Capítulo 65: CHAPTER 65: BEST SOLUTION

"I am willing to help you."

The CEO of the KSAN Co. looked at the vicious man smirking at his own plan.

"It's payback time. Don't you want to do it?" He challenged him.

"Do you think I still trust you? After your bitter sweet betrayal? I'm sorry but I am not that stupid to believe and risk my trust to an unworthy person like you, so better leave and remember not to show your sneaky face ever again." The old man stood up and was about to leave but Barry stopped him.

"They framed me. I already told you about it, didn't I?" He sighed as he placed the cup of tea on the table. "I didn't have a choice back then. I'll lose everything, my family, my son and all that we've been working for. That's why I had to do it."

"You were worried about your wife and your son but you never thought about mine. I lost them, they left me and I have nothing now. Although I established a big company, the fact that they're gone from this world left an excruciating pain that no amount of money can ever heal and remove." The old man faced Barry. "You only cared about yourself back then… and until now, your selfishness really sickens me."

"Jack, that's not true. I tried to save them but I was too late. I deeply regretted my choices that time and I was meaning to visit you but …" He paused for a second as sadness filled his eyes. "Things got out of hand that time. I'm sorry."

"Whatever you say, still, I won't give you that chance again. You don't have a place here any longer."

"Jack, please… I'm here to pay what I owe you. And this time, I'm serious."

Jack Mo, the KSAN Co. Ceo hissed mockingly. "Even if you kill that old woman, you can't bring my family back to life again. My wife who died of heart attack and my daughter who died due to depression leading to suicide, do you think they will come back to life? If you can, then maybe I'll consider."

"But even so, you can still get the justice they deserve. Will you really be okay losing them that way? If it wasn't for that old woman's prying lawyer, they could have lived."

"It was never okay. But you were also a bridge that paves their way to death." He looked at him accusingly. "So don't try to wash off your hands about that matter."

"Jack, it was Suzette's fault. All your misfortune and my misfortune was all caused by that old fox. I'll say this again and I will keep on telling you this, they forced me and left me with no other choice. I was young and naïve which they took advantage off. That's why I came back to seek for revenge. For you and me."

Jack sneered viciously. "I don't want to go back to my old ways any longer. I am already contented with who and what I am now."

"Then let me do it for us." Barry's tone was filled with confidence. "I'll do everything, you can just watch from here and let me seek vengeance for the both of us."

"You can do anything you want but don't get me involved. I don't have anything to do with you and your unworthy retribution. I'm done with you."

"Just do me a favor, Jack. Just one."

The old man halted and thought for a few seconds. He then sighed in defeat and faced the man. Too bad, he still loves his best friend despites all the betrayals. Looking at the old man's eyes, Barry knew that he still cares for him.

"Give me an executive position in your company."

"'What?!" Jack furrowed his brows surprisingly. "W H Y?"

"I need such power to approached my son. You should have known it already that Suzette appointed him as the new company president of the Enchanteur chemicals."

Jack was examining the man silently. Of course he knew that Barry's son was the new ceo of that rival company. And that young man was his target in the first place and not the old woman. To destroy the man successfully means disabling that old fox and her beloved company.

He just can't tell Barry about it because he might get in his way.

"And what is it to you? Are you going to earn his trust?"

Barry smirked evilly. "You're right. I need to get my son back from that old fox's grip. With Marcus on my side, I can easily destroy that old woman."

He stood up and walked near the big window and looked outside. "The easiest way to cut the wings of that old fox is through her beloved grandson." He smirked evilly as he faced the old man. "Marcus is still a young man especially in managing the company. He may have watched his grandmother but when it comes to managing the business, he's still novice. And I doubt if he ever knew the underground transactions either. Ha-ha!"

"What's your point?"

"It is always easier to strike him to were his vulnerability is." He grinned.

"Nasty." The old man was a bit disappointed at him. "He's your son, you should at least have a sense of doubts whenever your plan is going to injured him. Honestly, you could've just protect and support him, moreover help him conquer his weaknesses."

"Guess I am truly evil." He sneered. "I'm not that vicious to kill him. I'll just use him."

The old man sneered within him. If Barry doesn't have an ounce of affection and concern for his son, then he should not be a threat. He could also be a father who destroys his own flesh and blood. Hmm… Looks exciting though. Watching the son destroyed by his own father looks interesting.

"If that's what you want then fine, I'll give you a position in my company. I don't care whatever you do to your so-called family, just don't drag me if things go wrong with you."

"Of course." He smiled meaningfully at the old man.

Jack sighed and was ready to leave but Barry stopped him for the second time.

"What is it now?"

"It's about your newly launched product."

"What about it?"

"You better pull it out from the market as soon as possible."

"What? And why should I do that?"

"'Please heed my advice." Then he handed him the brown enveloped that he's been holding since he entered. "I didn't want to pry but since you made me a part of your company now, protecting the company should be one of my main concern too."

The old man brought out the files in it and started browsing one by one. He didn't read everything yet, but Barry knew from his face that he's beyond mad.

"IRIS!" Filled with anger, he called out his secretary. It didn't take a minute when Iris came inside in a rush.

"Mr. President…"

"Call Manager Ling and his superior, NOW!"

"Y-yes, President." Iris went out and immediately punched their numbers.

"You… How did you know all about this?" The old man looked at the man suspiciously. "Have you been spying my company since the start?"

"No. I will never do that. I did a little spying but not to you." He smirked. "I've been watching my son and his development as the new president but as I have thought, he's not as vicious as his grandmother. My man saw one of your employee lurking near the Enchanteur vicinity so I thought of doing a favor for you."

He even gave him some pictures showing that the manager bribed one of Marcus' employees. "But don't worry, I have the best solution for this." He chuckled playfully.
