Marrying
Chapter 773
Jayden knew he was not privy to the intricacies of the wealthy families conflicts, but he was aware that Owen was not someone to be underestimated. If Owen discovered that he had been decrived, it could tum problematic. With this thought, Jayden fixed a steely gaze, realizing that if a confrontation or a melee were to occur, he would need to eliminate them to secure his position
What else could he do! Although he was a powerful figure as a gang leader, he was not the ultimate boss and had higherâups watching his every move. The fate of Owen was directly tied to his survival. Given the deadly rivalry between Matthew and Owen, if he managed to deceive Owen, he had to ensure he was prepared for any fallout.
Matthew had a different plan in mind. He aimed to capture Owen and use him as bait to lure out Ethan. Matthew was convinced he had seen Ethan before, and Ethan had sent a distress signal indicating he had something crucial to share. The sudden disappearance and subsequent pursuit of Ethan suggested someone was actively trying to prevent their meeting. All these clues pointed to one conclusion: someone was trying to keep the truth from him. Matthew believed that Owen was the prime suspect,
Ethanâs sudden disappearance had left him in hiding, and Matthew suspected that Owen was behind it. Now that Matthew had reached this place. Ethan was cornered and dared not make a move. If Mathew could capture Owen, he believed that Ethan would realize only he could provide the help he needed. This, Matthew hoped, would prompt Ethan to reveal himself.
As the truth drew nearer, Mathew knew it was crucial to act swiftly. He thought, Mr. Anderson, well be meeting very soon!â
Matthew sneered, instructing his team to prepare for when O
Owen arrived. The key was to ensure that Orenâs guards were replaced with his people 10 guarantee everything went smoothly. With Davinâs men assisting, it didnât take long for Owenâs group to be located Once everything was set, it was time for Matthew to meet Owen
As time ticked by, Owen tried to find a moment to slip away, but Charles kept a tight watch on him. Charles didnât leave Owenâs side, even assigning his subordinates to keep a close eye on him. Owen had no opportunity to escape, as he was under constant surveillance, even during meals, bathroom breaks, and showers. Frustration and anger built up within him.
Owen had initially hoped to avoid Valerie, but he found Charles to be even more tenacious, sticking to him like glue. Lying in bed, he furrowed his and thought, âManhew is so cunning and has always outmaneuvered me in our confrontations. How did Jayden manage to capture him sa easily! And why didnât they ask for any money for capturing Matthew
Logically, Matthew is incredibly wealthy. Shouldnât Valerie have received some sort of ransom demand? It doesnât make sense that Matthew could be captured so easily
Owen started to suspect something was off. If he had been in that situation, he would have first contacted himself and then reached out domestically for a ransom. Given Matthewâs immense wealth, even criminal organizations abroad would have been well aware of his significance. Owen knew that his ultimate goal was to take over Noria Group, and Jayden was aware of that too. However, the Grant familyâs assets were substantial. Considering the lavish gifts given by Sophia, for Valerieâs baby, it was clear that Sophia had a considerable amount of valuable assets. Owen wondered if Jayden was aware of this. For them, the more money they could extract, the better. It would make sense to drain every bit of wealth from the Grant family,
Owen wanted both the assets of the Noria Group and the Grant family. He doubted that Jayden would overlook such an opportunity, making him suspicious of the situation. Given the unpredictable nature of conflicts and the fact that he was in Wakanda, Owen had no one else to trust.
The best course of action was to stay cautious and observe. Years of navigating experiences had taught Owen never to trust others easily. He valued his life too much to rush into anything. Therefore, he decided not to leave just yet and chose to stay put and watch for any signs of betrayal or deception.
Owen pretended to be unwell, claiming he needed to rest in the hotel for a couple of days. Secing Owenâs flushed appearance, Charles chose not to press the matter further.
He thought. Given that Mr. Andersonâs forces were actively searching for Mr. Grant, it wouldnât be wise to push him too hard. Charles agreed to let him stay, knowing that no matter what, Owen wouldnât be able to escape this situation. Charles glanced outside, noting that this hotel was currently the only one they had been able to fund
Unbeknownst to Charles, Owen had already begun plotting. Once inside his hotel room, Owen reached out to Jaydenâs subordinates. Despite his distrust of Jayden, Owen knew that his men could be swayed with money. He promised one of them 600 thousand dollars if they successfully assisted him. This amount would be more than enough for the man to live comfortably in Wakanda.
Owen, after making contact with his accomplices, noticed Charles stationed nearby and couldnât help but smirk. He thought, âCharles Husson, just wait. When I come back, youâll get whatâs coming to you!
Charles remained unaware of Owenâs plans but was highly alert. Valerie had warned him that Owen was cunning and deceitful, and wouldnât simply comply without causing trouble. Although Valerie had used the Anderson familyâs reputation to threaten Owen, but Owen was known for his ruthlessness in achieving his goals. Charles knew he had to be fully prepared and vigilant.
In the deep of night, Owenâs eyes snapped open at the slightest buzz of his phone. He immediately sprang up, a cold smirk spreading a

face as he read the message. Meanwhile, a shadowy figure quicily slipped into the hotel room, swiftly overpowered the guard at the door, and launched a rapid counterattack.
âWhoâs there?â Charles jolted awake, immediately alert to a muffled sound coming from outside. His heart raced as he swiftly grabbed his gun. ready for any immediate threat.
Owenâs men burst through the door, and upon seeing the bed, they immediately lunged forward with knives. After Charles managed to take down two of them, the rest of Owenâs team finally reacted. Despite his skills. Charles was overwhelmed by their numbers and was soon pinned to the ground.
The lights flickered on with a snap, revealing the intruders. Charles couldnât help but sneer. âMr. Anderson, you donât know when to give up! Even if youâve caught me, youâre not going to escapeâ
The sharp slap echoed through the room. âYou little brat, who do you think you are?â Owenâs voice was icy. âJust because youâre with Matthew doesnât make you untouchable. Do you think youâre someone important? In my territory, how dare you act so arrogant?â With a final, forceful kick, he emphasized his point.
Charles nearly choked, coughing up a rusty taste in his throat. âMr. Anderson, do you even realize what youâre doing? Arenât you afraid of what might happen in Kranson City?â
Owen slapped him again. âDare to threaten me, you little brat? Do you even know who youâre messing with? This is what happens when you disrespect me!â
