In Chase's office.
Chase and Chloe stared at each other.
A minute had passed.
"Let's cut to the chase. Don't beat around the bush, Chase said while peeling a tiny orange.
Chloe took the orange peel and threw it into her own cup. She said coldly, "You've signed the contract with the Song family. Are you playing favoritism?"
Chase nodded. "Yes, you're correct Favoritism."
Chloe was stunned. She didn't expect Chase to be so straightforward. He did not even think of an excuse to defend himself.
"Do you want to help the Song family?" Chloe asked again.
But this time, Chase shook his head and showed a menacing smirk. That's incorrect.
I am going to make the Song family perish!"
Chloe had a headache. This little b*stard always had a totally different thinking logics compared to other normal people!
"It's time for the Song family to change,"Chase uttered and shut his eyes.
His words made Chloe wordless for a long time.
She didn't know what Chase meant.
After a while, he opened his eyes again. His eyes at this moment were sparkling, like two pools of water.
"Do we receive any proposal from companies intereste in investing funds in us recently?" Chase asked.
Chloe immediately replied, "Yes, there are a lot of them. After all, we have the stock that has the most potential in Golden City now. It is only natural for these companies to show their interest in investing in us. Wh do you ask?"
Chase did not answer her, instead, he asked another question. "Which, among them, is the strongest yet also the most despicable?"
Chloe was blown away by Chase's question.
This little bestard always threw out all kind of strange questions!
However, when she saw that Chase's confident eyes, she immediately suppressed her dissatisfaction. She knew Chase must have something up his sleeve. She continued, "It's the Chen's. Their family company is called the North Wind Fund. Baxter Chen is the only son of the Chen family. He is a cunning and infamous playboy in Golden City. But to be honest, he's very smart."
"Help me arrange an appointment with him,"Chase ordered.
Chloe squinted her eyes while looking at Chase before she went out to make a phone call.
After a while, she came back and said, "Ten o'clock tonight at North Wind Bar. It's a bar under their family. You'll meet him in the VIP room No.888."
Chase nodded. At this time, his phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and found that it was Madison.
Chase felt he was in a dilemma.
Chloe was about to go out of the room, but she was intrigued when she saw Chase scratching his head. She wondered who could make this little b*stard act like this. This person must be a god sent from heaven.
At this moment, Madison turned around and dialed Chase's number. After he picked up the call, Madison looked at Bella.
She was so good at playing with fire.
"Hello, is this the boss of the Helping Hands Medical Center? I'm Madison, Madison mumbled softly and flirtatiously while gazing at Bella provocatively.
Bella looked at her puzzledly when she sensed the jealousy in Madison.
When Chase heard Madison's voice, he knew that this little troublemaker was going to make his life difficult again. He asked helplessly, "What's wrong?"
"Sir, I really admire you. Besides, I'm very grateful to you too. Would you come with me my together." Her voice had a kittenish quality.
"I don't think that's necessary. I'm happy to help. Chase's instinct told him that something was off.
"Hmph! Are you going to ditch me now that we have signed the contract? Believe it or not, I'll tell others..." Madison threatened with coquetry.
Chase was at his wits' end. He felt so vulnerable now that Madison had known his identity. It seemed that he had no choice but to fulfill Madison's request.
"Don't do that, Chase warned. "Sigh. Forget it. Nine o'clock tonight. Come to North Wind Bar, I've booked a private room Chase thought that since he was going to the bar,he might as well have a serious talk with Madison.
Otherwise, judging on Madison's perseverance, she was not going to let him go.
"Oh, you're so bad! You have even booked a room! Alright, alright, I'll be there on time.
See you tonight!" Madison made a 'muacks'sound before she hung up.
Bella was speechless. "Madison, is this some sort of love scammer?
Are you sure you have met the owner of the Helping Hands Medical Center? Why do I feel that you are..."
Madison giggled cheekily and held Bella's arm. "Hehe, Bella, I'll go and have some fun tonight. Don't worry. I know where to set the boundary. But, I hope that you won't get jealous of me."
T'm not jealous at all. Chase treats me well."Bella rolled her eyes at her.
Madison felt so proud of herself in her heart.
He treated you well, huh? Hmph, so well that he was meeting up with his sister-in-law secretly.
Chase and Madison met at the entrance of the bar.
Madison came over to cling on Chase's hand shamelessly.
Chase did not have any idea of how he should react. He pushed her hand away carefully and said, "Let's go. I'll only give you an hour.
I have something important to do tonight."
Madison pouted and mumbled with dissatisfaction, "Hmph, I can't believe that you have to work even when you're out at a bar. You're really no fun."
However, in actual fact, Madison was delighted to be able to meet Chase out here.
This stoic man had finally come out of his shell to have fun in a bar.
She didn't have any intention to seduce her own brother-in-law. But, she was really happy to see Chase here.
The two of them were in a private room.Madison was overjoyed and had been persuading Chase to drink with her.
After all, everyone in the Song family had to be respectful to her now that she had gotten the contract with the Helping Hands Medical Center.
Besides, she had such a mighty brother-in law backing her up. She did not have anything to worry about.
Madison acted if she could really drink. However, the reality was always cruel.
She did not take liquor well.
It took her only half an hour before her face turned pale. She then went to the washroom to Vomit.
When she came out of the washroom, she could not even walk straight.
Her phone rang. She used her last bit of alertness to glimpse at her phone screen. It was Bella.
She waved the phone in front of Chase and then stumbled out of the room to answer the phone.
Chase waited for about five minutes but Madison never returned. He left the room to look for her.
He then heard a commotion not far away.
His face turned solemn and he quickly ran over.
Madison was surrounded by several men.
One of them had long hair. His name was Baxter. He teased Madison, "Hey young lady,isn't it boring to drink alone? Shall we share a few glasses together?"
"Get out of my way!" With a stumble,Madison slapped Baxter in the face.
Baxter's expression changed right away.
"D*mn! You little b*tch! It's your honor to have me talk to you! Do you know that you're currently in my territory? I own this bar!
There is no one in Golden City who doesn't respect me! You're digging your own grave!
Seize her now!" Baxter demanded with a ferocious look in his eyes.
Baxter's men were just about to catch Madison.
At this time, a man rushed out all of a sudden!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" He gave them three kicks.
Immediately, Baxter's three men were flung away by Chase's kick.
Baxter became sober right away and roared angrily, "D*mn it! Are you trying to play hero to rescue this damsel-in-distress? Don't you know that I own this place? I'm so gonna kill you!"
When Madison saw Chase in front of her,she plunged into his arms and burst into tears instantly. "Chase, they are trying to hurt me!"
Chase pulled Madison behind him, his face as cold as frost.
Baxter pointed at Chase again and cursed,"F*ck! Do you know who I am?! I am Baxter Chen. Nobody in Golden City dares-"
"Get out of our way!" Chase interjected with these five words coldly before he grasped Baxter's finger that was pointing at them.
He concentrated all his strength in his fist.
And with a crack, Baxter's finger was fractured!
