    Chapter 1874 A Trap


    Frostiness gradually appeared in Elektra''s eyes. She cursed at her foolishness.


    I can''t evenpare to Aubree. At least Aubree was once in an intimate rtionship 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. | 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,pany, and Flora Verba Group. Does that mean Lucian''s love for her was built on her improvement in bing a


    sessful person? Does that mean Lucian will look at me in a different light if | be 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 uing wedding,pany- rted matters became Jonathan and Cayden''s responsibility.


    Jonathan was mainly tasked with the strategy part, while Cayden controlled the execution of their n. 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 ce, they would enjoy greater power in developing these areas.


    Since theirst failure in the foreign trade market in Epea, Crawford Heights Group ced 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, thetter would ask him to wait longer, and


    Jonathan believed in Lucian''sjudgment.


    As expected, Crawford Heights Group ran into trouble one weekter. 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, iming 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! | want their exnation. 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 thepany''s money?”Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


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


    Farwell Group. | fell into the trap because | wonted to get the resources. Now | know why Lucianpeted with me for a period


    before suddenly giving up. Did he set me up?
