CHAPTER 828: CHAPTER 828: THAT WOMAN IS JUST AN OUTSIDER

After Alaric Faulkner shook off the pursuers, he took another round to ensure there was no danger before heading to the laboratory.

"Were you frightened?"

He looked at Eleanor Sterling with concern, as she was not alone now, and the thrilling and dangerous car chase earlier might have been too much for her to handle.

"Daddy, do we need to have someone come to protect us?"

"No need. After his first failure, he won’t attempt a second assassination so quickly."

Alaric Faulkner thought for a moment and then said, "Can we find out who sent the assassins?"

Eleanor Sterling said, "It seems Franklin Faulkner can’t hold back anymore. Before the Family Head meeting, he will undoubtedly make frequent small moves, and such things will happen again."

She wasn’t worried about her own situation; she was mainly afraid that the two children might get dragged into it.

A mother shares her children’s feelings, and perhaps sensing Eleanor’s worries, Estelle Sterling said, "Sister Eleanor, don’t worry about us. We brothers are not that weak."

"Yes, we’re quite strong."

Alaric Faulkner frowned and said, "Eleanor, you should stay at home for the time being and don’t go out. I’ll move the laboratory to the Faulkner Family."

"Okay." Eleanor Sterling nodded.

Suddenly, she thought of others. If Franklin Faulkner failed to harm her, would he also target Hazel Langley?

After all, dealing with Hazel Langley could also indirectly hold Jasper Faulkner in check. Eleanor Sterling asked, "I’m a bit worried about Hazel. She’s a public figure, a big target."

Alaric Faulkner frowned, "Then let her stay with you."

"Okay, I’ll give her a call."

Eleanor Sterling took out her phone and called Hazel Langley.

A few minutes later, she said, "I’ve already contacted her. We’ll go find her together after we’re done donating blood."

Five-star hotel.

Franklin Faulkner personally got involved and contacted Garrett Faulkner, intending to incite internal conflict among the Faulkner brothers.

After sitting down, Franklin Faulkner immediately greeted him with a smile, "President Faulkner, it’s an honor to meet you."

Garrett Faulkner also responded with a polite smile, "Mr. Franklin, you are too kind. What brings you to me?"

"I came to you for something important. I heard that the Faulkner Family is about to select a new Family Head. I wonder if you’re interested." Franklin Faulkner asked very directly.

Garrett Faulkner seemed unprepared and paused for a moment, then smiled, "The Old Master has it all arranged. There’s no need for us juniors to worry."

Among the sons, he was the least competitive, so even if he had any thoughts, he didn’t dare show them openly.

"President Faulkner, there’s no need to be modest. Your capability is no less than your two brothers, just lacking a bit of support."

Garrett Faulkner secretly agreed with this statement.

Indeed, he was just lacking some support. His capabilities weren’t lacking, and the position of Family Head should have been his.

"Even if we don’t agree on a collaboration today, we can consider it a friendly dinner between friends, don’t you think?"

Garrett Faulkner nodded repeatedly, "Mr. Franklin, you’re very kind."

"I hear Old Master Faulkner intends to hand over the vast Faulkner estate to Eleanor Sterling?"

Franklin Faulkner poured him a glass of wine and asked in a low voice.

Mentioning this, it’s hard not to bring up that day when they were cornered by reporters at the Faulkner Family gate. Old Master Faulkner did indeed say such a thing.

Garrett Faulkner knew in his heart that Old Master Faulkner wasn’t joking.

Finding an outlet, he drank a glass of wine and began to vent, "Yes, the Old Master, I don’t know what he’s thinking. That woman is just an outsider.

What does it matter if she has two sons, even her sons shouldn’t be in line for it!"
