Chapter 307
At 7.00 pm, it was about to be dark.
The students in the buffet restaurant on the second floor had already eaten their fill. All of them rubbed their bellies and left happily while showing off on Facebook.
Elwood’s face was also dark. He clenched his fists and walked out of the restaurant like an offended gorilla. He was filled with anger.
He knew it. He didn’t know Oswald and wasn’t familiar with Gideon, let alone the Pittman family. He was wondering why they’d suddenly invited him to a meal. It turned out they wanted him to find an excuse to expel Athena.
Of course, he did not believe that Athena was such a person!
Therefore, he found an excuse to hide in the bathroom during the meal and secretly sent a message to Athena. He told her what had happened at the dining table and asked her what was going on.
Athena briefly explained what had happened and sent him a surveillance video.
After watching it, Elwood was pissed off. He didn’t expect that the Pittman family, a family of scholars, would slander Athena and her six–year–old sister so openly. They even crossed provinces and collaborated with local officials and school leaders to take revenge on Athena.
The more Elwood thought about it, the angrier he became. He refused to be associated with this trash.
Hence, Elwood came out of the bathroom and said coldly, “I believe in Athena. I definitely won’t frame my student.” Then he left angrily, not giving the people at the table any face.
However, he knew that the Pittman family and the school leaders wouldn’t stop just because he refused to join them. The more he thought about it, the angrier Elwood became. At the same time, his worry for Athena also
grew.
Hence, he took out his phone and angrily called the principal. “Hello, this is Elwood. Gideon and Oswald helped others slander our talent Athena for their personal interests. They even want to force me to expel her. I can’t take it anymore. I hereby report to you! Please pay attention to this matter and investigate the whole story. We must protect Athena from harm.”

When the principal heard this, he immediately became furious. Really? Where are you? Come over right away. I’ll look into this matter tonight. We won’t let Athena be framed.”
As the principal of a famous university, Lucian Fenwick’s rank was even higher than Oswald’s. If he reported Oswald to the relevant departments of the country, Oswald would be in great trouble.
Elwood knew that Lucian was an upright man. He immediately said, “I’ll go over now.”
Lucian and Elwood were very busy that night.
Konnor and his wife were also very busy. After all, the Donovan family had too many people. It took time to ruin them one by one.
After having a meal with Gideon and Oswald, the couple called their students, friends, and acquaintances in the entertainment Industry and asked them to help ban Zayn.
They thought that this was a small matter. However, to their surprise, after calling a dozen people, very few told them it was an easy task. The big shots all rejected them.“I’m sorry, I don’t have the ability to ban Zayn. Please find someone else.”
“Old Ruan, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but Zayn has a backer. I don’t know what his backers are exactly. Luna and

Samira are two of them. How can I dare to deal with him when I don’t know who is behind him?”

There was even a well–connected big shot who said, “Don’t mention this again. Otherwise, our friendship will end.”
Konnor and his wife could not understand. They thought Zayn was just the son of an ordinary restaurant owner. It didn’t make sense that the big shots in the industry were so afraid of him. They thought maybe those people didn’t want to do them a favor because they were old and were about to retire.

“Humans are too realistic!” They sighed. “We still have a few years until retirement. We still have power in our hands. I don’t believe they won’t come to us for help.
“Even if we retire, we have son and daughter–in–law, as well as a large number of students and connections. Aren’t they afraid of offending us?
At this moment, Louis was reporting to Matthew about how the Pittman family had suppressed the Donovan family.
Originally, no matter how bad the conflict between Josie and Lola was, it was just a matter between children. It was not appropriate to escalate it into an adult grudge. Louis didn’t plan to ask about this matter. Yet he noticed that the Pittman family had gone too far. They were abusing their connections to bully the Donovan family. He was really angry.
So Louis complained it to Matthew.
Matthew’s gaze was cold and murderous.
After Louis finished speaking, Matthew stood up and kicked over the heavy wooden chair. He said coldly, “How dare they bully the Donovan family!
“Is the Donovan family a pushover to them?
“Do they think I’m dead?
“They need some pain to learn their lesson.”
After cursing, Matthew picked up his phone and made a call. “Mr. Kensington, I have something to report to you.
“The granddaughter of Alberto, Minister of Vredo City scolded and kicked my relative’s child. She even said that her grandfather would teach my relative a lesson.”
“I’m very angry. I really want to deal with Alberto personally, but he’s your subordinate. I think I need to ask if you want to handle him or if can I do it?
“Of course, his granddaughter doesn’t know my relative’s background, and I don’t intend to let Alberto know…
“Thank you, Mr. Kensington. As long as he doesn’t interfere in the children’s fight, I won’t interfere either.”
After ending the call, Matthew made another call. “Investigate what kind of investments the Pittman family has in the entertainment industry. Ask those companies to kick out the Pittman family’s shares and funds. Then, find out who in the industry is planning to help the Pittman family block Zayn. Handle them too…
“And, the Pittman family got a fake mental illness diagnosis for their granddaughter in Vredo City. Find out which psychiatrist wrote this diagnosis and end his career…”
Louis did not even dare to breathe loudly.
After Adele was handled, Matthew became increasingly cold and deep. On the other hand, he also became prone to anger and ruthlessness.
