Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 2694

Winny was rendered speechless right away, and she choked on her sobs.

She knew that in the current situation, it was impossible for them to do anything to Fade.

She felt angry and helpless. She could only lower her head and grit her teeth. She did not even dare to look at him.

Fade sneered and ignored the spoiled rich girl. He went to Teago and asked, "Who's Macaulay?"

"How did you know? Were you spying on me?" Teago was taken by surprise.

Fade did not explain. He merely said frostily, "Tell me, and I might have mercy on you."

Teago narrowed his eyes. "I'm warning you, you'd better drop your accusations against me and my daughter. Release my firm and return my license." "You're optimistic! That's impossible." Fade snickered. "At most, I'll lighten your sentences." "No way. I won't agree to such terms," retorted Teago. "You don't agree?" Another snicker was heard from Fade. He gave Teago a stone-cold look and shook his head. "It looks like you still don't understand the situation!"

"You are not qualified to negotiate with me."

"You can choose not to tell me who Macaulay is, but you should think over the consequences carefully on your own."

After that, Fade stood up and was about to leave.

Teago looked at his back and hesitated.

Finally, he shouted, "I'll tell you."

Fade stopped and turned to face Teago. "Go ahead!"

Teago sighed and then slowly confessed. "Macaulay contacted me a week ago. He claimed to be a spokesperson of a foreign martial arts negotiation organization. He said that he was responsible for handling various such organizations."

"He got in touch with me and told me to do my best to exaggerate the various legal issues of the Capital City negotiation team, and at the same time mobilize college students to oppose you and the team."

"As far as I know, the news on Lichee Daily was also promoted by Macaulay, who had contacted the manager, Faunus Huang."

"I see. Lichee Daily is in this together with you all." Fade's lips curled in a sardonic sneer.

Then, he continued the interrogation.

However, as Teago and Macaulay only contacted each other by phone, Teago did not know much about the other party.

After the questioning, Fade left the police station and immediately called Sasha. He requested her to investigate Macaulay and simultaneously take action against Lichee Daily.

As for Teago and Winny, Fade washed his hands clean of them. He did not pressure them any further.

They had received fair punishment for their actions.

The incident of Winny beating Hannah, as well as her bullying streak and her setting up a club to help her father to evade taxes, had all been exposed.

Considering all these, she was sentenced to five years of imprisonment.

Teago himself had committed many sins too.

All kinds of perjury, falsification of evidence, fraud, and slander, were revealed. Tax evasion had become the least of his problems.

In the end, with the mountain of crimes he had committed, he was sentenced to twenty years of imprisonment. His life was done for.

On the day of Winny and Teagos sentencing, Macaulay, who had gotten wind of Teago's situation in advance, fled the country.

As for Lichee Daily, it was directly shut down due to various problems.

However, the manager, Faunus, continued his doings. He headed a group of people and continued to badmouth Fade and the negotiation team on the Inte.

It was even more extreme than what had been published in the newspaper.

"Using power to suppress others, this is complete tyranny!"

"Negotiation team and peace delegates? Ridiculous."

"Fade, you can't shut the public's mouth."

There is nothing wrong with foreign martial artists, but the Capital City martial artists use their power to bully others."

"Why would ordinary treasure hunting and questioning turn into a battle? That's just what Capital City martial artists do."

Although some citizens of Jade City did not believe in it, there were some who were still influenced and consequently had a bad impression of Fade and the negotiation team.

Some of them were brainwashed into believing that the foreign martial artists were innocent. They posted their opinions all over the Inte.

Fade came to know of all that.

He narrowed his eyes and said flatly, "When their owners abandon or hurt them, these dogs wagging their tails will finally understand how ridiculous their actions are."

"Mr. Chen, what should we do?" Sasha asked.

He shook his head and said, "Nothing. The result will be clear to them soon."

At that time, the heads of the martial artist organizations who went to Jade City were gathered together in a conference room.

"Macaulay was discovered and has now escaped," said the president of the Knight Association of Earland.

"We were discovered so quickly. Has our operation failed?" The head of the Yooji Dojo of Jopeno frowned.

The president of the AXE organization of Austiland said, "It's not a failure. We've done most of what we set out to achieve. Looking at the recent public opinion of Jade City, our efforts were not in vain."

"No matter how the public opinion is

influenced, it's only a secondary

source of support. The most important thing is the strength of the martialartists. That is the only solid source of power" replied the president of the Knight Association.

With that, the expressions of the heads of the other organizations inadvertently changed. Their voices dropped to a whisper.

"Has that guy arrived in Jade City?"

"Yes, he's already here. The results of this negotiation will depend on that person to a large extent."

"It'll turn out well, probably. That person's identity and influence are extraordinary."© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"We'll see!"

The day of the negotiation drew closer and closer. On Fade's side, all kinds of relevant information had been ready and they waited for the negotiation to start.

Just then, he received a phone call.

"Lucas, you're awfully free," said Fade in a languid tone.

It was Lucas Xie, also known as Master Xie, who had called him. He had been acquainted with Fade in Bay City, and stuck with him all the way. Lucas was just a small-time local martial artist, but having benefited greatly from Fade's guidance, his power had increased rapidly.

Two years ago, with Fade's help, he won the championship in Jade City's Martial Arts Convention in Jade City. There, he gained the title "Martial Soul of Jade City" on Fade's behalf. Then he set up a base in Titan Studio on Sunset Mountain in the city. The martial arts arena in Jade City was all under his command.

Essentially, Lucas was akin to the governor of Jade City's martial artists.

Initially, after Fade arrived in Jade City, he had been meaning to visit Lucas and talk to him.

However, many things had happened unexpectedly, so frequently that Fade had no spare time at all. Thus, his visit had been delayed until then. Lucas had made the first move and called Fade.

"Mr. Chen, I have wanted to call you for a while, but I didn't do it because I knew that you came with the negotiation team and you're busy," Lucas said with a respectful smile.

"Then why are you calling me now?" Fade asked.

A little self-conscious, Lucas said, "Mr. Chen, something shook up the martial arts world of Jade City recently. I wanted you to come over to have a

look."

"Something happened? What was it?" Fade asked, but then he said, "Forget it. I'll go to your place now and talk to you face-to-face."

"Thank you, Mr. Chen. I'll make preparations right away to welcome you," said Lucas.

"Alright, don't trouble yourself. The most important thing is to solve the problem." Fade hung up and rushed to Titan Studio.
