When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1298


    “Haha,” I smiled, adjusted my emotions, and turned to ask Brooklyn, “why did Mr. Queen file awsuit


    against Ziegler Corporation?”


    Brooklyn looked at Bryson helplessly, then lowered his head and exined in a polite tone. “There is


    an investmentpany under Ziegler Corporation that deals with stocks and funds. Two months ago,


    Mr. Queen invested in somemodity futures that amounted to around two hundred million following


    the suggestion of a top investment agent.


    However, in only one month’s time, he suffered aplete loss from this investment. During this time


    period, not even a single soul checked with him whether to sell off the futures to cut losses. After this


    whole event, Mr. Queen went to the investmentpany to demand an answer for his unreasonable


    loss. They refused to do anything about Mr. Queen’s loss citing the reason of thepany not being


    responsible for unpredictable market changes.”


    At the mention of his misfortune, Bryson was especially inmed. He took off his sses and ranted,


    “Damn it! I thought the Zieglers were an elite family and hoped to make friends with them. That was the


    reason I gave all that money to the Ziegler woman without worry. Who would have foreseen that it was


    a trap?

    I went all the way to theirpany, waited a whole day, and that wretched woman didn’t even bother to


    appear. Whatever it is, I am a director of a listedpany, so she’s definitely looking down on me! I will


    remember this! I am not a Queen if I don’t make them pay!”


    I was taken aback. I have only heard one person speak in this manner, and that was John. There was


    someone like him in K City? Why haven’t I heard anybody mention him before?


    Looking at Bryson, I suddenly felt a slight regret at not having met him earlier.


    Based on my first impression of him, there was nothing especially remarkable about Bryson.


    Nheless, his daring attitude toward Thora made him a person worth befriending.


    “Alright, I understand. Don’t worry, Mr. Queen. We will take up your case, and assign our bestwyer to


    you. If that arrangement doesn’t work for you, I shall represent you myself,” I offered generously.


    “Really?” Bryson looked at me skeptically. He lowered his head; his cunning fox-like eyes flickered


    rapidly. “It seems what was said in the magazine was right…” He mumbled to himself.


    He said it at a very low volume, but my ears caught the intriguing statement. Therefore, I gossiped


    unabashedly. “What did the magazine say?”


    Bryson paused for a beat, then collected himself and put his sses back on. Grinning cheerfully, he


    answered, “It said that the Stovall family had a bone to pick with the Ziegler family and that you were


    always on the lookout to stir up trouble for them.


    Going by this logic, it made sense to contact the Stovall family. By the looks of it, the magazine had


    been spot on. I have already made it known since a month ago that money is not an issue as long as I


    can win thewsuit against the Ziegler family and embarrass them. Up until now, you are the only one


    daring enough to take up my case.”


    What Bryson talked about was probably the whole ruckus that John stirred up to deal with Mitchell. It


    was no longer a trending topic, but some small publications were still milking and sensationalizing this


    incident to sell their magazines.


    Whoever gave Bryson the idea must have intended tond a blow on the Ziegler family by using the


    Stovall family, and they could avoidnding themselves in hot water at the same time. Yet, Bryson told


    us everything up front. He was evidently quite frank and not a maniptive person.


    This type of people was actually the easiest to deal with.


    I smiled and courteously replied, “The Stovall and Ziegler families did have a small misunderstanding.


    However, it’s not to the extent of having bad blood. Since both of our families are running businesses in


    K City, we are bound to have dealings with each other. It would be impossible to cut all ties. But let me


    rify what I heard just now. You said that as long as we win thewsuit, we can ask for any price. Did


    you really mean it?”


    People who had dealings in the corporate world have to be cautious and versatile, especially those


    from prominent families. Even if two families could no longer tolerate each other, they would not make it


    obvious to the public. Saving face for one another is crucial because enemies could be friends


    under other circumstances. No one would opt to burn down all their bridges.


    Still, no one was willing to take up Bryson’s case except for me. The message that I was sending out


    by doing this was clear as day.


    Bryson may be a straightforward person, but he got my hint and guffawed. “Don’t worry about that for I


    have done my survey around for a bit. As long as we manage to win thewsuit, even the worst


    oue would call for Thora to pay a hundred million. You can have all of it by that time. What I want


    is just the thrill from seeing her atone for her wrongdoing!”
