Betrayal At The Altar By Dolores Delia Chapter 644 In just an hour, the news of the Cruise Group being seized and Richard and Olivia being taken away for investigation and interrogation overwhelmed the Internet.
Mrs. Smith was drinking coffee with the other madams in the afternoon. The butler rushed to her side. âMrs. Smith!â
âWhatâs wrong?â Mrs. Smith looked at the butler who suddenly barged in with a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
The butler pursed her lips and glanced at the other madams around Mrs. Smith.
Seeing that she was hesitating, Mrs. Smith patiently greeted the other madams and followed the butler to a quiet corner. âTell me. What happened?â
Ever since Jane was sent overseas, she had been slacking off It was also possible that she was embarrassed enough and slowly stopped taking it to heart.
The butler sized up the expression on Mrs. Smithâs face. After hesitating for a while, she said carefully, âThe Cruise Group has been closed down. Richard and Olivia have been taken away for investigation. Itâs now a hot topic on the Internet.â
âWhat did you say?â Mrs. Smithâs voice suddenly rose.
She frowned hard and her eyes were filled with disbelief. âAre you mistaken? No matter what, the Cruise fantily has Marinaâs support. How can it be...â
âMrs. Smith, itâs absolutely true!â The butler was afraid that Mrs. Smith would not believe her. She handed the phone to Mrs.
Smith. âTake a good look at it yourself.â
The scandal of the Cruise Group was all over the Internet.
Tax evasion, power sex trade, and smuggling trade caught Mrs. Smithâs eye and made her mind All of these were not trivial matters. The Cruise family was doomed this time!
âWhatâs going on?â Mrs. Smithâs face gradually turned pale.
go blank.
Yesterday, Olivia had come to see her with black truffles that had just been delivered from overseas. How could the Cruise family be finished overnight?
The butler said, âIsnât that so? It was fine yesterday, but it became like this overnight. I wonder how Mr. Louis is doing.â
Hearing this, Mrs. Smithâs heart sk ip ped a beat. Her fingertips trembled as she dialed Louisâs number.
At this moment, Louis was watching the report on the television in his office.
It happened to be the scene of the villa the Cruise family being sealed, and Richard and Olivia being taken away for investigation.
His handsome face was cold as if a layer of ice had condensed on it. His eyes were filled with cold hostility.
The assistant standing at the side was so frightened that he did not even dare to breathe.
When Louisâs phone suddenly rang, Louis saw that it was a call from Mrs. Smith. He hesitated for a moment before answering the call.
âSon, something happened to the Cruise family. Olivia has been taken away!â
âI saw it,â Louis said indifferently.
Compared to his calmness, Mrs. Smith was panicking on the other end of the phone. She was even desperate. âThe Cruise family has been ruined. Will our family be implicated? Will Olivia take the opportunity to get us involved? What should we do now? We have to think of a way to do something, right?â
âThe Cruise familyâs matter doesnât involve the Smith family.â Louis picked up the remote control and turned off the television:
After lighting a cigarette, he turned around and walked to the French window. âIâll call the police station to ask. Letâs find out first.â
âOkay.â
After hanging up, Louis called his friend at the police station.
He thought that even if he couldnât get any valuable clues, he could at least get some information.
However, he did not expect his friend to not answer the call.
This attitude also meant that the Cruise familyâs matter was no small matter. Anyone involved in it would not be able to escape.
Louisâs expression was cold as he smoked silently.
The assistant standing at the side secretly sized up the expression on his face. After hesitating for a long time, the assistant mustered his courage and said cautiously. âMr. Smith, the directors are waiting for your in the conference room...â
Ever since the Cruise family was closed down and Olivia was taken away for investigation, the directors seemed to have discussed it and all rushed to the meeting room.
After all, not long ago, the news of Olivia and Louisâs engagement was still being widely reported online. In the blink of an eye, something happened to Olivia. Not to mention the directors, even the entire company was in a state of panic.
Louis remained silent, silently smoking the cigarette in his hand.
At this moment, the office door was pushed open.
Harrison walked in from outside. âLouis, did you get the information?â
Louis put out the cigarette in his hand and responded indifferently.
âThen youâve also heard that Richard hired someone to kill Rachel, right?â Harrison asked.
Louis frowned. âDid Richard hire someone to kill Rachel?â
âWhat? Donât you know this?â Harrison looked at the expression on Louisâs face. After pondering for half a second, he told Louis everything he had found out.
âIf you didnât provoke Rachel, why do you think the Cruise family suddenly became like this? Do know what kind of big shots are surrounding Rachel now?â Harrison asked again.
you How could Louis not know about the group of big shots surrounding Rachel?
Seeing that he was silent, Harrison continued, âI heard that not only did the three people from the Johnson family but also Warren helped Rachel. In short, the Cruise family lost this time. Weâll take it as a lesson learned. From now on, you have to be politer when you see Rachel...â
Harrison paused for a moment and patted Louisâs shoulder. He said earnestly, âI think you need to reconsider your marriage with Olivia.â
With that, Harrison turned around and left.
Louis sat on the sofa in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
In the Grey family, Pollister.
âThe tides have changed. A while ago, we were humble in front of the Cruise family.â When Hans saw the report online, he sighed, but he couldnât help but sneer in his heart.
Back then, Olivia used Lily to deal with Rachel. In the end, the Grey family suffered a loss and did not get any benefits.
Now that Olivia had gone bankrupt, he had vented his anger.
Seeing Olivia being taken away for investigation, Lily felt much better. âDad, I heard that this matter seems to have something to do with Rachel. It seems that the Cruise family wanted to deal with her, so the Cruise family ended up like this.â
Hansâs pupils constricted when he heard this. âDo you mean that the Cruise familyâs current fate is all because of Rachel?â
âThatâs right.â Lily said unhurriedly, âThink about it. Itâs not that the Cruise family didnât have a scandal before, but in the end, it was left unsettled. But this time, all the evidence is laid out. It is obvious that they want to ruin the Cruise family. Donât forget, Olivia stole Rachelâs fiance. With Rachelâs temper, she wonât let it go.
âMoreover, I heard from Olivia that the reason why Rachel is living a rich life in Seaxas is because of the man around her.â
Hansâs eyes narrowed slightly, and his turbid eyes flickered with a scheming glint. âI didnât expect Rachel to be so capable!â
