Present
"After the Yan Family was destroyed , Zhang Family right away took over all the business establishments it owned."
Veronica raised an eyebrow. She was comfortably sitting on her swivel chair listening to Zero's report.
"Zhang Family, huh," an evil glint passed in her eyes.
"Yes lady. Zhang Family was the family of origin of the Yan matriarch, Cristina Zhang. Although the Yans were destroyed and she and the patriarch Norverto Yan along with first family branch members suddenly vanished and at the same time, their businesses plummeted, the Co's suddenly emerged from its low profile status and saved the business establishment from total destruction."
"Who was the current patriarch of the family?"
"The eldest son of the previous patriarch, lady. Arthur Zhang, Cristina Zhang's older brother." "Did you find the rest of the family branch of the Yan Family?"
"Yes lady. Although the second and third branch families changed their family name to Lopez, I was able to still locate them. The fourth and the rest were against that idea and decided to move to the rural areas and live ordinary lives."
Veronica languidly tapped her long, sophisticated nails on her Edwardian walnut antique desk. The woman is a big fan of wood antiques. From her British Chesterfield swivel chair to her filing cabinets.
Although a lover of antiques, Veronica also is fond of a minimalism and warm ambiance so she had her office painted with an all white from the roof to the wall which she complimented with white oak hardwood flooring. "Were you able to get information?"
"It's still the same information that we already have, lady. That the Yan's first branch family just vanished like a smoke and the force who was behind is so powerful and strong that no media outlets even reported about it. Although it created noise from the people of City I but considering Norverto Yan's reputation with public governance, the people moved on with the thought that they're better off that family. It's also the same with high society. The disappearance of the Yan family's first branch created buzzes for a few days but eventually, elites shrugged off their shoulders about it."
"Click", Veronica clicked her tongue, "As expected from the unbothered elites." She said with a smile, "Or should I say, voracious high society."
