Chapter 1021

Just then, three people wearing suits with badges pinned to their lapels walked over.

The woman leading the team took out a complaint document and a

detention certificate as she said woodenly, “Travis Graham and

Queenie Graham, you’ve been sued by Universal Group again!”

The two were stunned.

What…

What was going on?

Had they not just gotten the lawsuits dropped?

Why were they getting sued again?

It was in the middle of the afternoon.

Cressida sat in an outdoor restaurant at Jonford Grand Hotel and

frowned as she spoke into the phone, “What? You’ve gotten sued

again?”

“That’s right. I was asking around and found out that the prosecution

is the Jonford branch office of Universal Group!”

“Got it. You should head back soon!”

Cressida hung up the phone and shared the news she had just

received with the blonde-haired man sitting at the other end of the

table.

He was Lasso Charlie, the heir of the Charlie family.

“Well, if Fabian isn’t showing me any respect, I don’t have to either!”

Lasso snapped his fingers.

One of the masked and suited men standing behind him immediately

came forth.

Cressida sighed. “Looks like I’ll have to get my brother involved!”

As she finished her sentence, she took her phone out and dialed her

brother’s number.

“Chase…”

“Have you arrived home, Cressida?”

“Yes, I arrived not too long ago. But I’m at Jonford right now!”

“When will you be back in Capiton? I’ll treat you to a meal!”

“Chase, have you heard about what has happened to Travis and

Queenie?”

“Yes. Dad and Grandpa have reached out to me, but I’ve turned down their requests. They should take responsibility for their actions!” the man on the other end of the line said in a frosty voice.

“We’re family, Chase. Is this really necessary? Our uncles handed over

their rights to the family’s resources to us, and I think it’s only right that we help their kids out now that they’ve gotten into trouble!”

Cressida said as she smiled sadly.

“Alright, enough of that topic. I’m not interested in putting my future at risk!” Chase said in an even frostier tone.

“Alright!”

Unable to say anything else, Cressida hung up the phone.

Her brother was an elder at the National Martial Bureau, which made

it much trickier for him to get involved in this matter.

It looked like her cousins would have to spend some time,

incarcerated.

“Nash Calcraft!

“What good do you think will come out of offending both the Graham

and Charlie families at the same time?”

Cressida narrowed her eyes as she muttered to herself.

Lasso smiled as he said, “I’ve already sent someone after him. We’ll

be hearing news of his death in about three hours or less!”

Cressida nodded, the corners of her lips turning upward slightly.

Nash treated Juan and the others to a quick meal purchased from a roadside stall. Then, he received a call from Angelica.

“What? Ishmael Morkov?”

Nash was surprised.

Why had he arrived so soon despite saying he would only be here

several days later?

Cassie had not been found yet, so how was he supposed to face Grandpa Morkov?

“That’s right. They seem to be wearing the Mallefic tribe’s traditional clothing. Do you know them?”

“Yes, I know them. Please bring them to the main entrance. I’ll be right there!”

Nash hurriedly drove over to the Inspection Office where Angelica

worked./

An old man and a middle-aged man stood at the entrance.

The old man seemed to be in his 80s, while the middle-aged man

looked like he was in his 40s.

Nahs smiled as he got out of his car. “Grandpa Morkov, Mr. Morkov!”,

“Nash!”

Ishmael’s eyes lit up when he saw Nash. However, when he saw one-million-dollar car Nash was driving, he frowned. “What are y doing, young one? Aren’t you embarrassed to be driving a crappy or

million-dollar car around?”

Angelica, who was standing at the entrance, was dumbfounded.

A crappy one-million-dollar car?

Those who could afford to drive a G-Wagon like this would have

already achieved financial freedom, right?

Was this old man going senile?

Nash opened his car door and chuckled awkwardly as he said, “Cars aren’t that big a deal when they’re just used to transport you from one place to another. Besides, this car is one that I’m loaning!”

Every family in the Parasite Colony was rich, and the Morkov family was the richest among all the rich.

The people of the colony enjoyed comparing themselves to others. They would never be able to bring themselves to drive a car that only cost a million dollars out in public.

Ishmael abruptly turned to Nash and said, “Oh, right. Cassie is at your place, isn’t she? I got so nervous because she wasn’t picking up her calls. And I couldn’t get in touch with you either!”
