Chapter 688: That’s why they say Adrian Zhekova is a dog.

So, Edward Lopez was dragged to the company by Mrs. Lopez.

Richard Lopez was busy in his office, teetering on the verge of a meltdown, planning to visit the Pingla Group personally if he couldn’t reach Adrian Zhekova.

Adrian Zhekova should be at the Pingla Group, right?

Going to Pingla Group to beg Adrian Zhekova might be embarrassing, but it’s better than letting the company collapse.

Just as he was planning, Mrs. Lopez brought Edward Lopez into the office.

Richard Lopez was puzzled, “Why are you two here at this time? The company is so busy, we don’t have time for you. Don’t come to make trouble.”

Richard Lopez was annoyed.

The company’s losses were not substantial at this point, but what scared Richard Lopez most was that the company had caught the attention of Adrian Zhekova. No one knew what Adrian Zhekova might do next.

Would he merely impose minor penalties, causing little damage and then let it go? Or would he, like a mad dog, persistently pursue his vendetta?

Richard Lopez feared the second scenario because Adrian Zhekova was ruthless!

No one who had crossed Adrian Zhekova had gotten away lightly. They were all heavily punished.

Otherwise, Adrian Zhekova’s vengeful temperament wouldn’t be so famous within the industry.

Mrs. Lopez was also a bit frightened by Richard Lopez’s temper, but she had to speak up considering the severity of the situation.

Mrs. Lopez plucked up the courage and said, “We know why Adrian Zhekova is hostile to our company.”

Richard Lopez was surprised, “You know why?”

Mrs. Lopez pulled Edward Lopez over irritably: “You, tell him!”

Mrs. Lopez didn’t ask Edward Lopez for details, since she had to explain it to Richard Lopez anyway, hence she didn’t let Edward Lopez elaborate on the way.

She just waited for him to explain everything to his father later.

“What happened?” Richard Lopez glared at Edward Lopez, “Did you cause this trouble?”

Seeing that Edward was silent, Mrs. Lopez couldn’t bear it: “Why are you silent now? Weren’t you very capable when you were outside?”

Mrs. Lopez simply turned to Richard Lopez and said, “He offended Adrian Zhekova’s wife. He saw that she was pretty without realizing she was Adrian Zhekova’s wife and tried to approach her, but ended up kicking an iron plate. I don’t know the specifics. I thought he would explain it once he got here, and avoid repeating it.”

Upon hearing this, Richard Lopez didn’t wait for a detailed explanation from Edward Lopez. He immediately slapped him, “You’re such a disgrace! You never help with the family affairs, but you’re always good at wreaking havoc!”

Edward didn’t dare to retort, he just silently held his cheek.

Pointing at Edward Lopez’s nose, Richard Lopez demanded, “You’d better confess everything now! Are you waiting for our company to go bankrupt? I wonder how you’d keep your face as a young master then!”

Edward had no choice but to tell what happened at the banquet that night.

Richard Lopez was furious when he heard everything, trembling with rage, “It’s been so many days, and you didn’t say a word!”

“I… I heard that Adrian Zhekova is vengeful, but he sometimes settles scores on the spot. He already taught me a lesson that night. He can’t be holding a grudge, right?”

Richard Lopez sneered, “If he always settles scores on the spot, why would he hold grudges? He holds grudges when he feels that the initial punishment wasn’t enough, and he wants to continue!”

This was why Adrian Zhekova was such a devil!

“You idiot, something this huge happened and you didn’t tell us right away. Instead, you held onto some naive hope. Now you’ve brought disaster to our family!” Richard Lopez roared angrily.
