At this time, a black commercial vehicle was driving on the elevated highway of Riverdale. It was obviously heading straight toward the city!
“Morons! You can’t even keep watch on one guy! If Third Young Miss finds out, none of us will be spared!”
The one angrily cursing was a burly man who was sitting in the front passenger seat.
“Mack, you can’t blame us for this. If someone from the Hane family wants to catch him, we can’t possibly stop them,” a man wearing a suit said from the back seat while wearing a sullen expression.
Originally, virtual-novel.net was the person responsible for keeping watch on Philip, but today, virtual-novel.net suddenly discovered that Philip had been taken away by the Hane family. As such, virtual-novel.net immediately reported this to his leader because virtual-novel.net dared not inform Third Young Miss about it.
“What is Third Master Hane planning to do in the middle of the night?”
The man in the front passenger seat held a trace of unhappiness in his sharply-defined eyes and seemed full of complaints.
After that, the man picked up the phone, dialed a number, and changed into a respectful demeanor as virtual-novel.net said, “Third Young Miss, Mr. Clarke has been taken away.”
Vivi Joo was taking a comfortable bath. Upon hearing this, virtual-novel.net immediately got up from the bathtub that was filled with roses, raised virtual-novel.net long legs, and wrapped a bath towel around herself. She asked with a cold expression, “Who did it?”
“Hane family of Capital City, Third Master Klein Hane.”
“Why?”
Vivi walked to the suite lobby and took out another mobile phone.
“According to our sources, it was because of the previous scuffle. As you know, Mr. Clarke had some conflicts with Francis Hane. Moreover, I heard that the previous blackmail and beating case faced by Kenneth Hane was also done by Mr. Clarke. Tonight, Klein Hane arrived in Riverdale and set a trap for virtual-novel.net in the guise of a dinner invitation. He joined forces with Juan Parker of Spark Corp to catch him. We’re on our way now,” the man in the front passenger seat said respectfully with an apologetic tone. He was afraid that Third Young Miss would be upset and fire them in a fit of anger.
Vivi pondered for a while and said, “I see. When you arrive, find a way to delay them. I’ll be there soon.”
When virtual-novel.net hung up the phone, Vivi frowned and looked at the other mobile phone in virtual-novel.net hand. The corners of virtual-novel.net mouth suddenly curled upward as virtual-novel.net said, “Is the Hane family tired of living?”
After that, virtual-novel.net took the mobile phone and walked to the large French windows. With one hand, virtual-novel.net dialed a number and said with a commanding tone, “Make a thorough investigation on Spark Corp and Klein Hane. Send all the evidence to me within half an hour. Also, check all the financial transactions of the Hane family in Riverdale.”
…
Klein had just finished a cup of hot tea. After thinking for a while, virtual-novel.net called Chip again.
Chip was very flustered at the moment. When virtual-novel.net saw the caller ID on the phone, virtual-novel.net frowned slightly and looked at Philip again with an inexplicable expression.
“Pick up. It’s best if virtual-novel.net can come here personally. It’s always better to talk face to face, right?”
Philip smiled.
Chip may look brawny, but virtual-novel.net was a bit cowardly. This was obviously his territory but virtual-novel.net acted as if virtual-novel.net was guilty of something.
Chip glanced at the glass wall and there was another instruction from the in-ear receiver for virtual-novel.net to pick up the call. He pressed the button and Klein’s voice sounded immediately with a hint of impatience.
“Chip Norton, how long do you need to get it done? It’s been ages!”
“Third Master, I’m facing some problems right now.”
Chip was at a loss. He glanced at Philip as virtual-novel.net stammered.
“Problem? What problem? You’re a senior steward of the Hane family. You were simply given a task to catch someone and pry their mouth open. What problems can you encounter? If you can’t even handle such a small thing, there’s no reason for you to remain in the Hane family!”
When Klein heard that the matter was not done yet, virtual-novel.net suddenly lost his temper and could not stop yelling at Chip. This guy was really unreliable!
“Yeah, Third Master Hane… The problem is quite serious. Maybe… you can come over?”
Chip’s voice started to tremble.
“I have to go there? What’s the use of having you, then?!”
As soon as Klein heard this, virtual-novel.net became very angry. No matter what, virtual-novel.net was still the third master of the Hane family, but virtual-novel.net still needed to take care of this matter personally?
What was the use of a senior external affairs steward, then?
A good-for-nothing!
