, and several other cars nearby were damaged. Now, all the cars in the underground parking lot are honking."
"Was there someone in the car? That''s terrifying."
"Yes! I heard there was someone in the car!"
A few nurses and family members of patients were discussing the explosion in the underground parking lot.
The people outside Wade''s hospital room were all scattered because of the explosion.
A person in a white coat walked over, ncing around cautiously before entering Wade''s room.
Inside the room, Wade was alone, still unconscious on the bed.
The man nced at Wade, then pulled a syringe from his pocket ...
In rissa''s room.
rissa answered the phone.
"The car exploded. Ken was inside. He''s definitely dead. The paternity test was with him, and it''s been destroyed. Once we deal with Wade ... no one will be able to prove Shane isn''t a Lockhart."
With Ken dead and Zev in her hands, getting rid of Wade would mean no one could prove Shane wasn''t a Lockhart by blood.
After all, everyone knew Shane was Wade''s great-grandson, and Wade had publicly recognized his identity
Now, all that was left was for her to leverage the Lockhart Group''s connections to fight Kelly for the inheritance and family fortune.
Without Zev, she didn''t see someone like Kelly as much of a threat.
rissa smiled. "You did well. Goy low for a while."
Hanging up, shetood up, feeling in a good mood, and walked out onto the balcony.
They''re all dead-perfect!
They''re all gone. No one will be left to stand in my way!
Kelly on Kelly let''s see hornne you can keep up your arrogce

rissa''s smile turned a bit wild, and she couldn''t wait to pop open a bottle of champagne to celebrate.
Knock, knock, knock. A sound came from the door.
rissa walked over. Who''s there?"
Kelly stood outside, her voice low. "It''s me."
“Huh?” rissa opened the door and looked at Kelly.
"Is there something you need?" rissa asked indifferently.
Kelly stared at her coldly. "Didn''t you get the call?"
inferently.
"What call?" rissa feigned calmness as she asked.
"The hospital called. Wade''s in critical condition and won''t make it. I can''t reach Ken, and the hospital and hotel both called me." Kelly lowered her voice and spoke again, "I thought you should know."
rissa didn''t want to pretend anymore. Her performance was clumsy as she gasped. "What did you say? Grandpa? No way..."
Pretending to be concerned, rissa pulled out her phone and dialed the hospital.
"Ms. rissa! Something''s happened!" The voice on the other end was Wade''s secretary, crying uncontrobly. "You need toe to the hospital right away! Mr. Morris''s car exploded! He''s gone! Wade''s not going to make it either! The doctor issued the death notice! Pleasee to the hospital!"
The excitement in rissa''s eyes was almost impossible to contain, but she still managed to hold herself back and replied, "I''ll be there soon."
