Chapter 130 After Steve left, Chris' face darkened ominously.
Kevin glanced at Chris, opened his mouth, but found himself at a loss for words.
Fred had been obviously furious when he left just now.
And for good reason! Now, with the Lucano Group's ore almost their sole alternative source, that path had been irrevocably blocked.
The Ashford Group was on the brink of disaster.
Chris closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and hissed a name. "Stephanie!" He was not expecting that the heir of the Lucano Group would protect her.
Hearing his tone, Kevin felt a jolt.
Steve's words had clearly implied that all of this was somehow connected to Stephanie.
After a moment of contemplation, Kevin decided to remind Chris.
"The Hart Group is also in big trouble now, supposedly related to Skyriver Travel." Upon hearing this, Chris turned his head slightly and glanced at Kevin.
"Skyriver Travel?" 93% +13 "The company that made Miss Giovanni a few million," Kevin explained.
Last year, Stephanie's incof seven million included over six million from Skyriver Travel.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer actual collaborations outside were only worth a few hundred thousand, a normal profit for an ordinary studio.
But working with Skyriver Travel, her stusoared to the top in Long Harbor.
Recalling how they had tried to blacklist Stephanie's stuand even called Skyriver Travel, only to be scolded by the other party.
That arrogant attitude still darkened Chris' face whenever he thought about it.
He sneered, "It has something to do with Stephanie, right?" Kevin lowered his head silently. Clearly, this matter was related to her.
"Who is the boss of Skyriver Travel?" asked Chris.
"Job Hogg, a foreigner." Chris froze for a moment. No wonder he didn't understand the local situations in Long Harbor and dared to openly support Stephanie.
A trace of annoyance flashed through his eyes, and his voice deepened, "I underestimated Stephanie. I really underestimated her!" After a moment of contemplation, Chris ordered in a deep voice, “Find out more about this man and see what his 1/4 < 93% Chapter 130 relationship with Stephanie is Ridiculous. Recently, no matter which event, everything seemed to circle back to Stephanie. It was simply maddening He mused in his mind.
Kevin nodded, "Okay" He paused for a moment, then cautiously asked, “So... Did the Old Mr. Ashford just meet Mr. Lucano?" At the mention of this, Chris face darkened even more.
"Whispering Bay belongs to the Lucano family." Kevin's pupils shrank in surprise, "What? You mean, Miss Giovanni has been getting close to someone from the Lucano family recently?" Chris' expression was terrifyingly gloomy. "All right, never mind.” The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became. 'Why was Stephanie involved in everything? Was she a social butterfly who could connect with anyone?' Seeing Chris' expression, Kevin dared not ask further. But inside, he was still in shock.
The Lucano family were a top-tier aristocratic family.
If Stephanie related to the Lucano family, it would not be surprising that she had something to do with Skyriver Travel.
As Chris turned, his phone buzzed again. This twas a message from Fred.
[Try harder with the Lucano Group.] He didn't even bother to call.
Clearly, Fred was annoyed.
After all, in Long Harbor, there were few things Fred couldn't handle personally.
But this matter was just so thorny.
Chris was equally annoyed to see the message.
He replied with two words. [Got it!] [We suffered serious losses. If we don't have a remedy in time...] Fred probably didn't know how to describe the gravity of the situation, so he left it there.
But Chris also understood the stakes involved.
He replied. [Understood.] He knew, but the real problem was how to deal with it—a huge trouble.
At the hospital, when Olivia saw Chris' one-word reply, "Yes," she felt totally drained.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed he'd respond like that.

Sure enough, the needle was still in his band Macro said hopelessly, “I haven't even warted, and you're already in past Tell your brother deady, I don't want to take the blame" If he really hurt Stephanie, Sebastian's kick would probably send him fiying, And he would be blamed for his poor acupuncture skills.
That would be a real injustice.

I'm checking where it would be most effective? "Then find it! Just hold the needle away from met She was terrified of needles, and now having to watch one hovering above her knee was unbearable.
"Fine. Don't scream. It won't hurt." "Waaahhhh!" Sebastian sighed, "Alright, stop screaming. It's done Stephanie blinked, "Huh? Done?" She didn't feel any pain yet.
She glanced at Macro, only to see him already picking up the second was exactly why she had needle. This been so reluctant to undergo acupuncture. If it was an IV, at least it would only be one shot. At most two if counting the blood draw. But acupuncture needed countless shots! Although she hadn't felt pain from the first needle, Stephanie still couldn't help but be afraid.
"Don't be afraid, close your eyes." Sebastian's warm palm gently covered her eyes, then tilted her head and pressed her into his embrace.

Sebastian's voice was gentle, "It'll be over soon. Marco has already inserted several needles." This was supposed to be a comforting remark, but upon hearing it, Stephanie shuddered in fear.
"Stop struggling!" Macro said.
Usually so bold that she dared to fight with men, and now she was this scared? At that moment, Elliot walked in and whispered, "Mr. Giovanni." Sebastian glanced up slightly. "All done?" 93%1 Elliot nodded. "Yes. Jackson is a straight forward partner. He said he would make changes as soon as there was any problem." Upon hearing this, Stephanie couldn't help but glance at Sebastian. "You just met Fred. What's going on?" Although she hadn't gone to watch, she was still curious about Chris' feelings.
Sebastian understood her meaning and pinched her ear, his voice tinged with amusement. "Chris probably looking for a way out right now." "A way out? Looking for me?" asked Stephanie, puzzled.
Now that Chris knows that Sebastian is the heir to the Lucano family and the owner of Whispering Bay, he must realize how badly he had offended Sebastian. She blinked and continued, "So Fred knows about the grudge between you and Chris?" Sebastian replied indifferently, "As a father, he must know what his son has been up to." Stephanie was silent for a moment.
Now Fred must be frantic, pressuring Chris to resolve the situation.
