Chapter 328 The Ruthless Curtis\u00a0<\/p>\n
He faked his death so he could get out of all the trouble.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If he stayed alive, the people hiding in the shadows would keep following hi\u00a0<\/p>\n
he was dead would they stop paying attention.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Honestly, Curtis could be pretty ruthless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Only if everyone thought\u00a0<\/p>\n
But what else could he do? His wife was pregnant. A pregnant woman needed someone to protect her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDenton\u2019s still young. I hope he can resist temptation and not get tricked,\u201d Adriana said with a sigh.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf he can\u2019t even survive something this simple, how is he supposed to run Lincoln Group?\u201d Curtis said calmly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Still, Adriana noticed a hint of helplessness and worry in his voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At least Denton had his older brother watching over him\u2013protecting him and warning him ahead of time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis had to fight alone back then, one hard step at a time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Those people liked using traps with women\u2013cheap, but effective. They even tried it on Curtis before, but he had seen right through it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cErnest seems suspicious,\u201d Adriana said, looking up at Curtis.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, no need to poke the bear just yet,\u201d Curtis replied. He already knew Ernest\u2019s problem. To handle him, Curtis had to work through Denton.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana understood now. If she could figure it out, Curtis surely had already thought of it and made a plan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At a villa in Haldoria.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton was packing his things in his room when Lily walked in wearing only a bathrobe.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had to get close to him physically before he left.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That was the task Savannah had given her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDenton, when you go abroad, can I come with you?\u201d Lily\u2019s voice trembled. \u201cI don\u2019t want to be away from you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton looked at her seriously. \u201cI\u2019m going to study. It\u2019s not a good idea to bring you. You wouldn\u2019t get a\u00a0<\/p>\n
visa either.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was as straight\u2013laced as ever.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lily froze. She really couldn\u2019t get a visa.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDenton, I\u2019m always thankful to you. And you like me too, right? Before you leave\u2026 can we\u2026 together?\u201d She wrapped her arms around him from behind as she spoke.\u00a0<\/p>\n
sleep\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton pulled out a disease test kit from the drawer. \u201cYolanda said before doing that, we both need to check for infectious diseases. That way, you can feel safe, and I\u2019d be responsible.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lily stiffened, then flinched and let go, her face turning pale. \u201cDenton, we don\u2019t\u2026 need that, right? I trust\u00a0<\/p>\n
you, we\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton was firm. \u201cNo. I have to be responsible.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He opened the kit, pricked his finger, and ran the test.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once he saw he was clear, he handed her the other kit. \u201cYour turn?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lily\u2019s face had gone pale. She held the test kit, hesitating for a long moment. \u201cDenton, I\u2019m not feeling well all of a sudden. Let\u2019s do it another day\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then she ran away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton\u2019s expression turned cold. If she was that scared of a simple test, it was clear that Savannah\u2019s plan was to use a woman to ruin him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That was cruel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If they wanted to play dirty, he wouldn\u2019t go easy either.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before leaving the country, Denton stopped by the Lincoln Estate.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDenton, why didn\u2019t you go with Lily? I heard you two are dating?\u201d Savannah greeted him with a smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton nodded. \u201cShe\u2019s a good person, but her situation is complicated. She can\u2019t get a visa, so I can\u2019t take her with me. I\u2019ll come back to visit her often.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah\u2019s smile wavered for a moment, then returned. \u201cSince you\u2019re dating, you should stick together. Want me to help get her a visa?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton looked at her seriously. \u201cIf the relationship is strong, distance won\u2019t break it. If we can\u2019t wait two years, then we\u2019re not meant to be.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
For some reason, Savannah felt his tone was cold today, but she didn\u2019t push. \u201cOkay, we\u2019ll do it your way.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She wouldn\u2019t press too hard yet. She planned to find a way to send Lily abroad to see Denton. After being apart for a long time, their connection would flare up. And if Denton caught HIV, she could completely\u00a0<\/p>\n
control him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then she could use it to blackmail him and take control of the Lincoln Group.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSavannah, I don\u2019t really have power in the company. The executives are all my brother\u2019s old team. How\u00a0<\/p>\n

do I get them to follow me?\u201d Denton asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Savannah was a little surprised. \u201cYou want to take over Lincoln Group now? I thought you were waiting until after graduation?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton\u2019s voice lowered. \u201cMy brother\u2019s dead. If I wait two more years, who knows what will happen? It\u2019s better to take over now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah hesitated. Let him take control now? She didn\u2019t even have leverage on him yet. What if\u2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI know I don\u2019t know much yet. I\u2019m young, inexperienced, and they won\u2019t easily listen to me. But you\u2019re Grandpa\u2019s chosen talent, and you have influence in the company. Once I secure control, I want you as CEO. That way, while I\u2019m abroad, you can help run Lincoln Group,\u201d Denton said with a smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
