Chapter 460 - Destruction (2/2)
After receiving Noah's orders, the men left one by one. Tim glanced at Maggie, who was talking to Ivy before he nodded at Noah and took his leave. Now, it was only Ivy, Oliver, Maggie, and Noah, along with Ronnie in the room. Though Ian was in the mansion, he had not joined the meeting, for he was exhausted from his work, and he had gone to sleep the moment he had entered the mansion. Anyway, Noah would brief him about the plan when he woke up.
”Mr. West, I presume, you had something to tell me.” Noah directed his attention to the man, who had not spoken a word during the meeting. Noah had been scared to think that his father-in-law would be disgusted after finding out his dangerous side. But the man had not reacted in any way, increasing his trepidation as time ticked by. No reaction was horrible than an unfavorable reaction.
”Ah,” Noah's voice brought Oliver out of his stupor. ”I am sorry. Did you say something? I am sorry I missed it.”
”Mr. West, I was wondering if you wanted to say something to me. It looked like you had a plan at hand.”
”Yes, I do have a plan.” Oliver placed his hand below his chin, comprehending his next words. ”Noah, when will the news channel start operating?”
Noah's brows furrowed, wondering why the old man was asking this question again when he already knew the answer. Yet, he replied to him. ”Mr. West, it was supposed to start operating next Monday, the same day we had the hotel inauguration as well as the game release.”
”I see. Do you think we can still do it? Will Joshua be able to release his game on the scheduled date?”
”I am not sure, Mr. West. I will have to enquire about it. He might be able to do it. We still have five days.” Noah answered, still unable to comprehend what the man wanted to do.
”Noah, if we can go ahead with our original plan, can you keep a spot open? I might have something that might help you destroy Jared.” Oliver raised his eyebrows, and Noah tilted his head, a wicked gleam passing through his face. His lips rose in amus_e_m_e_nt, unable to believe his father-in-law's evil side which he had hidden brilliantly.
”Don't look at me that way, son. I have seen a lot of things in my field of work, and I have realized that only a more powerful person can deal with a powerful person. Moreover, Jared is a sc_u_mbag, trash. It is no use handing him to the police, for he will escape easily if as Maggie says, there are people supporting him within the system.” Oliver did not hesitate to show his disp_l_e_a_s_u_r_e in the authorities that dealt with such people. ”Every place is filled with corrupt people, and Jared knows how to make use of them.”
”I agree, Mr. West. I will keep a spot open if we were to follow the initial schedule.” Noah smiled wickedly, and Oliver returned it with a smile of his own. ”Get ready, Jared. Your destruction is awaiting you.”
