The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 363 Taking the Initiative to Strike

In a private room tucked in one corner of the elderly home, Lionel asked Saul, his face dark, There’s no one else here, so tell me. What on earth happened?”

“Dad! This happened…” Saul carefully gave his father an account of what had happened.

Right after he finished recounting, Lionel slapped him in the face.

“You bastard! Didn’t I remind you not to move too fast and that you should expand your businesses slowly? I also told you to make sure that our properties aren’t exposed, didn’t I?

‘But what happened now? Caspian came across them! If the Inspector General’s Office investigates us, we’re done for!” Lionel barked.

“I’ve already dealt with this, Dad. Eric shouldered all the blame instead of us,” Saul said, cradling his cheek that was tingling with pain.

Right after he finished speaking, he was slapped once again.

“Moron! Do you think everything will be settled after you make Eric the scapegoat? Would Caspian buy that? Would the Inspector General’s Office buy that?

“I’m Willow’s grandpa, but that means nothing! What will you do if the authorities want to investigate the family?” Lionel cursed.

Saul was stunned. He dared not say more, fearing his words would further fuel Lionel’s rage.

Noticing Saul’s silence, Lionel slapped him again.

“Idiot! Don’t you usually have a lot to say? Why are you as quiet as a mouse now,

huh?”

“I…” Saul was stunned. He looked helpless. He would be slapped whether he opened his mouth or kept silent, so what should he do?
