Love Unspoken

Chapter 1447 Aron lost it, throwing stuff around and yelling, "Hugo, you all just stand there watching, expectingto handle this mess alone? No way! If you guys are heartless, get ready for the fallout. Worst case, we all go down together!" Hugo banged the table and shot back, "This is all on you. You can't fix it, and now you want to drag the whole family down with you." Someone else piped up, "If this isn't sorted out and it comes to a fight, Aron can go to the battlefield himself!" "Cut the sarcasm. I don't believe that thing just magically appeared in my company. Don't any of you have any suspicions?" Aron snapped. "What are you implying? That we set you up on purpose?" Aron fired back, "Who knows? Seeing how quick you all are to throwunder the bus, you know who it is." "That's ridiculous. If it were us, would we have waited until now? And we wouldn't use a method that risks the whole family. Don't shift the blame. This is your mess! Think about it. Have you pissed off too many people, dragging the whole family into your mess?" The argument went on and on, but something clicked for Aron.

Even with their internal squabbles, they wouldn't do something this reckless. If it backfired, it could becan international issue. The whole country could be in trouble. Who could it be? A npopped into Aron's head. The Lynch family had its share of internal fights, but nothing this big. But after Alexander cback, things went south pretty quickly. It was easy to suspect him.

Aron suddenly turned to Zeke, "Zeke, got anything to say?" Zeke, who had been quiet, looked up. "What do you wantto say?" Aron, looking serious, said, "The son you brought back, are you sure he really wants to be part of the family?" Zeke frowned. "Aron, what are you getting at? Are you blamingnow?" "No, that's not it. Just a friendly reminder, if Alexander did this, do you really think he'd willingly be under your control?" Aron asked.

Zeke was taken aback but didn't show it. "Don't jump to conclusions. Alexander's been back for a while. You know what he's been up to better than I do. If he had that kind of power, we'd all be dead by now!" Aron went quiet.

Under his watch, Alexander hadn't made any moves for over a year and hadn't contacted anyone.

The technology was top secret. No way Alexander could get it under surveillance. Even Aron probably couldn't pull it off.

The room went silent.

Zeke said, "Aron, stay. Everyone else, leave." The others left, leaving just the two of them.

Aron thought Zeke wanted to talk about Alexander, so he quickly sat next to Zeke and whispered, "Zeke, Alexander is really a problem." Zeke shot him a look. "I think you're the real problem here. Needto remind you of your own mess?" Aron was taken aback, then said, "Alexander captured Luke. If he was as indifferent as he seems, without any tricks up his sleeve, would he dare to openly capture Luke?" Zeke didn't mince words. "You know why he captured Luke, right?" "I get it. Zeke, you're protecting him, aren't you?" "Aron, he's my son. I haven't even held you accountable for what you did to him. Should I be on your side?" Zeke shot back.

Aron threw up his hands. "Fine, let's put that aside for now. What about the Future Era issue? It could've been settled with $800 billion. But now, the chief engineer is dead. Who has the power to kill him? Who wants to harm the whole family? We wouldn't do this, obviously. So, who has such a big grudge againstand doesn't care about the family's fate? Who could it be?" Zeke frowned deeply. Everything pointed to Alexander.

But Zeke couldn't figure out why Alexander would do this.

If the Lynch family fell, what would he gain? Zeke rubbed his temples. "Aron, save your breath. You have to take responsibility for this. Don't worry, as long as you take the blame, I'll find a way to help you." Aron's face twisted, and he stared at Zeke. "Zeke, are you really this heartless?" Zeke didn't budge.

Aron suddenly laughed. "Fine, Zeke. I won't admit to this. If I have to go down, I'll take you all with me. I might as well make a bigger scene and start a war." Zeke sneered, "Aron, do you really think you can make a scene?" "What do you mean?" Aron asked.

Zeke casually tossed a stack of documents. "See for yourself." A sense of dread washed over Aron. He grabbed the documents, opened them, and his face went pale.

"Where did you get this?" he asked.

Zeke said, "Doesn't matter. If I leak this, what storm can you stir up? Then, it won't just be Future Era Just by Future Eram coming after you. Every buyer who bought our products will want your head." Aron, pale-faced, slumped into his chair.

In an instant, he realized this wasn't a conspiracy against the Lyneh family. It was a conspiracy against him ΕΠ alone. No wonder Zeke was protecting Alexander. Maybe they conspired to bring him down.

Even if Aron didn't take the blame, Zeke would push him out. Then, this document would conveniently "leak," and Zeke could claim to be setting things straight. People might even applaud. Aron's so-called connections were maintained with his resources. Now, if the buyers knew the defective products were his doing, what would they do to him? Aron didn't dare to think.

He stared blankly at Zeke, murmuring, "Zeke, if I step up and take the blame, will you really save me?"
