When Lita went downstairs, she saw Harry rushing into the living room in a hurry.
"Mrs. Selmy, where's Mr. Alex?" Harry asked anxiously when he saw Lita.
"Alex should be eating in the guest room. What happened, Harry?"
Lita could see the seriousness on Harry's face. Something bad must have happened, because Harry had always been calm. What made him so anxious was definitely not a trivial matter.
Harry did not answer Lita's question, but walked quickly to the guest room.
"Mr. Alex, something bad has happened." Harry met Alex in the corridor.
"Let's talk in the study." Alex knew clearly that Harry would not make a fuss over small matters.
"All right." Harry followed Alex into the study.
After closing the door, Harry lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Alex, look, this is the will written by Mr. Ethan. I copied it from the lawyer."
"A will? My brother is fine. Why would he make a will?" Alex snapped. But when he opened the file bag, took out the will of Ethan drafted by the lawyer. After he finished reading, he got furious.
"My brother wants to hand over Selmy's Group to Ellie? Is he crazy?" Alex couldn't understand this. Ellie was one of the suspects who conspired to kill the two brothers of Selmy family. He not only had the motive, but also had premeditated plans to commit crimes.
"Mr. Alex, I think Mr. Ethan must have done this to protect you. Only by giving Selmy's Group to Ellie will Ellie let you go! Mr. Ethan is trying to get you out of trouble. He wants to give up the fortune for your safety. You should understand his kindness," Harry said with tears in his eyes.
Perhaps Ethan wouldn't forget to protect his half-brother until the end of his life. For Alex, he could give up everything, including his life! But the more he had done for Alex,. the more difficult for Alex to let him go. He wouldn't stand by and watch Ellie take away everything that belonged to Ethan.
"As long as I'm here, Ellie will never get Selmy's Group!" The hatred in Alex's eyes burst out again.
"But Mr. Ethan is the owner of Selmy's Group. He has the power to make a will and decide the heir of Selmy's Group," Harry reminded him.
Alex frowned and pondered for a while. Then he said coldly, "If my brother knows that Yen isn't dead... Do you think he will not be so depressed?"
"What? Miss Kipping isn't dead?" Harry's eyes lit up. "Is this news reliable?"
"It should be reliable! But the woman seemed to be avoiding something and hiding herself in a very secret place." Alex slightly narrowed his eyes and tapped his fingers on the will rhythmically.
"This is indeed good news..." But then, Harry sighed again, "but maybe it's also bad news!"
"How could it be bad news? What do you mean?" Alex asked in a deep voice.
"You know Mr. Ethan was deeply in love when he pursued Miss Kipping. Of course he would be very happy when he first knows that Miss Kipping isn't dead. But then what would he think? You know his personality. He feels inferior because of his current appearance. He would suffer more from the contradiction of loving Miss Kipping in his heart but couldn't show it to her." After serving in Selmy family for 30 years, Harry knew Ethan like the back of his hand.
"Why can't he love her? If my brother loves her, even at the cost of tying her up, I will definitely send her to my brother's bed!" Alex snorted coldly. As long as Ethan wanted her, he would definitely make his wish come true.
However, Harry just shook his head and sighed. 'Unfortunately Ethan lacks the aggressiveness of Alex.'
It was late at night and Lita was sitting in front of the desk, thinking about the outline of her graduation thesis. What she majored was visual communication design, and she had not yet practiced it in work, so she could only be an armchair strategist for the time being.
Alex walked in and put a thick stack of documents on the desk.
"These are documents about Selmy's Group. You must finish reading it tonight.
There is a letter of appointment. You'd better remember it well. Tomorrow, you and my brother will go to Selmy's Group to attend the shareholders' meeting!"
Lita picked up the documents and flicked through them briefly. She asked with some uncertainty, "Alex, aren't you going with your brother?"
Selmy's Group was quite well-known in Lisbon. Lita was green and inexperienced. She was really a little nervous about attending the meeting with Ethan.
Seeing from the woman's eyes that she wanted to rely on him, Alex curved his lips into a faint smile and said, "Didn't you keep shouting that you want to spend time with my brother alone? I'm giving you the opportunity."
"But... But your brother will definitely need you on the important occasion of shareholders' meeting," Lita muttered anxiously.
"Does my brother need me or do you need me?" Alex asked in a low voice.
Litaa colored slightly. "Of course your brother needs you! You are his younger brother. You have to help him take care of Selmy's Group!"
Alex sighed slightly. "It's a pity that I, as an illegitimate son, am not favored by Selmy family. Since I was brought back into the family, I have been deprived of the right to inherit any property of the family!"
When Alex said these words, he didn't show a tinge of sadness. His tone was scornful. He had never cared about a company like Selmy's Group.
Though he didn't care about it, it didn't mean that he would let Ethan give it to Ellie for free.
"Alex, would you go tomorrow? Jus to help your brother, please go," Lita begged again.
Of course, he would go. It was just that he would go in a peculiar way.
Suddenly, Alex raised the corner of his lips and blurted out, "I can go tomorrow...But tonight you have to sleep with me. Let me sleep over in your room!"
Lita gritted her teeth in hatred. She said word by word, "Alex, you get out of here now. Immediately. Get out!"
"..." If it weren't for the fact that he got something else to do tonight, it would be fun to stay and tease the little woman who would bite.
It was almost nine o'clock when Lita woke up the next morning, because she read the document until very late last night.
"Why didn't the alarm I set go off?" Lita rushed into the bathroom and quickly washed herself up. She simply pulled her hair back and made a ponytail, pit on light makeup, and ran out.
The young and beautiful Lita was full of vigorous vitality. She would make anyone saw her feel particularly comfortable and warm.
In the living room, "Ethan" seemed to have had breakfast and was quietly sitting in a wheelchair waiting for Litaa. When Lita arrived like a lovely butterfly, a ray of bright light flashed across his eyes.
The "Ethan", who could sit, eat, move, and even tease Lita, was definitely not the real Ethan himself, but Alex who wore the artificial skin.
"Ethan, I'm sorry... I woke up iate. I've kept you waiting, haven't I?" Litaa immediately squatted down and sincerely held Alex's hand that was wrapped by the artificial skin. It was a scar covered horrible hand.
