Chapter 1973

Meanwhile, at Southeast Astoria, Ian and Susan had arrived at the branch company of Hayes Corporation.

The riot there had escalated to an even serious level.

"Mr. Hayes, you're finally here! We have been waiting for you to help us rectify this mess."

The branch company's person in charge almost cried at the sight of Ian and Susan.

Ian found out that the Hayes Corporation branch at Southeast Astoria was facing the predicament whereby the place was previously under the Ti Ian s' reign, and they had been known to participate in illicit businesses such as casinos, nightclubs, and smuggling activities.

To summarize, all their operations were illegal.

For example, it was not that Hayes Corporation could not operate casinos. However, the Tilans would enable the underground organizations here to cheat the patrons and allow loan sharks to lend money to the gamblers at an exorbitant interest rate.

They were doing everything that Hayes Corporation would never do.

A Hayes Corporation casino would let the luck of the patrons decide their fate.

As a result, their policy had affected the interests of some of the stakeholders involved, which were locals whose influence was entrenched in the region for many years, and they would not let their wrath go unaccounted for.

Ian dared not squander another second and headed into the meeting room right away after listening to the brief report.

Susan could only head to the office, clutching the luggage that they brought along.
