Chapter 972 Have You Really Thought About It?


    Chapter 972 Have you really thought about it?


    Selena grabbed Osvaldo''s hand and smiled, "I''m fine."


    Daphne only makes her feel angry and sad, but not to that extent.


    Osvaldo rubbed her forehead and asked, "Do you want to rest this afternoon?"


    Selena tilted her head and thought for a moment.


    She was originally nning to visit Mna in the afternoon.


    But Osvaldo never interferes with any of her actions, and his treatment of her can be described as


    When the man suddenly made a request, it seemed that it was because she had been poisoned and


    needed to recuperate.


    It seemed impossible to refuse.


    So Selena smiled and said, "Okay."


    Osvaldo held her hand and walked out.


    Selena turned back to Leia, who was hiding behind the stairs and peeking with her big eyes covered,


    and said, "Bring Hattie with us."


    The little girl was sick, and Selena was worried about leaving her alone in the Turner family.


    Leia immediately went upstairs to pick up Hattie.


    ...


    That afternoon, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and the Taxation Bureau suddenly intervened in


    the investigation of the Riddle''s finances under the pretext of investigation.


    Many of the Riddle''s projects were forced to shut down.


    To make matters worse, the Riddle''swork suddenly suffered a major virus attack, causing the entire


    inte industry to copse overnight and be inoperable.


    Economic empires like the Riddle''s, with intertwined roots, are all affected when the mainpany is in


    trouble, and its other industries are instantly affected.


    Such a disastrous blow, even if it was just for one day or even just one hour, the losses for the entire


    the Riddle''s cannot be estimated.


    For a time, the whole the Riddle''s was in turmoil.

    Many of the capital''s aristocratic families were also in an uproar.


    Everyone knew that this was the Anderson family and the Turner family retaliating against the Riddle


    family for Selena, and they were gloating while secretly fearing.


    Even the former Riddle family of the four major families couldn''t resist the joint revenge of the


    Anderson family and the Turner family, so what would happen if they were targeted by other families?


    Compared to the leaders of the major families who are watching the situation, the daughters and wives


    of the major families are mostly jealous. Selena felt aggrieved. The Turner family and the Anderson


    family went to great lengths to help her, and this honor was absolutely unique in the entire capital!


    While they gritted their teeth with envy, they also thought Daphne was really foolish. She implicated the


    entire Riddle family just for an adopted daughter...


    The Riddle family. Hunter paced anxiously in the hall, his face full of anger. Although the Riddle family


    hadn''t fallen apart yet, it was inevitable that there would be losses, especially in his industries.


    The other members of the Riddle family also sat with grim faces. Angus walked in from outside with a


    dark look on his face. "Master David, we haven''t found Miss Hattie."


    Hattie was with Selena, guarded by Osvaldo. Even though Hunter was Hattie''s father, they couldn''t just


    barge in and demand her return.


    "Unfilial daughter!" Hunter''s face turned pale.


    Issac nced at him with a hint of coldness in his eyes. "David, don''t you know that Hattie was beaten


    by her mother and is now in the hospital unconscious?"


    Hunter''s face changed, and his brow furrowed. "I just wanted her to say a few words. Can''t she just


    wake up?"


    Leon''s face turned cold when he heard this. "Enough! Uncle David, you should be grateful to Hattie. If it


    weren''t for her blocking Grandmother''s p, Lady Selena would have been hit and the situation of the


    Riddle family would be even worse than it is now!"


    "And why are you looking for Hattie for such a big matter? Do you want her to plead for the Riddle


    family?" Leon sneered. "Believe me, if you do that, whether your other daughter can see the sun


    tomorrow is an unknown variable."


    Hunter was humiliated by the father and son''s mockery and his face turned white. "What should we do


    then? That unfilial daughter always talks about how Selena saved her and was good to her. Now that


    the Riddle family is in trouble, why can''t she go and plead for them?"


    "Don''t forget, even if Selena can clear her rtionship with the Riddle family, she can forget about


    having a good life!" Issac coldly sneered. "David, I think you''ve really gone mad!"


    Leon shifted his gaze away, toozy to speak again. Hunter''s face was almost distorted with anger at


    the father and son''s stubbornness.


    The other shareholders of the Riddle family didn''t say anything, but the disapproving look in their eyes


    towards Hunter was unmistakable. What kind of person could be so cruel to his own daughter? The


    Riddle family was fortunate that their future wouldn''t fall into his hands. Although they looked down on


    Hunter, they still needed to address the matter at hand. One shareholder looked towards Leon and


    said, "Young Master, now is not the time to be prideful. We need a solution for the Turner and Anderson


    families."


    Leon tapped his slender fingers on the table and smirked, "A solution... hasn''t it always been there?"


    The people in the room were initially stunned, but then they suddenly understood what Leon meant.


    The reason why the Turner and Anderson families targeted the Riddle family was because Daphne


    openly bullied the youngdy from the Turner family. The conflict caused by Daphne naturally needed


    her to step up and resolve it. It was obvious that the Turner and Anderson families wanted Daphne to


    apologize to Selena in person.


    Once they realized Leon''s n, he stood up, put on his coat, and casually buttoned it up. He then


    addressed Issac, "Father, I''ll be relying on you for the next few days." Issac, who anticipated the chaos


    that would ur in the Riddle family, waved his hand, allowing his son to leave quickly.


    As the grandson, Leon could hide, but as the son, he had no room to do so. Leon smiled and walked


    out of the room, where he saw Erica waiting for him outside the front door. Erica walked over and


    helped her son adjust his cor. "I told you before that I wanted to meet Miss Turner... what did she


    say?"


    Leon stared into his mother''s eyes and suddenly asked, "Do you have something to say to her?"


    Erica''s eyes seemed to be clouded by something as she spoke tly, "I don''t know if it''s right or wrong


    to say it, but... that child has the right to know."


    Leon''s eyes turned cold as he asked, "Is it rted to Aunt Nevaeh?" Erica didn''t deny it. Leon''s heart


    sank bit as he stared into her eyes and asked, "Mother, have you really thought this through?" Erica


    smiled and said, "Maybe what I''m doing is bit rebellious as a daughter-inw, but Leon, remember,


    before having this identity, your mother was a police officer!" Leon remembered her brave deeds when


    she was younger and smiled, hugging his mother before leaving.
