Chapter 94
The three of them arrived at the chairman’s office.
Lethan was busy tending to his wounds, which were quite uncomfortable with his injured arm.
Wanda quickly stepped forward and grabbed the disinfectant out of Lethan’s hand. “Uncle Lethan, what happened to you? Let me help you bandage the wound!”
“Wanda, Zac, Shein…” Lethan greeted them with a desperate voice.
“Let’s go to the hospital first,” Shein said calmly with his hands behind his back.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the best public hospital in Riverland.
Zachary pressed Lethan for details of what had happened, and Lethan told them the story of his wife’s affair.
Wanda was furious. “This is unbelievable! After all you’ve done for her!”
Then Lethan remembered Wanda’s classmate, Carlisle.
He wondered how Carlisle knew about his wife’s affair with John. He even knew that they were planning to embezzle company funds.
Lethan called the finance department on his phone.
“Mr. Warbane…”
“Check if Quinn has approved any large transactions recently!”
“Okay, Mr. Warbane. Please give me a moment,”
After about three minutes, the voice on the other end said, “Mr. Warbane, there’s a three–billion–dollar project waiting for your approval.”
“Alright, I got it… Lethan hung up, his heart still racing.
Three billion. That was the entire fortune of the company.
If Quinn had taken that money, Islo Clothing would have gone bankrupt,
His wife’s affair could put the company out of business. He felt like he was being pushed to the edge of a
cliff. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Lethan clutched his phone tightly, his eyes blazing with anger. “Quinn… You’re ruthless!”
Shein looked at Lethan with a complicated expression. “Remember your promise.”
With that, he got up and left.
“Uncle Lethan, what promise did you make?” Wanda and Zachary had no idea of the adults‘ business.
Lethan was embarrassed. “Children shouldn’t worry about adult matters.”
Zachary’s phone rang.
It was an employee from the Legendary Tale.
The employee told him the cheater had been banned forever, but the two pieces of equipment were
irretrievable.
“Damn it! What kind of shitty game is this? I spent so much money, and this is how you treat your customers?” Zachary exploded in anger.
At the bedside, Lethan looked at Wanda and asked, “Wanda, is your classmate from Riverland?”
He speculated that Carlisle might have overheard Quinn and John’s conversation, hence his knowledge.
“He’s from Rainville, and we went to the same high school!”
“Really?” Lethan couldn’t believe it.
If Carlisle was from Rainville and was Wanda’s classmate, then he should be a freshman.
The new semester at Riverland University had only started three days ago, and during those three days, Quinn and John were almost always in his sight. So, it was unlikely that Carlisle had overheard their
conversations.
However, if that possibility was ruled out, it only made things more confusing.
“Uncle Lethan, did Carlisle come to see you yesterday because of Aunt Quinn’s affair?” Wanda asked
curiously.
“You didn’t know?”
Wanda blushed. “No, I didn’t want him to know about our relationship, so I didn’t ask.”
“Do you like him?” Lethan teased with a half smile.
“Like who?” Zachary returned after ending the call.
“What do you mean ‘like‘? You must have heard wrong!”
Zachary turned to Lethan. “Did I?”
Lethan nodded.
Zachary scratched his head. “I’m just so angry. When I find that bastard, I’ll break his legs!”
