Chapter 179

Chris was Ben's secret son.

Joshua's eyes were as dark as a moonless night. "He's got quite the reach, even from another country."

Nearby, Thomas stood, visibly tense, barely daring to breathe.

Joshua's voice was icy. "Since he's making his move, there's no need for me to hold back. I heard he's just snagged a major project overseas?"

Thomas nodded. "Yes, just recently. Over the years, Chris has expanded his influence to several neighboring countries. He's set up his own bases..."

Joshua's lips curled into a smirk. "Let's send him a little 'welcome' gift. Make sure that the project of his doesn't go forward."

Thomas responded promptly, "Understood."

"And was it Chris' crew who took out Sue?" Joshua asked.

"Yes," Thomas replied, his face serious. "It seems Sue was no longer useful to him, so he tied up loose ends."

Joshua's eyes narrowed, a sharp chill emanating from them. "Classic Chris."

He was used to blatantly disregarding the law, leaving a trail of bodies, and being utterly ruthless.

Joshua's expression hardened. "Since he's so idle, let's give him some work. Get in touch with Mills over there to help us deal with Chris. We can't let him keep that project."

"Yes, sir!"
