Landry Group.Because Granny Quinn had already retired for many years, Jim had to go through much effort to obtain Granny Quinn's number.By the time he managed to get in touch with her, the reporters and spectators outside the building had already been chased off.The only people that remained were the actors from the PR firm, who were protesting alongside Cheryl's parents.Jim narrowed his eyes and dialed Granny Quinn's number as he watched the people from the security cameras. "Hello, Granny Quinn."He let out an exhale and continued, "I want to ask you something; does the PR firm under Quinn Group take every job offer that comes its way?"On the other end of the line, Granny Quinn leaned against the sofa and took a puff of her cigar as she said lazily, "Why would you say this, Master Landry?"Jim let out a sneer. "According to my investigation, the people causing trouble at my office doorstep all belong to a PR firm under Quinn Group."Now that everyone in Merchant City kno
Jim narrowed his eyes and hung up the phone with a thud. Then, he leaned against his seat as he panted.The Landry and Quinn families had already been bound together for a while, and he could not possibly untie those bonds after just a day of taking over.The company that had run into trouble was the Quinn Group, not the Landry Group, yet while he was busy reviving and fixing the two corporations, the Quinn family was plotting how to take over the authority to the two companies!Jim slammed his fists against his desk in anger, gritting his teeth.In the past, Jim used to think Malcolm was cruel, but he finally knew whose genes Malcolm had inherited."Vice President Landry." All of a sudden, the secretary knocked and entered his office. "We've already invited Cheryl's parents to the VIP room, but the two of them appear to be psychologically unstable… Do you want to go over and take a look?"Jim let out an exhale, stood up, and followed the secretary into the VIP room.The floor w
Landry Group could not afford to pay 500 million dollars at all!Besides, even if they could afford it, Jim would not be willing to hand over this money to the Martins over something like this.Seeing the pained expression on Jim's face, Mr. Martin sneered and leaned against the back of his chair. "We won't stop until we get the five hundred million dollars."Before being brought over to the tower, the people at the PR firm had already told them that Landry Group was capable of paying them 500 million dollars in compensation and that the problem was whether they were willing to do so or not.The reputation of the Landry family, one of the most influential families in Merchant City, was worth far more than 500 million dollars!Jim could not help snickering when he heard this. "I'm afraid that even if you manage to get your hands on these five hundred million dollars, you won't live long enough to spend it!"Secretary, kick these two people out of here. If they come to cause a scen
"How can they expose our daughter's personal information all over the web?"No one was perfect, and neither was Cheryl, of course.Among the people interviewed, some of them had exposed all of the bad things Cheryl had done in the past.Some of them claimed that Cheryl wanted to become a mistress and tried to force Joshua to fall in love with her, despite knowing his heart belonged to someone else…On top of that, even the salesperson at the store where Cheryl had bought her dress was interviewed.All this negative news struck Mr. and Mrs. Martin like waves.Their daughter had already died, but even after that, her personal information and past experiences had been exposed to the entire world to see.Even after changing the channel, the headlines of multiple news channels were about Cheryl.Mr. Martin was so angry that his entire body started to shake, and he had to hold onto the doorway to keep himself steady.Mrs. Martin, on the other hand, cried so hard that her throat had
Lucas' jaw dropped in shock.It turned out that…the fingerprint left on the murder weapon was not that of a right index finger.This was just a piece of false information leaked out by Joshua and the police to lure the murderer.The murderer would surely try to destroy any evidence pointing toward them as soon as they found out about the fingerprint.Therefore, anyone who was desperate to get rid of the finger that had allegedly left behind a fingerprint at the scene of the crime would be the murderer!As soon as he thought of this, Lucas could not help admiring Joshua's intelligence. He raised his thumbs at Joshua and said, "What a great plan, Sir!"Joshua shot him an impassive glance but did not reply.Lucas meekly pulled his hand back and continued, "Well, Sir, since we already know that Hunter Quinn was the one who had killed Cheryl…would the police take any action?"Will Ma'am be able to get released from jail after the police arrest Hunter?"Joshua narrowed his eyes and
Visitors were not allowed at night, but the woman emanated such a terrifyingly sinister aura that the police on duty made an exception for her and let her in.Luna was awoken from her sleep.She could not stop asking the prison guard who the visitor was as she followed her out of the cell.However, the prison guard could not offer her any information apart from the visitor's gender. The visitor was a woman.Luna furrowed her brows, thinking it was Gwen.To her surprise, it was a strange woman dressed entirely in black and wearing a pair of sunglasses.Luna entered the visitation room, frowning, and sat down across from the woman. "You are…""Let me introduce myself." The woman lifted her head to smile at Luna. "My name is Charlotte Jacobs, I'm about the same age as you, and I was your brother Jim's first girlfriend."Luna widened her eyes in shock.Jim's…first girlfriend?How did she not know that Jim had ever had a girlfriend before?Ever since she returned to the Landry fa
The entire room fell silent.Luna stared at the woman before her, whom half of her face had been destroyed. "What are your conditions?"All she wanted was to get out of jail.However, Luna knew fully well that she would never be released unless Joshua changed his mind.Even though she was in jail, she was still protected by the four female bodyguards whom he had sent in, and she could not have her freedom from him, even in prison.If Charlotte's condition was not too outrageous, what was the harm of agreeing to it?"My condition is that after you're released from jail and take over Landry Group as CEO, you have to hire me as your secretary or assistant. As for everything you do, including strategies of running the company, you'll have to listen to what I say."Luna furrowed her brows and stared at Charlotte with a puzzled look. She had thought that…Charlotte would want her to help bring her and Jim together again.However, it turned out her only request was this.Charlotte smi
Maybe, as Bonnie's friend, Luna should not have let Charlotte stay at all, but…There were just some things that could not be avoided at all.She did not want Bonnie to avoid her problems just as she had done in the past, which ended up forcing both her relationships and marriage into deep trouble.Because of Charlotte's sudden visit, Luna could not fall asleep at all and instead tossed and turned the entire night.Luna only managed to take a short nap as dawn neared.She was woken by the prison guard at 6 a.m. and sent to freshen up, eat breakfast, and let out into the exercise yard.After running in circles on the field for a while, the prison guard stopped her, claiming that another woman had come to visit her.Luna was sure it would be Gwen this time, but to her surprise, it was the last person she wanted to see.Heather."What are you doing here?" Luna narrowed her eyes, staring at the woman who was only a table apart from her, and said, sneering, "Are you here to jeer at
