Chapter 90 Madame Willis
Morgan repeated the offensive words that Otto had just said, clearly angry. Otto was so scared that he stuttered, “Mr. … Mr. Barker, I didn’t know you were this guy… Oh no, Mr. Willis’s friend!”
“Mr. Gallagher, here’s some information for you to look at,” Morgan said nonchalantly as he tossed a few papers in front of Otto.
Miranda looked at Morgan and his family with a look of surprise in her beautiful eyes. She couldn’t believe that Lachlan’s friend was actually the chairman of the Banking Supervision Commission! This was too shocking or rather too exciting?
Kayden’s face changed several times before hesitantly reaching out his hand towards Morgan and saying, “Mr. Barker, hello. I am Kayden Lloyd, Isa Austin’s personal lawyer from the capital.”
Morgan sat expressionless next to Lachlan and ignored Kayden’s extended hand, “I am Mr. Willis’s friend!” The meaning could not have been clearer: I don’t care who you are; all I know is that I’m Mr. Willis’s friend!
Morgan and his wife naturally thought about what Lachlan and Vincent had worried about earlier – if someone wanted to harm Liam then it wasn’t over yet; if something else happened later on they would definitely come looking for Lachlan.
Now Morgan and his wife didn’t believe in any miracle doctors but only believed in Lachlan! So even if it meant standing firmly by Lachlan’s side for their son’s safety they would do so without hesitation.
Kayden froze with his hand still hanging awkwardly in mid-air while wearing an embarrassed expression on his face.
In the end, he reluctantly put it away, his face burning with embarrassment and frustration.
But compared to Kayden’s awkwardness and frustration, Otto’s expression was even more unpleasant.
After reading those papers, his eyes were filled with fear and panic.
“Mr. … Mr. Barker! These… these are not real! I… I didn’t do it!” Otto’s voice trembled as he spoke.
These materials were actually records of him using his position in the bank to gain personal benefits over the years.
Seeing this, Otto felt like a noose had already been tied around his neck.
“Hehe, these can be true or false! It all depends on how you choose!” Morgan said nonchalantly.
Everyone sought personal gain; it just depended on whether they were discreet about it!
As soon as he finished speaking, Otto knelt down in front of Lachlan with a thud and said anxiously, “Mr. Willis, I promise to unfreeze Lowe’s Pharmaceutical account today! No wait – right now! I’ll go back and handle the operation!”
Lachlan replied calmly, “That would be great trouble for you.”
“No no trouble at all! It’s my duty,” Otto shook his head repeatedly before looking at Morgan pleadingly. “Mr. Barker… what do you think?”
Morgan waved her hand impatiently. “Just go do it.”
“Yes, yes! Goodbye, Mr. Barker, Mr. Willis, Ms. Lowe…” Otto stood up and nodded deferentially before turning to leave the private room.
“Hey, cousin…” Kayden grabbed Otto’s arm and hesitated.
“The f*** you want? You nearly got me killed!” Otto shrugged off Kayden’s grip and cursed at him before storming out without looking back.
If he pissed off Morgan, not only will he lose his job but he’ll end up in jail too!
As the chairman of the banking regulatory commission, Morgan held all the evidence of his corrupt dealings in his hands. He had him by the balls!
“Kayden, did you record everything? Send it to your Mr. Austin!” Lachlan teased.
“You just wait and see!” Kayden’s face darkened as he left awkwardly.
Staying here would only make things worse. Was he really waiting for Lachlan and Miranda to invite him out for dinner?
Lachlan stood up as the other person left and thanked Morgan solemnly, nodding at Grace and Liam.
“It was just a small favor. Compared to your great kindness, it means nothing,” Morgan said.
He waved his hand. “Liam, haven’t you met Mr. Willis yet?”
Grace gave her son a signal with her eyes.
Liam quickly bowed to Lachlan and said, “Thank you for saving my life, Mr. Willis.”
At this moment, Miranda also stood up and greeted Morgan’s family.
“Mrs. Willis is truly stunningly beautiful. Mr. Willis, you’re so lucky to have her,” Morgan said with envy in his voice.
He shook hands with Miranda and joked back at his comment.
Hearing this conversation made Miranda blush slightly while Lachlan chuckled inwardly thinking that he had not even slept with Mrs. Willis yet!
At this moment, Miranda glanced at him a few times feeling strange about Morgan calling Mrs. Willis by that title which made it clear that the relationship between the Barker family and herself was centered around Lachlan rather than based on respect for either herself or the Lowe family.
Did this guy realize how many connections he had already established?
At this moment, Miranda felt both surprised and uneasy. She had a feeling that this man was slipping out of her control and could disappear from her world at any time. Could a fake marriage agreement really keep him bound to her? The beautiful CEO was feeling anxious and wanted to hold onto this man!
The dinner was enjoyable for all, and Lachlan showed concern by asking about the origin of Liam’s “corpse poison bracelet.” According to Liam, he received it as a gift from a woman he met while traveling in Hipding. From his words, one could sense Liam’s infatuation with this woman.
Lachlan didn’t ask any more questions but assured them that they could contact him anytime if needed. After dinner, Lachlan sent off Morgan’s family before returning to Lowe’s Pharmaceutical.
Upon arriving at the top floor of Lowe’s Pharmaceutical headquarters, the Lowe family members were already waiting in the CEO office. They were discussing eagerly with most wearing expressions anticipating drama.
“Have you heard? Miranda invited Mr. Gallagher for lunch today with that guy!”
“Really? How naive!”
“That guy thinks he can cotton him up by inviting him for lunch?”
“Haha! Did he even pay attention to him?”
“Will he kneel down and beg for mercy?” Harlow asked.
“That’s hard to say,” Eliza replied.
Their conversation sparked a discussion among the Lowe family, who began to mock Lachlan’s poor attempt at begging for forgiveness. They were filled with disdain and disgust towards him.
“They’re back! They’re back!” someone shouted.
Lachlan and Miranda emerged from the elevator, only to be met with mocking glances from everyone around them.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
