Chapter 146 Forced to Close the Factory
Chloe left CloudPharma.
"She's so perfect." Lost in thought about Chloe's beauty, a hint of greed appeared on Edward's face. He had heard of Chloe a long ago but had never seen her. Today, he finally did.
He picked up his phone and dialed a number. "Come see me right away."
Soon, Elijah Stone, wearing a yellow T-shirt and sporting long hair that made him look like a thug, walked into Edward's office with a bright smile. "Edward, what's up?"
Edward instructed, "Round up some guys and cause some trouble at Everlasting Group's factory. Don't make it too big, just enough to disrupt their operations."
"Got it, no problem."
Edward sneered as he muttered to himself, "Chloe, I told you, you'll come back begging me soon."
Chloe returned to the Everlasting Group, quite upset not getting the money back. She prepared various related documents, including evidence from the previous lawsuit against CloudPharma. After organizing them, she began contacting a lawyer.
"Ms. Lewis." Drake came running in a hurry.
"What's wrong?" Chloe frowned and said, "Why are you so flustered?"
"There are people causing trouble at the factory. They're from CloudPharma. These people have been causing trouble frequently, and now they're back again."
Hearing this, Chloe frowned slightly, pondering, 'Edward said I would eventually come to him. So this is the reason.'
She said calmly, "Call the police immediately."
"Ms. Lewis, it's useless. CloudPharma has a strong background, and one of its major shareholders is a high-ranking official in Sunset City with significant power. We've called the police before, but as soon as they leave, these people come back to cause trouble."
"This is outrageous." Chloe slammed the table in anger.
Drake asked, "Ms. Lewis, did you meet Edward at CloudPharma? What did you say to him that made him retaliate against the Everlasting Group?"
Chloe waved her hand slightly. "Alright, you can go now. I'll handle this."
"Okay, Ms. Lewis, please resolve this quickly. The factory just resumed production, and if something happens again, the employees might get disappointed or even resign."
"I understand."
Only then did Drake turn and leave. After he left, Chloe was also very frustrated. Even calling the police was useless. With her current capabilities, she couldn't handle these matters. Only the mysterious Mr. Bennett could solve this.
'Do I really have to go to him?' Chloe shook her head. She didn't want to have any more connections with Mr. Bennett. She was afraid she might fall for the mysterious Mr. Bennett, but she didn't want to betray Larry. She sat in her office, lost in thought.
In the afternoon, Drake came to the office again, saying that the group of people was causing a lot of trouble, and the factory couldn't operate normally. Chloe had no choice but to temporarily shut down the factory and give the employees a break.
Larry went to see Frank to discuss taking a position, but Frank had no suggestions.
Larry thought about it and decided to take a position at the Epoch Group, just to give Chloe some peace of mind. However, he wasn't in a hurry. After spending the morning at Frank's place, he stayed home the entire afternoon.
In the evening, Chloe came back, looking dejected.
Larry had set the table and said, "Honey, dinner's ready. You don't look well. What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"Nothing." Chloe waved her hand slightly. It wasn't that she didn't want to talk; it was just that telling Larry wouldn't help.
During dinner, even Maria noticed that something was off with Chloe. She couldn't help but ask, "Chloe, what's wrong? Why the long face?"
Chloe said, "I'm fine."
"Don't say you're fine; it's obvious something's bothering you."
"Yes, it's some issues at the company," Chloe said helplessly. "CloudPharma owes the Everlasting Group four million dollars, so I went to CloudPharma today."
Chloe explained the situation,"I didn't expect CloudPharma to have such a strong background. Not only did I not get the money back, but I also stirred up a lot of trouble."
"Go find Mr. Bennett," Maria immediately suggested. "He is so capable; solving this should be a piece of cake for him."
"We'll see." Chloe quickly ate a little and then went to her room to rest. She was very tired and didn't want to think about these things for now.
Larry had been listening the whole time. After working for half an hour, he finally finished tidying up the kitchen and came out with a trash bag.
"Maria, I'm taking out the trash. Chloe, I'm taking out the trash." Larry called out, but no one responded. He was used to it and went out.
After throwing away the trash, he took out his phone and called Frank.
Frank asked ,"Larry, what's up?"
Larry's expression was grim, and he said coldly, "Call Grim Reaper and borrow a thousand men for me."
Frank was lying on a mat on the floor, while his bed was occupied by Amelia. He immediately rolled over and got up, asking, "What's going on? What happened?"
"Just a small matter. Get a thousand men and three hundred excavators to level CloudPharma's factories for me. You come pick me up, and we'll go to CloudPharma's headquarters."
"Got it." Frank hung up and immediately called Grim .
"Ghost Lord, arrange a thousand men and three hundred excavators to level CloudPharma's factories. Don't hurt anyone. If anything happens, Free will handle it," Frank instructed.
Amelia, who was sitting on the bed playing with her phone, perked up when she heard the name Free. She got up excitedly and asked, "Frank, what's going on? What happened?"
At this moment, Amelia was no longer wearing heavy makeup but was bare-faced. She looked quite pretty, with fair skin and a bit of cuteness. She was wearing a denim mini skirt and a white T-shirt with a cartoon design on the front.
Frank glanced at her and said, "Stay at the clinic."
With that, he walked out.
"Frank, wait for me!" Amelia hurriedly got up, putting on her shoes while shouting.
Frank had already walked far away, so she didn't bother with the shoes and ran out holding them.
In the car, Frank frowned and said, "Stop messing around. I'm going to handle serious business."
"I'm not messing around. I'm also going to handle serious business. I'm good at fighting too; I won't be a burden to you," Amelia said.
Frank felt troubled and unlucky to run into her.
Amelia refused to get out, and Frank had no choice but to warn her, "I'm telling you, the person who came this morning is not to be trifled with. When you see him, don't say anything rash."
"Larry, I know. He's got a good temper, much easier to get along with than you."
Frank shook his head helplessly and then drove to pick up Larry.
Larry waited by the roadside for about half an hour before Frank showed up. He opened the passenger door and saw Amelia sitting there, frowning.
Frank said helplessly, "Larry, she insisted on coming. I couldn't stop her."
Amelia clenched her fists and said, "Larry, I've learned martial arts too. I won't embarrass you."
"Alright, sit in the back." Larry grabbed Amelia and pulled her out. Then he got into the passenger seat.
Amelia quickly opened the back door and sat in the rear seat.
Frank asked, "Larry, what's going on?"
Larry said with a stern expression, "CloudPharma messed with Chloe. Let's go to CloudPharma. I want to see who this Edward is, daring to mess with my wife."
