“How did he die?”
Nash was stunned. He had met Sheldon once when treating Philix’s illness at Zell Private Estate. The
man had seemed to be in the pink of his health and had not shown any signs of feeling unwell. Why did
he die so abruptly?
Xeno replied, “He hung himself. I’m suspecting it’s because of Duncan!”
Nash remained silent for a short while longer before he narrowed his eyes. “Isn’t Duncan Sheldon’s
grandson?”
Xeno exined, “Duncan was adopted by Sheldon’s son and daughter-inw, and he’s unwee in
the Duerson family. Sheldon’s will states that Duncan will inherit the fortune he’s left behind.
That’s more than enough for me to deduce that he’s definitely connected to Sheldon’s death in some
way!”
Xeno’s voice lowered as he continued, “Duncan’s not a force to be reckoned with!”
“That’s interesting!”
Nash narrowed his eyes slightly.
Xeno had done a good job breaking down everything for him.
However, that caused him even more unease.
Duncan may have found out he was a part of the Youngs because of what had happened recently.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
He may have killed Sheldon to avenge the Youngs.
Everything he did was to attract his attention.
“When will you be going to the Duersons’ residence, Nash?”
“Pick me up from Cloud Peak Pce Hotel. We’ll go right now!”
Nash drew in a long breath after he hung up the phone.
Duncan was not a force to be reckoned with.
The fact he wanted to meet him meant he wanted to strike a deal.
Half an hourter, Nash and Hera left Cloud Peak Pce Hotel.
Weston apanied them to the hotel’s doors.
As they walked to the entrance, a pink-colored Porsche pulled to a stop in front of the entrance.
It was Sydney’s car.
Sydney had taken over Cloud Peak Pce Hotel when she was just 16 years old. She had utilized all
her
connections to acquaint herself with Max Kline, president of Jonford Universal Group.
Then, it took her another three months of negotiations before she sessfully transformed Cloud Peak
Pce Hotel into one of the hotels Universal Group was affiliated with.
It had been three years since that happened.
“Ms. Zell, what are you doing here?”
Weston immediately hurried over, hoping to tter her.
Sydney nced at Nash, then turned to Weston to ask in a purposefully loud voice, “I heard someone
beat up Hunter?”
Weston smiled. “Not to worry, Ms. Zell. Hunter deserved it!”
Sydney frowned. “Do you know that Hunter and Jacob are cousins and that Jacob’s girlfriend is
Queenie, whose cousin is the vice president of Universal Group?”
Cloud Peak Pce Hotel depended on Universal Group for the majority of their ie. If they got on
the vice president’s wrong side, he could cause a massive drop in their profits in the blink of an eye.
Nash and Hera got into the Audi.
Xeno stepped on the gas and left.
It was only then that Weston leaned toward Sydney and whispered into her ear.
Sydney’s eyes widened as she asked in disbelief, “No way… Is that true?”
Weston had a rueful look on his face. “Girl, do I look like I’d ever dare lie to you?”
Mr. Calcraft had requested he keep the news on the down-low, but Ms. Zell was his boss. He could not
lie to his boss, could he?
“Nash! Head of inspection of all Universal Group branches in the greater Drakonia area! How… how
did he pull that off?”
Sydney muttered to herself dazedly.
She had always been an arrogant woman.
After taking over Cloud Peak Pce Hotel when she was 16, it had only taken her three months to
establish a partnership with the president of Jonford Universal Group. It then took her three years for
Cloud Peak Pce Hotel to attain a worth of 2.5 billion dors.
Not a single person in Capiton’s Ten Families had managed to earn two billion dors when they were
still 19 years old.
Her n for the next five years was to meet the presidents of each Universal Group branch in
Drakonia and convince them to allow Cloud Peak Pce Hotel to be affiliated with their brand.
She had currently sessfully engaged with three different presidents
