Dragon Lord Crane Smith novel Chapter 36

As soon as Finley returned home, a young man and a young woman greeted him.

"Dad, where did you just go? It was a board meeting this morning, why did you just leave?"

Curtis Saunders, the eldest son, said anxiously.

Half an hour ago he had received a call saying that Finley had actually left a bunch of directors behind and had directly left the company building, as if he had lost his soul, so naturally he, as the eldest son, was a bit worried.

The same goes for his daughter, Mila Saunders.

"Dad, you seem to be in a very wrong state these days, since the collapse of the Duncan family, you're not even happy, instead, you're getting more and more worried, what's going on? Does it because of the Scott family?"

They had been sent out of town by Finley earlier, and they were afraid that the Duncan family would do anything to them, and now they were thrilled to get the news of the Duncan family's downfall.

But Finley, the business lord who had been wrestling with the Duncan family from the beginning, had recently lost his soul, and apart from the influence brought by the Scott family who was going to take over the Duncan family's position, they really couldn't think of a second reason.

"Alas, it is indeed because of the Scott family."

Finley admitted it straight down.

Curtis raised an eyebrow and said, "Dad, the Scott family is now so big and powerful that it is even more powerful than the Duncan family at its peak, so we should not fight them hard."

"Are you kidding me? If I don't compete with the Scott family, there will be other families pop up to take our place."

Finley shook his head in great distress, "You guys don't even understand what the collapse of the Duncan family means, it means that the entire Stone City and even the Q State will be reshuffled. Once we don't fight, I'm afraid that our family will be extinguished."

"What does this mean? There is something behind the fall of the Duncan family?"

Curtis was indeed a man of talent and sensed something different in his father's words.

"Dad, it wasn't the Scott family called you over?"

Mila froze for a moment.

Finley nodded slightly and continued, "The person who just called me over is a big shot named Crane Smith, and is sort of my boss."

"What!"

The words startled both the siblings.

Although the Duncan family had been overthrown and the Scott family had risen to the top, the Saunders family was still a behemoth in Stone City, and who dared to underestimate it?

But now that Finley had actually said that there was another one behind this, their father's boss, it was naturally unimaginable.

"Could this Crane Smith be the culprit who brought down the Duncan family?"

"Sort of, but not really."

Finley said, "It's true that Mr. Smith brought down the Duncan family, but in his eyes the Duncan family is nothing more than an insignificant mole, and the same goes for us, the Saunders family and the Scott family."

"Earlier, Boss had approached me, asking me to annex the Duncan family's estate to open the way for his plans in Stone City and even Q State Prefecture, but the Scott family was so fast before I made a move."

"Boss just approached me about this, he wants me to bring down and annex the Duncan family and the Scott family as soon as possible."

"......"

The siblings looked at each other, both seeing the meaning in the other's eyes.

It's crazy, absolutely crazy!

Even the previous Scott family was definitely someone the Saunders family needed to be careful, not to mention the Scott family that was more than twice as strong as the Duncan family at its peak after annexing most of the Duncan family's assets.

Trying to annex such a behemoth was like a leopard trying to swallow a fierce tiger, and the one who would die in the end would definitely be the leopard!

"Dad, we can't get involved in this, we'll quit and let them find another family!"

Mila was the first to speak.
