Chapter 99
On the second day, while Andrius was still asleep, hurried knocks on his door woke him up.
“Andrius! Wake up! Open the door! Something happened! Wake up!”
Andrius opened the door and saw Halle.
“What? What happened?” He could barely open his eyes.
“Sumeria…is messed up!” Halle looked serious as if the sky of Sumeria had collapsed.
Andrius yawned. “Is it that serious?”
“It is. It’s as you said the other day.” Halle looked at Andrius with a complicated look on her face. “Last night, Axel Cloverfield and his father, Richard, transferred everything under their company’s name out from the country. A total of fifteen billion assets have disappeared just like that!
“The company is just empty now. The shareholders, the people who bought their shares recently, everyone went crazy. From the moment the news got out, which was just an hour ago, there have already been more than a dozen suicide cases.”
Then, Halle’s phone rang.
“Tsk. Another one down the drain. Someone just jumped off a building.” Halle shook her head as she looked at her phone. “The police are involved, but that b*stard Axel is already gone.”
Andrius did not care because it was not his money that Axel ran off with. He looked at Halle and asked, “What about the Crestfalls? How’s Luna doing?”Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
If Andrius remembered correctly, when he was chased out of Luna’s car yesterday, she still had a lot of the Cloverfields’ shares.
“Luna…” Halle sighed and shook her head. She looked helpless as she said, “She used all of New Moon Corporation’s funds to buy the Cloverfields‘ company shares, and I failed to stop her.
“Now, everything is gone. The company is already short on funds, and now with this happening, the Crestfalls are going bankrupt. The whole family is already at Luna’s house, asking her to compensate for their losses.”
What a stupid woman.
Andrius did not know how to comment on Luna’s stupidity anymore, but he could not just leave her. “Come on, let’s go have a look.”
Meanwhile at Dream’s Waterfront, George, Dick, and Master Crestfall, plus the young
ones, were all in front of Luna’s gate.
“Luna, don’t blame your uncle for being cold–hearted.” George looked frosty. He added, “You started all these, you can’t just make both of our families pay for your mistake!”
“Yeah!” Dick stepped forward and bellowed, “Luna, you have to compensate for the company’s losses and relieve yourself of your duty!”
When it came to their personal gans, not even family could hold them back.
“Compensate!”
“Resign!”
The others echoed in unison.
When Luna heard Axel and his father had fled with her money, she lost it. Her mind went blank, and she did not know what to do.
She was drowning in regret already, and now she had to face criticism and blame from her uncles. She had no excuse for her actions. Her eyes turned wet as tears blurred her vision.
Harry was also anxious.
Aside from the debts and liabilities, this investment alone involved a large portion of their funds and was a major problem.
On top of that, the Valiant Institute project was waiting for their funds to start, and with their money gone, the project might have to be delayed indefinitely.
How could they face Mayor Freely after this?
Things went from bad to worse in quick succession.
Harry’s expression shifted multiple times. He gritted his teeth and said, “Calm down first. It’s not beyond redemption. I’ll give Axel a call.”
