Once I Accept The Inheritance: You're All Doomed! Chapter 64: Constantly Blaming!
"Do you really think that Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals would starve if we didn’t partner with Welsh Max?" Mr. Marshall’s voice was cold, and the oppressive atmosphere around him made it hard for anyone nearby to breathe.It had been a long time since he had been this angry. When Mr. Marshall got angry, everyone else was terrified.Eleanor could also feel the imposing aura of Mr. Marshall, a presence that made her nervous."That's right! Even if we don't cooperate with Welsh Max, Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals can still partner with other companies. It just means less profit. If you think you can use this to pressure me and Grandpa, you're dreaming!"Tommy chimed in, fueling the fire. He wanted to ensure that whatever goodwill Grandpa had left for Eleanor would be completely eroded, making her easier to deal with."Eleanor, I suggest you quickly apologize to Grandpa, take back what you said, and hand the contract over to Tommy." Laurie stood by, arms crossed, smiling coldly with a look of mo

Only then did Alexander release Valeria’s hand. He turned to Eleanor and said: “Go rest in the bedroom."Eleanor stood up, her eyes red, and walked straight into the bedroom.Alexander watched her retreating figure, silently saying nothing.But Valeria wasn't done with him. She knocked the water basin out of his hands onto the floor and angrily pointed at him, shouting: “Alexander, I'm warning you, don’t lead my daughter astray! Sooner or later, the two of you will get divorced. My daughter's precious time can’t be wasted on you!"Alexander remained silent, quietly picking up the broom to clean the floor.Valeria stomped her foot in anger and cursed: “Useless piece of trash! Sooner or later, I’ll kick you out of our house!"It was almost lunchtime when Alexander entered the bedroom. He found Eleanor sitting on the bed, hugging her knees, quietly sobbing."What’s wrong?" Alexander asked gently.Eleanor turned her back to him, wiped her tears, and replied in a choked voice: “N-nothing."

Back at the Marshall family’s old house, in the main hall, the first and third wives were present, discussing Eleanor’s actions at the morning meeting."Grandpa, Eleanor has become too arrogant. We can’t let this go. She’s trying to take Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals away from you.” Tommy said angrily.He was furious that Eleanor dared to act like this, showing no regard for the Marshall family or Grandpa.Mr. Marshall sat in his armchair, his face dark and brooding. He struck the ground firmly with his cane and said sternly: “Hmph! Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals belongs to the Marshall family. Eleanor has no right! If I don’t give it to her, she can’t take it. And if I do give it to her, she can’t refuse!"Hearing this, Tommy finally gained confidence and signaled to his father with a glance.Walden quickly said: “Father, although the Marshall family is currently under your control, what if Eleanor is really using this opportunity to blackmail us? We need to be cautious, and we must also be

Tommy turned around, his face filled with worry, and stared at the messenger, asking: “What the hell is going on? Why are the three major companies suddenly announcing that they’re halting cooperation? And why do we have to pay compensation? Did we breach the contract?"The messenger, trembling all over, replied: “Young Master, I don’t know either. They just sent that notice and also mentioned..."But before the messenger could finish, another person rushed in. Seeing the scene before him, he became anxious and quietly stood aside, not daring to say anything.Old Mr. Marshall, noticing the last person who had entered, raised his hand and asked: “What do you want to say?"The newcomer hesitated before stepping forward respectfully and reporting: “Sir, just now, someone from the Drug Administration Bureau delivered a notice. They said that our company, Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals, has many violations, and we are ordered to address all issues within seven days and submit a report. If not,

Meanwhile, back with Alexander and Eleanor, seeing Alexander had turned off his phone, Eleanor grew anxious and nudged him with her foot: “What are you doing?"Alexander grabbed her smooth, white ankle, gently setting it down, and said: “Tommy is likely coming to beg you. It seems Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals is in crisis, and they need Welsh Max Corporation's cooperation to pull through."Eleanor was stunned, looking at Alexander holding her ankle, and asked: “How can you be so sure?"Alexander chuckled and replied: “I just checked the news. Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals has lost all its partners. The three major pharmaceutical companies in Golden Harbor have announced they are cutting ties with Eco Vision. Moreover, Eco Vision is facing over a billion in compensation claims and is under scrutiny from the Food and Drug Administration.""What?" Eleanor was alarmed. She jumped up from the sofa, pulling Alexander along, saying: “Then we should quickly bring them the contract. Right now, only

At that moment, Walden and Tommy’s faces were grim, filled with resentment as they glared at Alexander: “Why don’t you just get out?"Alexander chuckled, saying nothing as he turned to go inside. Tommy sneered and followed him in.Bang!The door slammed shut.Tommy, standing at the door, got his nose hit by the closing door, causing it to bleed. He immediately screamed: “Alexander! You bastard! How dare you do this to me! I won’t let you get away with this!"Walden, also upset for his son, asked a few concerned questions before angrily saying: “This Alexander is really getting out of hand.""Father, what should we do now? Do we really have to bow our heads and apologize?" Tommy asked, unwilling to apologize to that lowly Eleanor, which was as good as asking him to die.Walden shook his head, sighing: “What else can we do? If we don’t, we won’t even be able to get inside."Suddenly, Tommy fell silent, his eyes filled with hatred.Walden took a deep breath, then pressed the doorbell, sp

When Valeria stepped outside, she paused at the door, letting out a couple of chuckles. Then, she took out her phone and sent a message to Peyton: "Peyton, I saw the necklace you gave Eleanor. It’s beautiful. Eleanor seems really happy with it. Why don't you ask her out for dinner and chat?"After that, Valeria headed to the living room.Meanwhile, on the other side, Peyton was drinking and chatting with some friends at a club when he unexpectedly received Valeria’s message. Reading it, he was taken aback.A necklace?What necklace?He had given her a necklace before, but she didn’t accept it.Could it be that Valeria misunderstood something?Peyton replied with a smile: "As long as Eleanor likes it, that's all that matters."Valeria entered the living room, noticing that neither Walden nor Tommy was there, only Alexander and Rodger."Where are your brother and Tommy? Weren't they supposed to apologize to Eleanor? Why did they leave?" Valeria asked.Rodger glanced at Alexander, his ex

Unexpectedly, Alexander suddenly spoke up: “She’s already on her way back. Just give it a few more minutes."In an instant!Everyone’s eyes were focused on Alexander.His words sent a shock through Rodger and Valeria. Just moments ago, they were saying she wouldn’t be back until the afternoon, yet now Alexander was claiming she’d be back in minutes."Alexander, who gave you the right to speak here? Get out! Eleanor clearly went out and won’t be back until this afternoon.” Valeria angrily snapped at Alexander, wanting to kick him out right away.What was he trying to do?Lying right in front of the elder?"Don’t listen to Alexander; he’s just spouting nonsense.” Rodger hastily added, clearly panicking."Hmph!"The elder let out a cold snort, raising his head to look at Alexander and asked: “Was this your idea?"Alexander didn’t deny it and replied: “Yes, it was.""Alexander, I knew you were the one pulling the strings behind this! Grandfather, did you hear that? He admitted it himself!

Please continue reading there.***Looking at the smile on Alexander’s face, Devlin felt as if he was seeing the real-life version of a devil’s grin.The smile was truly terrifying and horrifying. Coupled with the pain in his hand at that moment, Devlin suddenly collapsed, unable to hold on any longer."If I tell you everything, will you let me go? What about my other brothers?" Devlin asked hesitantly."Of course, I’m Alexander, and I’m very trustworthy. I’ve never gone back on my word.” Alexander said."Alright, then I’ll tell you. What do you want to know?"Finally, Devlin admitted defeat.Gabe scratched his head, silently thinking that Young Master Reynolds was really something. Besides, Young Master Reynolds was cruel enough. Stepping on one of Devlin’s hands, he was definitely the epitome of a villainous character.Laurie looked at Nana and,

Alexander, unaware that a large operation was being set up against him, was sitting in the front passenger seat, feeling a headache.Nana and Laurie were in the back seat, arguing the entire way, neither willing to give up. The two were still bickering without lifting a finger.Alexander tried to intervene several times but couldn’t stop them, so he closed his eyes and pretended not to hear anything.Nico secretly chuckled and whispered to Alexander: “Master, isn’t this the so-called happy headache?”“Happy headache, my ass. It’s just a headache, not happy at all. Why has it turned into this? This shouldn’t be happening.” Alexander rubbed his temples, beginning to reflect on the past and wondering where he had gone wrong. Why had Laurie’s attitude changed so drastically?Could it be that Laurie had upgraded her tactics, feeling that the previous approach didn’t work on him, and thus had switched to a new one?The more Alexander thought about it, the more confused he became. Finally, h

The mention of Tome was like a scar being ripped open in Laurie's heart. Nana's blunt remark made her grit her teeth in anger."Hmph! You little vixen, are you after Alexander? I’m warning you, Alexander belongs to the Marshall family. You’re not allowed to have any ideas about him. Eleanor, you need to be careful of this little seductress. If you want, I can help you keep an eye on Alexander and go with him."Laurie finished speaking and smugly glanced at Nana, feeling as though she had come up with a perfect excuse.Nana clenched her teeth in fury, wanting to pounce on Laurie and bite her.The two women glared at each other, refusing to back down.Nico, meanwhile, quietly moved aside, feeling like he was watching a palace drama unfold. He couldn’t help but admire his master—only a truly powerful man could have women fighting over him.If it were an ordinary man, no woman would care.Let alone compete for him. A man who had women competing for him was proof of his greatness.Alexande

Queen Master’s face darkened further, and the sense of unease in her heart grew stronger."So you’re saying that Alexander is much stronger than you?""He’s stronger than me, but if it came to a life-and-death battle, neither of us could be certain of the outcome.” the head of the guards replied, feeling that if it were a desperate fight, he still might be able to defeat Alexander, or at least injure both of them."Increase my protection level. I need the tightest security!"Queen Master said seriously."Understood, I will implement the highest level of protection."Queen Master weakly waved her hand, and the head of the guards smartly stepped back.Wilbur whispered: “Don’t worry too much about Alexander. I’ve already contacted several experts. In the end, we can make him unable to withstand it.""What about the development of the enhancement drug?" Queen Master asked abruptly.Wilbur was momentarily stunned, then quickly responded: “The enhancement drug isn’t stable yet. It has very

After hearing Alexander’s report, Ward immediately understood what was going on.“Young Master Reynolds, I know those people. They are from Southern Mountain, a bunch of hot-headed drifters. They know how to keep a low profile, and it’s basically impossible to catch them. The only way is to drive them away. How about this: I can send a small team to watch over your construction site and scare them off.”Ward intended to ensure his lover’s safety more securely. Since he had decided to curry favor, he would go all the way. He directly dispatched a small team to the construction site as security guards to make sure nothing happened there.“This only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. Moreover, if they pull off something else, we’ll be even more passive. Do you know their background? Tell me directly.”Ward pondered for a moment, tapping his fingers on a file on the table.“They have ties to the geomancer from last time. I suspect that it’s people from his sect who are unwilling to

After visiting Mary, Alexander, Nana, and Nico left the hospital and drove back to the company.Pushing open Eleanor’s office door, Alexander saw her working and smiled: “Honey, what are you busy with?"Eleanor lifted her head to look at Alexander, then glanced at Nana and Nico behind him, feeling slightly suspicious.Earlier, Alexander had left on his own, but now he had returned with Nana—and Nico was with them too?Could it be that Nico was secretly helping Alexander and Nana stay in touch, covering for their secret meetings?A flood of thoughts raced through Eleanor’s mind, and she gradually felt a tinge of jealousy."What were you all doing just now?" Eleanor’s voice was slightly strained."I just finished some business and happened to run into Nana and Nico wandering around, so I took them to visit Mary. Lately, Mary has been learning all sorts of nonsense from the patients in the neighboring ward. Once her treatment is done, we should bring her home as soon as possible.""Oh, a

Joaquin sensing Queen Master’s thoughts, spoke slowly: “I think Alexander only has a few tricks up his sleeve. Xavier is an unruly fighter, relying solely on his physical strength. Anyone who undergoes proper training can defeat him.”“Joaquin, do you really think so?” Queen Master asked coldly.Joaquin shuddered, lowering his head in a panic, his voice mumbled: “I just speak my mind. I’m not saying it’s necessarily right.”“Hmph, while I may not understand everything, I know the basics. Xavier may not be a top-tier fighter, but he can still reach the level of a high-ranking fighter.”“Among the Dragon Sect’s guards, there are plenty of people stronger than Xavier. But if we talk about who could easily overpower Xavier like Alexander did, I’m afraid not many could. Over the years, Alexander must have been biding his time. His ambition is truly terrifying!”Wilbur quickly added: “You’re right. Alexander really has a fierce ambition. I’ve seen through this guy’s ambitions long ago. He m

Joaquin respectfully said to Queen Master: “Thank you for upholding justice for me, Queen Master. I am truly, truly grateful.”“Enough with the pretense. You said you wanted to get close to Alexander and obtain the secret key. Why haven’t I seen any progress?”“I’ve been waiting for the right opportunity. I can’t make it too obvious, don’t you think?” Joaquin replied with a sycophantic smile.“Hmph!”Queen Master snorted coldly, dismissing Joaquin.Just then, Wilbur entered with a tournament schedule in hand, frowning slightly: “The match between Alexander and Xavier has been canceled. I’m still investigating the exact reason.”“Canceled? What happened?” Queen Master’s expression darkened with displeasure.Knock, knock, knock.The door to the private room was knocked upon, and Thorne entered with a bowed head, his posture humble.Thorne only knew that the people inside this room were of high status, but he had no idea who they were or what their ranks were.“Good evening.

Alexander took Nico and Nana to Mary’s hospital room. When Mary saw Alexander, she immediately rushed into his arms and happily kissed his face.“Dad, you finally came to visit me. Who are these uncle and aunt?”Mary tilted her head and looked at Nico and Nana.Nico’s face twitched. Based on status, he should be on the same level as Mary, but he wasn’t sure whether he was considered an older or younger brother of Mary.“Mary, this is my disciple Nico. You can call him ‘brother’.” Alexander said.“Ah?” Mary looked at Nico carefully, and Nico forced out an awkward yet polite smile.“This is my brother? But he’s older than Dad.”Mary said innocently.Nico’s smile cracked, feeling a bit uncomfortable.“Mary, this is your sister Nana.” Alexander continued with the introduction.Nana puffed her cheeks and said unhappily: “Alexander, the way you introduced me isn’t right. Mary should call me ‘aunt,’ otherwise the family hierarchy will be messed up.”“She’s so beautiful, she’s not an aunt, sh
