Chapter 195

The once splendid office was now marred with a gaping hole in the wall. The grand golden wooden desk worth 600 thousand dollars lay shattered on the floor.

Fabian was utterly at a loss for words. He had just managed to get the desk replaced, and now another hole needed fixing.

He contemplated asking Oliver about it but found the latter, along with Wayne and Simon, surprisingly content. Since the trio seemed unperturbed, he decided not to inquire further.

However, before he could say anything, Calista continued urgently, “Oliver, Uncle Frederick isn’t here to borrow money. It’s about Yancy! She’s in trouble!”

“Yancy?”

Oliver was dumbfounded and then remembered Yancy was Frederick’s daughter, a nine-year-old girl.

Although he detested Frederick, Yancy, his young cousin, was still
