Chapter 5020
Lilian Yates was not too thrilled about the idea.
“What if Young Master John decides to help?
“Don’t forget! Cedric Lopez is Elodie Jean’s boyfriend! That man is Young Master John’s friend!
“There’s a huge chance that he’ll take action!”
“He won’t!
Harvey showed a determined expression.
“Blaine John has no use for the Corpse Walkers anymore.
“Besides, Blaine still has a headache about Darby Xavier’s situation. He has no time to deal with such a trivial matter at the moment.
Mandy was confused. She did not quite get what Harvey meant by that statement.
“You don’t get it?” Harvey asked while he glanced at Mandy.
“The Jean family took action and got the underground casino swept up.
“Darby was also arrested and locked up.
“At the same time, dozens of ledgers there point towards
Blaine’s involvement with the casino.
“This is clearly a violation of the country’s law. This alone should be enough for them to stay behind bars for a while.”
“What?!
Mandy gasped with a horrible expression.
She did not think the Jean family would actually do anything about the situation, let alone deal with it that way.
‘How is this supposed to solve anything?!
‘Both sides are being torn apart for this!
‘Blaine definitely wouldn’t lend a hand to Reuben for this…
‘But when Blaine and Darby come out…’
Mandy felt a sudden headache.
“Let’s talk about our current problem for now,” said Harvey.
“Judging from the situation, Reuben definitely has no support in the city. This means that his support of Elodie’s rise wouldn’t have any effect.
“I heard that Elodie even promised all the higher-ups and shareholders’ dividends to multiply at the end of the year…
“How can she even accomplish that?
“Using her words?
“The higher-ups who are used to living in decadence would have their salaries cut off. Who would even want such a thing?
“The ninth branch is surely in a mess right now!
“That phone call only means that Reuben’s starting to panic!
“After all, hidden enemies are harder to deal with…”
Lilian instinctively nodded.
‘I have to admit, this bastard’s quite capable…
‘He completely sees through everyone…’
Lilian was treating the Ostrane One as her own house at this point.
She would surely go against anyone trying to stop her from enjoying herself.
“Good point. If so, we’ll just hang low for now.”
Mandy also understood the situation.
“Let’s find a place to go on a vacation. We’ll turn our phones off and have some fun for a couple of days. Someone’s bound to go nuts after that…”
Lilian nodded.
“That’s right! That way, Mandy’ll become head again!”
Simon Zimmer’s eyes lit up.
“If Reuben can’t deal with the situation, what else can he do other than to give up Elodie’s position?”
“You’re awesome, Harvey! You made that old fox give up with just a few words!” commended Xynthia, clapping her hands.
“Oh, dear son-in-law! I knew I could rely on you!” said Lilian with a forced smile.
“You should stay for the meal today!”
