While sipping the coffee leisurely on the top floor of International Commerce Center, Leo was also reading Ryan’s personal information.
Then Justin knocked on the door and entered the office.
He was slowing down his steps deliberately as he was afraid that the sound of leather shoes hitting the floor might disturb the quietness in the office.
“Mr. Cohen, I’ve already informed the Mr. Hammond of Vesper Corporation. He will be up to see you in five minutes.” Justin said respectfully.
“Thanks.”
Leo then nodded and landed his sight on Ryan’s profile and squinted his eyes, “Is this Ryan Frank’s adopted son?”
“Right.”
Justin then glanced at Ryan’s photos and said seriously, “Frank was quite a playboy when he was young and had a lot of affairs. Ryan is just one of his many love children.”
“Many?”
Leo captured the key information in Justin’s words and asked, “Does Frank have many love children?”
Justin nodded and replied, “He has many sons and all of them are illegitimate children.”
Hearing Justin’s words, Leo put down the teacup and wondered, “Is this information accurate?”
“Absolutely true.”
Justin then continued, “Frank’s wife died early and he already had a lot of bastards back then, but his wife gave birth to a daughter before she passed away.”
“Daughter?”
Justin nodded seriously, “Frank has a daughter, but the father-daughter relationship is pretty bad. It’s said that his daughter loathes him and doesn’t live in The Perry Family all these years, so we don’t have a lot of information about her.”
“We only know that she doesn’t take Frank’s last name.”
“I see...”
Leo’s expression changed a bit. Maybe it was because that he was a first-time parent now, he was somewhat triggered when he heard that Frank’s daughter took her mother’s last name.
“Many of his love children had all joined the Perry Family over the years and became his helpers. Ryan is one of them.” Justin continued filling in the information.
“But Frank doesn’t have any fatherly feelings towards them and only treats them as minions who would do missions for him. At the bottom of his heart, he only cares about his daughter and wants her to be the master of the house when he is old which is annoying for those bastards.”
A trace of fierceness fled past Leo’s eyes when he heard Justin’s words and wondered if Frank had realized that he sowed the seed to bring down the whole family.
“Dig deeper.” Leo ordered.
He had a gut feeling that the Perry Family was an unstable factor.
Right after Justin left, a middle-aged male stranger knocked on the door again and entered.
He was a bit bald and was about five-foot-high. The suit looked a little baggy on him.
Leo scanned him and cracked a smile, “Are you Darcey?”
“Who are you?” Darcey examined Leo cautiously.
He had never heard who was owner of the International Commerce Center and didn’t know Leo at all.
“It’s not important.”
Leo smiled and glanced at Darcey, “The important thing is that I can help you to deal with your problems and can let you climb the social ladder.”
“My problems?”
Darcey sneered, “I’m the vice president of Vesper Cooperation and earn millions a year. What problems do I get?”
Leo was not irritated and just laughed, “Have you ever heard that weakness is also a fault?”
“What do you mean?”
Darcey’s eyes got sinister and was under pressure.
Leo then threw Darcey a pile of papers and asked, “You engineered the 361 Case three years ago single-handedly, right?”
Darcey’s face immediately changed, “Who the hell are you and what do you want?”
“I said that it’s irrelevant. The important thing is that I can clear your worries.”
Leo then continued indifferently, “Well, you meant to give suggestions to your boss and then can be promoted, but you didn’t expect that you would be framed. Not only were you kicked out of the board of directors, you also lost all your fortunes and reputations. Then you just wallowed in your sorrows all day and took solace in alcohol. After resting in your home for a while year, you joined Vesper Cooperation and became the vice president who really had no real power. If I were you, I would just kill myself.”
Darcey’s face turned pale and stood up frantically and pointed at Leo, but he failed to utter a word.
