Semua Bab The Almighty Dragon General: Bab 221 - Bab 230

He looked at Howard and said, “Howard, investigate the matter. If Thea was behind this all along, she wouldn’t be let off the hook so easily.” “Yes.” Howard nodded. Meanwhile, Tommy wore a scheming look on his face. He flashed Wendy a victorious smile. Lex stood up and headed upstairs to rest. In the hallway on the first floor, Howard looked at Tommy. “Do you have anything to do with this?” Discomposed, he hurriedly explained, “What are you talking about, father? How’s that possible?” Howard said coldly, “This is no small matter. If anything happens, it’ll bring about the destruction of the Callahans. Thea is no fool. She couldn’t have done such a thing.” Tommy indeed panicked when he saw the deceased’s family making a commotion. That was because his plan should have been flawless. He only wanted to create trouble for Thea. Although something was wrong with the medicine, it was not supposed to be fatal. “Father, Thea is bossing us around. If this continues, she’ll be

Yosef was trying to frame her. “Grandpa, I’m innocent.” “Enough.” Lex chided, “Thea, no more of this in the future. Give up your position as the chairman for now. Howard will be the new chairman, while you’ll be the vice chairman. Learn from him in the meantime.” Lex turned to leave. Although Thea had made a grave mistake, she was competent. Besides, she had connections. As they had worked hard to bring her back, Lex did not chase her out of the family. Instead, he demoted her. Howard shook his head and sighed. “Thea, you’re still young and have a long way to go. I hope you’ve learned your lesson.” “I-I’m innocent!” Thea cried out. “Yosef, tell grandpa it wasn’t me. It’s not me. Why are you framing me? Why?” Howard helped Yosef up and said, “Yosef, this isn’t entirely your fault. We can only blame those who mess around thinking they have the authority to do so. You’re already sixty years old. You should retire.” “T-Thank you, Mr. Howard.” Yosef apologized prof

Exasperated, Lex bellowed in rage, “Go get me Thea and her family now!” “Yes.” Tommy wore a smug look. He snorted deep down, “What will you do now, Thea?” The Callahans’ villa was not too far from Thea’s place. Tommy did not call. Instead, he showed up without warning. James was already home. Upon seeing their dejected looks, he said with a smile, “No worries. Yosef has confessed to it. He’s now on his way to the Callahans’ villa to admit his mistake. Soon, grandpa will be here.” Upon hearing this, Thea glanced at James. “W-What did you do to him?” James smiled, “Nothing much. I just gave him a scare. After threatening to throw him off the eighth floor, he spilled the beans. He even said he would go to the Callahans’ villa and tell them the truth.” “Haha, nice one, James.” “I feel much better now.” They rarely praised James. James, on the other hand, smiled faintly. Not long after, a knock came on the door. James said with a smile, “It has to be the Callahans.”

“Mom, that’s absurd! How could it be me?” Thea teared up, feeling wronged. ‘It’s alright if Grandpa doesn’t believe me, but even my own parents are doubting me,’ thought Thea.“Mom, I trust Thea wouldn’t do such things. It must be Howard’s family pulling something sketchy,” said David.Alyssa nodded. “I agree. Our family has fifty percent of the family business’ shares, and Thea reclaimed the executive chairman position. Howard has always been in control of the family business, so how could he possibly be willing to give it up?” “Ha,” Gladys sighed.Initially, Gladys thought they were about to have a good life and never expected so many things to happen. “Am I really not fated to be a rich wife in this lifetime?”“How about we start our own company? With Thea’s capabilities, we can surely make a name for ourselves in the capital of medicine, Cansington,” James suggested.“Easy for you to say. Do you know how much you need and how difficult it is to start a company?” Glayds s

Gladys was also tempted by his words.David said, “James, do you know how inferior the Pacific Group is to Eternality? Even though it is a big manufacturing factory, Granduncle already said it is on the brink of shutting down. Not only can’t he receive new orders, but the company is also in ten million debt. It won’t be that easy to take over, right? Plus, Pacific is Granduncle’s lifetime work. He might not sell it even if you offered him a huge sum.”Benjamin nodded. “That’s right. Besides, do you even have money?”“Money won’t be a problem. I’ll find a way to get it,” James said plainly.Gladys was already tempted. They would definitely be able to earn money if they managed to raise enough funds to take over Pacific Group. It had complete human resources and equipment to continue running. On top of that, Thea had connections with Celestial Group and Longevity Pharmaceuticals. Thus, they would surely be able to receive orders.It was much better than enduring the Callahans’ unf
