Chapter 145 A dark and windy night
Even someone as composed as Luo Hong couldn't help but reach out and lift his chin back up.
what did he say?
A gift? Yes, a gift!
This isn't something you can just give away for a million or two; this is a top-tier hotel of immeasurable value!
Does he have that much influence? No, it shouldn't be his.
"May I ask if you are acquainted with my young lady?"
Knowing? More than just knowing.
"Old friend."
With just that one sentence, the other end of the phone hung up.
Within three seconds, a message popped up.
The transfer documents will be delivered tomorrow.
Luo Hong was still completely confused and couldn't help but pinch himself.
"Ouch, that hurts!" It really does!
Such a big hotel was given away for free! They really just gave it away like that!
Luo Hong could barely hold his phone steady as he hurriedly dialed Yun Yao's number.
Yun Yao had just settled Qi Mo in when her phone started vibrating like crazy.
"what happened?"
"Ancestor, it's done!" Luo Hong exclaimed excitedly.
"What's done?"
"Hotel, weren't you going to acquire Season?"
So fast? Luo Hong's speed is impressive!
"How much did it cost?" Such a high-end hotel must cost at least several billion.
"Ancestor, this hotel is a free gift."
Yun Yao stopped in her tracks, her mind blank for a moment.
"Given away for free?"
"Yes, it's a free gift, I didn't spend a penny. The transfer documents will be delivered tomorrow." Luo Hong said excitedly.
Even Yun Yao calmed down for a moment.
Who owns this hotel?
Upon hearing Yun Yao ask this, Luo Hong slapped his forehead.
I was so excited that I forgot to ask the other person's name.
"He...he said he's an old friend of yours."
old friend?
Yun Yao fell into deep thought.
It's not that she has too many friends and can't remember any of them; it's that she doesn't have any friends at all.
After much thought, Yun Yao finally came to this conclusion.
"Luo Hong, do you think this guy is a little mentally unstable?"
Luo Hong: "..." He thought so too.
But one shouldn't be ungrateful! Luo Hong still said many good things about the other party.
"Ancestor, judging from his voice, this person is a young man, and he's much more generous than that Su Yuchen!"
……
She went on and on, saying a whole bunch of things.
Su Yuchen next door sneezes every now and then.
Have you caught a cold? That shouldn't be the case.
……
On a dark and windy night, people are killing people and setting fires.
Unlike the tranquility of the hotel, the Anna family is now in complete chaos.
Daniel and Irving finally broke the ice, and the two confronted each other at home.
Behind each of them stood dozens of people, all of whom were their loyal followers.
"Owen, your true colors are finally showing! What, are you already itching to get rid of me?" Daniel remained as arrogant as ever.
Irving was dressed in a black suit, his long legs crossed, his eyes sharp.
Unlike before, when she was gentle and refined, she now looked extremely aggressive.
“Daniel, I’ve tolerated your misconduct in the family business, but what you did today at the jade gambling convention? You forcibly took other people’s rough stones, let your men jeer and drive up the price, and even caused a fight that resulted in injuries.”
"You know perfectly well that your father valued the jade gambling tournament the most when he was alive, yet you still dared to act recklessly on the anniversary of his death?"
With a loud thud, Irving slammed his hand on the coffee table.
Daniel completely ignored him, continuing to puff on his cigar and exhale clouds of smoke.
“Owen, since you’re so filial, why don’t you go down and keep him company?” Daniel sat up straight, his expression fierce.
“Young Master, don’t forget, you are not the head of the family yet. Here, you still have to address our master as ‘elder brother’!” said the butler standing next to Owen.
As soon as he finished speaking, the men behind Daniel raised their guns in unison.
"Insolence!" The butler was not afraid. With a command, the men behind him were not to be outdone.
The two sides were locked in a stalemate, each waiting for the other to break the silence first.
a long time.
"Put the gun down," Owen said first.
Seeing this, Daniel also raised his hand.
“Owen, you’re usually so calm, why are you so impulsive today? You’re being so… reckless.” Daniel stubbed out his cigar and looked at Owen with interest.
Irving ignored him; he was waiting, waiting for something that would stop Daniel from being so arrogant!
The two sides remained locked in a standoff until the early hours of the morning. Just as Daniel's side was about to doze off, a roaring engine sounded, instantly waking everyone up and putting them on high alert.
On the other hand, Irving's side seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Irving, what tricks are you trying to pull?"
If Daniel hasn't noticed Owen's unusual behavior by now, he's definitely not worthy of being a member of the Anna family.
“Mr. Owen, this is a gift from our master.”
Just as Daniel was losing control, a male voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone looked towards the doorway and saw Chen Dong arrive with several people, placing three boxes on the ground.
“It’s you!” Daniel recognized Chen Dong immediately.
His master? That must be Su Yuchen!
That bastard Su Yuchen, he disagreed with cooperating with Yonsei International, and then he got tricked by him!
"Mr. Owen, I had already notified Interpol before I came. You have family matters to attend to, so I won't bother you any longer. Good night." Chen Dong bowed slightly and left with his men.
When Irving opened the box on the floor, a look of despair flashed across Daniel's eyes, and he collapsed onto the sofa with a thud.
“Daniel, the crimes you’ve committed over the years are countless. What’s displayed here is just the tip of the iceberg. You deserve to die!” Owen threw a file from the box at Daniel.
Sure enough, I saw despair and disbelief in his eyes.
“This is impossible! Where did you get this from?! It’s all fake! This is slander!” Daniel roared.
“Whether you’ve been framed or not, justice will prevail, Daniel Anna. Come with us!” A row of police officers stood at the door.
The cold handcuffs landed on his wrists, and Daniel looked at Owen with eyes full of resentment.
"Irving, I swear, you'll die a horrible death!"
"And those who disrespect me, I will kill them all! I will kill them! Hahaha!" With his last line of defense breached, Daniel lost control of his emotions.
Perhaps, this is his true nature.
His insults only stopped when Daniel was put into the car.
Owen rubbed his temples wearily, wanting to call Su Yuchen back, but after seeing the time, he gave up.
At this point, he should probably be resting.
Su Yuchen came to his door today not to win him over, but to present him with a great gift.
He said that the Annas family held important sources of goods, and many houses were built using materials supplied by their family. If these materials fell into the hands of unscrupulous people, and they were to use inferior materials for their own selfish gain, not just one or two people would die, but thousands upon thousands would perish because of their family feuds.
This is not what Irving wanted to see, nor what his father wanted to see. Daniel's behavior has long violated the original intention of the Anna family, and is even a smear campaign.
That's why he made the difficult decision to remove Daniel from his position.
I hope everything will get better from now on...
