Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Hugo nodded. Chris was right. There had to be more than meets the eye!

If they didn’t resolve it properly, the Douglases would suffer heavy losses!

“The situation is urgent. Call everyone over immediately for a meeting to discuss countermeasures!” Hugo shouted.

Soon, all the direct descendants of the Douglas family and the top executives of the companies were all gathered in the Douglas family mansion.

Almost all of the companies under the Douglases’ name had been seized. These people had naturally heard of it since it had blown up to such a huge extent. Hugo Douglas even called for a meeting late at night. It was definitely because of that matter.

Hugo sat in the middle of the couch and looked around at the dozens of people standing in the living room. His eyes narrowed. “All of you, tell me the truth. Did you do anything to offend a big shot recently?”

As soon as Hugo spoke, he asked about this matter, and everyone started guessing that the Douglases must have offended a formidable figure of status, which led to the crisis. However, most of their businesses were illegal, so who knew if they had unintentionally offended someone?

For example, two years ago, a Douglas saw a beautiful girl dressed in simple and normal clothes, so he resorted to some means to get her to one of their companies, only to find out later that she came from an extraordinary family. In the end, the Douglases suffered enormous losses, had to apologize, and ended up owing many people favors in order to get the woman’s family to let them off.

Moreover, that was only because the woman didn’t get hurt too badly. Otherwise, the Douglases wouldn’t have been able to settle it so easily.

Of course, they didn’t get involved in such things often, and since the last incident, Hugo had also taught them a hard lesson.

However, slip-ups would happen every now and then. Who knew when they might have offended someone?

All of them shook their heads in unison.

“I don’t know. I’ve been behaving lately and haven’t done anything to offend anyone!”

“I haven’t either!”

“Me too. I didn’t offend anyone.”

...

Hugo narrowed his eyes as he looked at them threateningly. “I want to hear the truth! If I find out someone is lying to me, you’ll be kicked out of the family immediately!”

Hearing this, everyone panicked. But after racking their brains for a long time, they still couldn’t think of an instance where they had offended someone.

At this moment, Hugo suddenly noticed that someone was missing—Gordon Douglas.

“Where’s Gordon? Wasn’t he informed of the meeting?” Hugo questioned while looking at Chris with displeasure.

Chris hurriedly said, “I was about to report to you. But since everyone is gathered here for the meeting, I can’t say it out loud...”

Hugo’s face turned gloomy. “Speak. We’re all family, so there’s nothing you have to hide.”

Chris glanced around at the crowd listening attentively and sighed. “Gordon is in the hospital now. He has a broken toe and has suffered some injuries. Brad is also severely injured and is being resuscitated in the hospital...”

“What?” Hugo was astonished. His son and grandson had landed in the hospital, and Brad had even reached the point where he had to be resuscitated...

“Who did it?” Hugo asked with an angry expression.

Chris shook his head. “I don’t know. Gordon was really angry and didn’t say anything.”

At this moment, a Douglas suddenly said, “Gordon and Brad suddenly got injured tonight, and all our businesses were seized. Could there be any connection between the two?”

These words made everyone frown and sink into deep thought.

Indeed, if Gordon Douglas and Brad Douglas offended some big shot outside, got severely injured, and even caused all of the Douglases’ businesses to be seized, that would make sense!

Everyone turned to look at Hugo, who was exasperated. “Drag that sinful son back here at once!”

...

In Pearl Lakeside Villa, Orange County.

Flynn Davis called Lucas. “Mr. Gray, according to your instructions, all of the Douglases’ companies and joints have been seized. All the evidence has been collected, and there is no way they can deny it. This time, the Douglas family definitely won’t survive.”

Lucas expressed approval and said, “Good. I want them to perish for good.”

Davis hurriedly said, “Don’t worry about this. I’ve had people prepare a lot of evidence and photos, as well as videos of the victims’ complaints, all of which have been uploaded on the internet. It caused a massive uproar online and also attracted the attention of many departments. This time, even if the Douglases’ have wide connections in Orange County, it will definitely not help.”

Hearing this, Lucas was pleased.

Many of the nasty things that the Douglases did were challenging the law and going against ethics and morals. Once their dirty deeds were exposed, it would definitely result in outrage and public discussion. Even if the Douglases tried to suppress it, it would be to no avail.

“Has the matter over at the Brilliance Corporation been investigated?” Lucas suddenly asked.

“Yes, I was just about to report it to you. The person who sent Miss Carter to discuss the cooperation with Heaven Media was Jane Harper, Miss Carter’s former assistant and the current deputy head of the business department. As far as I know, she tried to make things difficult for Miss Carter several times today. Should we get rid of her?”

With an ice-cold gaze, Lucas said, “No, don’t fire her yet. I still need her for something.” Sacking her right away would be giving her an easy way out.

“Yes, Mr. Gray!”

Lucas put away the phone and glanced at the large bed at the side.

Cheyenne was lying on the bed, sound asleep.

She would frown at times and seemed to be unable to sleep peacefully.

Gordon Douglas had given her a strong sleeping pill. As long as she slept well, she should be awake by tomorrow morning.

Lucas walked to the side of the bed, bent over, and gently stroked Cheyenne’s forehead.

“I won’t let those who tried to harm you, including the Douglas family and Jane Harper, off. Sleep in peace,” Lucas whispered gently into Cheyenne’s ear.

As if she heard Lucas’s voice, the frowning Cheyenne in her sleep gradually stopped frowning and relaxed.

In the Douglas family mansion...

Gordon still had gauze wrapped around his toes and was helped into the hall.

Everyone waiting in the hall turned to look at him.

Gordon immediately saw Hugo in the middle. He quickly strode forward with a look of grief in his eyes, as though he had suffered great mistreatment.

“Dad, you have to help me! That rascal almost killed Brad, and he kept threatening me. The fighter I hired even turned against me and defected to him. If I weren’t lucky enough, I wouldn’t even be able to see you now!” Gordon exclaimed while pointing to the bruises on his neck.

Smack!

However, Gordon didn’t hear the words of comfort he was expecting and instead received a loud slap on his face by Hugo.
