She actually didn’t know at all that Damian Knight was using her as bait. How much had Damian Knight done for her without her knowing?
"Aren’t you the same?" Isaac Ross gave Summer Monroe a glance and said, "You didn’t make it clear at the time, what kind of enemy is this patient you saved? What happened to you?"
"I..."
"Since you won’t let me call Damian, you at least have to let me know. If anything happens to you, Damian will blame me, and I can’t let anything happen to you."
Helplessly, Summer Monroe had to tell Isaac Ross everything about Willow Grant.
Isaac Ross’s expression became serious upon hearing it.
He adjusted his glasses and said coldly, "The Grant Family deserves no sympathy. It’s just... Damian indeed plans to expand his business footprint to Rivain. In recent years, Rivain’s development has been increasingly good, its GDP almost rivaling Crestfall’s. At this critical moment, tearing faces with the Grant Family is indeed not the best timing. Unless we can strike them down in one blow."
"That’s what I think too, so I’m temporarily keeping this from him. However, I’ve already privately informed The Vanguard. They are collecting evidence of all the Grant Family’s misdeeds, and once the evidence is gathered, we can completely take down the Grant Family."
Isaac Ross nodded, deeply agreeing.
Rather than alerting the enemy now and letting the Grant Family be on guard, it’s better to lay low, gather all the evidence, and directly cause the Grant Family’s collapse.
After all, although the Grant Family sent mercenaries to try to kidnap and get rid of Summer Monroe, they ultimately failed. By then, the Grant Family might just hire a few high-level lawyers, and the most that might happen is some monetary compensation, which won’t harm the Grant Family’s core.
The Vanguard, although a special existence, cannot just arrest people under such circumstances.
Thinking of this, Isaac Ross looked appreciatively at Summer Monroe and marveled, "Boss, with your patience, it’s not just other girls; even I might impulsively directly confront the Grant Family. I truly admire you for this."
Summer Monroe gave a bitter smile and said, "If you, like me, also have to hide your identity and endure humiliation at the Stanton Family for a few months, you would gain this patience too."
Patience is always cultivated, she knows that no matter what she does, including revenge, she can’t rush. Rushing would only lead to missteps.
She looked up at Isaac Ross and said, "So, to ensure nothing goes wrong with the plan, let’s not tell Damian Knight for now."
"Got it, I’ll keep it confidential for you."
Just as he finished speaking, the door to the ward opened.
Ryder Quinn walked in, puzzled, and asked, "Keeping what a secret?"
"Nothing much." Isaac Ross looked at Ryder Quinn, who was scatterbrained, and said, "We were saying not to tell Damian about her fainting just now, to avoid him getting anxious and losing focus on the partnership."
"Oh, oh." Ryder Quinn nodded clumsily and then laughed, "Don’t worry, this is something I’d love to keep a secret!" ƒreewebɳovel.com
He had accidentally held Summer Monroe’s waist earlier, and since he couldn’t keep things to himself, if Damian Knight found out, he might get punched.
That being said, Summer Monroe’s waist was indeed remarkably slender!
It was at this moment that Isaac Ross’s phone rang.
He answered and listened to what the other person said, his expression changed slightly, and after hanging up, he told Summer Monroe, "I need to go over to Julian’s place."
"What’s wrong with him?" Summer Monroe asked quickly.
Isaac Ross sighed and said, "The medicine you prescribed, Julian doesn’t want to take it. I’m going over to persuade him."
"...Alright." Summer Monroe nodded with a complicated expression and said, "You should go quickly, I’m fine here. I just fainted because of some physical exhaustion, and once the IV is done, I’ll head back."
