Chapter 667 Dillon Lanister 82% Finished As she spoke, she looked up at Josiah, who hadn't forgotten to grab his phone before leaving. She gestured for him to hand it over to her.
"I'm afraid we can't call the police now," said Josiah helplessly. "My phone is in my jacket pocket. You can check it out. It's probably dead because it was used as a torch for too long The already quiet path suddenly beceven quieter.
With a sense of helplessness, Lysander said, "If my memory servesright, your charger is in the car, mine is in the dormitory, and the only phone in the village is at the health center." It was truly a case of disasters upon disasters.
Upon hearing their willingness to help, Rhizone was extremely grateful and couldn't help but offer a word of caution.
"Josiah, Dr. Thome, you both are good people, but these bad guys supposedly work for a big corporation called Guerra Group. They are powerful and if they find out you're helping, they might just cafter you! When he mentioned Guerra Group, his tone was particularly disdainful.
This was Josiah's first thearing someone speak of his company in such a tone, and his expression instantly beccomplex.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLysander didn't share these concerns. With a puzzled expression, she asked, "Guerra Group? Which Guerra Group are you talking about?" "I'm not sure," Rhizone said, leading the way ahead while sharing what he knew about the situation.
"While playing in the village, I found a business card they had discarded. My sister read the words on it to me. She said they were from a big city, rich and powerful. They didn't care about our well-being at all. Their only intention was to drive us out and take over our land." When he spoke of those people's atrocious behavior, his words grew in number, clearly indicating his intense hatred for them. He even clenched his hands into fists as if he wished he could grow up instantly to drive them away.
Lysander's emotions becincredibly complex when she saw that.
"Is it... Guerra Group from Harborbrook?" she asked.
Rhizone's eyes lit up. “That's right! I remember now. They are from Harborbrook!" In Harborbrook, there was only one Guerra Group.
Josiah's heart skipped a beat as he declared firmly, "No way. They couldn't possibly be from Guerra Group. That business card is likely a fraud. Guerra Group has no plans whatsoever in this area.
As the company CEO, no one knew his business better than he did. Yet, this was the first the had heard. of this matter.
1/3 Chapter 667 Dillon Lanister Guerra Group to swindle others?" Finished Josiah responded in a voice only the two could hear, "I can only say that there's a possibility. We need to investigate further to know the specifics. However, I can assure you, Guerra Group would never engage forced buying and selling, and my subordinates wouldn't dare to defy my orders behind my back." in I'm virtually one with my company, with exceptional unity throughout. Even if someone had nerves of steel, they likely wouldn't dare to act recklessly in public in the nof the CEO. What's the difference between this and seeking death? Rhizone wasn't as quick-witted as his sister, walking for a long while before stopping. “Josiah, how do you know that Guerra Group didn't have such a plan? Are you acquainted with them?" he asked.
He beccurious about Josiah's identity.
Josiah was concerned that his explanation might not be clear, potentially leading to unnecessary misunderstandings. Instead of admitting his identity directly, he said, "I have a friend who works at Guerra Group, so I have sunderstanding of the situation there." Rhizone remained silent, but he had already developed a hostility toward the so-called friend mentioned by Josiah After a while, he said, "These people would show up now and then. Once, I happened to be fishing amongst the lotus flowers when they were causing havoc by the pond and overheard one of the bad guys saying his boss was the father-in-law of the big boss of Guerra Group, more influential than that big boss. himself. The big boss seemed to be called something like Mr. Guerra. When they mentioned him, they said this old man had a formidable son-in-law, so no one dared to mess with him..." The situation gradually becclear.
To the outside world, Josiah had two former fathers-in-law. The first wife was overly enigmatic, with no information about who her father was. As for the second, he was none other than Dillon Lanister of Riveron Corporation.
The company had always desired to venture into the upscale residential business but was hindered by a lack of connections.
With so many clues coming together, there was hardly any room for other possibilities.
In a moment of shared understanding, Lysander and Josiah thought of the sperson. She lifted her gaze intending to confirm his thoughts, only to meet his gaze that held the smeaning- The two found their perspectives unexpectedly aligning..
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJosiah struggled to recall the last the shared the sthoughts with Lysander.
At that moment, he was on the verge of thanking Dillon for his foolishness. Had the man been smart, he wouldn't have revealed his identity so blatantly.
To verify the specifics, Josiah pondered before asking Rhizone, "Is the boss of those bad guys Lanister?" surnamed Rhizone replied firmly. “Yes. They would respectfully address him as Mr. Lanister on the phone before. relaying his words to intimidate us villagers." "Did they ever do anything that left behind evidence of their wrongdoings?" Josiah asked slowly.
2/3 Wed, Chapter 667 Dillon Lanister Finished
Rhizone's eyes lit up, but only for a fleeting moment. Then, his gaze dimmed again, and he hung his head low, offering them a few words of advice in a disheartened tone. "Josiah, Dr. Thorne, are you planning to gather evidence against them? It's pointless. Every tthey cunder the pretense of persuasion, they wreak havoc in the homes near the pond. If someone happens to be out, they even smash their front doors to smithereens." No wonder their hseems so sparsely furnished. Any decent piece of furniture had probably already been destroyed by these thugs under Dillon's command "These people are utterly lawless!" Lysander despised injustice, and the mere thought of the hypocritical facade Dillon and Tiffany had displayed in public sent chills down her spine.
Despite his awareness of Dillon and Tiffany's true colors, Josiah still felt a chill upon hearing these words. He asked, "When you said it was pointless earlier, was it because someone had already tried it?"
Rhizone said dejected without turning his head, "Yes. He was the smartest guy in our village. He m returned after graduation and was furious when he found out someone was bullying everyone. He said he would find a lawyer in the village to sue them. Grandpa Blaine was very supportive of him but was too old to go with him, so he went alone." "What happened next?" Rhizone continued, "Later on, he went missing for a while. No matter how hard we searched, we couldn't find him. It wasn't until the police cto our village, inquiring about any missing persons, that he was finally brought back home." Despite not being hit by the wind, Lysander instantly felt a chill from head to toe. “I-Is he still alive?" The villagers are deeply secretive about this matter. Even though I've been helping at the health center for quite stime, it's my first thearing anyone mention it. No wonder everyone has nothing but praise for Josiah His appearance is truly a godsend for the villagers.
Josiah always prepared for the worst in advance. He never asked questions that could potentially leave psychological scars on a child. However, what Rhizone spoke of was even more terrifying than silencing someone by killing them.
"That person
had already been moved to a different location by his family. The police found him somewhere far from here, here, saying he had been wandering for a long time. He had becso demented and confused that he couldn't articulate anything clearly. Moreover, he had a broken leg beyond any hope of recovery," Rhizone replied. 1.5K
