Chapter 1863: The Box Chapter 1863: The Box Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Beau turned to look at Aida, his tone puzzled as he asked, “What do you mean?” “Grandfather, how about this?

You both go to Haverhead Hill, and I’ll stay behind,” she suggested.

She saw this as the perfect opportunity to take control of the entire Collier family business.

If both Albert and Beau were away at Haverhead Hill, she would have ample time and opportunity to firmly grasp control of all of Collier family’s business ventures.

At that point, Aida would truly have the final say in the Collier family, even if Cielo managed to recover, he wouldn’t have the qualifications to compete with her for the position of Collier family head.

“Aida, you actually want to stay behind?” Beau was unaware of her intentions and thought she wanted to stay behind to protect the family’s assets.

“All those people in the company are scheming individuals.

If we truly hand over the company to them, it won’t be long before our Collier family is ruined.

So, I’m willing to stay behind.

After all, as long as I’m here, they shouldn’t dare to overstep their bounds too much,” she earnestly stated.

“But aren’t you afraid that Jorge will come looking for you?” “I’m definitely afraid,” Aida nodded, then continued, “but I’m just an ordinary person, and this has nothing to do with me.

No matter what, he is a martial arts grandmaster.

I believe he won’t harm me.” Aida knew a lot about Connor, so even if Jorge did come looking for her, she believed she could explain things to him.

She felt that staying behind wouldn’t pose too great a danger.

“Aida, if you’re willing to stay behind, I must thank you sincerely,” Beau said, somewhat moved.

“Grandfather, please don’t say that.

After all, I’m also part of the Collier family.

Now that the Collier family is in trouble, I naturally need to contribute,” she replied with a smile.

“All right, then.

If you have no objections, I’ll have your father hold a board meeting when he returns.

At that time, I will appoint you as the new chairman of Collier Group, and I will also announce that you will inherit the position of Collier family head in the future.” “Grandfather, isn’t it a bit too early to mention the family head position?” Aida was excited, but she tried to maintain a composed demeanor.

“Your brother is in his current state, so he won’t be able to inherit the position in the future.

It’s most appropriate for you to take on the role.

Also, announcing your future position as the head of the Collier family will help stabilize the situation.” “Very well…” She nodded gently.

“I hope that when I return, the Collier family will still be the same as it is now,” Beau sighed softly, as if intentionally saying it for Aida’s ears.

“Grandfather, rest assured, I will do my best to safeguard the family’s assets.” “You have the capability.” He nodded gently, then continued, “By the way, if you encounter any trouble in business in the future, contact the Xylon family.

Regardless of the circumstances, Zakir Xylon still has feelings for you.

Don’t waste such a good opportunity.

If you can really be with him in the future, it will also be a good thing for our Collier family.” “I understand…” She nodded in resignation.

“All right, if you have nothing else, you can leave now.” He waved his hand towards her.

After parting ways with him, Aida returned to her room alone and took out her phone to call Connor.

During this time, she never stopped trying to contact Connor because she couldn’t believe he would die so easily.

She even suspected that the person who killed Draco might be Connor himself.

However, she knew that Draco’s strength was terrifying, so such a scenario was unlikely.

The phone rang for a long time, but he still did not answer.

“Could you really be dead?” She couldn’t help but sigh softly and put down her phone.

For some reason, she always felt that something was amiss about his death.

Meanwhile, in another part of Comtar, in a certain residential area, Connor slowly opened his eyes after a prolonged period of unconsciousness.

Upon waking up, he instinctively observed his surroundings.

He realized that he was lying in a bedroom.

The bedroom had a warm and cozy atmosphere, with everything, from the bedsheet to the curtains, in shades of pink.

It appeared to be a girl’s room.

“Soul Returning Fruit!” Connor quickly reached out to touch his clothes but discovered that the jade box containing the fruit was missing.

His heart raced, and he immediately got up and rushed out of the room.

“Connor, you’re awake!” Leah, who was in the kitchen preparing food, saw Connor and exclaimed excitedly.

“The Soul Returning Fruit!

Where is it?” Connor asked urgently.

“What is the Soul Returning Fruit?” Leah blinked her eyes, her expression puzzled.

“I’m asking you, where’s the Soul Returning Fruit?” Connor’s emotions were running high; he couldn’t calm down.

She hesitated for a moment, then said, “Connor, you’ve just woken up.

Can you please not be so agitated?

Did you lose something?

I can help you look for it…” “The Soul Returning Fruit!

It’s the jade box I had,” he clarified.

“Ah, you mean that box?” she asked.

“Yes, that box.” “Don’t worry, I’ve put that box away for you.

It’s not lost.” She reassured him, then went to the bedroom where Connor had been earlier, retrieved the jade box, and handed it to him.

Connor took the jade box, checked it to confirm that the Soul Returning Fruit was inside, and finally relaxed.

“Thank goodness it didn’t get lost.

Otherwise, everything I did would have been in vain…” He sat down on the sofa, and his expression became much more at ease.
