Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 377

From Sean's memories, Horace had been a favorite of Russell since he was a kid, and as long as he wasn't asking too much, Russell wouldn't turn him down.

At first, he didn't really care. Horace was the youngest son of the Kirkland family, and his parents were gone, so it was only natural that Russell would love him more. But as time passed and Horace grew older, he began to feel that his younger brother was becoming more and more of an eyesore.

Horace grew up to be an outstanding man, and that kind of outstanding made him feel more threatened than ever...

With a loud bang, Sean kicked over the chair in front of him, but he still felt his anger boil over. What Russell said at the party today!

Today was the annual meeting of the Kirkland Group, which was attended by all staff and directors. As a member of the Kirkland family, Russell brought Horace along. But he had never expected his grandfather to introduce Horace to the company so grandly. He had only said hello to a few of the company's directors when he came to work.

And what Grandpa said today was clearly a message to everyone and to him: he, Horace, was the future successor to the Kirkland Group.

Why! In terms of experience and ability, he was no less than Horace. Why did Horace get so much attention when he came to the company! He couldn't help but feel angry at the way Horace was treated by the company's employees and directors at today's annual meeting.

No, he couldn't let it go on like this. He had to find a way to stop it. He would never allow Horace to take his place after years of hard work at the company.

Before he could think of a way to deal with it, Russell's actions made him even more anxious.

Since Horace's last appearance at the company's annual meeting, Russell had been taking him to all kinds of business meetings. Less than two months later, executives at companies that regularly work with Kirkland Group learned of his existence.

At this rate, would he still have a place in the Kirkland Group?

In desperation, he thought of a solution that was not the way: kidnapping. Once Horace was gone, the Kirkland family would be left with only one son, and the Kirkland Group would be his.

Once the idea came up, it took root in his mind and never went away. The more he thought about it, the more he realized it was doable. Finally, he contacted a group of kidnappers and told them to wait for the opportunity to kidnap Horace.

Instead, Russell Protected Horace so well that the kidnappers kept an eye on him for about two months and never got a chance to take him.

It made Sean even more resentful and determined to get rid of Horace, Russell had never been so careful to protect him.

Determination was one thing, but the kidnapping of Horace had been no progress, even if he was impatient, there was no help, he could only slowly wait for the opportunity.

But how could it be delayed? If Horace found out that the kidnappers were following him, all of his plans would be ruined, and he might even be exposed.

While he was anxious but couldn't do anything, a girl suddenly found him, and it was Laura.

He had heard about Laura, too, since her relationship with Horace was so high-profile that it was impossible for him not to know.

"Mr. Kirkland, there's something I'd like to work with you on. I was wondering if you'd be interested?" Laura cut to the chase.

"What is it?" Sean was confused, wondering what Horace's girlfriend was doing here?

Without too many pleasantries, Laura said, "The Hutchinson family had been having some difficulties in their business recently. If Mr. Kirkland could help the Hutchinson family through this difficult time. In return, I will find a way to help you kidnap and eliminate Horace, and secure your position as heir to the Kirkland Group."

"What kidnapping? I don't know what you're talking about," Sean denied immediately, but his heart skipped a beat. How could Laura have known?

"Mr. Kirkland, did you hire those people to stalk Horace?" Laura smiled disdainfully, "I saw those men meet you with my own eyes. Mr. Kirkland, do you deny it now?"

"When?" Sean snapped to his feet. How could he have been seen meeting with the kidnappers when he was so careful?

"Mr. Kirkland, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this, but only if Mr. Kirkland agrees to what I just asked," Laura said as she moved to the side of the sofa and sat down.

Thinking about what Laura had just said, Sean hesitantly, "Aren't you Horace's girlfriend? Why would you help me get rid of him?"

"For the Hutchinson family, of course," Kirkland said. "I'm sure Mr. Kirkland understands how a boyfriend can be compared to one's own family business."

Looking at Laura's smile, Sean felt uncomfortable. Was she mocking him for sacrificing his own brother for the Kirkland Group?

That's what he thought, but Sean took Laura's words seriously. With her help, kidnapping Horace would be a lot easier. Without Horace, the Kirkland Group would be his.

Compared to getting the Kirkland Group, helping the Hutchinson family get through the tough times was a small matter.

"What are you going to do?" Sean asked, looking at Laura.

Hearing this, Laura smiled, Sean asked this, which meant that he had agreed.

She told Sean What she had planned, Laura added, "I have one more demand, that all the ransom money for this kidnapping be mine. I will pretend to be burned to death and then take the money and live abroad."

Hearing Laura's words, Sean sighed at this woman's cruelty. He had heard how much Horace loved his girlfriend. He didn't expect her to take Horace seriously at all.

But this had nothing to do with him; as long as Laura was on his side, a bit hard-hearted is not a bad thing.

"No problem, but you have to promise me that you will never return to the country again." Sean naturally did not care about this little amount of money. What he was concerned about was that nothing would go wrong with this plan.

"Deal," Laura agreed at once. She had no intention of coming back.

With the help of Laura, Horace was kidnapped very smoothly, but the result was not satisfactory, and he escaped eventually.

But Sean got what he wanted. Horace, who had lost both his legs, was no longer qualified to compete with him for the Kirkland Group.

Thinking about it, Sean's face was full of contorted grimaces. Who would have thought that Horace was faking his disability, or that he would end up in jail?

But when he calmed down, his heart was full of fear again. He shuddered at the thought of how shrewd and ruthless Laura had been when she was young.

So many years have passed, Laura's means must be more sinister, in case she really wanted to deal with his son, and Darren couldn't compete with her.

With that in mind, Sean decided that for the sake of his son's safety, he would keep this secret for the rest of his life. Nothing in the world was more important to him than his son.
