Capítulo 664


    L could not bear to listen to Evan any longer. “I don’t see any opportunity!” she said adamantly.


    “L, how can you not see such a great opportunity? Bruce has be mentally disabled. Do you


    understand what that means?” Evan asked, pressing on.


    Impatiently, L forcefully pushed his hand away. “Can you stop causing trouble? What does his


    mental disability have to do with me? You can do whatever you want but do not involve me. I must take


    care of my health and bear your little brother.”


    Taken aback by her words, Evan quickly embraced her waist, gently coaxing her. “L, what’s wrong?


    Everything was fine, why are you angry again? Why are you saying such hurtful words? I promised you


    we’ll have a child together.”


    L struggled to break free from his embrace and questioned, “Huh, how do I know when you’ll have a


    child with me? I’m already 32 years old this year, and it’ll be toote if I do not have a child soon. Liam


    has already said he’s willing to undergo an IVF with me. I cannot wait anymore. I must get pregnant


    this year!”


    Evan furrowed his brow and asked, “L, you love me. How can you have a child with Liam?”


    “Stop joking. I’m already your stepmother!” L retorted.

    “Darling, can you stop being angry? Let’s have a child today? Can we not use protection? Let’s aim for


    a direct hit,” Evan suggested.


    “Just leave me alone. I’m getting annoyed…” L replied.


    “Sweetheart, what’s wrong?” Evan tightly held her and said, “I know I’ve been neglecting you these


    past few days, and you’re not feeling well. But I’m nning for our future. Consider it. Bruce’s assets


    are worth billions, not to mention the countless jewelry, antiques, and properties. Don’t you want them?


    Aren’t you tempted?”


    “Just because you want something does not mean you’ll get it. Those are Bruce’s assets, and you’re


    not his son. Why should you inherit his stuff?” L retorted.


    A hint of uncontroble greed appeared in Evan’s eyes, and he said with ambition, “My cousin is


    completely mentally disabled now. As long as we control him, his assets will be ours. Think about it,


    several billion dors in assets. Once we get our hands on them, what’s the point of us struggling for


    the rest of our lives?”


    “Huh, can you stop daydreaming? He’s just temporarily not in his right mind. Who knows when he’ll


    recover. Then, all your efforts will be in vain,” L said.


    “That’s why we need to seize the opportunity and strike first,” Evan said, wearing a sinister smile. “I’ve


    thought about it. We need to take action now while he’s under this condition. Even if he recovers one


    day, we’ll already have control of his assets. We can say he’s mentally ill and have him sent to a mental


    hospital.”


    L crossed her arms, sneering. “And what about Joanna? That woman is not to be underestimated.


    Will she stand by and watch you send Bruce to a mental hospital?”


    “Hmph, she and my cousin are no longer remarried. What right does she have to interfere? Besides,


    when the timees, she won’t have a choice but to agree!” Evan dered.


    After thinking for a moment, L began to waver. “Evan, Liam already has a lot of assets. I think…”


    “This matter has to be handled by Liam! So, continue to influence him in the future and make him refile


    thewsuit against Joanna,” Evan said.


    Hearing this, L could not help but sneer sarcastically as she said, “Really? You just had Liam


    withdraw the charges against Joanna, and now you want him to file them again? What do you think he


    will do?”


    Evan sighed with regret. “There’s nothing we can do. We thought Bruce had fully recovered! Who knew


    fate would help us again and make him mentally disabled again? He’s practically no different from a


    vegetable now. Liam naturally has the qualifications to apply for guardianship. Besides, that woman,


    Joanna, will try everything to remarry my cousin. What we need to do now is to stop them from


    remarrying at all costs. At the same time, we need Liam to expedite the process of bing Bruce’s


    guardian.”


    L listened to Evan, but she was still hesitant. She stammered, “Evan, Liam has enough assets. I


    think…”


    Before she could finish, Evan interrupted her, saying, “One should be ambitious in life! Even if Liam has


    a lot of assets, it’s still only approximately 10 billion dors. Most of which are in shares and real estate.


    And don’t forget, Liam has a son and a daughter. Who knows how many illegitimate children he has in


    secret? Even if we divide the assets in the future, there won’t be much left. That’s why I must think of


    other ways to ensure we can live freely andfortably in the second half of our lives.”


    L listened, her eyes reflecting contemtion.


    Indeed, Liam’s total personal assets amounted to around 10 billion dors!


    But most of these assets were not in cash, mainly consisting of shares and real estate. If they were to


    be sold in the future, their value would decrease significantly.


    Even if they were to divide the assets in the future, Evan might not receive 400 million dors! After all,


    the assets included houses,pany shares, and other non-liquid assets.


    “I’m not sure if I can convince Liam,” L said.


    “L, I believe you can. You’re the best; no one else will help me like you. As long as you can influence


    Liam and sessfully seize Bruce’s assets, I… I’ll marry you! We can go abroad and enjoy life. Liam is


    getting old. Do you really want to serve him for the rest of your life?” Evan pleaded.
