Chapter 64
Felix was trembling all over with fear.
“Ed, you have to save me…”
Edmund let out a mocking laugh and lowered his head to look at
his phone, when he suddenly saw the message Felix had sent
him earlier.
“By the way, speaking of which, why didn’t you ever tell us that
your sister–in–law has such an impressive uncle? Or did you not
know either?”
Edmund frowned slightly and looked up to ask Felix, “Neeta has
a very impressive uncle?”
Felix was still immersed in his fear of Woodrow and didn’t hear
a word Edmund said.
It wasn’t until Edmund kicked him that he snapped back to
reality. “Huh?”
“I’m asking you, what impressive uncle does Neeta have?”
“It’s Mr. Vance!” Felix said. “The current president of the
Calchester Branch of the Drayton Group! He’s really impressive!

If I hadn’t been with my friend today, how could I have gotten
into a party with him there?”
Edmund’s face stiffened. He suddenly remembered the middle-
aged man who had appeared in the hospital room when
Kaneeta was hospitalized with a concussion.
At the time, he had just assumed it was some poor relative of
Kaneeta’s.
So, he was actually a high–ranking executive at the Drayton
Group?
In the past, the president of a branch company wouldn’t have
been worth his attention.
But now, he had been looking for a way to cooperate with the
Drayton Group.
If he could get Atticus to make an introduction, maybe there
would be an opportunity.
Why had Kaneeta never mentioned that her relative was a
high–ranking executive at the Drayton Group?
Edmund immediately searched for Atticus online.
According to the information online, Atticus was no ordinary
Chapter 64
figure. Decades ago, he had already been working under the
chairman of the Drayton Group and had earned Matthew’s
deep trust. This time, he was sent to Calchester because the
Calchester Branch of the Drayton Group had encountered
major problems.
He was someone who could speak directly to Matthew himself!
Edmund’s brows furrowed tightly.
But that day in the hospital room, he hadn’t exactly been polite
to Atticus…
Should he ask Kaneeta to put in a good word for him?
But she was still upset with him.
What if she refused to help if he asked?
“Ed? What are you thinking about! Did you even hear what I
just said? Please help me, if Woodrow really wants revenge, I
won’t be able to handle it!”
Edmund said coldly, “Why are you so anxious? Woodrow might
not even bother with you.”
Felix felt his pride wounded and looked a little resentful.

But then again, a bruised ego was still better than being targeted
by Woodrow for revenge, right?
Edmund wasn’t wrong–Woodrow hadn’t even glanced at him
today.
“Why is Neeta’s uncle’s last name Vance?” Edmund suddenly
asked.
Felix was stumped by the question. “Huh? Well, maybe he’s not
her biological uncle, just a distant relative. But Mr. Vance is
really good to her, always looking out for her. Otherwise, he
wouldn’t have brought her to the party!”
Edmund recalled that Atticus had indeed shown a lot of concern
for Kaneeta in the hospital room that day.
The more he thought about it, the more he regretted it.
If only he had known earlier that Kaneeta’s relative was a high-
ranking executive at the Drayton Group, then he…
At that moment, the hospital room door was suddenly pushed
open.
Standing in the doorway was Nyasia.
Her eyes were red as she looked at Edmund, saying nothing.

Felix couldn’t help but get excited.
Time for some gossip again!
