Chapter 426

'Luke bribed someone?'

It was hard for Leia to imagine how the gentle, proud man had bribed someone,

but it was pretty shocking news to her.

Holding her breath, she continued to eavesdrop on her adoptive father's conversation with his secretary.

"Last month, Municipal Party Committee Secretary Mr. Schmidt was detained in connection with a large corruption case. In mitigation of his crime, he gave a clear account of who was involved and the inside story of how he had taken bribes in previous years. Surprisingly, one of the men involved was Luke Crawford... He's the biggest rising star in A City who contributed greatly to A City's economic development...

"Mr. Norman, this is evidence of Luke's bribery. Mr. Schmidt was a cautious and defensive man by nature, and he secretly videotaped and preserved evidence of almost everyone who had bribed him. Mr. Norman, what do you suggest we do?"

If the bribe was paid by an ordinary company executive or senior official, they could simply follow the law. However, it would not be easy to handle if Luke paid the bribe.

That man controlled nearly two-thirds of A City's economy and had a substantial influence in A City.

Once something happened to him, the whole stock market would be in turmoil. Not only A City's economy would be affected, but foreign investors would dare not invest in A City. The ensuing crisis might be too much to handle.

What Leia heard next was the sound of documents being leafed through.

Jack's mellow voice slowly rang out, as if he had been considering his words for a long time. "We can't touch Luke for the time being. This is serious. Let me think about it first. We'll have to report it if it's absolutely necessary."

Jack shook his head, feeling a little disappointed.

There was no doubt that Jack extremely admired the young Luke.

Luke had both courage and ability. He had a unique vision for the development of business, and he was also fearlessly aggressive. That was how he had developed T Corporation from a small company on the verge of bankruptcy into a large multinational conglomerate in just a few years.
