Trading My Ex for His Uncle

If Falcon didn't make contact within a month, it would mean something had happened to them.

"Alright, I understand," Spencer replied.noveldrama

He turned and left the office, sighing once outside. He could only hope they couldn't reach Falcon because of some kind of accident, not something worse.

Once the office door closed, Damon's gaze darkened.

If he wasn't mistaken, Falcon had likely been found by the Nixons, though Damon wasn't sure whether they were alive or dead.

The Nixons, the hidden power behind Drake, were far bigger and more mysterious than he had imagined.

While he was lost in thought, his phone suddenly rang.

Upon seeing that it was Gabriel, his expression immediately turned cold.

As soon as he answered, Gabriel's furious voice came through. "Damon, are you really going to drive me to the brink?"

The legal team from Prospectus Technology had filed a lawsuit against Nyce Tech for illegally stealing trade secrets and submitted evidence of other criminal activities to the court.

If those pieces of evidence were accepted, Gabriel would face prison time. His secretary had just reported that the police were on their way to take him in for questioning.

Damon spoke indifferently. "You weren't exactly kind to Prospectus Technology, were you? Now the roles have switched. Can't take it, huh?"

"Heh, I advise you not to push things too far. There are others who want to bring down Prospectus Technology, not just Nyce Tech," Gabriel warned.

"I know. There's Tom, and even Drake behind him, right?" Damon prompted.

There was a long silence on the other end of the line.

After several seconds, Gabriel finally said, "Since you know, you shouldn't be wasting so much energy on Nyce Tech. Your true opponents have never been Nyce Tech."

"You and Tom are colluding against Prospectus Technology, which makes you Drake's right hand. If I deal with you first, taking care of Tom will be just as easy. Should

keep you around so you can stab me in the back later?" Damon retorted.

"You!" Gabriel barked. "Damon, you'll regret this!"

"The only one who will regret it is you. You'll have to face the consequences of all

the dirty things you've done!" With that, Damon hung up.

Just as Gabriel was about to call back, there was a knock at the door.

Two police officers entered behind

his secretary, their expressions serious. "Mr. Hackett, you are suspected of illegally stealing Prospectus Technology's core data and other criminal activities. Please come with us."

Gabriel gripped the phone tightly. After a long pause, he stood up and adjusted his clothes. "Alright, I'll go with you."

He told his secretary, "Tell the lawyer to come to the police station later."

For now, it was just a matter of cooperating with the investigation. He could still post bail.

His secretary nodded. "Got it, Mr. Hackett."

...

The news of Gabriel being taken by the police spread quickly, and the Wilkies soon received word.

Pedro called everyone to the family home, including Jane, who had not yet gone abroad.

Upon seeing her, Theo sneered.

"Jane, you really have good taste.

You married such an impressive man-he almost brought down both the Wilkie Group and Prospectus Technology. Truly remarkable!"

Jane coldly stared at him. "Better than you, who's been nothing but a spoiled heir. You still can't find a family willing to marry their daughter to you. Worry about yourself first."
