Chapter 353: Cooperating with Madi is to oppose the Horton family
"What did you say? Did you find out who did it?"
"What is the other party's purpose?"
Wyatt, who had just returned to the company after exchanging information with Deborah, still had something given to him by the other party in his suit pocket. He listened to the assistant's report with a gloomy face and asked in disbelief.
"I didn't find any information...the other party hid it very well..."
"It's unclear at the moment. The company's secrets have not been stolen. They're not here for this..."
After the assistant finished his report, he subconsciously moved to the side and skillfully dodged the things thrown by Wyatt.
"Click——"
The glass fell to the ground behind him with a crisp cracking sound, and the shattered pieces broke onto the ground.
The loud noise seemed to calm Wyatt down for a few seconds. He ordered them to investigate the result quickly and waved his hand to tell him to get out quickly.
The assistant walked quickly, not daring to stop at all, for fear that Wyatt might be in a bad mood and use him as a scapegoat.
After all, there are more than a dozen predecessors in front of him, and now almost all of them are missing, and he doesn't want to repeat the same mistake.
So every day I have to struggle to survive and make compromises.
Wyatt took out the USB flash drive from his pocket, played with it in his hand for a few seconds, and just as he was about to insert it into the computer, the huge computer screen suddenly went black and a line of text appeared.
【A gift for you——Do you like it? 】
Wyatt looked at the string of words that appeared on the screen, clenched his fingers into fists so hard that the bones in his hands turned white.
The other party appeared naked on his computer, which was a slap in his face.
As for the gift? What gift? He thought about it several times in his mind, and the only thing he could think of was the cyber attack just now.
Without waiting for Wyatt's response, another string of text appeared on his screen.
[But there is more than one gift prepared for you, let's wait and see. ]
Wyatt stared at the text on the screen, feeling cold all over. He suspected all the suspicious people in his mind, but he still couldn't come up with an answer.
The assistant knocked on the door impatiently and walked in. "We were attacked again. This time the other party left a signature."
Wylat quickly stood up and walked over. "Who is it?"
The assistant met his angry eyes, swallowed, and responded to his question in a low voice.
"The other party's signature is...Houghton."
The anger on Wyatt's face suddenly stopped, and a look of disbelief emerged. The moment the assistant said this name, he knew that the other party had discovered it and had begun to retaliate against them.
I cursed Deborah hundreds of times in my heart. Didn't he say that he was acting secretly and no one would find out?
Damn idiot, it's all his fault!!
He put all the blame on Deborah to alleviate his fear of offending the Horton family.
"boom!"
Wyatt punched the door, leaving a big hole, and blood flowed from his hand when he pulled it back.
He no longer had the heart to look at the contents of the USB drive; his mind was now filled with thoughts on how to restore the relationship between the two families.
I keep imagining the future if the other party hasn't discovered it, but the fact is that the other party already knew it.
The other party was able to grasp so many things in a short period of time. Does that mean that he had already noticed something from the beginning and was just watching him being complacent like a clown?
He just felt a little absurd and scared.
He wanted to contact Deborah, but then he seemed to remember something. Since the other party knew everything he had done, he would never let Deborah go.
Contacting the other party now would be tantamount to giving himself a handle, so he gave up the idea.
Damn it! Why?
The Horton family's actions against their family were premeditated. In just two days, they had cut off several of his large collaborations and even spread the word that anyone who cooperated with him would be against the Horton family.
This almost undisguised falling out made the surrounding families keep their tails between their legs, fearing that they would be drawn into this vortex because they were too close to the Madi family. After all, no one wanted to mess with them.
The Horton family is not an easy family to deal with. I really don’t know what the Madi family is thinking.
"That Wyatt kid is crazy. He has to provoke the Horton family."
"Their family has been badly damaged on both sides, and it will be hard to get back to their peak in more than a decade."
“Do you think the Horton family will let him go so easily?”
“Can the anger of the Horton family be appeased so easily?”
"Have you forgotten everything that happened decades ago?"
"..."
Wyatt was busy dealing with the company's affairs at this time. Troubles came one after another and the performance was declining. He wanted to contact the Horton family, but no one was willing to be the matchmaker.
Not only that, the former head of the Marty family, Wyatt's father, beat him up severely after learning about this matter, and scolded him for being stupid or blind, how dare he dare to provoke the Horton family?
Are you dissatisfied with your life being too comfortable? Do you have to commit suicide?
Wyatt didn't dare to refute him, he just wanted to do something to prove to his father that he was not mediocre, and now it seemed that he had messed up.
If not handled properly, their whole family will end up on the streets.
In the end, his father found someone he was familiar with and sent a begging signal to Ji Cheng, praying that the other party would forgive him this time. He contacted the other party several times, but the other party read the message but did not reply.
Just when they were about to lose hope, the other party agreed, which ignited the flame of hope in their hearts. They showed full sincerity and apologized to Ji Cheng.
It wasn't just Wyatt who was anxious as an ant on a hot pan at this moment, but also Lucius who was conspiring with him.
When the Horton family openly targeted the Madi family, he knew that something was wrong. The matter must have been discovered. He was very anxious and waited for the trial of the Horton family in fear all day long.
Before he waited for the Horton family, he waited for his own family first.
After the elders of the Luke family learned about this, they beat him up severely. At the same time, they were secretly glad that the Horton family did not explicitly target the Luke family openly.
This can be considered a blessing among misfortunes.
After successfully making the connection and getting a response from the other party, he went straight to Houghton Manor, brought generous gifts, and begged for the other party's forgiveness.
When Wyatt and Lucius met at Houghton Manor, both of them had a rare calmness on their faces, as if they had known that neither of them could escape.
Lucius cursed Wyatt in his heart. He shouldn't have believed this bastard. Now he was badly cheated.
——The Little Theatre of Thoughts
Wyatt: The clown is actually me? T^T
Lucius: Master Qingtang, I just participated for a while! Please let me go!
