Chapter 3427
In the evening, at the Bauer family’s manor.
Lights shone around the side hall.
Joseph comforted several important members of Flutwell’s business alliance before sending them off. Then, he
approached an exquisite calligraphy hanging on the wall.
A little neglect may breed great mischief!
Joseph upheld this principle with great seriousness—this was the main reason he was able to rise so quickly in just
a span of six years.
He had been planning for Flutwell’s new district for many years; this was a very important battle for him to win, all
for the sake of rising to power.
Yet… Not only did Harvey make a joke out of the entire event, but he also turned Joseph into the family’s biggest
joke.

This meant that Flutwell’s top district had instead
become the top cemetery for the wealthy.
Besides a few successful trades Joseph forced, ninety- nine percent of his property remained untouched.
After all, everyone was sure that the price of the houses would drop after the incident.
As long as the cemetery building was still standing, the rich and powerful would be scared away from the place.
None of them would choose to contend with such bad
luck.
After all, Flutwell was filled with houses. They didn’t have to buy them in the new district anyway.
Since the houses couldn’t be sold, Joseph and the
business alliance were forced into a corner.
In the afternoon, a few branch managers from different banks called to ask whether the loan could be repaid on
time.
Aside from that, the anxious business alliance got Joseph to withdraw their money.
After all, they had already spent quite a lot of money on the project.
Safe to say, the business alliance were completely stumped since the houses weren’t sold out.
That said, this wasn’t the worse part.
A few elders from the Bauer family called over to ask about the incident.
If Joseph had no plans to deal with the situation soon and fix the family’s reputation…
His position as a young master would be stripped away.
Joseph kept on a warm smile the entire afternoon,
properly dealing with the situation and keeping everyone calm.
But deep down, he knew he had completely humiliated
himself.
If he couldn’t kill Harvey and reclaim his name…
If he couldn’t get enough funds to get his money back…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe would definitely be reduced to a corpse on the side of the streets in just a few weeks‘ time.
Wealthy families have no affection, after all.
A man who couldn’t provide for the Bauer family would
surely be the first to get kicked out of the battle for the
throne.
Joseph’s expression worsened upon pondering the situation. He took a deep breath and remained silent for a long
time.
“That b*stard is just too vicious!”
“Young Master Bauer, Golden Palace sent word.”
Rapid footsteps could be heard from the entrance. Ruby could be seen wearing an anxious expression.
“The Law Enforcement said they won’t let Harvey get away with this.”
“That said, it’s not a good time for them to take action. They’ll do everything in their power once everything falls
into place!”
