Chapter 1664


    Daniel presented the loan documents, bearing Graham''s unmistakable signatures, which seemed to


    taunt his


    ignorance.


    "I believe we can resolve this matter in the following manner," proposed Fat Lawler. "Daniel, promptly


    transfer the


    funds to Mr. Bayer''s ount and repurchase the two mines.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    "As for Mr. Bayer, it''s only fair to settle your debts. Daniel has shown considerable generosity, and we


    trust you


    won''t resort to dishonesty. After all, dishonesty doesn''t align with the Bayer family''s values, does it?"


    Graham remained speechless, overwhelmed by regret and frustration.


    "Speaking of the Bayers," Daniel began with a faint smile. "I''ve brought someone today that you may


    wish to see,


    Mr. Bayer."


    With a p of his hands, the private room''s door swung open, revealing Arya''s entrance.


    Graham''s initial surprise quickly turned into worry and anxiety. He rushed forward, urgently asking,


    "Arya, are you


    okay?"


    "I''m fine," Arya replied, her eyes slightly red. Although only a few days had passed since shest saw


    her family, it


    felt like an eternity.


    Upon noticing Sophia, Arya''s eyes filled with hatred as she pointed at her, teeth clenched. "Graham! It''s


    this woman


    who had someone harm me!"


    "What?!" Graham eximed, taken aback.


    Sophia snapped out of her shock and rushed to Graham''s side to defend herself. "I didn''t do anything!


    It wasn''t me!


    "Arya, speak the truth! In these past few days, I''ve been searching tirelessly for news of you... I—"


    "Stop lying!" Arya cried, her voice strained. "It was clearly you who had someone knock me out, and it


    was you who


    took everything from me! Are you still going to deny it, Sophia? Right now, your main goal is to get your


    hands on


    thepany seals of the Bayer and Tanner Groups, isn''t it?"


    "You..."


    "Unfortunately, I was prepared. I didn''t carry the seals with me! So it''s useless, even with those


    documents!"


    Sophia gnashed her teeth and red at Arya venomously.


    Graham felt dazed, struggling to believe what he was hearing.


    Daniel asserted sternly, "Mr. Bayer, I have evidence if you have doubts." A screen descended slowly


    from the


    opposite wall, and with a simple nod from Daniel, his men yed surveince footage from that night. It


    revealed a


    dark alley, Arya''s cries, and the menacing faces of those who had taken her backpack.


    Sophia panicked, her legs giving way beneath her.


    Daniel sneered. "And if the evidence isn''t enough, I also have a witness."


    He pped his hands, summoning a man from outside who bowed respectfully to Daniel before cing


    a stack of


    money on the table. It was the money Sophia had given him to erase the video.


    Daniel said coldly, looking at her, "Unfortunately, the street''s surveince cameras didn''t fail as you


    hoped, and the


    person you hired was actually working for me!"


    A heavy silence filled the room, and the tension hung in the air.


    Graham remained stunned for a long while. When he finallyprehended the situation, he leered at


    Sophia.


    "It was you? You kidnapped my sister and had people harm her? So everything was because of you?!"


    he roared,


    his ipetence fueling his anger.


    Suddenly, he seized Sophia by the throat, veins bulging on his forehead. "I''ve treated you so well! How


    could you do


    this? Why did you do this?!"
