    Chapter 327 Offending the Wrong People


    The Winfred Group’s Subsidiary Company. When Jeremy got the phone call, he got incredibly angry that


    the veins in his neck were bulging.


    He clenched the phone firmly and scolded angrily, “You bunch of morons! How can you screw up so


    badly? Can’t you even watch over one useless guy?”


    The other end of the phone remained silent, and Jeremy’s anger grew to the point where he mmed


    the phone against the wall.


    “Bang!”


    With a loud crash, his state-of-the-art phone shattered into pieces and fell to the ground. At the same


    time, the office door was pushed open from the outside.


    Xavier entered with a cold expression. When he saw who it was, Jeremy didn’t even have time to hide


    the anger on his face.


    Xavier’s leather shoes thudded heavily on the wooden floor as he walked, each step feeling like a punch


    to Jeremy’s gut. He just stood there, unable to say a word. Xavier slowly sat down and scolded in a cold


    tone, “You have quite the temper.”


    Jeremy kept his head down, too scared to look up. He knew very well that his father was not someone to


    be trifled with when he was in such a rage.


    Looking at Jeremy’s helpless appearance, Xavier felt even more annoyed and couldn’t help but curse,


    I’ve told you countless times to be cautious and not rush into things. Why won’t you ever listen?”


    Jeremy knew that his father must havee for the matter concerning Erick, and he couldn’t help but


    feel frustrated.


    “Dad, I had people watching the hospital, and I injected medicine into Erick. How did he disappear like


    that? Plus, the hospital cameras stopped working exactly when Erick disappeared. It’s too much of a


    coincidence!”


    “Are you telling the truth?” Xavier asked, raising his eyebrows in slight surprise.


    “Of course not, Dad. I’d never lie about something this big,” Jeremy confidently replied. Xavier could tell


    that Jeremy was telling the truth, but he also found it strange.


    “Dad, could this be the Hacker Alliance’s doing? I doubt Erick, that brat, has the skills for this!”


    Xavier quickly noticed something amiss and gave Jeremy a stern look.


    “Did you offend the Hacker Alliance?”


    Jeremy realized he had identally let something slip and looked extremely embarrassed. Xavier


    mmed his hand on the nearby table in frustration, “You fool! At a time like this, you’re still trying to hide


    things from me?”


    “Dad, it’s not a big deal. The Hacker Alliance sent someone this morning to discuss the contract, and I


    managed to send them away. They didn’t say much and just left. I thought it was fine!” Jeremy said.


    Seeing Jeremy still seemingly unaware of the gravity of the situation, Xavier felt like he was about to


    have a heart attack.

    “You thought it was fine? Do you know what kind of organization the Hacker Alliance is? Do they easily


    let go of what they’re interested in?”


    Just as they were arguing, Xavier’s phone suddenly rang. He picked up the phone and his expression


    grew increasingly grave. Seeing Xavier’s reaction, Jeremy panicked, “Dad, what’s wrong? Why do you


    look so pale?”


    Xavier pointed a trembling finger at Jeremy, his eyes widening significantly, “You… you…”


    Before he could finish his sentences, he passed outpletely! Erick never expected that Catherine


    would bring him back to the ck market.


    As he observed Catherine confidently entering the heart of the ck market, he began to question what


    Catherine’s rtionship with Sean really was.


    He hadn’t known Sean’s identity before, butter, he learned that Sean was the Mr. Scott of the ck


    market. Gaining a high position in the ck market at a young age gave Sean great influence and power


    there.


    Unless someone had a death wish, nobody dared to mess with Sean. Although Catherine was a skilled


    boxer, she was still just a boxer. How could she casually enter the core of the ck market?


    What was her rtionship with Sean?


    Before Erick coulde up with an answer, they were already back in Sean’s office. Sean was reading


    documents when someone barged in without even a greeting.


    He was nearly losing his temper because they barged in suddenly. But everything changed when he


    nced up and spotted Catherine. In an instant, he calmed down.


    He couldn’t afford to provoke Catherine. Taking a closer look, Sean realized that not only Catherine but


    also Ronin and Erick were there. He put down the documents and stood up slowly, assessing them.


    “Well, howe you left just yesterday, and today you’re back? Has my shabby ce suddenly be


    a hot spot that everyone likes to visit?”


    Catherine didn’t say anything. She strolled over to a bookshelf, grabbed a


    book in front of everyone, and opened a hiddenpartment next to it, revealing a ck cab.


    Sean, feeling impatient, yelled at Catherine’s back, “What’s going on here? Don’t you see how many


    people are in here? Why are you opening mypartment?”


    The ck cab was actually a fridge, but Catherine didn’t pay attention to Sean’sints. She


    opened the fridge and began to take something out.


    Sean didn’t know what she was up to and rushed to stop her. Ronin stepped forward and stood in Sean’s


    way. He assumed a confident posture and dered, “If you want to get past, you’ll have to step over my


    dead body!”


    Seeing Ronin’s stance, Sean turned red with anger.


    “You’re insane!”


    Catherine found what she was looking for, turned around, and waved Erick over, signaling him toe


    closer. Erick didn’t hesitate and approached obediently, walking unusually slowly.


    While Erick was walking, Catherine exined to Sean, “Don’t worry, I haven’t touched your precious


    belongings!”


    Then, she rolled up Erick’s sleeve, took a syringe from the nearby area, and injected its contents into


    Erick’s arm.


    “Alright, go rest for a bit!”


    After finishing the injection for Erick, Catherine casually closed Sean’s little secretpartment. Sean,


    seeing that Catherine indeed hadn’t tampered with his valuables, breathed a sigh of relief.


    Nevertheless, he decided that as soon as they left, he would relocate his precious items. ncing at the


    small medicine vial Catherine had used, Sean suddenly realized what had happened. He shifted his


    gaze to Erick.


    “Did someone give Tyler a dose of Softener?”


    “Softener” was just another name for this drug. Actually, it was a drug that weakened one’s limbs. This


    kind of thing was quitemon in the ck market.


    Correspondingly, Sean also had an antidote for this type of drug. Just now, Catherine had administered


    the antidote to Erick, and its effects would kick in within ten minutes.


    No wonder Sean had noticed that Erick seemed sluggish today,cking his usual fierceness. It turned out


    he had been drugged!
