“What did you just say?” “I just got some calls, and all of our collaborators have canceled their orders with us!” Derek’s eyes widened, and he felt increasingly anxious. They had only just taken over, but they were running into such huge problems. The Langley Group had no employees and no orders. How were they supposed to run the company? How could they get any money from it? How were they going to explain themselves to Margot? While they felt lost and anxious, someone called them. “Derek, Christian, what’s going on?” Margot’s enraged voice came through from the other end of the phone. “We don’t know either…” Derek pulled a long face. Who knew that David and Simone had such a strong influence? “Enough talk! Come home now!” Margot said urgently. Derek and Christian did not understand what was going on, so they went back. Once they arrived in the living room, they found that everyone had a sour look on their faces. “Tell them.” Margot sighed. “Numerous Serpen
Chapter 128
Another two days passed. The atmosphere in the Langley family’s main villa was grim. The core family members gathered together, but they were all silent. The Langley family’s situation grew more dreadful day after day. Every single day, they suffered great losses. No one could remain calm anymore. Even the obstinate Margot felt shaken. Today, they had gathered together to come up with a solution. But most of them were silent right from the start. Finally, someone spoke to break the silence. “Grandma, should we ask David and his family to come back?” Christian asked tentatively. Margot’s face darkened. She had disowned David and his family. It had only been a few days since. If she called them back, she would be eating her own words. Her reputation and pride would suffer a blow, and she would be stuck in a morbid conundrum. But was there a better plan? Margot mulled over this for a while before she looked at Derek and Christian. “Why don’t you go and visit David
Chapter 129
Dustin was just a piece of trash from the Wyatt family, and he was insulting him. It felt horrible. But he could do nothing about it. Derek could only go back to the Langley family and pass on the message. “What? He wants me to go?” When Margot heard that, she was so furious that she shot to her feet. She slammed the cane so hard on the floor that it almost created a hole. “The trash from the Wyatt family is insulting us while he lives under David’s roof. Not only did he hit Christian once again, but he was also very aggressive! He’s so annoying!” Derek said angrily. Margot’s face darkened. She did not want to ask David to come back. First, she could not set aside her pride and do something like that. Second, she did not want to let Dustin have his way. “Mom, what will you do?” asked Derek and sighed. Everyone looked at Margot. Their entire family’s fate was in her hands. Margot’s face changed rapidly. In the end, her expression changed to one of resignation. “Every

David agreed to the Langley family’s request. He had always valued family ties. Since Margot had personally come over to apologize to him and even offered him to work at the Langley Group and Heavenly Will Bazaar, he was given respect and honor, so he was not going to refuse. Thus, David and his family returned to the Langley family and became a part of the family with the highest status. They had authority and respect. On that very same day, the Serpentine Gang members left the bazaar. The Rivenesco government official also sent word to let the Langley family’s businesses run again. Things were back on track. This made the Langley family even more certain that David and his family had a lot of influence and plenty of connections. They did not dare to treat them with disrespect anymore. That was what Dustin wanted. Honestly, he only spared them because David cared about his family so much. Otherwise, given Dustin’s nature, he would much rather destroy the main family entire
Chapter 131
Dustin pulled out a chair, sat down on it, and watched indifferently at Christian writhing around in pain. The agony of a broken leg was unbearable for most people, let alone for someone like Christian, who had been pampered and spoiled since childhood... When Christian fainted from the pain, Dustin heard hectic and hurried footsteps come from outside the restaurant. Another group of people stormed into the restaurant. Someone stepped on Christian’s hand, and it hurt him so much that he woke up screaming in pain. “What the hell?! You want a piece of me?! I’ll kill you!” he roared in rage. “Who’s this crazy b*stard? Is this a scam?” The people who had stormed in were all from the Zimmer family. When they heard Christian shouting in pain, they looked at him in hostility. The Zimmer family had been driven to a corner by the Wyatt family, and they had been searching everywhere for Dustin. When they finally discovered where he was, they immediately rushed over. Since they were
Chapter 132
When that thought sprang into his mind, he felt that everything finally made sense. ‘They say that this person is just a piece of trash from the Wyatt family. He’s supposed to be utterly useless and without a purpose. That’s why he was kicked out. But he doesn’t look like he’s useless at all! ‘How can someone who influences both the underground world and the law be considered useless?’ Christian started panicking because he was sent to kill Dustin. He broke out in a cold sweat and did not dare make a sound. While no one was paying attention, he dragged himself outside little by little. “Mr. Fox, my family is driven to a corner. You’re the only one who can save us now! Please help us this time!” Klein begged. “What happened to your family?” Dustin asked with a frown. “Our family was fighting the Wyatt family, and we were hoping to deal a heavy blow to them. We were just one step away from success, but suddenly, the Wyatt family received help. They suddenly became much stro
Chapter 133
At the Langley family’s main villa, everyone was waiting for news in the living room. “Has Christian not replied yet?” Margot asked Derek with a frown from where she sat. “No, Mom, not yet…” Derek glanced at his phone. “Don’t worry. Christian is very capable,” he said, “That piece of trash from the Wyatt family will be helpless if he doesn’t have the bodyguards the Wyatt family’s head left for him. I’m sure Christian will call with good news soon.”Margot nodded and looked at the members of the Langley family gathered there. “That guy is really annoying. Once we take care of him, all of you must keep your mouths shut. Don’t let David’s family catch wind of anything,” she said solemnly. Everyone nodded in understanding. “David and his family are riding high right now. The Langley family needs them to thrive. Let’s be patient for now, and when everything is stabilized and the Langley family has grown, we won’t have to care about their opinion anymore…” Margot’s voice was
Chapter 134
The Langley family thought that the police had arrived. One of them immediately got up to welcome them. Dustin did not make his Hell Guards stop that person. “Mr. Aquila!” When the person appeared at the doorway, he let out a shocked cry. The person who had come to the villa was not the police. It was the person that Dustin had almost beaten to death a few days ago. It was Devon Aquila. With his men, Devon stormed into the villa in fury. A few days ago, Devon had suffered greatly here. Not only had he failed to meet Simone but also had one of his arms broken in this place. As the second son of the prominent Aquila family, how could he just let that insult slide? After recuperating for a few days, he took his men to Rivenesco despite still being far from full recovery. When he got a lead on Dustin, he immediately rushed to the Langley family’s main villa. “Mr. Aquila, you got here right on time!” Margot looked overjoyed when she saw Devon here with so many people. “
