Chapter 180 Have You Offended Anyone Lately
Fiona had hired a criminalst time to rape J. However, her n was exposed and ruined.
Since then, she couldn''t find a chance to vent her anger. Later, after a lot of thinking, she devised
this scheme. She was determined to take revenge this time.
The Lind family had raised J. But now, the dog was going to ride on its master. She couldn''t let
that happen.
However, the previous experience had taught her a lesson. Fiona restrained her emotions now. She
had others to execute the n now and was sure no one would find out she was the mastermind.
When Fiona heard the news that the fraudsters had caused trouble in J''spany, she was
ecstatic. After all, the men were dangerous people. They were all experienced enforcers who would
go to any extent for money.

Fiona hated how J had her way with everything by putting on an innocent face. She felt the
woman was a master at faking innocence. She behaved as if she were on a mission to let the entire
world know that the Lind family had ill-treated her.
''Now, everyone could see through her pretense. This conniving bitch would lose her foothold in the
Larson Group. That''s for sure.''
A triumphant smile emerged on Fiona''s face as she thought her n had seeded this time. She
didn''t want to contact the fraudsters. The less she got involved in the matter, the better.
One day, she saw the news on TV that the police hadunched a crackdown on several fraud
groups. Although Fiona was not sure if it included the fraud group she had hired, dread and unease
settled in the pit of her stomach. The fear was eating her up.
All of a sudden, Fiona recalled what had happened to thest man she hired. She broke into a cold
sweat and began squirming with fear. Fiona abandoned her previous n and called the fraud
group.
The phone rang, but no one answered. Finally, she sensed something was wrong and slumped on
the sofa helplessly.
Bernie flipped the pages of the newspaper and muttered, "The fraud groups are rampant now. They
deserve it," he said, looking at Fiona.
Seeing the dread on her pallid face, he arched an eyebrow and asked, "Did you do anything wrong
again?"
As soon as Bernie finished speaking, his phone rang.
"Hello. What can I do for you?" Bernie asked respectfully. After all, he was talking to a powerful
man.
A shiver ran down Fiona''s spine as she looked at Bernie.
"What? No. But everything went on well. Why have you decided to withdraw the investment? We
reached an agreement before, didn''t we?" Bernie licked his lips and wiped the sweat on his face.
Then, he put down the newspaper and leaned back on the sofa.
Bernie had worked so hard to reach the refinancing agreement. With this money, he could reopen
the abandoned stic factory and hopefully gradually get the family business back on track.
He heard a soft sigh from the other end of the line. "Anyway, we haven''t signed the contract yet.
You better take care of your business. Please don''te to us again in the future."
With that, the man hung up the phone.
Judging from his resolute tone, Bernie understood the man had made up his mind.
Bernie was pacing back and forth in the living room when his phone rang again.
Anotherpany had also called to cancel their partnership.
Bernie could tell that they were all in a hurry to cut ties with hispany. His stomach churned with
anxiety. The relentless phone calls turned his throat dry, but all his efforts were in vain. He couldn''t
convince them.
The phone calls continued; Bernie grew anxious and worried with every passing moment. The
partneringpanies were willing to even pay a high penalty fee to distance themselves from the
Lind family.
Bernie''s face turned ashen pale as he continued to wipe his sweat in despair.
Bernie had been a part of the business circle for several years. His father hadid the foundation for
thepany in the early years. Now, the technological advancement and change in trends
worsened the situation of hispany. However, Bernie was sure that wasn''t the reason why his
partners had chosen to abandon him.
"We''ve been friends for so many years. Can you at least tell me what happened?" Bernie''s voice
trembled.
"I''m sorry, but I can''t. He is a powerful man. But I don''t understand. You two are not supposed to
have any interaction. Well, I suggest you reflect onyouractions.Haveyouoffendedanyontely?" said
the man on the phone.
Bernie couldn''t think of anyone except for a few influential families that would ruin the lives of the
people who rubbed them the wrong way. But Bernie didn''t remember offending any one of them.
