Chapter 22
Early the next morning, Marcus was already in the Lowell Group building. He thought a lawyer and planned to head to the police station
“Mi Lowell, Lampton Group’s legal team is representing Avery. They are one of Gramsville’s top legal teams. This time, things don’t look good for Zack Harper
Moreover, the evidence in stacked against him. He was caught consuming illegal substances. With multiple changes combined, I’m afraid prison is the only likely outcome.”
Kevin locked nervously at Marcus, whose face dakened.
Why was Gideon going so far to help Avery?
“As for Ms. Harper, the surveillance footage and the people in Avery’s live stream all heard her giving the order to detain Avery. I’m afraid she’s not getting out of this unscathed either.” Erin explained
Mars are darkened even more as he pulled out his phone to call Gideon.
The Langston and the Lowell had always stayed out of each other’s
‘s way, Would the Langstons offend the Lowells just because of Avery? couldn’t be that simple.
Gideon was known to be intelligent and unpredictable, making it tough for people to find his weaknesses
Now, he was suddenly showing such favor to Avery, going as far as mobilizing a top–notch legal team for her. Who would believe that he had no ulterior motives or that he wasn’t using Avery for something?
The call tang for a long time before dicken finally answered
“Mr. Langston, still in Helsenville Marcus asked with polite courtesy
“Yes. Something came up, so I be here a few more days,” Gideon replied casually
“Theard you’ve sent your legal team to handle a dispute involving an assistant of time. Is that true?” Marcus probed carefully.
“A dispute? Not quite sent them to handle a criminal case,” Gideon replied landly
Marcus” expression sank “Mr. Langaton, we’re all friends here. Don’t you think it’s unnecessary to cause unwanted strain in our relationship?”
“I was taught to be graceful. She managed to bring a smile to my grandfather’s face and lupt him happy. That’s not something many can da
“My grandfather sent the legal team himself, so I have no say in this matter”
Gideon was liar a sly fox, knowing exactly how to play the game.
The Langs and Lowells couldn’t afford to fall out completely, but now that Gideon brought Arthur into the conversation, there was nothing Marcus could do about it
He couldn’t possibly call Arthur, who had long retired from the business world due to his poor health.
Marcus wasn’t that reckles
“Soir was Mr. Langston Senior.” Marcus grined his teeth, forcing himself to swallow his anger.
“Mr. Lowell, I believe you’re a wise man who can tell right from wrong, it’s best not to protect someone who’s obviously guilty. Zack Harper is a piece of trash,
“t’s better for him to be sent to prison and taught a besson. Otherwise, if you and Ms. Harper really end up getting married, he’ll be nothing but a troublemaker. Don’t you agree?” Gideon
Mannes Towner. He had to air that Gideon’s wrong.
Zack was indeeda troublemaker. Maybe a few years behind bats would be good for him.
[ case, I’lat you get back to your business, Mr. Langton. The next time you’re in Heisevilla, let’s catch up,” Marcus said before hanging up Beurted to Kevin and ordered, “Have the lawyer over and tell Zack that there’s no escaping prison. No one can change that. If he doesn’t want to diag www up to the taber impi hanmeni. ”

Marcus rubbed his temples and to the Pam. Suppies all the negative news about Madison online
” Lowell, It’s at that easy. There were too many people in Avery’s live stream. Frankly, Ma. Hasper acted impkquely this time.
Even the PKiram lelt that Martison was in the wrong “The only way out of this is for Avery to post something herself to clean Ms. Harper’s mume..”
Mangas was frustrated Exil Madison had aced impulsively, he couldn’t just abanden her
I understand. i’ll talk to her.” Marcus had no cluce but to look for Avery
Il very didn’t cooperate and clean up this mess, the Harpers wouldn’t let her go that easily.
