Chapter 26 âThis ingrate! Iâll teach her a lesson today!â Benjamin was trembling with anger!
It had only been a short time, and the Yates family had lost a few hundred million dollars. Benjamin thought Cassandra must have come to bring bad luck to the Yates. family.
âDad, letâs go together. Cassandra must give us an explanation for this,â said Leonardo.
He had always been the one suing others and winning the lawsuits.
Hence, he didnât expect to lose in Cassandraâs hand. He had underestimated her this time.
However, this didnât mean that she could harm the interests of the Yates family.
âYes, letâs go together. Cassandra is so unruly.â Jasper agreed.
âBut where does she live?â Yulissa suddenly asked.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Nobody knew where Cassandra lived.
She left the Yates residence long ago, but no one knew where she lived.
Moreover, no one knew where she obtained over 200 thousand dollars, which she sent to the Yates residence.
The Yates family wondered if Cassandra had h ooked up with a rich man outside.
âLisa, do you know where she lives?â Miranda asked softly.
âMom, Iâm sorry. I donât know where Cassandra lives, but when Ray was racing before, she and his opponent were together. I guess Ray knows that person,â Yulissa answered.
âTogether with Raymondâs opponent? It seems that Cassandra did have something to do with what happened to Rayâs hand. D amn it! I wish sheâs dead!â Miranda cursed inwardly.
âLetâs call Ray and ask him.â Matthew then called Raymond.
The phone was answered in seconds.
âMatt, whatâs up?â Raymond asked.
âWhoâs the person you were racing with?â Matthew asked.
11:25 Fri, 16 Feb M Chapter 26 âJeremiah, whatâs the matter?â Raymond spoke of Jeremiah with hatred.
âDo you know where he lives? We need to find Cassandra, but we donât know where she stays. Perhaps he knows her whereabouts.â
âJeremiah is from Whitecrane Hall. You can only look for him in Whitecrane Hall. I donât know where he lives,â said Raymond.
He sent someone for an investigation and obtained this piece of information after he lost the first game against Jeremiah.
He only knew Jeremiah was from Whitecrane Hall, but no one knew his true identity.
After hanging up the phone, Matthew was stunned for a moment.
Even though he didnât know Jeremiahâs identity, he was aware of the significance and reputation associated with Whitecrane Hall.
He couldnât believe Cassandra had a relationship with someone from Whitecrane Hall.
Jasperâs expression turned grim when he heard Jeremiahâs name.
Jeremiah held a pivotal role in Whitecrane Hall. While much of the collaboration only involved Hugo, Jeremiah was the one who made the final decisions. He only made appearances when contracts were officially signed.
The hospital Jasper worked at collaborated with Whitecrane Hall before to purchase the medicinal materials. Unexpectedly, somehow, the cooperation was terminated in advance a few days ago.
âThen letâs go to Whitecrane Hall. Benjamin decided immediately.
Meanwhile, at Whitecrane Hall, concern was evident on Hugoâs face.
âJeremiah, has Boss returned home yet?â Hugo asked.
It was inevitable that he felt worried, as it was the court session today.
âOf course. Jonathan sent her home,â Jeremiah said casually.
The receptionist lady, Scarlett Anderson, came in suddenly.
âMr. Lawson, someone wants to see you outside,â she said.
Jeremiah raised his eyebrows and asked, âWho is it?â
âBenjamin, the chairman of Yates Group.â
This was how the visitor introduced himself.
Chapter 26 Jeremiahâs face instantly darkened. He didnât expect these people to come to him.
âInteresting, he thought.
Jeremiah decided to avenge the grievances Cassandra had suffered against them.
âTake them to the reception room. Iâll be there in a moment.â
Fifteen minutes later, the Yates family was sitting impatiently in the reception room.
Benjamin and Leonardo were wearing stern expressions.
No one had ever made them wait that long. They were getting angrier with each passing minute.
âEveryone, thank you for waiting.â
Jeremiah pushed open the door and entered the room, followed by Hugo. Despite thanking the Yates family for waiting, he carried himself with perfect ease and showed no sign of remorse.
Yulissa was shocked to see them, especially Hugo!
This was the old man who picked up Cassandra at the gate of the school before. She didnât expect him to be someone from Whitecrane Hall.
âNo wonder that woman is so arrogant. It turns out she has h ooked up with someone from Whitecrane Hall, she thought.
Yulissa perceived Hugo as some sort of butler..
She couldnât comprehend why Cassandra seemed to feel superior by having a relationship with him.
Jasper recognized Hugo, so there was a touch of respect on his face.
âWhat can I do for you?â Jeremiah spoke casually in an alienated tone.
âMr. Lawson, may I know where my daughter is?â Benjamin didnât beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
He didnât appear to believe that Jeremiah possessed significant capabilities.
He addressed Jeremiah as Mr. Lawson merely out of politeness.
Jeremiah snorted ruthlessly. âMr. Benjamin Yates, are you kidding? Isnât your daughter sitting next to you? Who do you want from me?â
Benjamin glanced at Yulissa with doting eyes.
11:25 Fri, 16 Feb Mu.
Chapter 26 In Jeremiahâs view, this scene was extremely ironic.
âIâm talking about Cassandra. Where is she?â Benjamin said bluntly.
âMr. Yates, if your daughter is missing, go find her yourself. Why come here and ask me? Iâm not a police officer, so I canât help you.â Jeremiah leaned back, his eyes carrying a hint of sarcasm.
âMy son saw you with her. Ask her to come out and see me,â Benjamin snapped.
It seemed as though Jeremiah chose to do it the hard way.
âDad, I saw Cassandra with the mister opposite me at the gate of the school. He went to pick her up.â Yulissa whispered, but everyone heard it.
Hugoâs face darkened as he cursed the bunch of people before him silently. How dare they scandalize Cassandra in front of him?
âYou dare question Boss? She owns the whole of Whitecrane Hall!â
you think âWell, old man, how dare you keep my daughter as your mistress? Who des you are? Know your place!â Hearing this, Miranda couldnât sit still. She abruptly stood up and pointed at Hugoâs nose, cursing.
âDonât talk nonsense, young lady.â Hugo glanced at Yulissa and then Miranda, saying, âMrs. Yates, youâd better put your fingers down. I have never seen a mother claim her daughter being kept as a mistress without any evidence. This is ridiculous. Iâm older than your husband. Is it appropriate for you to say that?â Hugo said with a gloomy face.
âWho are you to scold me? Iâm telling you, give me my daughter immediately, and let us take her away!â Miranda looked like a shrew at that moment.
Despite being elegantly dressed, she was rudely behaved.
âMom, stop talking.â Jasper stopped Miranda.
Miranda didnât know who Hugo was, but he did.
Hugo could be regarded as Fayeâs assistant, and one could only get to Faye through Hugo. Besides, Hugo was also the nominal general manager of Whitecrane Hall.
Such a status was more noble than that of Benjaminâs.
And now, his mother was pointing her finger at Hugo and cursing him.
âMr. Gardner, my mother is quite straightforward. Please donât take her words to heart. We just came to pick up my sister Cassandra. We didnât mean anything else.â
475 11:25 Fri, 16 Feb Mu Chapter 26 Jasper didnât care about Cassandra being kept as a mistress. Even if Hugo did keep Cassandra, the Yates family couldnât afford to take any action against him.
âDr. Yates, Iâve seen you before.â Hugo greeted Jasper politely. âIâm confused. Why do you think the daughter of the Yates family is here?â
