Chapter 830
Jennie Taylor carefully observed Ulric Swanson’s expression as he spoke.
She keenly noticed that when she mentioned Astrid Swanson, Ulric’s expression did not change at all. However, when she mentioned giving Astrid Swanson medicine, Ulric Swanson’s expression turned ugly.
She had been working for Ulric Swanson for a while and immediately determined that Ulric Swanson did not care about Astrid Swanson’s life.
After coming to this conclusion, Jennie Taylor was secretly shocked.
She admitted that she was not a good person. She could even poison her daughter with her own hands.
However, after poisoning her daughter- the conscience who had attacked her felt like a knife was being twisted in her heart. She wished she could go with her daughter.
But Ulric Swanson, it seemed that kinship was not as important to him as what to eat tomorrow.
It would be a miracle if such a ruthless person did not succeed in the end!
However, this also proved that she had not followed the wrong person.
In the current generation, soft-hearted people would be beaten and bullied instead. Only ruthless people could achieve great things.
Jennie Taylor was still thinking, but in the end, she still could not figure out how Ulric Swanson was going to deal with Astrid Swanson.
Even when Ulric Swanson waved her off, Jennie Taylor was still puzzled.
He was not ruthless enough to “get rid of” her directly, nor did he reach out to help his own mother. What exactly was he planning to do?
The next day, Jennie Taylor discovered that Ulric Swanson had finally made his move.
Astrid Swanson’s family was coming over to see Astrid Swanson.
Moreover, there was a legitimate reason. It was the day of Wendell’s burial.
Silverlake was very particular about the date of burial.
In order to wait for a good day, some people could keep the urn of the deceased in the funeral home for more than ten years.
However, Cadence and Wendell’s burial date was very close.
This time, Jennie Taylor finally figured out why Ulric Swanson had remained silent. It turned out that he knew that on this day, the Hunter family people would definitely come looking for Astrid Swanson.
Of course, the Hunter family’s parents were also polite. Before they left, they called Margaret Swanson and asked on the phone why they couldn’t contact their daughter recently.
Margaret Swanson’s expression did not change as she said, “Astrid Swanson went on a business trip. She’s helping Ramon Swanson to discuss a very important project… Wendell’ll be buried tomorrow. I’m afraid she won’t be able to make it back in time.”
“I see… Since Wendell has already gone, it’s just a wisp of smoke that has drifted away. It’s more important for us to be alive. However, if you can contact her, please help us tell her to call us when she’s free.
We miss her very much.”
“Alright, I understand, in-laws.”
Margaret Swanson hung up the phone without changing her expression. Ramon Swanson acted as if he did not hear anything and continued to eat.
It was as if the person on the other end of the phone was not his mother-in-law, and Astrid Swanson was not his wife. He acted as if it had nothing to do with him.
Margaret Swanson looked up and met Ulric Swanson’s gaze. “Your uncle will be buried tomorrow, so we won’t go. You can go over. Your brother hasn’t investigated your matter yet. Remember to come back when it’s over.”
Ulric Swanson’s hands slowly tightened under the dining table, but a smile appeared on his face. “Alright, I understand, Grandma. I’ll go early and come back early.”
What did she mean by he hadn’t found out yet…
Ken Swanson must have deliberately delayed it and locked him up at home for a few more days.
But what was the use of locking him up?
Ridiculous.
However, Ramon Swanson’s attitude still made him angry.
He originally wanted to test Ramon Swanson’s attitude towards Astrid Swanson through the mouths of the Hunter family people.
If there was still room for maneuver, he would reach out and help Astrid Swanson from behind.
Now that he saw Ramon Swanson like this, the last trace of hope in his heart disappeared and was replaced by anger.
They had been husband and wife for many years, but in the end, they were nothing in Ramon Swanson.
The cold-bloodedness in his bones was inherited from Ramon Swanson, right?
However, since Ramon Swanson had made up his mind not to let Astrid Swanson return to her previous position, he did not have to waste his effort.
“I’m done eating. I’ll go upstairs first.”
Ulric Swanson did not look angry at all. He still looked as gentle as jade. He even nodded at Melody before leaving.
Melody looked at Ulric Swanson’s back and could not help but admire him.
If it were her, it would be very difficult for her to smile when her biological mother was in such a situation.
Compared to being heartless and cold-blooded, even if she was reborn, she was not even one-thousandth of Ulric Swanson’s ruthlessness.
However, she was very curious. What would Ulric Swanson do next?
Ignoring Astrid Swanson?
After all, she was his biological mother. He came out of her stomach and was the person who gave him life. Could he be so heartless and not plan to help his mother at all?
As long as it was a human, it was impossible, right?
Therefore, Melody kept a close eye on Ulric Swanson for the next few days.
Especially on the day of Wendell’s funeral, she sent Aaron Berg to secretly follow Ulric Swanson. In the end, Ulric Swanson really obediently attended the funeral and returned to the manor.
Not to mention doing anything, he didn’t even say a word to anyone.
Was he not concerned about his mother yet? Or was it because he couldn’t think of a way to deal with it?
Melody did not relax and let Aaron Berg and Spencer continue to watch Ulric Swanson in shifts.
However, even when Astrid Swanson had a mental breakdown or was talking crazy, Ulric Swanson still did not move.
On the morning of the fourth day, Astrid Swanson went completely crazy. In her frenzy, she bit off a mouthful of flesh on the back of her hand.
Ramon Swanson immediately called for a car to send Astrid Swanson to the hospital.
However, halfway through, the car collided with a truck and Astrid Swanson died on the spot.
Melody found out about this from Aaron Berg.
Her eyes were filled with shock.
“Ulric Swanson really didn’t care about anything?”
“Yes…”
Melody clenched her fists tightly.
“Crazy!”
The enemy she was facing was not a normal person at all, but a lunatic!
In her previous life, she was so innocent that she didn’t need to be surprised when she died in his hands.
To put it bluntly, in her previous life, Mabel Fox pretended to have a heart attack and wanted to dig out her heart to save Mabel’s life. How could someone as smart as Ulric Swanson not notice?
It was obvious that he had planned this from the beginning. Even Mabel Fox was a chess piece on his chessboard.
It took a while for Melody to calm down. She looked up at Aaron Berg and said, “Pay attention to the movements of Silverlake’s upper-class circle on the Internet. the Swanson Group’s CEO’s wife died just like that. There will definitely be all kinds of speculation outside.”
“Miss Fox, don’t worry about this.” Aaron Berg took out his phone and flipped through the news. “Mr. Ramon has already explained it to the outside world.”
Melody Fox looked down and saw that it was the Swanson Group’s obituary.
It begins with the Swanson family and the rest of the company expressing deep sorrow and then states that Astrid Swanson has been immersed in the pain of losing her brother since Wendell died of a sudden emergency.
Astrid, who drove out to relax today, was in a daze, which led to a car accident.
The Swanson Group also paid huge compensation to the owner of the truck that hit Astrid Swanson, even though the other party only suffered minor injuries.
