Chapter 160
Aaron slumped into his chair, exhausted. How did things come to this? The Lucas family held considerable power over the city. They were known as local powerhouses.
Now, his son was behind bars, Lucas Corporation's share price was plummeting, and their shareholders were even underselling their shares. Before they knew it, Lucas Corporation could not even bear the Lucas family name anymore.
When did it all start going downhill? After giving it some thought, Aaron realized that it all started after his son married Luna!
He suddenly got the idea that Luna must have brought bad luck to the Lucas family. She even knocked his son unconscious!
Aaron took a deep breath and calmed his frustration. As much as he wanted to blame the Quinns, it was not the time to fall out with them yet...
Aaron called Zachary.
"Hello, Mr. Quinn?"
Aaron suppressed his emotions, trying to sound natural.
Zachary did not notice anything unusual in his voice, but he did not sound happy to hear from him. "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Quinn, Lucas Corporation has encountered a small problem. Could you please use your connections to get Timothy out of jail? I have a lot on my plate right now, so I really need your help."
Zachary furrowed his brows and snorted. "Do you really expect me to help you bail out that bastard after you sent my daughter to the mental hospital? Forget about it!"
When Luna was sent to the mental hospital, Melanie told her husband about it.
They were going to take it up with the Lucas family, but the Lucas family had offered the Quinns many benefits and even promised them business advantages. Thus, Zachary decided to turn a blind eye to it.
Of course, Melanie could not let it slide. Why should her daughter be imprisoned in a mental hospital when she was perfectly normal? She made a big fuss about it at home, but Zachary silenced her.
However, that was all before Lucas Corporation got into deep shit. Of course, Zachary had heard all about it. He even found out the reason Timothy was detained.
Now that the Lucases could not give him the benefits they promised, why would he care about Timothy? His top priority right now was to get Luna out of the mental hospital.
His beautiful daughter had been the apple of his eye ever since she was born. After she married into the Lucas family, not only did she have to endure being mistreated, but she was even sent to a mental hospital.
With his daughter's outstanding qualities and lovely appearance, she would be able to find a wealthy and accomplished husband even if she divorced Timothy. It was just that her second husband might not come from such a prestigious background...
"Mr. Quinn, how can you say that? We're in-laws, and we're family. We're all in the same boat here. If they're after Timothy, what makes you think your daughter is safe?"
Aaron's words sent chills down Zachary's spine. He was right. The person Timothy offended was none other than the CEO of Leon Corporation, Matthew. There was no way Matthew would spare Luna.
However, Zachary had to really think this through.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
After all, his other daughter was married to Matthew...
