Chapter 1017

    “Father.”


    “You heard about your brothers, right?” Oliver asked.


    “I’ve heard,” Ss replied with aplicated expression. “This won’t be something easy to handle. The


    Inspection Department operates under the chairman’s jurisdiction. With our position among the


    shareholders, we don’t have the qualification to appeal to the


    chairman.”


    “No wonder the Inspection Department acts so boldly,” Oliver said as he massaged his temples. To


    save Travis and Queenie, they had to persuade the Inspection Department and the Legal Department


    to


    drop the charges.


    The Graham family held some stake in Universal Group. He had intended to leverage their status as a

    shareholder to talk to the director of the Inspection Department, but now it looked like the approach


    was off the table.


    “Minnie will return to the country tomorrow. I’ll have her talk to M


    Calcraft,” Ss suggested.


    Oliver sighed softly. “We can only do that now.”


    Meanwhile, Nash had just returned to Royal Bay with Hera when he received a call from Angelica. This


    made him wonder if information had turned up about Cassie. Nash quickly fished out his phone and


    answered the call.


    “Mr. Calcraft, Miss Queenie has something to say to you,” Angelica


    said before handing the phone to Queenie.


    Queenie’s voice sounded from the other end of the line. “Nash, I can let go of the matter with Justin. As


    long as you withdraw thewsuit, I


    can get the Charlie family to spare you!”


    Nash was slightly startled. “You’re the one directing the Charlie


    family?”


    Queenie replied casually, “I don’t know what you’re saying, but you should get what I’m trying to say.


    My eldest sister is the girlfriend of the heir apparent of the Charlie family. All my sister needs to do is


    give the word and the family will stop troubling you.”


    “Is there anything else?” Nash smiled faintly.


    “If you persist in your stubbornness, then just wait for the fury of the


    Charlie family to befall you!” Queenie said and hung up the phone.


    coldly.


    Nash put away his phone nonchntly as Hera asked in a quiet voice,


    “Did someone really instruct Leon to approach me?”


    Nash sat on the couch and pulled Hera onto hisp. Smiling faint


    he replied, “They want to use the Charlie family to deal with me.”


    Hera became nervous at that. “You killed Leon. Won’t they do as the please now?”


    Nash sneakily stuck his hand into Hera’s clothes. “It’s just a small matter. I can handle the Charlie


    family with just one phone call.”


    Hera grabbed Nash’s restless hand, a frown crossing her features.” The Charlie family is one of the


    three major financial conglomerate families in Moliga. They’re powerful. How are you going to handle


    them?”


    Nash withdrew his hand and pressed it to his nose, taking a sniff. This made Hera blush. “Do you have


    to be so lewd?”


    Nash took out his phone and dialed Fabian’s number. He believed Fabian could help him deal with the


    matter. However, when Fabian. heard that Nash had killed someone from the Charlie family, he


    immediately fell silent.


    After a long pause, Fabian said slowly, “You may have gotten yourself into big trouble this time. The


    Charlie family has terrifying power


    when ites to the martial arts scene.


    “With their recent development of super warriors, they’ve taken over


    almost half of the martial arts circles in Moliga.”


    “Super warriors?” Nash was puzzled. “When did they appear?”


    Four years ago, the Charlie family was not even part of the Martial


    Arts Realm. Yet, in just four short years, they had somehowe to


    dominate half of the martial arts circles?”


    Fabian replied, “About two years ago. I’m quite familiar with the youn


    sir of the Charlie family. I’ll negotiate with him, but don’t hold too


    much hope.”


    Nash calmly replied, “If it can be settled, then settle it. If not, I’ll handle it myself.”


    Fabian sneered. “While you have the power to be arrogant, I advise


    you to be more low-key when facing the Charlie family. They’re not


    people you can afford to provoke.”


    Nash did not bother replying to that and just ended the call.


    Fabian had been grooming his pet cat in his luxurious mansion. He was sitting on the couch with a


    stunned look on his face. Nash had hung up on him again. Very few people dared to do that to him.


    After taking a deep breath and suppressing his anger, Fabian dialed


    another number.


    “Mr. Hughes, how are you?” the voice on the other end greeted him. “Did someone from the Charlie


    family die?” Fabian asked directly.
