Spencer's phone call arrived just as Ruby came out of the private restaurant. She looked down at the string of numbers jumping on the screen for a long time before answering the phone.
"Ruby, you must help me, you must help me." Spencer's panicked voice came through the phone.
The matter of tax evasion by the Harold Group was poked out by someone unknown.
And these years Spencer business is not clean, stepped on a lot of lines, now someone pursued, if not handled properly, the Harold Group will be finished.
"Dad, take it easy, speak slowly, what happened?" Ruby's eyes deepened as she soothed Spencer's emotions while walking outside.
"You go home right now, yes, make sure you bring Levi back with you, only he can help us now, make sure you bring him!" Spencer returned incoherently and hung up the phone in a hurry.
When she arrived at the intersection, there was already a car waiting, so Ruby pulled open the door and got into the car.
"Go to the Harold’s." Ruby leaned back, thought about it, and sent a message to Levi.
The car stopped when it arrived at the Harold's door. There was a lot of rubbish hanging on the big iron gate in front of the house and a pile of rotten leaves and rotten eggs on the ground, so it looked like someone had come in and made a mess.
Ruby waited at the door for a while before the door opened, she lifted her foot to go in, the butler looked like he was going to cry and told her the situation: "A group of people came during the day, saying they were the families of workers who had accidents at the construction site before ......"
Ruby nodded at his words, and just as she entered, Spencer hurriedly greeted her, subconsciously glancing behind her, but unfortunately, she didn't see Levi.
His face changed before he questioned Ruby with a sober face, "How come you're the only one who came back? Where is Levi? How come he didn't come with you? Didn't I tell you to get on good terms with him and make sure to please him? Now that something has happened to our family, why are you ......"
"Dad, what's going on? Is it true what the butler said? The workers at the site had an accident and you didn't pay compensation to them and even injured the family members who came to claim compensation?" Ruby came forward to support Spencer and interrupted his chatter.
Spencer's face look pale, and when he heard Ruby say this, he was even more anxious to defend himself: "Those people are insatiable! After the accident, I had already paid the compensation for the work injury, but they are still asking for more money! Don't believe those people out there who are talking nonsense! Also, if Levi asks you about this, you must be sure that we have already paid the compensation and they are the ones who are greedy, got it?"
Ruby raised her eyebrows slightly at his words, looking at Spencer's indignant look, those who didn't know would have thought he was telling the truth.
"Also, someone actually slandered us for tax evasion! We are good law-abiding citizens, how could we possibly do such a thing?" The more Spencer spoke, the angrier he became, and his spit almost sprayed Ruby's face.
"Ruby, you must help me, you are the only one who can help me." Spencer scolded for a while and grabbed Ruby's hand again.
He is now the only one left in the Harold family, and since the last scandal came out, Rita has not been home for days.
Susan was in the mental hospital, Spencer only found that at this time who he can rely on actually was Ruby, who he disliked at first.
"Dad, don't worry, I won't let the Harold Group go bankrupt." Ruby patted his hand, the corners of her lips hooked.
By now Levi had arrived, with the butler leading him in at the front.
The man wore a golden mask and exuded a chill, clearly sitting in a wheelchair and not threatening in any way, but inexplicably a chilling sensation.
Spencer swallowed hard, not even daring to look at Levi.
"Levi, you're here." Ruby put a bright smile on her face and got up to push the wheelchair.
