My Substitute CEO Bride -
Chapter 508
Chapter 508
“You beat up Hunter Hill?”
Lauren sounded surprised.
Hera had indeed not shared this information with her. She had even wondered why Hunter had needed to be hospitalized for such a long time.
“In that case, it’s highly likely the Hill family is also the mastermind behind the fire at Baroque Group’s factory!
“Il pass this tip over to Chief Holt. He might be able to gain some
useful information from it!”
Lauren immediately hung up the phone and phoned Jupiter.
Once Jupiter took down Lauren’s tip, he and Angelica immediately began conducting a stealthy investigation into Innovate Collective and the Hill family.
News that Xeno and Salvatore had divided the land belonging to the
Black Tiger Hall between them spread like wildfire.
The business and political circles in Jonford were in turmoil.
Henderson grabbed his thermos and walked into Jade’s office. The
minute he opened the door, he said impatiently, “Townsend… thoughts on what’s going on with the Black Tiger Hall?”
He walked toward the water cooler and began filling up his thermos.
Jade had just learned of this news over the phone, and Henderson
had not bothered knocking before he entered the room. He was so startled he jumped out of his seat before saying exasperatedly, “Next time, can you knock before you enter?”
Years of working together meant the two were as thick as thieves, and they sometimes could not be bothered with formalities.
Henderson grinned. “I’m just so used to it!”
Jade clasped his hands behind his back and walked to the window before saying, “The Black Tiger Hall is a menace to society that we should have gotten rid of long ago… Nash has done all the civilians a favor!”
Before this, there were four main underworld forces in Jonford.
The two largest ones were the Green Bamboo Association and the Black Tiger Hall.
Now, Nash had gotten rid of not just the Green Bamboo Association but the Black Tiger Hall as well.
Nash had accomplished what he had wanted but did not have the
guts to do.
Jade could not be any more happier
Henderson brought his tea over to the window and waited for it to
cool slightly before he took a sip. “Xeno and Salvatore will probably become much more powerful after taking over the Black Tiger Hall.
“I’m not too worried about Salvatore’s men, since they’ve been hard at work operating their freight company for the past few years, but I can’t stop myself from worrying about Dragon Tiger Gate!”
Jade smiled slightly. “Dragon Tiger Gate is mostly involved in
legitimate businesses, and the shady business they sometimes get up to doesn’t cross any of our lines either…
“Did you know that Dragon Tiger Gate has had the lowest crime rate among the four main forces for the past three years?”
Henderson laughed. “I’d forgotten that the young lad from the Skye family was in charge of Dragon Tiger Gate!”
Jade returned to his desk and said, “The Skye family’s patriarch holds a respectable position within Capiton’s political sphere, so he’ll definitely pay attention to the stances of the politicians within the Skye family…
“Jonford is so large. There’s no way we can control everything that’s happening in the underworld. If Xeno can keep his men under control, life will be much easier for you guys!”
At the Watson family’s estate, Queenie bounded out from the mansion happily.
She went to the garage, got into her customized pink Porsche, and
drove to school.
Once she turned off her family’s private road, she was immediately stopped by a man wearing a cap.
Then, three cars that were usually driven by her family’s bodyguards pulled to a stop nearby them.
Queenie tilted her head and took a good look.
“Kai?”
Kai Watson hurried over.
A dozen bodyguards immediately swarmed forth as well.
Kai took off his cap and asked calmly, “Can’t even recognize me anymore?”
The bodyguards did not seem to fear Kai in the slightest, and their leader said, “Mr. Kai… Sir has specifically instructed that you aren’t allowed to approach Ms. Queenie!”
Queenie waved them aside. “You may step aside!”
The bodyguard hesitated. “But…”
An ugly look appeared on Queenie’s face. “My grandpa asked you to
protect me, not to supervise me!”
Then, she gave the rest of the bodyguards a cold look. “Are you all tired of your jobs? Would you like me to have all of you replaced?”
The bodyguards exchanged glances with each other after hearing
that.
Then, the bodyguard in charge of the others sighed. The minute he
waved his hand, the rest of the bodyguards disappeared.
Queenie nodded in satisfaction and walked toward Kai, who had lost
a lot of weight. She gazed at him while saying, “Kai… how have you
been?”
Though they were just cousins, Kai had always been very loving
toward Queenie.
She felt like he was actually her older brother.
