“Father.”

“You heard about your brothers, right?” Oliver asked.

“I’ve heard,” Silas replied with a complicated expression. “This won’t be something easy to handle. The Inspection Department operates under the chairman’s jurisdiction. With our position among the

shareholders, we don’t have the qualification to appeal to the

chairman.”

“No wonder the Inspection Department acts so boldly,” Oliver said as he massaged his temples. To save Travis and Queenie, they had to persuade the Inspection Department and the Legal Department to

drop the charges.

The Graham family held some stake in Universal Group. He had intended to leverage their status as a shareholder to talk to the director of the Inspection Department, but now it looked like the approach was off the table.

“Minnie will return to the country tomorrow. I’ll have her talk to M

Calcraft,” Silas suggested.

Oliver sighed softly. “We can only do that now.”

Meanwhile, Nash had just returned to Royal Bay with Hera when he received a call from Angelica. This made him wonder if information had turned up about Cassie. Nash quickly fished out his phone and

answered the call.

“Mr. Calcraft, Miss Queenie has something to say to you,” Angelica

said before handing the phone to Queenie.

Queenie’s voice sounded from the other end of the line. “Nash, I can let go of the matter with Justin. As long as you withdraw the lawsuit, I

can get the Charlie family to spare you!”

Nash was slightly startled. “You’re the one directing the Charlie

family?”

Queenie replied casually, “I don’t know what you’re saying, but you should get what I’m trying to say. My eldest sister is the girlfriend of the heir apparent of the Charlie family. All my sister needs to do is

give the word and the family will stop troubling you.”

“Is there anything else?” Nash smiled faintly.

“If you persist in your stubbornness, then just wait for the fury of the

Charlie family to befall you!” Queenie said and hung up the phone.

coldly.

Nash put away his phone nonchalantly as Hera asked in a quiet voice,

“Did someone really instruct Leon to approach me?”

Nash sat on the couch and pulled Hera onto his lap. Smiling faint

he replied, “They want to use the Charlie family to deal with me.”

Hera became nervous at that. “You killed Leon. Won’t they do as the please now?”

Nash sneakily stuck his hand into Hera’s clothes. “It’s just a small matter. I can handle the Charlie family with just one phone call.”

Hera grabbed Nash’s restless hand, a frown crossing her features.” The Charlie family is one of the three major financial conglomerate families in Moliga. They’re powerful. How are you going to handle

them?”

Nash withdrew his hand and pressed it to his nose, taking a sniff. This made Hera blush. “Do you have to be so lewd?”

Nash took out his phone and dialed Fabian’s number. He believed Fabian could help him deal with the matter. However, when Fabian. heard that Nash had killed someone from the Charlie family, he

immediately fell silent.

After a long pause, Fabian said slowly, “You may have gotten yourself into big trouble this time. The Charlie family has terrifying power

when it comes to the martial arts scene.

“With their recent development of super warriors, they’ve taken over

almost half of the martial arts circles in Moliga.”

“Super warriors?” Nash was puzzled. “When did they appear?”

Four years ago, the Charlie family was not even part of the Martial

Arts Realm. Yet, in just four short years, they had somehow come to

dominate half of the martial arts circles?”

Fabian replied, “About two years ago. I’m quite familiar with the youn

sir of the Charlie family. I’ll negotiate with him, but don’t hold too

much hope.”

Nash calmly replied, “If it can be settled, then settle it. If not, I’ll handle it myself.”

Fabian sneered. “While you have the power to be arrogant, I advise

you to be more low-key when facing the Charlie family. They’re not

people you can afford to provoke.”

Nash did not bother replying to that and just ended the call.

Fabian had been grooming his pet cat in his luxurious mansion. He was sitting on the couch with a stunned look on his face. Nash had hung up on him again. Very few people dared to do that to him.

After taking a deep breath and suppressing his anger, Fabian dialed

another number.

“Mr. Hughes, how are you?” the voice on the other end greeted him. “Did someone from the Charlie family die?” Fabian asked directly.
