Chapter 13
“A billion of estimated value was in the past. Turner Corporation is only worth ten million now. Bear in
mind that this is the current price, as it might drop again after this. Think about it yourself!”
Logan sat on the couch before taking out a cigar and fiddling with it.
“Secu—”
Before Bradley could summon the security guard to drive Logan away, his cellphone andndline rang
simultaneously.
He took a look at the numbers. To his surprise, Henry Kenedy, the bank''s manager, and thepany
they had just signed a contract with were calling at the same time.
Right away, he had a bad premonition.
“Hello, Mr. McGowan. What? You want to drop the partnership with us? Have we done anything wrong,
Mr. McGowan—”
The line went dead before Bradley could finish his words.
Yet, he dared not to budge because the person who called was Craig McGowan, the Underground King
of Dellmoor.
When the news of Isabe and Daniel''s engagement was spread back then, Turner Corporation
managed to secure a contract worth 200 million with Craig''spany after theirpetitors had
withdrawn from the negotiation.
Since the Larson family had been taking revenge on the Turner family for the past few days, thetter''s
business partners ended their partnership one after another. However, the Turners thought they didn''t
need to worry about anything in theing two years as long as they had the contract with Craig.
Little did they expect Craig wanted to end his partnership as well.
In that case, with almost all the business partners having terminated their partnership, Turner
Corporation, originally worth one billion, would soon be an empty shellpanyprised of
only factories and equipment.
While Bradley was crestfallen, thendline on his desk continued to ring like a pesky reminder.
“Hello, Mr. Kennedy. How are you doing? What? You want us to pay for the loan now? But Mr.
Kennedy, didn''t you agree to extend it for another six months before? Why—”
Again, the line went dead before Bradley could finish his words. He was utterly dumbfounded as the
call ended in a series of beeps from the other end.
If Craig''s call was said to shrink Turner Corporation by tenfold, then the bank''s call would be equal to
forcing thetter to go bankrupt right away.

The Turners had used Craig''s contract as their guarantee to apply for a six-month extension of loan
repayment with the bank.
However, they lost all their contracts now and used up all their funds. Yet, the bank was calling to
collect on their loans.
Even suing Craig would make no difference from bringing doom to themselves.
“How is it? Do you still think that I''m ckmailing you by offering ten million to acquire Tuner
Corporation? I''ve changed my mind to five million, though. It still isn''t toote for you to agree now
unless you want to go for bankruptcy. By that time, not only will you lose thepany, but even your
house, car, and everything will also taken by the bank and sold at auction,” said Logan faintly as he lit
the cigar in his hand, taking a puff.
Bradley''s legs immediately gave out on him. His face was pale as he pointed at Logan, asking, “Were
you sent over by the Larson family?”
“The Larson family? Who are theypared to us?”
The two consecutive questions had entuated the disdainful expression on Logan''s face.
“I''m going to call my dad...”
In the end, the Turner family sold their unicornpany worth a billion the day before to a mysterious
boss for five million to avoid being forced into bankruptcy.
“All right. My boss wille over to take over thepany in two days. Please prepare for the
handover procedure. We''ll only transfer the five million to your family''s bank ount after the
handover''spleted.”
Before leaving, Logan requested the security guard to walk him out. “Have this security guard send me
downstairs.”
The security guard was thrilled upon hearing that, thinking it was the perfect opportunity for him to
show himself off in front of his new employer.
But when he reached outside the door downstairs with Logan, instead of gaining an opportunity, a
nightmare was waiting to devour him.
“Ah! My hand!” The security guard shrieked out loud in pain.
“Remember, we should never be ungrateful.” Right after Logan spoke those words, he left.
Other than the Turner family, Philip, the wealthiest man in Dellmoor, also received a call from his
subordinates when he was still in the north.
“What? The Tax Department had visited ourpany today for a spot check?”
Cold sweat started trickling down Philip''s body when he listened to his subordinate''s report.
With his status in Dellmoor, he would''ve certainly received prior notice about the spot check. However,
he didn''t receive any notification this time, not to mention the spot check was carried out during the
weekend. I can tell someone is trying to mess with me!
Philip looked into the matter but had no idea what exactly went wrong. Suddenly, he thought of Daniel
and quickly called home.
“Danny, did anything happen at home in the past two days?”
Philip was a little worried when he asked Daniel on the phone.
“I was just about to call you, Dad. Isabe brought a man over yesterday to call off the engagement. It''s
fairly obvious that she hasn''t only cheated on me but also humiliated our family.”
Daniel was furious when he told Philip that Isabelle hade to him with Harold to call off the
engagement.
“What was the man''s name? Did you do anything to them?”
Philip was also livid upon hearing Daniel''s words. How dare they humiliate us like this! Still, he tried to
be patient to find out what was happening.
“Except for Craig, I got all the Turners'' business partners cease coboration with them. As for
Isabe''s man, I think his name is, um, Harold something? I can''t recall anything else other than that.”
Philip''s heart began to beat wildly on the other end of the line, and his blood pressure surged when he
heard Daniel mentioning Harold. He eximed, “Do you mean Harold Campbell?”
“That''s it! His name is Harold Campbell! Wait a minute, how do you know about him, Dad?” Daniel was
puzzled when he heard Philip''s anxious tone.
“No wonder. It really is him. You b*stard! You''re in big trouble this time. Listen. Just stay at home, and
don''t go anywhere in the next two days. I''ming home tonight. Tomorrow, we''ll go to the Turner
residence together to apologize to Ms. Turner. Now, pass the phone to Edgar.”
After confirming the man was Harold, the God of War, Philip broke out in a cold sweat and immediately
gave Daniel a lecture on the phone. Then, he instructed Edgar, their butler, to lock Daniel up at home,
not giving him any chance to leave the house.
D*mn! Mr. Campbell definitely won''t spare us if we mess with him again. Even if he wants to take
Danny''s life, there''s nothing I can do.
After all, Harold was indeed not someone the Larson family could trifle with.
Daniel was confused by Philip''s words. Isabe had humiliated our family. Shouldn''t Dade back to
settle the score with the Turners? How could he want me to go to the Turner residence with him for an
apology?
Daniel thought the inferior Turner family didn''t deserve an apology from them.
To make it worse, the butler even locked him up in the house. No matter how loud he shouted, it was
useless.
Even his phone,puter, and other devices he could use to contact the outside world were
confiscated. Sh*t! I can''t even call a young model to keep mepany now.
Meanwhile, Logan reported to Harold on the phone once he had settled the things.
After ending the call with Logan, Harold found himself near a luxury car exhibition. He suddenly
remembered Benson''s words yesterday and braked hard.
Then, he parked the bicycle in front of a car dealership and walked in.
