"Let's release these two footages to the public. It's time for us to do right by Elena Chase said.
Olivia nodded and immediately summoned someone to take care of it.
The rest of them had a serious look on their face. They had to admit that by releasing the footage, they would be able to restore both Elena's and Lunanica Media's reputation.
There was no particular reason for them to stop it.
They just wanted those who slandered Elena to send her an apology!
They would be able to put their movies back on the charts through Elena.
The strategy was amazing!
Lucas was so furious that his head nearly exploded in rage!
He didn't think the plan which took him so long to devise could be solved by Chase.
Feeling dispirited, he suddenly heard Chase say, "Mr. Zhang, is there anything else you want to say?"
Lucas's face became stiff.
What was he supposed to say?
Could he even say anything!
Each word which he uttered was met with rounds of attack from Chase Like hell he would talk again!
Lucas chuckled and said, "Thave nothing else to say, what I said earlier was for the sake of the company. I hope you don't misunderstand my motives, Director Lu "Well then, since it was for the company, then I won't reprimand you for it. However, if I ever sense you are doing something fishy again, I won't hesitate to take action. Chase warned Lucas raised his eyebrows. Although he maintained his composure, he was shaking inside. "What do you mean?"
"Oh, I don't mean anything. I just wanted to ask where the hundreds of millions yuan which belong to the company go, Chase blurted.
Olivia frowned!
Yes!
The hundreds of millions yuan that had gone disappeared!
The company initially still had cash flow in their accounts, but someone had channeled it into an ambiguous project!
And this person was Lucas!
It was this sum of money that almost destroyed the entire Lunanica Media!
Lucas's face turned pale. He defended himself, "How would I know?"
"Say you don't know anything shout it? Then do Rian and I inds "So you don't know anything about it? Then do Ryan and Lands know what happened to it!" Chase asked Ryan and Linda looked at each other. All they could do was to shake their heads.
Chase laughed, making the three of them shiver in fear.
"What was this brat trying to do?
Lucas was so scared that his heart nearly leaped out of his chest.
It was true that he was the one who embezzled the hundreds of millions of yuan, but he appointed Ryan and Linda to do it for him.
They had moved the money temporarily into a fund account for three days.
Their intentions were to completely drain the company in a way that Olivia wouldn't be able to recover from the crisis But who would've thought that Olivia and Chase would join forces and resurrect the company?
He had asked Ryan and Linda to recover the money a few days ago.
But for unknown reasons, the money was stuck in the fund account and couldn't be transferred back.
Great!
Chase was interrogating him in front of so many people. Lucas had become the target of their prosecution!
No way!
There was no way he would admit to it!
And there was no way Chase had any evidence against him!
At that moment, Chase asked, "Do you know why you can't transfer the money back?" The unexpected question made the three of them jump in their seats!
"Why can't it be transferred back? I don't know what you're talking about!" Lucas pretended to be puzzled.
Chase smiled. "Because I've frozen the money.
"What!" Even someone who was as cunning as Lucas couldn't hold back his surprise when Chase said this.
"Yes, I froze the money." Chase repeated, "As for how that happened, let me get someone to explain it to you."
As soon as Chase finished, a man walked into the room.
Someone immediately recognized the man, "Isn't this Baxter from North Wind Fund?"
The person who had just walked in was Baxter!
Baxter came in and greeted Chase respectfully. "This is how it happened. A few days ago, another sub-fund account of ours suddenly received a check from Linda and Ryan. The check. involved five hundred and sixty million yuan. Chase and I are friends, so I notified him straight away. He told me to freeze the money first, then return it today.
Baxter's words made Linda and Ryan speechless!
In case one needed a definition of what it was like to dig your own grave....
This was it!
The money had been moved around so much that it finally ended up at Chase's friend!
However, this wasn't Ryan or Linda's fault.
They had wanted to put it in their own private accounts but Lucas had called them dumb pigs for that.
It was because of Lucas that they made a fund account.
North Wind Fund had cooperated with the Helping Hands Medical Center for a while ago, and they were slowly making their way up to becoming the number one trust fund in Golden City.
Linda and Ryan had to find a reliable fund to transfer the money into. Hence, North Wind Fund would be their top choice.
What they never expected was that Baxter and Chase were actually good friends!
"Oh right, wasn't North Wind Fund one of the companies you sponsored some time ago?"
Olivia suddenly slapped her forehead as this thought flashed across her mind.
Chase simpered and nodded. "Yes."
Olivia suddenly looked at Chase with amazement.
The brat was pretty crafty!
His action of giving out the sponsorship rights had made many in the company despised him.
Yet now, he was actually using one of the companies he
sponsored to help to prove his innocence! Who would dare to curse Chase for giving out sponsorship rights again?
If Baxter didn't inform Chase, who knew what might've happened to the company's money?! "Linda! Ryan! How dare both of you to embezzle the company's money?!" The shareholders were incandescent.
Linda and Ryan were shocked, instinctively they turned to Lucas for help.
Olivia sneered. "Both of them are just pawns. Where would they get the power to do so? Mr. Zhang, would you care to explain?"
Lucas felt like his heart was shattering.
With this move. Chase had essentially pushed him to the edge of the plank!
"I have notified the Legal Department. Someone will come and take the three of them away. If you three cooperate with the inspection and nothing else goes wrong, you'll just have to stay in prison for a few years, Chase spoke lightly.
Linda cried out in sorrow, regretting everything she did.
At first, she thought she was finally going to have her revenge. It looked like she didn't even gain a dime from it!
Even worse, she was going to have to go to prison "Lucas, Ryan, both of you brought this on me! I'm going to kill you guys!" Baring her nails, she lashed out at Ryan's face.
Her nails drew across his face, causing Ryan to bleed. It made him boil with anger.
"You crazy woman! Do you want to die? If you hadn't saved me by coincidence and if you didn't say that you had pictures to bring Chase down, why would I work with you? Hell, I wouldn't have brought you to see Mr. Zhang!" Ryan gave Linda a hard kick.
Lucas just stood frozen at a side!
Those two good-for-nothing!
With just a few words, they had admitted to the crime!
There was no way Lucas would admit defeat.
Chase looked at the three of them with much amusement and shook his head. "Do the three of you really believe that all your encounters and plots against me are just a mere coincidence?"
