My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy)
Chapter 134 The White Group Went Bankrupt

Sophia had heard a slap when she was thinking. However, it wasn't Amy that had been hit, but Sophia herself.

"Why did you hit my wife?" William was unhappy to see Mrs. Newell slap his wife.

"Who are you? You are lucky that I only slapped her instead of suing her. It was her who told me that Mr. Newell and a woman were upstairs. It's obvious that she planned all this." Mrs. Newell said to William with disdain.

William didn't reply. He knew how powerful the Newell Group was at home and abroad, and what Mrs. Newell said seemed quite reasonable.

"It's not me. I just heard it from someone. How can you accuse me?" Sophia cried. It killed William to see her sad face.

"You heard it? If I'm not mistaken, your family name is White, right? Ms. White, why did you bring so many people here for a rumor? Do you think we're all idiots? I don't believe you didn't arrange it!" Seeing that the doctor was here, Mrs. Newell let him in but stopped Sophia at the door to teach her a lesson.

"Mrs. Newell, please, come in and calm down." Cathy was irritated as well, but this was a family scandal. It was really a disgrace for one of her daughters-in-law to plot against the other.

"All of you, go out. If something like this happens again, I will have to punish the culprit." The two sons of Halbert's ex-wife were a pain in the neck for Cathy.

Sophia wanted to say something else, but she was pulled away by William. William knew that Sophia had done it. However, she was his wife. He had always doted on Sophia, so he didn't say anything. "William, do you believe me? I didn't do it." Sophia still wanted her husband to believe in her kindness.

William didn't know what to say, so he just nodded.

"I believe you." He held Sophia in his arms. Sophia was extremely annoyed. She had thought that she could definitely take down Amy this time, but she didn't expect Mr. Newell to be such a gentleman. Mrs. Newell was weird. She didn't even ask her husband why he was here with Amy but instead walked straight towards Amy. Was there something more she didn't know?

"Darling, why is Mrs. Newell so nice to Amy? She looks so nervous as if Amy were her own daughter." Sophia asked William as she couldn't figure it out.

William didn't understand either. "Perhaps Mrs. Newell has other plots that we don't know. Forget it, honey, don't overthink it. Overthinking will age you. If you get old, you won't be beautiful." William always liked to say so.

"What? Am I getting old?" This was William's most successful trick. Every time he said so, Sophia would look in the mirror for a very long time, and he could enjoy the quiet again.

If Mrs. Newell really had any other thoughts about Amy, the White Group would definitely suffer as Sophia had offended Mrs. Newell.

Thinking of this, William felt that he should warn her father-in-law. Recently, the Wilson Group had offended Mrs. Newell somehow, and the latter called off the project on which they had worked together. "It's alright. William, we never work with the Newell Group. She can't make things difficult for me." Damian, William's father-in-law, had a disdainful look on his face. His company wasn't big, and it had nothing to do with the Newell Group yet.

"I hope so. Anyway, you just have to be careful." William knew that the Newell Group was too small to have anything to do with the White Group.

Not even half an hour after the call with Damian, Sophia came crying to see William.

"William, what's going on? The White Group's share price plunged, and it will soon go bankrupt."

"

Oh lord! This was just too soon. He just called his father-in-law half an hour earlier. Except for the Newell Group, only the Carter Group could be able to do this. "Honey, calm down. Leave it to me." William had got his hands tied. The Newell Group and the Carter Group were on par, but in fact the Newell was better slightly. Besides, William wasn't that powerful in the Carter Group. He was only the manager of a branch, and he couldn't save the White Group.

"Come on, do something." Sophia urged William while Damian called.

"William, William, you must save our company. It's going to be bankrupt soon. The stock prices collapsed." Damian didn't care if he was mortified but begged William.

"Damian, I'm sorry, there's nothing I can help." After thinking for a while, William felt that he was unable to help. It might be better if Richard were here, but Sophia was scheming against Richard's wife today, so he would not help either.

Well, Sophia asked for it. William did not dare to say it out because he loved her too much.

"Why not? You're one of the Carters. Why can't the Carters save us? You don't want to save us, do you? I really shouldn't have married my daughter to you!" Damian was angry. He was willing to kneel to anyone who was able to save his company.

An hour later, everything was settled. The White Group had disappeared from R City completely.

As John's birthday banquet was over, many people left happily. On such an occasion, many of them had took the chance and made big deals.

Yet, some people were helpless. This banquet was really a surprise.

"Honey, say something," William urged Sophia.

"William, what else do you want me to say? My family went bankrupt just like that, but as a Carter, there's nothing you can do about it. What else can I say?" Sophia looked at William resentfully. William felt embarrassed for his current identity, but it didn't matter. He believed that it wouldn't be long before everyone looked up to him.

He couldn't tell Sophia about this. He wanted to give her a surprise.

"Alright, don't say anything if you don't want to. No matter what you do, I am always here for you." William embraced Sophia, wanting to give her a sense of security, but Sophia was disgusted by his action.
