Chapter 962 I Can Own You Anytime
“What’s going on with me?” George held his forehead as his body began to sway.
Stanford seemed to realize something at this moment and he immediately took a close inspection of the teapot on the table,
“Didn’t you make this tea yourself?”
“It’s made by mum. Why...”
Before he could finish his sentence, he fell to the ground without warning.
Stanford turned to look at George who was lying unconsciously on the floor and shouted nervously, “George!”
At this moment, George was completely out cold, without any compass on his surroundings.
The first thought that flashed by in Stanford’s mind was to get out of this place as soon as possible. His leg was obstructing that
intention, so he hastily took out his phone to call Atwood.
The line continued to stay idle without anyone connecting it, and his body began to show some signs of discomfort too. His line
of sight was deteriorating.
He tightened his grip.
With a clanking sound, the door of the room suddenly flung open.
Alyssa stood at the door and stared at his son who was lying on the floor. She didn’t look startled at all as she walked over to
help him up with a frown on her face.
“Son, I am doing this for your own good.”
Alyssa knew about George’s temperament, and if he had known what was going to happen, he would have objected against
vying for the inheritance right using such means.
She had no choice but to drug him into oblivion for now.
This drug wouldn’t have any side effects too.
At that moment, Stanford’s call finally went through. Atwood’s voice came, “Mr. James...”
Alyssa snapped her head around immediately and before Stanford could say anything, his phone was snatched away by her and
the call was ended abruptly.
Stanford felt his consciousness dying, and his gaze went blank. He had completely lost his consciousness.
Alyssa switched off the phone and tossed it into a dustbin. She snorted coldly, “Today, no one can stop me from carrying out my
plan.”
She helped his son onto the bed before summoning a woman who was wearing a face mask into the room.
“He can’t be here,” Alyssa said. Atwood knew about this place.
It would spell trouble if he was able to find them here.
“I know another place,” Lindsay said.
The person who Alyssa had called in was none other than Lindsay.
Alyssa had set her sights on taking the family inheritance, so she had tried hard to brainwash Enoch to call Stanford here.
However, she was refused every time by Stanford, and she knew that Stanford wouldn’t agree to that any time. Therefore, she
had been thinking of ways to let Stanford soften his stance ever since she returned from the hospital.
At that moment, Lindsay approached her.
Lindsay realized that Amanda had left City B when she came back, so it was impossible to get her revenge for now. She couldn’t
leave City B, and she couldn’t show herself anywhere in order not to get found out. This was how she ultimately set her sights on
Stanford.
She knew very well that she alone was incapable of executing her plans.
She knew about Stanford’s stepmother and the fact that Alyssa always treated Stanford badly. Alyssa was even aiming to snatch
everything away from him.
It was just that Stanford was no longer a child, and he wouldn’t just go along with her.
Lindsay was able to pinpoint this weakness and suggested a good idea to Alyssa after reaching her. She even told Alyssa that
she had a way to help her get her hands on the J&Y Group.
As expected, Alyssa got on to the deal fast.
The enemy of one’s enemy could turn into a friend, as the saying goes.
After reaching a consensus, they finalized this plan together. Of course, Enoch was in the know about this too as he was tired of
Stanford’s disrespect towards him. He didn’t object or say anything at all when he learnt of their plan.
“My place.” Before this, he had purchased a property. Putting aside those that were confiscated, she still had one place left
untouched.
Nobody knew about that place.
“Is it safe?” Alyssa asked.
“Very,” Lindsay answered confidently.
She looked at Stanford who was out cold and a cruel smile appeared at her lips, “Finally, you succumb to me as well.”
“Enough, it’s not the time for us to banter. Let’s get down to work.” Alyssa announced.
Lindsay was very cooperative and she agreed that it was indeed not the time to talk and shoot the breeze. She headed to where
the wheelchair was and pushed it, “Let’s go.”
Alyssa glanced at her son before nodding.
...
After an hour, they moved Stanford to a house that was bought by Lindsay previously. The process itself was not hard as
Stanford was placed in his usual wheelchair and all Lindsay had to do was to push it.
On the other hand, Alyssa was responsible for looking out.
The whole thing was smooth when they were on their way.
...
Stanford finally woke up, and he saw himself getting tied to a chair. He tried to move his arms, but they didn’t budge at all.
“Long time no see.” Lindsay stood in front of him. She had washed herself and got a new change of clothes. She was watching
him at the moment.
Stanford looked up abruptly.
“Don’t look so shocked.” Lindsay sat on a sofa and smiled, “Isn’t this a nice surprise?”
Stanford simply looked at her without saying anything.
Lindsay stroked his face and although she was widely grinning, there was an awfully dangerous air to her, “I am always thinking
for your sake, but you want me dead all along. Stanford, you are really heartless.”
“There is never a time that I stop wanting you dead.” Stanford’s expression was one of disgust, “Lindsay, do you really think I
ever had feelings for you even once?”
Lindsay clenched her fists and tried hard not to lash out and punch his face. In no time, she transformed her anger into a smile,
“Hey, so what if you want me dead? Now your life is in my hands.”
She stood up and sat on Stanford’s lap, “You resent me, and want me dead, but I just so happen to be alive. The more you hate
me, the closer I am to you now. You know what? Stanford, I have been loving you for so many years, but at this moment, I feel
truly elated, and that is because...”
Lindsay moved her lips to his ears, “I can own you anytime.”
