Chapter 542
The folds between Ivan''s brows grew deeper upon hearing Ken’s words.
Those words from Ken’s delicate mouth were like tiny needles that pierced Ivan''s eardrums—harsh and
brutal, yet, honest and reasonable.
"Are you sure? Selena has been gentle and kind since young. She wouldn''tpete with me to be the
heir, right? If this happened in the past, it would be possible, but Fane''s pay is quite high, and Selena''s
a s well. The family can livefortably without much worry," Ivan thought out loud.
"Haha, Young Master Taylor, it’s wrong to think in this way! Can''t you see how many assets and
properties the Taylor family possesses now? They can be considered as a second-ss aristocratic
family! With an abundance of valuable properties and possessions, do you think Selena will remain the
same? She''s from your generation as well. Same generation, same thoughts, right? Besides, no one
"Okay, let''s not talk about whether or not she willpete with you for the throne. Even if she doesn’t
want topete, your Grandpa will give her half of everything in the future, am I right? Do you really
want to give half of it to her?" Neil echoed smilingly, fully intending to remind Ivan of his reality.
Ivan’s face sank. "Of course not! I''m the only man of this generation in the Taylor family! Grandpa
kicked her out of the family before! How could she be so shameless to involve herself in the
dismemberment of Taylors'' properties?
“You and Selena share the same roots and are from the same generation. Both of you are Grandpa
Taylor’s grandchildren, so she naturally has the right to inherit the property. Not to mention. Grandpa
Taylor is wise and sharp. If he thinks that you''re incapable and that you''ll weaken the Taylors, he would
not think twice before making Selena the heir!" Neil sneered in a cold and mocking tone.
The more Ivan thought about it, the more h e realized the truth in Neil and Hugo''s analysis. Old man
Taylor''s attitude toward Fane and Selena had changed too much today. He even eulogized Selena for
her business talent and filial piety after just a few sses of wine. Throughout the conversation, he did
not mention Ivan at all.
Ivan balled his fists tightly when he thought of the episode. "I will ask Xena to give Fane the pill
tomorrow!"
"Don''t rush it. You have to grasp the atmosphere and find the best timing. Don''t raise Fane’s
suspicion!"
Ken nodded his head andmented," Fortunately, this pill is very strong. It''s odorless and tasteless,
and it dissolves within seconds! If not, I''m afraid Fane might be able to find out. After all, he’s a doctor.
He surely has the medical knowledge!"
Ivan was immediately petrified at his words. "You’re right! He knows medical stuff. What if he''s able to
treat himself and be cured of the poison? Does the poison really work?"
Haha! Don''t you worry! This pill was not easy to find. We bought it at an extremely high price. This
chronic poison pill was specially developed and made by the most prominent poison-making family in
the southwest—the Miao family. The person who consumes this will not feel anything a t all at the
beginning, but as the days pass, he will grow weak in his four limbs, slowly losing vitality before
eventually dying!"
Ken rejoiced and continued, "And only the maker has the antidote for this kind of poison. It is derived
from dozens of medicinal materials, how can it be treated s o easily, right?”
Ken''s confidence offered Ivan’s heart some calmness. He felt relieved. I''ll invite Xena for lunch
tomorrow then! A little benefit for her would do the magic. I''ll ask her to find a good time to poison
Fane. After all, it''s been a long time since Xena’s episode. It’s about time Fane lowers his guard around
Xena.”
"That''s perfect! Once Fane dies, it gives us the chance to pursue Selena! She will be a member
of another family and have her surname changed. That way, she loses the right topete with you for

the throne! Anyway, she wouldn''t even need to fight with you once she marries a rich man, am I right?"
Ken was hopeful as though saw a light at the end of the tunnel as he thought about their n. He felt
that he was the most promising candidate, that Selena would pick him over the others. After all, he was
closest to Selena before Fane returned.
Although Michael had a pretty good rtionship with Selena, he was ugly and fat. Selena would
definitely scratch the fat guy off her list.
On the other hand, Neil Hugo only came to know Selena muchter. He was aplete pervert who
only drooled over Selena''s beauty. There was no emotional foundation for them to build a marriage on.
Besides, Neil was infamous for being a yboy!
Therefore, after analyzing all the potential candidates, he was the most promising one. It was only
natural for Selena to pick him!
"It makes sense, it does make sense! And when Fane dies, she''ll definitely lose her fighting spirit for
some time. She may even iste herself and degenerate forever! By that time, Grandpa will be even
more disappointed and change his perspective o f me again!" Ivan ended his final analysis o n this
matter. Soon, the three of them dispersed.
After Ken separated from the others, he brought some bodyguards with him and headed to the
hospital.
