Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 2141

......

For a moment, it was hard to tell what was true or false. His gaze swept across the two people opposite him who were as calm as if they were in their own home. Elijah was confused for a moment. Did his father become so muddle-headed that he did not tell him the other secret behind the Double Dragon Cuffs but told it to an outsider?

No, it was impossible!

Noticing the disappointment and mockery in his mother's eyes, Elijah's heart sank a little and he slowly sat back down. But what's going on? Why did she show up in such a way? Who gave her so much confidence? What was she waiting for?

At this moment, the woman spoke again. "You look like your father! The more devoted a man looked, the more heartless he was. Any reason that is not a reason can be a reason."

"Then you don't understand men!"

"Really? You must be very confident in yourself! That's because you haven't met a life-and-death choice! For a man, money, fame, wealth, life, death, family, friendship, inheritance, and even dignity can be more important than love. Any one of them can become a reason to abandon love! After experiencing so many things, even a fool will understand that love is actually the least valuable thing in the world. It never last as long as family and there are no benefits! When you have nothing, would you choose between a rich prostitute or a poor beauty? What will you choose?"

She gave him a scornful smile. The woman seemed to have a well-thought-out plan. Elijah understood that what she wanted was not his answer. As such, he did not say anything. Instead, he just listened.

"This is the true nature of men! Do you believe it? When this prostitute helped him up the ladder, she was the one who was pushed to the ground! What man could tolerate a woman who had seen the worst of him? Even if the woman had given him her everything even as she starved! This is human nature. It is easy to forget pain when wounds heal! If you still remember something, it must be disgusting! Then, he chose a pure beauty, even she had nothing to her name, even if she did not love him. As long as she was young, beautiful, obedient and looked up to him, he could satisfy his desires and wash away his dirty past! Haha..."

She continued mockingly as she cracked her knuckles. At the same time, Elijah saw the fleeting light followed by the dull dimness in Kim Mi-chi's eyes.

What was she hoping for?

An idea came to his mind, and then he wondered if she used what Doreen said on him?

Were they really mother and daughter?

As his thoughts continued to wander, her cold voice rang out again: "Do you want to hear a story?"

Before Elijah could make a sound, he heard a car pulling up the driveway. It interrupted everyone's thoughts in an instant.

Carolien's car?

He looked in the direction of the door and his heartbeat suddenly sped up. Oh no, he forgot to inform her not to come back!

Although they were two women, for them to come in so openly, who knew what they were up to!

Thinking that his family affairs should have nothing to do with her, they should not make things difficult for her!

All of a sudden, Elijah stood up. Unfortunately, before he could do anything, Doreen spoke coldly, "Mr. Luther, you'd better not act recklessly!"

Elijah turned around and caught sight of the sudden glint in the woman's eyes and her smile. What was with her?

Could it be that they had been sitting here calmly, waiting for Carolien?

He had not figured out what they were doing. At this moment, his eyes were fixed on the opposite side. As expected, the woman stood up slowly.

At the door, when she got out of the car, she could hear a faint conversation in the room. Carolien was also surprised at the silence. But when she saw Elijah's car, she still walked in.

"Elijah..."

Seeing him at a glance, Carolien took two small steps. When she was about to say something, she suddenly saw strange faces. She realized that there were guests. Just as she was about to say hello, she saw Kim Mi-chi sitting on the sofa. In an instant, the smile on her lips froze.

What was going on?

It wasn't the right time for her to come in.

"Uh... I'm here to get something!"

"You know it's a key, but you don't know that it can open more than one door! Double Dragon Cuffs is not just a key, but also the only token of the head of the Luther family! I believe your father must have told you that the Double Dragon Cuffs is very important. You shouldn't lose it, can you?"

Frowning, Elijah's eyes darkened a little, but he didn't say anything.

Indeed, his father had said it more than once! In the past, he thought of it as a key. Because he had spent a lot of manpower and resources on it but could not replicate it so he had not given up on looking for it. Until he took it back from Carolien and used it to make a replica. Now, Double Dragon Cuffs was just an accessory!

Although the Double Dragon Cuffs was a family heirloom of the Luther family, it was not the battle for the throne in the ancient times. There was no throne to inherit. The so-called token was just a reason, but in fact, what was the use of it?

His father only had one son, and he was the only heir of the Luther family. Even if ten other children appeared, they were still illegitimate. This thing had nothing else to offer except its role as a key. But why did her words sound so strange?

However, for some reason, Elijah's heart sank to the ground. He didn't even know that the Double Dragon Cuffs had a pair of bracelets. Moreover, judging from his mother's reaction, she didn't seem to know either!

Since no one in the Luther family knew about it, how could this woman know about it?

Was her words trustworthy?

Elijah was suspicious!

"Of course I can't lose it!"

Holding them in her hand tightly, the woman suddenly said,

"Because it can be used to change the head of the Luther family! According to your father, if the head of the Luther family could not keep the Double Dragon Cuffs, it meant that he did not have the ability or something big happened to the company, so he is not worthy of sitting in this position! As long as the Luther family controls less than 30% of the shares, or there is a sharp decline in funds, those who knew the secret behind the Double Dragon Cuffs could sign another agreement to get 50% of the original shares not revealed to the public. The Double Dragon Cuffs would be the trigger to start the agreement between the six lawyers!" This was originally reserved by your grandfather in order to protect the Luther family and pass it from generation to generation. It was also a warning to the head to always have a backup plan and also a hope. Therefore, you should have known what your father knew, but he had a selfish motive—"

What she meant was that he didn't tell him so that there was a chance to get rid of him one day!

In an instant, everyone's expressions changed. Mrs. Luther gritted her teeth so hard that her teeth chattered. Carolien's eyes were also filled with worry as she looked at Elijah!
