Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388 

Edward smiled bitterly again. “When Diane terminated the contract with our company this morning, I knew something was wrong. Why would they terminate the contract with us when. the project is actually making profits? Now I know she must have known about it before us!” 

“Edward, what are you saying? Why are we going to be broke?” 

Dominic’s face looked sullen. He believed in his son and his ability. All these while, he had let Edward be in charge of the family business. Thus, he had never expected to hear this from Edward. 

Edward explained, “Dad, the Zelankos, the Longhorns, and Brookbourn Mansion are joining together to oppress us. They stop cooperating with us and add insult to injury. Our suppliers are demanding to pay them now. We don’t have enough cash at all!” 

Dominic felt like a slash of thunder had struck him. He was dumbstruck. This was a rare situation. It was not normal for those businesses to do this even when they were promised some benefits in return. 

“When did you offend these people? Why did you offend the Ballards, Zelankos, and the Longhorns?” 

Finally, Dominic asked that question as he glared at his son. He believed those families would never do such a thing if his son did not offend them. 

Edward was stunned too. “Dad, I don’t understand and I don’t know how I offended them. I scared the sh*t out of myself this evening when I found out. Immediately, I brought gifts and tried to pay them a visit. But they refused to see me!” 

“Then did you offend anyone recently?” 

Dominic was speechless. He just could not figure out why this happened. If this continued, their business would plunge. Not to mention, they would have to declare bankruptcy if they had insufficient cash flow. They could become paupers overnight. Not long ago, they had just expanded their business by building new factories and opening new retail shops. How were they going to survive this? 

Edward thought deeply and got an answer to that question. “Dad. There’s only one person that I offended lately. Severin! Diane’s husband. Other than him, I really didn’t offend anyone else! 

“That’s impossible! Can he have such a strong connection with those families that they are willing to help him?” 

Once again, Dominic was dumbstruck. 

He thought and said, “Come on. Let’s go and apologize to him now! Maybe he will forgive you and there could be still hope for our family!” 

Edward shook his head. “I’ll never apologize to him. Besides, maybe it’s not him. Besides, the Shanahans had made themselves very clear when they terminated their contract with us. We’re bringing insult to ourselves if we showed up at their doorsteps!” 

“Sigh. Then let’s go grab our cash and valuable items and hit the road before our debtors come. to find us. Maybe we can make a comeback if we go somewhere else with the money!” Dominic 

nking deeply. 

“Run? Dad, I-I can’t accept this!” Edward shook his head and had a hard time accepting hist 

faith. 

How could the young master of the Horsfield have to resort to running away one day? 

“Do you
