Chapter 1947


    “Then did Old Scum do anything to him?” Hugo’s expression was as dark as thunder.


    Zn nodded. “Yes. He refused to do as told, so the client held a grudge and beat him until he lost


    consciousness before removing his kidneys. It so happened that another client of Old Scum needed


    the kidneys, so he gave them to his other client.”


    He was simmering with anger by the time he finished his words.


    Never mind if Old Scum had done that to an ordinary person. s, he ended up inviting trouble to


    their door.


    Banging his cane, Hugo felt the anger building and demanded, “Who? Come again?”


    Zn was shaking so profusely that he nearly lost his bnce. He wiped away the cold sweat on


    his brows and said in a trembling voice, “Mr. Tn, I admit that they acted recklessly. I I’ve sent my


    men to take care of the matter.”


    “Take care of the matter? How are you going to do that?” Hugo fumed. “Do you know why I never


    dreamed of expanding my power to Astoria? That’s because Sebastian Hayes is there! How dare


    you offend him? I might as well shoot you in the head right now!”


    The biggest mafia boss in Southeast Astoria shook in fury as he pulled his gun out to kill Zn.


    Hugo had never been afraid of anyone in his entire life.


    However, he never dared to get on the bad side of the president of Hayes Corporation, who was


    also the richest and most influential man in Astoria.


    Sebastian is too powerful. Hayes Corporation did exceptionally well under his helm and became


    one of the wealthiestpanies in the world. After he left his position and became a politician, he


    managed to turn the tide single-handedly. Even though he doesn’t have an official identity, everyone


    knows that he is the actual ruler of the country.


    His power and influence were simply too horrifying.


    How dare these idiots offend Sebastian?


    Bang!


    “Ah!” An ear-splitting scream resonated around the penthouse.


    If someone hadn’t shown up at the door in time to drag Zn away, he would’ve died right there and


    then.


    “Hugo, what are you doing? Zn has worked for you for years. Why do you want him dead?”


    After saving Zn, the person released him and came over to Hugo.


    Despite his fury, Hugo put his gun away at the sight of the man.


    “Why don’t you ask what he did? Sebastian Hayes’ cousin died because of his human trafficking


    business!


    Sebastian will seek revenge now that his cousin is dead,” Hugo snapped furiously.


    The neer’s expression changed drastically, for he hadn’t expected the matter to be this


    serious.


    Sebastian Hayes, huh? That man spells trouble.N?velDrama.Org (C) content.


    After the initial shock, the person calmed down and came to Hugo. He advised, “What’s done is


    done, so we should focus on solving the problem instead of starting an internal conflict. I believe


    Zn knew nothing about the human trafficking business. Besides, Tn Corporation has never


    been directly involved with it.”


    Indeed, the Tn family rarely got involved in their illegal businesses to prevent the police from


    getting dirt on them.


    There was also another reason for theirck of direct involvement. After all, these businesses were


    minor enough to be taken care of by theirckeys.


    Hearing that, Hugo finally calmed down.


    “What should we do now? I don’t know if Sebastian has received news about it. Imagine the


    consequences if he discovers the truth.”


    “Yes, that’s the most important part of the matter. For now, I suggest we deal with the police by


    handing the client to them. When the timees, and they decide to crack down on our business,


    we can sacrifice Old Scum,” the person suggested.


    He was ruthless enough to cut off all the people involved in the organ-trafficking business in order to


    protect Tn Pce.


    Hugo nodded in agreement.


    “What about Sebastian?” he asked.


    The man pondered briefly beforeing up with a wless solution. “I heard his eldest son will get


    engaged half a monthter. We can send someone to attend the engagement party and find out if


    Sebastian knows about this. If he does, we’ll prepare ourselves. If he doesn’t know a thing, we’ll


    deal with the matter and settle things with the police.”


    Zn, who was still on his knees on the floor, immediately shot the man an ecstatic look as though


    the man was his savior.


    This man was none other than Wesley Yarbrough, Tn Pce’s advisor and also Hugo’s best


    friend.


    The next morning, Rosalie woke up early to head to school.


    “Rosie, remember to be a good girl at school, stop making your father upset. I heard that you kicked


    up a fuss at the penthouse yesterday.”
