Chapter 154 Adding Insult to Injury
Caspian’s act of barging into the Embassy of Tigra to capture Zachary in the past had caused both count
ries to be on bad terms.
Many protests arose from Tigra over this vition, but they did not dare wage war with Diatoran. For this
reason, they chose to start a business war instead. They then deployed their
elite teams here.
Tigra only had one goal, and it was to tear up Diatoran from the inside.
Someone from Glorious Group had contacted Carl from Stewart Group.
They had proposed a lucrative offer in hopes of cooperating with them.
This matter had gotten the attention of the entire Stewart family.
Marilyn immediately called for a meeting.
“What are everyone’s thoughts on the cooperation with Glorious Group?” Marilyn asked.
“There’s no need to think about it. I’m all for it. Thatpany had already caused a stir
in the business world when they’d only been in Soutke City for a short while.
“Manypanies had terminated their contracts with Soutke Corporation and approached Glorious G
roup. Their profit margin is the highest in town!” Donald said, unable to contain his excitement.
It would be a really great opportunity for Stewart Group if they could work together with Glorious Group.
“Terminate all cooperations with Soutke Corporation right away, even if it means we have to pay for th
e breach of contract. This is our chance!” Marilyn said.
“Mom, will this be fine? It was us who begged Willow for a project in the beginning. Now you’re saying w
e should just end it…” Carl said, in a dilemma.
“Carl, what is business all about? The maximization of profits. Now that this grand.
opportunity is lying right in front of us, we ought to grab onto it!” Donald said.
“Yes, I’m sure the conditions offered by Glorious Group are tempting, but just think about it.
“Compared to the long–
established Soutke Corporation, Glorious Group’s just started out. There’s just too much uncertainty a
t this point!” Carl argued.
“That’s enough. I’ve already made my decision. End the cooperation with Soutke.
Corporation. I’ll personally contact Willow about this,” Marilyn said. She had already made up
her mind.
At the same time, she nned to organize a family dinner and invite both Willow and Caspian over. She
wanted to let them know about this matter.
At Soutke Corporation, Willow was drowning inpany matters when she received at phone call fro
m her father.
“Willow, there’s a family dinner tonight. Your grandmother would like you toe back for a visit. She ha
s something to tell you,” Carl said.
“Dad, can we just discuss it on the phone? I’m really busy,” Willow said,
“This is a really big matter. I think you shoulde back. Bring Caspian along,” he said.
He did not know how to tell her that the family wanted to end their cooperation with Soutke Corporatio
n.
Willow gave Caspian a call.
“What’s the matter, Willow?”
Caspian was currently at the hospital.

Avon was helping him treat his gun wound.
“There’s a family dinner at Stewart Residence tonight. My grandmother told me to bring you,
“Willow said.
“Sure. I’ll pick you up after work,” Caspian said.
He agreed to go as he did not have any urgent matters to attend to. Dealing with Glorious Group was not
something that could be resolved overnight as well.
Caspian hung up the phone.
“Caspian, your leg’s fine. Don’t do strenuous activities. Remember to apply medicine on time, and you sh
ould be able to recover in a few days,” Avon said.
“Got it.” Caspian nodded his head.
During this period of time, Lana and Elias also had their injuries treated by Avon. The two had almost full
y recovered..
Both of them were really grateful to Caspian.
They thought they would never be able to stand on their two feet again. Thankfully, the doctor that Caspi
an hired was highly skilled. Their treatment took roughly a week for them to be able to stand up again.
It was at this time that Joey came to the hospital.
“Caspian, what a coincidence! Joey hade to the hospital to look for Lana. She was surprised to see
Caspian there.
“I got shot and received my treatment here. What brought you here?” Caspian was also surprised to find
Joey there.
Jory was the Inspector General, so naturally, she would not have so much free time on her hands to be a
t ces.
“I came to look for Stephanie to learn more about the situation,” Joey said.
“Hi, I’m Stephanie. How may I help you?” Stephanie asked. She was just standing at the side.
“Ms. Wildman, nice to meet you. I am Chief Sanders, the Inspector General of Soutke City.
“I came here to learn more about Lana,” Joey said.
She had been in charge of handling Ezekiel’s case these days.
At the same time, she also knew that there was something off about Lana’s case.
Stephanie was pretty surprised. She did not expect that the Inspector General would
personally inquire about this matter.
She then summarized the entire incident for Joey. Lana also gave her own statement regarding
this matter.
“I’m going to advise you not to interfere in this case. I will handle it,” Caspian said to Joey.
“You? Could you handle it?” Joey asked, taken by surprise.
“I have my ways of handling it! Even if you know the Lincoln family was behind this case, would you dare
“What makes you think I won’t? I’m the Inspector General. I have the authority to arrest them!
Joey said with conviction.
“I really hope that’s the case,” Caspian said nonchntly..
He no longer bothered to stop Joey.
Caspian left Soutke Hospital to pick Willow up. Then, they headed toward Stewart
Residence.
Every family member of the Stewart family had already arrived.
When Willow saw Alicia and Richard, she suddenly felt annoyed and asked, “Why are you here?
Caspian scowled upon seeing the two of them.
After the Silverstone Hotel incident, it was rather surprising to see the two traitors shamelessly show up at
Why can’t wee? Since when did Stewart Residence be your territory?” Alicia said smugly.
Since they were in Stewart Residence, Alicia did not need to be afraid of them.
“What’s going on with the both of you? Settle down and eat your food!” Marilyn said.
Willow did as she was told. She did not want to disclose the hotel incident.
“Grandma, what did you want to talk about? Just tell me now,” Willow said
“Willow, I’ll just tell you right away. You must have heard about Glorious Group. They suddenly wanted to
