Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 656

The plane heading to Bellridge flew over Christopher as he waited on the lawn. After a while, he thought it was about time and walked out from another exit. As soon as he reached the door, an assistant came over immediately and helped him with his luggage while a car stopped beside Christopher.

The car window rolled down and Lucas’ face peered out. “Get in; I have arranged everything!” said Lucas.

Christopher opened the door and got into the car. After looking at the message that Yvonne sent him just now, he turned off his phone and changed the SIM card before turning it back on. “How are the preparations?”

“Everything is ready. Lucas’ black market trade will be held in Kenfort this time. Many bigwigs are in contact with him. Luckily, I participated once before, so I’m confident I can bring you inside.”

Lucas looked solemn. “Is the information reliable? What’s the quality of the source?” he asked.

“Don’t worry. Even if I don’t care about your safety, I still care about my own.” Lucas shrugged and continued, “Look, I chose to go with you because I want you to trust me. Mark has some plans regarding this mayoral election. He was the one who pledged to support Darius’ opponent.”

“You are saying the Frank family is supported by Mark?” Christopher was a little surprised when he heard that. The Franks have always had a good reputation within the political circle. The Kents used

Monica’s family to try to get themselves elected in the last election, but they failed and remained silent since. This year, the Franks came out of nowhere and Darius is not prepared for them at all. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“You may not believe me, but Uncle Mark doesn’t just take things one step at a time. He has plotted this since a long time ago. He has long harbored huge ambition and wants to be the top guy in Avenport. Your family wouldn’t have taken control of the city for so many years if he hadn’t gotten hurt in an internal power struggle and was forced to recover abroad in Anglandur,” Lucas said confidently.

Christopher frowned; he couldn’t refute Lucas’ words. There was no way for them to know what would have happened then. In Lucas’ eyes, Mark was an obstacle that he could never overcome. Moreover, Mark was also Yvonne’s father.

“So, you are telling me that even if I don’t want to target Mark because of Yvonne, I still have to consider if Mark wants to deal with the Lane family? Am I right?” Christopher smiled as he rested his chin on his hand.

Lucas frowned when he noticed the underlying meaning in Christopher’s words. “You think I’m lying to you? Christopher, It won’t end well if we can’t even trust each other while we work together. Uncle Mark is not as easy as he seems. Do you remember having almost lost your life in Yorksland? If Yvonne hadn’t revealed her identity by accident and caused Garfield to stop because he didn’t want to hurt her, or if Lyle didn’t risk his life to help you two, both of you would have lost your lives. You wouldn’t be here to mull over Aunt Isabelle.”

Lucas became a little anxious. It hasn’t been easy bringing Christopher to our side. My reasons were a little far-fetched then but Christopher agreed. Looking at him now; is he going back on his word? Is this

because Mark agreed for him and Yvonne to be together?

“If you are hesitating to act because Mark is supportive of you and Yvonne, I would suggest that you investigate the Frank family. We can talk about the Kenfort matter after the investigation. I know I won’t survive if you really set me up.”

“What you said seems to make sense,” Christopher said nonchalantly as he rolled down the window. He seemed to be uninterested in the matter. His gaze deepened when he saw the sweat on Lucas’ forehead.
