Chapter 357

“It seems that this challenge wasn’t enough to trouble her.”
Hearing this, Maurice’s loyal subordinates became even more convinced that it was Maurice
who sent the assassins.
The subordinates thought that Maurice was taking things too far and playing with fire.
Maurice couldn’t care less about what his men were thinking. He simply ordered, “Keep tailing her. Report back to me on any updates immediately.”
“Yes, sir!” replied the subordinates.
After ending the call, Maurice glanced in the direction of Grandeur Hall and asked the subordinate behind him, “How much did Kelsey spend hiring these people?”
The subordinate replied honestly, “Two million dollars. Their rates are usually much higher, but since the target was just a young lady, they lowered it.”
Maurice couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing.
Seventeen subordinates. It was supposed to be a sure win, but they had all been utterly
defeated.
“Let’s go. Grab some gifts and we’ll pay that old lady a visit.”
Maurice, who was now on his feet, had long since abandoned his wheelchair. Although his arms had not healed entirely, it did very little to affect his uncontrollable temper.
At Grandeur Hall, Kelsey was in shock when the news reached her.
“What? All seventeen assassins couldn’t even handle one young woman ? They’re all useless!”
“Mrs. Glovers Senior, please stay calm. Perhaps Mr. Glover’s subordinates were simply too strong. With them protecting Felicia, it’s understandable that the attempt failed-”
“Maurice only sent four people! Seventeen against four, and they still lost? What a joke!”
Kelsey became increasingly furious, but before she could continue, she noticed one of the maids winking at her frantically. This meant that Maurice just got here and that she should
end the conversation.
Kelsey turned around and saw Maurice entering He was perfectly unscathed with no missing limbs, not even a scratch.
He carried himself as usual, wearing a fake, casual smile. Yet the air of authority radiating from him made her insides churn.
Kelsey clenched her fists.
Over the years, Maurice had solidified his position as the head of the Glovers family so thoroughly that he was basically untouchable.
Suppressing her anger, Kelsey forced a smile. “Dear grandson, you’re here!”
“Just thought I’d check in on you and bring some gifts to show my respect.” Maurice gestured, and his subordinates immediately stepped forward with an array of gifts. Every single gift was geared toward cooling down tempers and lowering blood pressure. Drinks, snacks, and even medication were neatly arranged before her.
Kelsey’s smile faltered. Her expression stiffened as she forced out the words, “How thoughtful of you, dear. The weather’s been so warm lately, and I’ve been feeling a bit… overheated.”
“Really? What a coincidence.”
He exchanged a few more pleasantries, watching as her expression grew darker with every word. Once he was satisfied, he turned back and left.
The moment Maurice was gone, Kelsey flipped the entire table of gifts onto the floor.
“That ungrateful wretch! Bastard!
“Mrs. Glovers Senior, please calm down. Don’t hurt yourself.” The maid tried to console her, only for Kelsey to grab her wrist tightly.
“Did you see the way he looked just now? So arrogant, so smug! That little bastard! If he could kill his own father and brother, it’s only a matter of time before he drives me to my grave!!
Kelsey kept muttering, and a thought consumed her mind. She had to avenge her son and grandson.
“If one attempt isn’t enough, I’ll try again. I’ll spend more money to hire fearless assassins, Whatever it takes to get rid of that bastard and reclaim the Glovers‘ name!”
