Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 140 Hayden's Identity

Wally stood beside Ivor, looking like he had found his backer. He was no longer the sullen person from earlier.

Violeta walked towards the entrance and saw the middle-aged man standing there. She asked, "Are you from the Houle family?"

Wally proudly replied, "He's my uncle! Hahaha!"

Violeta shrugged and said nonchalantly, "I don't care if he's your uncle or your dad. Since he's here, he should hurry up and pay for the damages."

Wally was fuming at Violeta's dismissive attitude.

He turned to Ivor and said, "Uncle Ivor, you must investigate this store thoroughly. It might be operating without a license. The woman and the men inside attacked me while I was on the street. They must be a bunch of troublemakers with criminal records.

"They have the nerve to cause trouble here. You need to start a proper investigation into them."

As he spoke, Hayden and the others emerged from the store.

After receiving Wally's call, Ivor drove over immediately. Normally, he wouldn't bother with such trivial matters, but he had a meeting in the city anyway, so he decided to check it out. While looking around the store, he listened to Wally.

Originally, Ivor thought a small shop like this could be handled by anyone. But when he saw Hayden walking out of the shop, he froze.

The moment he saw Hayden, he instantly recognised who he was.

Could it be... the son of that man?

Ivor couldn't believe it and cut off Wally mid-sentence.
