“Inspector Wade, can you give us any hints?” Russell asked cautiously, “We genuinely have no idea who we’ve offended, to what big shot!”
Wade snorted coldly, “I’ve already given you enough hints. Don’t push your luck any further. You brought this upon yourselves.”
Quentin’s status was so high that even in the entire entire, his identity was confidential. He dared not easily disclose it to them.
This was a serious crime punishable by death!
If the Pittman family’s people dared to offend him again, they would simply have to await their doom. He had no obligation to save them. By this point, he had done all he could.
Seeing Wade’s silence, the faces of the Pittman family turned ugly, all frantically pondering on who this so-called big shot could be!
First to be ruled out: Quentin.
This waste was nothing without the Holland family. What use was he?
Could it be one of Charlotte’s other suitors? After all, Charlotte was a widely known beauty, and those scions and tycoons from prestigious families surely admired her.
So, it was highly likely to be one of those scions from a prestigious family…
The Pittman family members were thrown into prison, where they were kept for several days, throwing the entire Pittman family into chaos.
At the same time, many cooperating businesses began to cancel their partnerships with the Pittman family, severing all ties and forcing the Pittman family into a deadlock.
In no time, the Pittman family found themselves in dire straits, with their financial chains breaking, partners canceling contracts, downstream businesses returning goods, and creditors pressing for repayment, all swarming in at once…
The Pittman family’s company was on the verge of collapse, left as nothing more than an empty shell in just a few days. Many members within the company felt a sense of impending doom!
And those of the Pittman family in prison were even more terrified. These events had occurred so suddenly, at such a crucial time; it couldn’t possibly be a coincidence!
The only possibility was that someone was scheming against them, plotting to bring down the Pittman family!
Could it be the mysterious big shot standing up for Charlotte?
Russell seemed to age several years in a moment, losing all vigor and spirit. Was the very foundation he had toiled to build the Pittman family going to end up like this?
He couldn’t accept it!
But what could he do? The power they were up against was completely beyond anything the Pittman family could withstand.
Once they were out, they had to find this big shot as soon as possible and plead for mercy. The most crucial thing was to start with Charlotte.
Since the other party was standing up for Charlotte, they would surely listen to her.
Russell pondered.
Several days passed in the blink of an eye. For them, these days were simply agonizing. After living a life of luxury for years, they had never endured such suffering.
“Damn it, it’s all because of that jinx, Charlotte,” Nikolas gritted his teeth.
“Exactly! That wretched woman!” Georgia was even more resentful. The prison life over the last few days had left her visibly haggard. “It’s all her fault, causing our Pittman family to endure such a calamity!”
“Enough!” Russell’s face darkened. “We can settle these scores later! Right now, Charlotte is still useful to us; after all, we need to ask her for help currently.”
They might hate her, but at the moment, they did indeed need Charlotte!
They had to grit their teeth and go to her!
Just as they left the police station, they were met by a small group of Pittman family members waiting outside. Seeing Russell and the others come out, they immediately burst into tears…
“Master! You’ve finally come out. We’ve been waiting for you, suffering so much!” Russell waved them off and asked urgently, “What’s the situation with the Pittman family now?”
“The Pittman family’s company has been seized; the Pittman family mansion has also been temporarily sealed off. We’ve all been kicked out…”
At this news, Russell’s head spun, and the world swirled around him. He almost fainted on the spot!
The others nearly stumbled as well!
They knew the Pittman family was in a very dangerous position at the moment, but they hadn’t expected things to be this severe. In a matter of a few days, the Pittman family was completely defeated…
Russell’s blood pressure surged, and he fainted on the spot, collapsing to the ground!
“Father-”
“Grandfather-”
“Master-”
Everyone was alarmed, rushing to help him up…
