Chapter 103 The End Of The Chomsky Family

No matter how dense he might be, Tristan could tell that the information they had regarding Finnegan was incomplete.

There were still numerous secrets Finnegan kept hidden..

How else could he explain Alisha's sudden appearance and her readiness to aid Finnegan in taking down. the Chomsky family?

With a cold tone, Finnegan said, "You'll discover soon enough!"

He then strode into the mansion. "Keep a close watch on them. Don't let them get a chance to make any

calls."

As long as Tristan's side had no updates, Bernice's captors would refrain from doing anything reckless, thus ensuring Bernice's safety.

"Tristan, it's in your best interest to reveal where Bernice is. If you cooperate, I might grant you a painless death," Alisha jeered after Finnegan was gone.

Tristan sensed the eerie calm before the storm. Yet, he clung to a glimmer of hope. "I'll never tell you."

Bernice was his final trump card.

He believed Finnegan wouldn't harm him until Bernice's safety was confirmed.

"You'll regret this!" Alisha huffed.

Just as she uttered those words, Tristan's right-hand man, Arlo, who had been cowering in a corner, received a phone call.

Noticing Alisha's inaction, he answered the call with trembling hands.

His face immediately paled. "Boss, things aren't looking good. Mr. White just got a flood of calls from business partners severing ties with Tristan Group, unilaterally ending their partnerships. These are all crucial partners that keep the gears turning smoothly for Tristan Group!"

Tristan's expression grew darker.

He had anticipated this when Alisha made the call, yet he remained composed.

He believed that the lost business partners could be won back if he could weather this storm.

However, Arlo's phone rang again, and Tristan's heart sank as he sensed that something even worse was imminent.

"Boss, we're in serious trouble. The Miles and Haimowitz families just declared that they won't consider partnering with anyone who a*sociates with Tristan Group. What's more, the affluent Langdon family from Nuthana abruptly terminated ongoing projects with Tristan Group. They even announced plans to blacklist Tristan Group in related industries!"

Tristan's head spun.

He wailed, "Why do the Miles, Haimowitz, and Langdon families have to stand against the Chomsky family as well?"

Alisha sneered, "Because the heads of these families were rescued by Finnegan before, so they owe him big time. Your source was poorly informed, and that's why you guys missed this detail. Is hope slipping away from you now?"

Tristan's chest weighed heavy as anger surged through him.

He bellowed, "You incompetent fool!"

He had entrusted everything to Arlo, but Arlo had let him down. Not only had the latter failed to uncover the reason behind Finnegan and his family moving to Dragon Bay, but he had also missed such a critical piece of information.

What Tristan didn't know was that all of this was meticulously orchestrated by Finnegan, leading the Chomsky family down a path of ruin while keeping them in the dark.

As Arlo struggled to replace a response, his face red from embarra*sment, his phone rang once again.

This time, Arlo was hesitant to pick up the call.

"Answer the call already!" Tristan roared.

He believed that nothing could be worse than losing all his business partners and facing blacklisting from the Miles, Haimowitz, and Langdon families.

Yet, the news Arlo delivered after answering the call left him even more shattered.

"Boss, the police department has suddenly pinned the traffic accident on Orchard Road this morning on you. They've issued an arrest warrant, and on top of that, the city council has joined forces with various departments, working through the night to investigate Tristan Group. Allegations include illegal operations and tax evasion. Some of the executives have already been taken into custody from their homes."

Pfi!

Tristan had reached his breaking point. The news hit him so hard that his blood pressure surged, causing him to cough up a mouthful of blood before losing consciousness.

Alisha moved in and swiftly knocked Arlo unconscious with a single punch. She then glanced at Killian, who was sprawled on the ground and mumbling about the cruel twist of fate.

After all that, she entered the mansion, only to replace Finnegan composedly sipping on tea. "They've all pa*sed out," she reported.

Finnegan responded with a hum.

Alisha's eyes sparkled with an intriguing glint at that. "Finnegan, has anyone ever mentioned how incredibly cool you are?"

Finnegan had maintained his calm demeanor despite his deep concern for Bernice's safety.

Alisha had never encountered anyone quite like him, even among the older generation.

He had managed to maneuver the immensely wealthy Chomsky family, who held billions in a*sets, into a dire situation involving the city council.

His poised manner and meticulously calculated moves captivated Alisha.

However, Finnegan continued sipping his tea, seemingly oblivious to her question. Alisha had no choice but to wait by the sidelines.

Around fifteen minutes later, Finnegan's phone rang. It was a call from Reynard.

"I've done some digging. The person behind Ms. Zimmerman's abduction is Rocky, one of Tyrone's a*sociates. He has a grudge against you because you were indirectly responsible for causing Tyrone to kill his brother. He reached out to Tristan in secret to form an alliance, driven by a desire to take you down. Their plan is pretty straightforward. Get you in their sights and eliminate you, regardless of whether you. surrender or not. They didn't count on you being so a*sertive, which disrupted their plan. I've already sent a small group from Phoenix Team to move in and rescue Ms. Zimmerman."

Finnegan placed his teacup down, a quizzical look on his face. "Rocky? The one who manages Ark Bar?"

Alisha's complexion turned ashen upon hearing that.

Why is Tyrone's men involved in this?

Reynard confirmed, "That's the one. However, he remains unaware of Tristan's failure and believes you're currently treating Killian, so for now, Ms. Zimmerman is still safe."

"Is Tyrone implicated in this?"

Alisha's breath hitched at the question, her palms starting to perspire.

The morning accident had already left Finnegan dissatisfied with her.

If Tyrone's involvement was confirmed in the kidnapping, Finnegan's disappointment with the Wahlstrom -family would deepen even further.

Reynard responded, "Our sources indicate that Tyrone paid Rocky fifty million and instructed him to leave after you left Ark that night. It seems the two of them have cut ties. I'm inclined to believe Tyrone might not be involved."

Finnegan's I*ps curved into a sneer. "Tyrone paid him fifty million after killing his brother. Quite the generous and audacious move. He's really not afraid of revenge, is he?"

Finnegan's words made Alisha's eyelids twitch. He swiftly changed the subject. "So, where's Bernice?"

"She's in the house next to your former residence. That whole area is deserted now."

A sardonic smile played on Finnegan's I*ps. "They're attempting to hide in plain sight. Thanks for your

a*sistance."

After ending the call, Finnegan left the room.

He towered over Killian, staring down at the man who had caused him immense suffering five years ago. "Do you regret your choices now?"

"Finnegan, it was a terrible mistake. Please spare my family," Killian pleaded, his voice shaking.

He recognized that the fate of the Chomsky family was sealed. If he wanted to save himself and his family. begging Finnegan for mercy was his only option.

Finnegan's response was icy. "It seems you're starting to feel remorse! Unfortunately for you, I'll echo the

words you spoke to my father five years ago. You're free to beg me, but I'm not inclined to grant you. mercy."

With that, Finnegan headed outside, putting an end to his grudge against the Chomsky family that had spanned five years. "Inform those who need to remain silent to do just that, then rouse Tristan. up with

this message. If he and his son meet their end before midnight, the other family members will be spared. Otherwise, wipe out every member of the Chomsky family!"

Killian's complexion drained of color. He screamed in fear, "Finnegan, please spare me!"

Alisha sighed. "You're reaping what you sowed. Remember this in your next life."
