Chapter 414 Chapter 414 Balance

That was the last thing that they wanted to di and so they knew that they would have to simply keep their heads down and agree with whatever it was that she threw in their direction.

"Don't look so down. You should have faith in me and you should know that I wouldn't do anything without reason. I am your princess after all and you know that I would always do what was best for the people. There will be benefits for you that I assure."

She watched as they seemed to loosen up at her words as she couldn't help but smirk at them in response, they were just as gullible as the others and she knew that they would be more than likely willing to fall for her words.

"You should. Now that this business battle us only something that is temporary and once all of it is over I will ensure that you are greatly compensated. You should do well to remember that as long as you stay on my side you will remain on the winning team and I do well to protect those that are on my side.

"I didn't forget the fact that you have made sacrifices for me and you should be rest assured that they have not gone unnoticed." She said to them.

"Now tell me do you approve to this agreement." She said to them as she raised up her had into the air and offered it to them for them to shake.

She watched as they looked between each to her for a moment and she didn't miss the sight look of hesitation that was on their features. However she knew that she didn't have anything to worry about.

She knew that they would agree to team up with her. She watched as they only seemed to deliberate on it for a moment before each one of them reached out and shook her hand eagerly.

"I knew that you boys would come around" She said with a smirk. She knew one thing was for sure and that was at the end?of the day they shared a common enemy and that was the Smith.

No matter how much they feared Candice and they were hesitant about giving her full control over their lands and their companies the one thing that they held?to higher accord was a greater hatred for the Smiths.

They would cast aside their hesitance about Candice and what her true intentions were and they would focus on getting the Smiths.

They intended to take them down no matter what happened and they didn't care for what would happen along the way.

One thing that was certain was the fact that the Smiths and Zach weren't going to get away with this and Candice was going to make sure that they were completely destroyed.

Zach thought that he was smart now and that he had the upper hand but he was oh so wrong and he was soon going to realize that he wasn't going to be able to take her down so easily.

Because in the end she was the one who had the power and the control and she would always win. He may have had the upper hand now. But she was always going to be one step ahead of him and with her having all of his competition under her thumb he would have nowhere to run.

And her numbers would outrun his. There was only so much that his wit could do for him and eventually he would have to reach the end of the like and that was where she would be waiting for him in order to take him down.

By the time that he came to realize that he had lost, he would have no choice but to submit to her completely.

…

The news of Candice joining forces with the Brown and Davis family wasn't something that was to remain hidden for a long time. Soon enough multiple people including Marico came to know of the fact that they had formed an alliance with one another.

He knew that there was something?off about the alliance and nothing good could have come of it.

There was a reason for them deciding to join forces and it most likely had something to do with the Smiths and Zach.

Marico knew that Zach already had a lot of his plate. He knew that there was a part of him thar knew he should have informed Zach so that he could know the right step to take.

However he was hesitant about it as he decided that maybe it was best for him to keep the news to himself.

He decided that it was best for him to stop the news before it reached Zach so that Zach would instead focus on working on the industry and he wouldn't be deterred by anything else.

He was certain that this was something that would cause him to falter.

Marico knew that he and Zach were partners in strategy however he was also aware of the fact that Zach was head strong. He knew that it didn't matter the level of advice that he tried to give him or how many times he tried to persuade him there would be no changing Zach's mind.

He already had his set plan in place and he wasn't going to change his mind. Marico's opinion on certain things didn't matter to Zach.

Like when Marico had told Zach to consider reconciling with?Candice do that they wouldn't have to go through the business battle. It would mean that they would solve everything calmly without any form of altercation.

However Zach hadn't listened to him and had been adamant against a ceasefire. He had made it clear the fact that he wasn't backing down and that he was going to stand strong against her.

He was well aware of Zach's habit and also he knew that even if he were to tell Zach now about the partnership it wouldn't be enough for him to see reason and consider backing down.

He doubted that there was anything that would cause Zach to backdown. Also although he was in an alliance with the Smith family and they were both working together on a common goal.

He didn't want the Smiths to also become more powerful than the Windsor's later on. He wanted the Windsor's to stay on top and he knew that if Zach continued on his current path that wouldn't be possible.

He had to think about himself and his family for once. it wasn't enough to uplift them but he also had to work towards uplifting himself.

He had a job to do as the head and the protector of his family and although he knew that he was looking towards helping?out the Smiths he knew that for him the Windsor's would always co me first.

He knew that with Zach's enormous influence the Smiths would be able to take on more power and land and he had to do something in order to put a stop it quickly before it was too late.

Her had thought about being civil about it before and playing the part of the gentleman but he couldn't do it anymore.

He knew that. A time would come when Zach would want to cut him off as well but he had to act fast and do it first before he could get to him.

It wasn't that he wanted the complete destruction of the Windsor's the same way that princess Candice did. He wanted then to remain powerful but he also wanted the Windsor name to be only a little bit less powerful.

That way they could both remain as equals and the two of them could reigning together as equals.

He didn't want to have a situation where they would be able to cut him off if they were ever to see it fit.

He knew that once Clara and Zach got married the Windsor name would remain on top?and that he wouldn't have anything to worry about. But until them he would have to keep his eyes put to make sure that nothing went wrong.

He knew that the marriage would seal their alliance but until the deal was sealed there were a number of ways that things could go and he had to make sure that he wasn't affected in the end by any of it.

He knew that Clara was the key to everything for him and he would make sure that things stayed that way.

Marico was stood in his office as he pondered over what was going on. He knew that what he was doing was right and that it was for the best but for him he couldn't help but feel as though there was something offsetting about it.

He heard a knock on his door and cleared his throat as he gestured for the person to come in.

He widened his eyes when he saw that it was his daughter violet.

"Violet? what is it?" he asked her curiously. She let out a sigh as she shrugged her shoulders before she made her way into the room.

She took a seat in front of him as she took a good look at him.

"I have just been worried about you. I feel as though you have a lot on your mind that is bothering you." She said to him honestly.

She watched as he gulped and she could tell he was hiding something...
