Chapter 38
After Peter took a pick of the men and left Hex Capital, he sat inside the car for a long time.
Johann had earlier said that he was busy as of late. It was obviously some big move, and with his
disinclination to reveal anything, it must surely be a big deal.
Peter received the news that there have been many people from the gray areas who wanted to
interfere with the west side project. Some even organized a band of workers with the intention to use
the identity of a foreman to meddle with it. Johann however, had been silent on that issue.
Peter initially thought that Johann was ambitionless and did not want to participate to avoid getting
himself hurt, but it now seemed that Johann had other plans.
Could it be...
Peter was stunned. If Johann really dared to go against all the others and took control of Cloud City's
shady areas, then Johann would be a person worthy of his attention.
"Looks like I'll have to establish a good relationship with Johann in the future. If he succeeds, his power
in Cloud City would be unimaginable."
At the same time in another club.
Harvey hugged two hot women; one on his left and another on his right. Another burly man was sitting
in the same private room.
"Brother Gareth, have you considered what I spoke to you about?" Harvey said to Gareth.
Gareth Chase was one of the figures in Cloud City's underbelly and his influence was almost on par
with Johann's.
Gareth smiled at Harvey and asked, "You’re not trying t o trick me, are you Harvey? You're from the
Sue family but now you want me to secretly make moves against the Sue family. Why would I trust
you?" Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Harvey smiled coldly and said, "You've misunderstood me, Brother Gareth. Even though I belong to the
Sue family, I’m not in charge of the west side project. That Yvonne woman wants to rise the Sue
family's ranks, and if she's really allowed to do it, it'll definitely threaten my status. Why should I let the
west side project go smoothly?"
"Yvonne is your younger sibling," Gareth pointed out.
"Sibling?" Harvey's expression turned gloomy and he said, "I can't wait to kick her out of the Sue family.
Sibling, my foot. Her spineless good-for-nothing husband tarnished our Sue family's reputation on
many occasions. If not for our failure to find a proper excuse, she would've long been booted out of the
Sue family."
Gareth smiled faintly. The incident in Crystal
Restaurant allowed the Sue family scandal from three years ago to resurface yet again. While it was
indeed a n embarrassment for the Sue family, Gareth was surprised that Harvey would go to such
lengths as to ignore their blood relationship.
"That good-for-nothing really is quite amazing. He still swallows his anger and submits himself to
humiliation after being in the Sue family for three full years. I heard he does housework every day.
Such a disgrace to all men." Gareth shook his head in disdain.
Harvey never missed the opportunity to speak badly about Samuel. The chance to do so had been
gifted to him when Gareth brought up the subject of Samuel.
"Brother Gareth, the things that you know are only the tip of the iceberg. I know exactly how wretched
Samuel really is. Back at home, he even carries a bucket of water to clean Yvonne's feet. This
spineless fool doesn’t know anything about male dignity. Plus, there’s no place for him to eat at home.
He has no right to sit at the table so he can only hide in the kitchen," Harvey said with a sneer.
"Bah, he's a f*cking weakling. If I ran into this kind of person, I’d kill him with one punch," Gareth
cursed.
Harvey sighed and said, "He isn’t worthy of being a man. No other person in the world surpasses him
in uselessness."
"That's right." Gareth suddenly looked at Harvey with a smile on his face and said, "Say, do you think
Yvonne would let him touch her after three years of
marriage?" "Impossible." Harvey shook his head confidently and said, "Even though Yvonne has
accepted her fate, her relationship with Samuel has always been cold.
Samuel would never be allowed to touch her."
Gareth rubbed his chin and it was clear what his thoughts were. A lewd smile gradually appeared at the
corner of his mouth and he said, "Haven't been touched before, eh? Interesting."
Harvey's brow furrowed but soon relaxed. They were both men, so he knew what Gareth was thinking.
Although Harvey loathed Yvonne, she was still a beauty when looked at from a man's point of view.
She was in excellent shape too and would no doubt be a stunner in bed. Harvey did not dare to do stuff
like that because he was related to Yvonne by blood, but it was an entirely different matter if Gareth
were to do it.
If Gareth really did have a relationship with Yvonne, would it then be possible to drive Yvonne out of the
Sue family on the basis that she corrupted the family name?
After thinking about it, Harvey said to Gareth, "Brother Gareth, I can help you if you’re interested in
her."
"Sweet, now you're talking, hahaha. Don't worry, I'll definitely help you with what you asked," Gareth
said and laughed.
The project on the west side of the city had been officially launched. As a supplier of building materials,
the Sue family must not only guarantee the materials used but also ensure the safety of those building
materials during the time of construction.
Three days later, a group of people rushed into the construction site. They smashed the materials and
even hit anyone they saw. It was absolutely hostile. Moreover, the Sue family was forcibly blocked from
transporting building materials, and although a police report temporarily allayed the situation, those
people fought as though it was a guerrilla war and might soon appear at the next juncture. The Sue
family was very troubled by that.
On that day, the Sue family urgently convened an internal meeting and even the old lady attended it.
Since it was related to the west side project, she did not want any mistakes to happen.
"Do you know who the other party is? The motive for them to cause trouble is surely money," the old
lady asked Yvonne at the meeting. She was the project leader, and when a problem popped up, the
responsibility naturally fell on Yvonne.
Yvonne shook her head and said, "Grandma, I’ve gotten people to launch an investigation, but there
aren't any findings yet."
"There aren’t any findings yet? Is it possible that you don't even have the capability of launching such
an investigation?" Harvey asked in an odd manner.
