Chapter 98
A Mercedes whooshed by, heading for the Palazzo.
Gilmore and Claire were sitting in the back seat.
The driver was their loyal bodyguard, Gerald.
Claire did not return to her home with Denton and her parents. Instead, she was in Gilmore’s car.
Because her grandfather had lifted her restrictions, she had the freedom to choose her life. At the same time, Denton wouldn’t interfere in her decisions. That was the reason why she could sit in Gilmore’s car now.
She was ever the moon because Gilmore had earned 100 million from Benjamin! So she wanted to stay with him in the car.
In the back seat, she smiled at Gilmore. “Mr. Emerson must be furious in his office now! The Palmers must hate us so much for taking 100 million from them!“
Gilmore chuckled. “You’re right. He is furious and also thinking of how to deal with me.”
As he spoke to her, his God’s Eye had witnessed what happened in Emerson’s office–such as how Emerson slammed the armrest into pieces and when Wallace suggested sending Marlon to kill him.
Of course, Claire did not know anything about his God’s Eye.
She thought that Gilmore was just guessing like she did.
“Don’t worry. You’re my boyfriend now. No matter how much they hate you, they won’t dare to do anything to you because of my family,” she said to him.
Gilmore nodded.
He knew that the Palmers were wary of the Carters, so they wouldn’t act rashly.
But the Palmers could pay someone else to do the dirty work for them.
Marlon would be that person!
He was the
e most trusted butler of the Chapman family and a true martialist.
Gilmore’s eyes flickered with danger.
It seemed that he had to get rid of that trouble.
But he did not plan to kill Marlon.
There was no blood feud between them, so it was unnecessary to kill him. Gilmore would not act blindly.
Marlon was just a hidden problem.
Gilmore had no intention of killing him yet.
Directly killing someone was the last option he would choose.
Real masters preferred to kill people without leaving a trace.
But Gilmore planned to send the killer to kill the person who had initiated it all. That was what clever people would do.

In other words–Murdera person with a borrowed knife!
Gilmore wanted to apply that trick to Marlon.
But he couldn’t go to find Marlon right now, as he was in the car with Claire.

“Mr. Emerson invited us to the banquet and said that it was an apology, but he just wanted to inform Grandpa and me abour what you did!” Claire was so happy that she couldn’t stop talking,
“They thought that we’d be mad at you and kick you out of the family, and they didn’t expect that we would set up the Evermore Group!”
In fact, Gilmore had used his God’s Eye to foresee what happened in the Atlas Hotel today in advance.
Therefore, that day in Claire’s office, he told her his plan ahead of time.
She knew the plan. Therefore, when Benjamin repeatedly reminded Claire and Mr. Carter that Gilmore had sold the restaurant, they reacted calmly.
Benjamin would fall into the trap and say that he was very willing to pay 100 million for half of the Evermore Diner’s shares and that he didn’t regret it at all.
Just as Gilmore had expected, Benjamin repeatedly demonstrated his loyalty to Claire and the Carter family during the banquet and showed his willingness to pay 100 million for the restaurant.
But when he heard about the Evermore Group and realized that he was in a trap, he could only suffer in silence.
After all, he had already proved his willingness!
Denton was also calm when he heard the deal because Claire had informed him about it all before the banquet.
It was all part of Gilmore’s plan.
Moreover, she told Denton that the 100 million they got from selling the restaurant could solve the financial problem they had regarding opening up dozens of branches in Oakhaven.
By doing that, the Carter family could expand Evermore Diner all over Oakhaven without spending a penny.
How would Denton respond later when he heard about Benjamin’s deal during the banquet?
He would be so proud of Gilmore’s business gift. After all, he sold 50% of the shares of the restaurant for 100 million!
The Palmer family had set up traps from beginning to end.
But they never expected that they would be set up by Gilmore instead.
Gilmore returned to reality from his memories.
He smiled at Claire and said, “Since we have the 100 million for development from Benjamin now, let’s make good use of this money! We’ll open our Evermore Diner branches all over Oakhaven and become the top brand in the market.”
Claire’s eyes glowed with hope as she confidently said, “The next step is to defeat Castronova Ventures and be the boss of the catering industry in Oakhaven!”
“We have enough money now. We need to get the branch done on time. I’ll take care of the recruiting and ingredients supply in the next two days,” Gilmore said solemnly.
Claire nodded and said, “I’ve already sent someone to refurbish the location, and they’re busy working on it. It will be ready to open in half a month.”

She was still curious about how Gilmore would solve the ingredients supply issue.
At the moment, the demand for ingredients was not very high because there was only one restaurant. They could just buy fresh vegetables from a few villages nearby.
However, once all of the branches opened, the demand would be astonishing. By that time, they would need supplies from
border areas.
It was tricky for her to find suppliers in the border areas. On the one hand, the manpower and material resources needed were too large. On the other hand, it would be impossible to deal with all the uncertainties.
However, she trusted Gilmore’s capabilities. She knew that he could handle it.
After all, he had repeatedly proved himself and showed his extraordinary talent by selling 50% of the shares of the restaurant for 100 million!
He was truly magical!
Soon, the car arrived at the Palazzo. Gilmore got out and said to the driver, Gerald, “Take Claire back to the office and pick up Everly on your way back.”
Everly was high school student. In recent days, Gilmore had been driving his car to take her to school and bring her back.
Gerald said, “Okay, after sending Miss Carter off, I’ll pick Everly up at school.”
After hearing that, Claire said to Gilmore, “Hold on. I’m free today. I’m not going back to the office.”
“Then he’ll take you back home,” Gilmore said.
Claire said again, “Not now. I want to stay at your place.”
Gilmore had no choice but to agree. “Alright! Since you want to stay at my house, you’re welcome to do so!” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
When she heard that, a smile lit up her face. She then got out of the car and closed the door.
While watching the couple enter the villa, Gerald shook his head in the car. “Hmm… Something is going to happen. Now I’m jealous. When can I have some good luck with a beautiful lady…
With a sigh, he started the car again and left the villa to pick Everly up.
