Chapter 580

Liam had put the phone call on speaker, so everyone in the room heard the conversation just now.

Upon hearing Miss Hill’s words, the four people in the room fell dead silent.

They had been waiting here to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony with their hearts full of joy. Who wouldhave expected such a serious thing to happen? Their 300-million worth of investment had gone down thedrain within just three days!

Helen was so panic-stricken that her face was streaming with sweat. “W-Why would this happen? Didn’tyou say that this investment was sure to make money? Why was the project suddenly halted? Liam, y-you must explain to me what exactly is going on here!”

This was 300 million that they were talking about! She already had a lingering fear after they wereswindled out of money last time. Now that such a thing happened to them again, she was really drivento the verge of madness.

Lian was sweating profusely as well. “Mom, I-I also have no idea what is going on. This investment isbacked by the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff, so… how could it have failed? There must besomething wrong with this. Just stay calm while I call somebody to ask about it. The Lach Family istremendously powerful as it’s one of the Ten Greatest Families, so how could such a thing possiblyhappen to it?”

Helen urged desperately, “Hurry up and make the call, then!”

Liam took out his cell phone and asked around anxiously. Finally, he got the news from a friend of his.

As it turned out, the Lach Family had been caught in an internal struggle ever since Old Mr. Lach passedaway half a month ago.

Being ganged up against by his siblings, Young Master Lach’s father was in danger of losing his positionas the current head of the Lach Family. Such circumstances had caused Young Master Lach to be shortof capital.

Wanting to help his father strengthen his position and take control of the Lach Family, Young MasterLach raised funds everywhere. However, just two days ago, his father died unexpectedly in a caraccident on his way home from a business trip.

With that, his father lost the internal struggle completely, causing Young Master Lach to be regarded byhis uncles as an enemy due to his status as the Lach Family’s heir.

This development project of his was problematic in the first place. Seizing the opportunity, Young MasterLach’s uncles launched an attack on him, causing the development project to be halted. As a result,Young Master Lach was arrested.

In other words, the Lach Family certainly wouldn’t care about Young Master Lach at this point, and thisdevelopment project of his was definitely finished. This development project was what the Lach Familywas using against him, so how could the Lach Family possibly resume it?

Having heard the news, Liam slumped to the floor right away.

He knew that the 300 million he had invested was considered to be lost. Young Master Lachmisappropriated the money and would surely be sentenced to prison for it. Having made a clean breakwith him, the Lach Family definitely wouldn’t take on his debts.

In other words, he didn’t even know who he could ask to get the transferred money back!

James and the other two were stupefied as well. Sitting beside Liam on the sofa in a daze, they didn’tcome to their senses for a long time.

“W-What should we do now?” asked Demi in a trembling voice.

Liam hung his head without saying a word.

Flopping onto the floor with a plop, Helen wailed, “Oh, no. We’re doomed this time! So we lost the 300million just like that? Why am I subjected to such misfortune? Why would I have a worthless son-in-lawlike you? Just look at what you have done! G-Give the 300 million back to me…”

Feeling embarrassed, Liam replied, “Mom, t-this can’t be blamed solely on me. I didn’t know that such athing would happen. Young Master Lach did this. Besides, who would have known that such a thingwould happen to the Lach Family? I-I’m also a victim!”

James scolded, “Stop talking rubbish! It was you who assured us back then that this investment wouldabsolutely make a lot of money, so you must bear the responsibility for it right now!”

Liam panicked upon hearing his words. “Dad, t-this is 300 million we’re talking about! How am I going tobear the debt? It wasn’t my sole decision to invest the money. We decided together to make theinvestment, so how could you let me bear the debt alone?”

James rebutted, “What do you mean by saying so? Do you want me and your Mom to share the debtwith you?”
