Chapter 440 – The Regretful Billionaire: An Unpredicted Reunion

Posted on March 4, 2025 by thisisterrisun

Filed to story: The Regretful Billionaire: An Unpredicted Reunion

Now, he realized that the head of the Quinceys should be ruthless and relentless.

Allowing others a way out would just spell disaster for the person in power later on.

It was a pity he didn’t think of it earlier.

“Tomorrow, I will personally go to Quincey Group to keep an eye on things.I want to see who dares to act recklessly under my nose!”

If he taught Yakov everything, he should be able to learn it all and stand on his own.

Eustace, who had already left Quincey Manor, was unaware of all this.

But even if he knew, he wouldn’t care.

The Quinceys were walking on a tightrope.

If they weren’t careful, they would fall off unceremoniously.

He wasn’t in a hurry.

After all, there were plenty of families who wanted to bring down the Quinceys.

Even if he did nothing, others would still take action.

Being lost in thought, Eustace wandered automatically to the entrance of the residential area where he was staying.

It was a familiar place, but there were no longer any familiar people there.

The reason why he came to live there was that Danika lived there too.

But now that she was caring for Evan in the hospital, she probably wouldn’t be back tonight.

To be more accurate, she might not come back again in the future.

He didn’t want things to develop this way, but it was the most likely thing to happen judging from the current circumstances.

Before he drove into the residential building, he saw someone waving at him.

He lowered his car window and found that it was Blake.

Eustace found it surprising that she would appear before him again.

Seeing that he’d come to a halt in his car, Blake walked over and said, “Eustace, get down.We need to talk.”

“I don’t think there’s anything to talk about between us.If my memory serves me right, the Watkins family planned to stab me in the back.You could have been a part of that plan.”

When Xavier was killed, two people were caught, and Zeke asked him to interrogate them.

However, those two suddenly claimed that he was the mastermind.

After an investigation, it was found that the Watkins family had bribed those two men.

Hence, Eustace deduced that it was likely related to Blake.

“Since we broke up, I have almost no say in the Watkins family.I don’t know anything about what you’ve just mentioned.”

Blake denied it, knowing that Eustace wouldn’t be able to find any other evidence besides being aware that it was the Watkins’ doing.

Eustace shrugged and didn’t care.

“I could care less whether you intervened or not.After all, you still helped them in the end.”

Whether Zeke believed it or not, it was eventually found that the Watkins family was responsible, and they bore the blame.

Blake laughed dryly in an awkward manner.

“Can I come up and sit with you for a while? I haven’t been to your place yet.”

I Need Your Help

Eustace was amused by her words and stared at her with a hint of derision.

“Do you think we’re that close?”

“Eustace, I know you’re upset because of Danika, but you don’t have to take it out on me.”

Blake was displeased.

No matter what, she was still a daughter of an affluent family.

Although she didn’t have much presence within the family, no one else dared to talk to her so rudely.

Unfortunately for her, Eustace never cared about her status or upbringing.He looked at her impassively, and Blake felt a shiver run down her spine.

“I know about Danika’s situation, but I swear it has nothing to do with the Watkins.They wouldn’t want to mess with the Zellwegers.”

Even until now, the Quinceys were still keeping an eye on the Watkins.

If the Watkins dared to offend the Zellwegers at this time, they would be seeking death.

“What do you want from me?”

Eustace was not in the mood to chat with her and just wanted to send her away.

“I just came to see you.You must be feeling bad about Danika taking care of Evan for the rest of her life.We were together for some time, and even though we’ve separated now, we’re still friends.As a friend, I should care about you,” she justified.

However, Eustace’s expression became more displeased because of her words.He stared at her glumly with an unamused gaze.

“You seem to be quite informed of the events in the city.”

“The Watkins has some influence in Bardoff City, after all.”

Blake didn’t deny the fact that she was keeping an eye on Danika because there was nothing to deny concerning that.

Not to mention Danika, who among the Ten Elites in Bardoff City didn’t keep an eye on each other? Even Eustace was probably keeping an eye on everyone as well.

Eustace sneered and started his car.

“I don’t need your concern.You’d better take care of yourself.If I’m not mistaken, the Watkins should be preparing to hand over the family business to your younger brother.Are you okay with that?”

Blake’s expression froze as she bit her lip.

“I’m not okay with it.That’s why I want your help.”

“Why do you think I would help you?” Eustace said disdainfully, finding Blake quite amusing.

He wondered where she got her confidence from.

“Don’t you want to know who made a move against Danika?” Blake smiled.

She observed the sudden change in Eustace’s expression and felt good about it.She sniggered internally that no matter how powerful Eustace was, he still had a weakness.

Eustace took some time to regulate his emotions and asked, “What do you want me to do?”

“It’s simple.I want you to help me take over the Watkins family.”

She didn’t hold any expectations of becoming Eustace’s girlfriend anymore.Her ultimate goal when she got together with Eustace was to take control of her family business.Since that was the case, she should just focus on that.

Unfortunately, when Eustace heard her words, he couldn’t help but laugh.

“You’re overestimating me.I have nothing now and don’t have a chance to intervene in the Quinceys’ affairs.How can I have the ability to help you take over the Watkins?”

“I know what you’re capable of.”

She’d been in contact with Eustace for some time, so she knew how powerful he was.

Therefore, she wasn’t worried about whether Eustace would be able to deliver.

Eustace had a faint smile on his lips but didn’t say anything.

Seeing that, Blake became a little anxious.

“You should think it over.The person I can contact is the only one capable of finding the mas:ermind.Are you sure you don’t want this lead?”

“What’s the point of finding the mastermind? Can it change what has already happened?”

Even if they found the one behind all this, Evan wouldn’t get better, and Danika still wouldn’t give up taking care of him for the rest of his life.

Break In

Blake was speechless hearing Eustace’s words.She didn’t expect Danika would decide to take care of Evan for the rest of his life.

If that was the case, she couldn’t do anything about it.

“I can’t possibly ask Danika to give up on that idea, can 1?” Blake started racking her brain for a solution.

While she was nagging about the impossibility of it all internally, Eustace suddenly spoke up.

“If you want me to help you take over the Watkins family, it’s not entirely impossible.”
