Chapter 1315
"She wouldn't dare!" Lucian blurted out.
The second time Lucian visited the Durham family, he met a very young woman he had to call 'Grandma.'
Arabella didn't like him one bit. Whenever he got close, she looked at him with pure disgust.
She asked Lucian, "Do you know anything about Wyatt’s mom?"
Lucian just stared at her, clueless.
Arabella gave a creepy smile. "Her whole family was super loyal and died in battle. The people around her are all her brother's and dad's old crew, and they're all sharpshooters who can kill without blinking. Over the years, anyone who messed with her paid the price. Your existence makes her sad. What do you think will happen to you?"
Lucian was scared out of his mind.
He didn't dare sleep at home, trembling in a corner.
Sapphira tried to comfort him, "With Larry around, she wouldn't dare."
Wyatt sneered, "Wouldn't she dare? Then why, even after my grandpa passed away, have you never become a member of the Durham family?"
Lucian's face went pale. "I'm not gonna argue with you. You've got the shares, and from today, I quit the Durham group. We won't see or contact each other again!"
Wyatt just nodded.
Lucian didn't take anything with him. Facing the judgmental eyes of the people in the group, he left the Durham group confidently.
As soon as he got home, investigators knocked on Lucian's door.
Lucian was shocked and quickly said, "I've already settled with the company!"
"Economic crime, what settlement are you talking about?"
Lucian was stunned.
Meanwhile, Wyatt stood at the top of the capital city's CBD, sipping a cup of coffee.
The day he returned, he had a phone call with Fiona.
Fiona said that since he was back, he shouldn't let those who wanted to destroy the Durham family and his parents have an easy life.
He didn't say anything at the time.
Not only would he not let them have an easy life, but he would also make them suffer a fate worse than death.
People always feel more desperate after experiencing hope.
The amount Lucian embezzled was massive.
It was uncertain if he could survive this lifetime.
As for those who colluded with him, Wyatt would deal with them carefully, not letting a single one go.
In the next two days, Wyatt stayed at the company.
Once considered a playboy by the higher-ups, he now showed excellent work capabilities.
Simultaneously handling several projects, Wyatt never made a mistake, not even a slip of the tongue.
After the meeting ended, Wyatt went back to the lounge to rest for a bit.
When the assistant came out, he was stopped by a few women from the president's office. "Mr. Nightingale, give us some inside info. Is Mr. Durham single now? Stella got married, has he forgotten her?"
Cassius lowered his eyes.
The scene before he left the lounge flashed in his mind.
Wyatt was sitting in a chair by the floor-to-ceiling window, casually picking up a bottle of perfume and spraying it in front of him. Then he took a deep breath. He closed his eyes, tired but satisfied.
That perfume was the one Stella had used for over ten years.
"Mr. Durham's current love is the Durham group. Focus on your work and not think about irrelevant things!" Cassius said, then hurriedly left.
He still hadn't finished the tasks Wyatt had assigned.
