Chapter 282
Samuel slammed his palms onto the desk with a dark expression.
“Dad, a brat by the name of Leon Wolf tricked me. He reported to the Wick Group and caused this loss to our company…” Brody explained the situation. He knew that Leon was just a helpless orphan and did not think that he would possess the influence to command Jenson, so Brody merely thought that his act of raising the products‘ prices had enraged the Wick Group and Jenson was merely doing what duty commanded.
“Who is Leon Wolf? Sullivan Enterprises has no beef with him, so why would he report us?” Samuel asked.
“He’s Marilyn’s ex–husband and he has a grudge toward me…” Brody said gingerly.
“Marilyn’s ex–husband? No wonder! I told you over and over again to marry a virtuous, innocent woman. You just wouldn’t listen and went to find yourself a married woman! Are you trying to give me a heart attack? “Samuel growled as he turned to glare at Marilyn in contempt and disgust.
The Manson Family was hardly a match for the Sullivan Family in terms of financial status; on top of that, Marilyn had been married before and was not a worthy match for Brody. Had she not been pregnant with Brody’s child, Samuel would have never agreed with their marriage.
Marilyn paled as bit down on her lower lip wordlessly.
She had thought that marrying into the Sullivan Family meant that she would be able to enjoy a much better life. Though it all seemed perfect in her imagination, reality struck her down in the end. Since the two families were hardly on the same level of power and status, she was looked down on in the Sullivan Family with no rights to speak, almost like the way Leon was treated back when Leon stayed in the Manson Family,
Marilyn slowly began to understand what Leon felt at the time and wondered if this was the gods‘ way of punishing her.
“Dad, what should we do now? Leon cost our company millions! Are we supposed to let this go?” Brody asked. He resented Leon and was desperate to get rid of Leon. However, he feared Leon for his strength and no longer had the courage to cross Leon after failing time after time.
“Of course, not! An eye for an eye! I’m going to make him pay for costing us millions!” Samuel said.
Though the cosmetic stores were not their main source of income, Samuel could not possibly tolerate Leon’s actions because he had declared war against the Sullivan Family. Once news of what happened got out, the Sullivans would be the laughing stock of all of Springfield City.
