Secret Admiration: Finding True Love After Prison

Chapter 739 He Has Been Abandoned

Dylan rarely visited Chandler’s place. He had long since stepped back from the family business, leaving the affairs of the Aniston family mostly unattended.

For him to show up in person meant something serious had happened.

Chandler wasn’t the least bit surprised to see him.

Dylan snapped, “For Meryl, you’re willing to go against the Aniston family? Do you have any idea who you’re messing with? The Powell family isn’t to be trifled with. How could you act so recklessly, Chandler? This isn’t like you.”

Dylan had only entrusted Galaxy Holdings Group to Chandler because of his steady and cautious nature. For the past two years, Chandler had never made a single misstep.

But last night, he had acted on his own accord and openly clashed with the Powell family.

If it had been a matter of fair competition, Dylan would’ve been okay with it.

But Chandler had deliberately disrupted the market–offeri sky–high wages to poach the Powell family’s construction

By morning, multiple Powell construction projects had ground to a halt due to a lack of workers.

As soon as the stock market opened, shares of several Powell–affiliated companies took a nosedive.

When Dylan caught wind of the situation, he was furious. Not only did this put them at a disadvantage in terms of public opinion, but morally, they had no leg to stand on.

Besides, the Powell family had never played clean in the past.

And as the saying goes–better to offend a gentleman than cross a scoundrel. Who knew what kind of underhanded tricks they might pull in retaliation?

But Chandler’s expression remained indifferent. His tone was just as cold. “This is my business. Stay out of it.”

Dylan’s face darkened. “What did you just say?”

Chandler didn’t bother answering. Instead, he turned to Walter and ordered, “See him out.”

“You-” Dylan was in utter disbelief.

“Haven’t you already stepped down? Haven’t you handed the Aniston family over to me?”

Chandler’s face remained impassive. “Since you’ve chosen to
