Chapter 72
Luke flinched in fear when he heard the caller’s question. As for what the identity of the caller was and
why he could make Luke flinch in fear, the answer was very obvious.
The caller was none other than the current head of the Erihal Group and Luke’s father, Ian Erihal!
“Are you deaf?!” Ian bellowed from the other end of the phone in rage.
“N-No sir!” Luke stuttered fearfully.
“I asked you a question! Answer me!” Ian bellowed in rage.
Luke flinched again in fear, but said nothing. He could not bring himself to answer his father’s question.
He dared not tell his father that he made use of his private bodyguards to take out a nobody. It wasn’t
because he severely injured Darius, but because he made use of his father’s special bodyguards even
after the harsh warning his father gave him.
Ian let out an audible sigh of frustration at the other end of the phone. Over thirty seconds passed
before Ian finally broke the silence. “I see you have refused to talk. No problem, I’ll find out the truth
myself!” Ian declared before disconnecting the call
Luke trembled from fear after Ian disconnected the phone call, but he forced himself to calm down.
His father Ian Erihal was the head of the Erihal Group, and had three sons, with him being the last son.
His two brothers were incredibly brilliant and were currently studying outside the country. Although
people refused to say it out loud, everybody knew that the two brothers were competing with each
other for the position of head of the Erihal Group, hence their equally brilliant records. As for Luke, no
one even considered him to be a threat.
Their thoughts were perfectly normal and on point. Even though he was younger and still just a
university student, not only was he bad at education, he was also involved in several controversial
cases. Not only that, he was also rude, arrogant and extremely condescending towards other members
or workers in the Erihal Group
Sadly no matter how angered or disgusted they were by Luke, there was nothing they could do. He
was the son of Ian Erihal after all. Not to mention his father covered for him a lor several times, and
used his influence to sweep his many crimes under the rug As such, Luke completely feared and
respected his father. He lonew fully well that if he were to lose the protection of his father, there would
be no chance of redemption for him.
It was why he forced himself to calm down. What made his father suddenly veil at him? Apart from
sending a member of his private bodyguards to secretly fall Darius he had not done anything out of the
ordinary. He even spent three days in the hospital and was only discharged recently. Luke fell deep into
his thoughts. No matter what conclusion he arrived at he couldn’t help but feel that he had committed a
grave mistake.
(Erihal Headquarters, Erihal Group)
Ian Erihal grasped his head with his two hands. There were dark circles under his eyes, showing how
much stress he had been since the last 24 hours. What started as a normal workday for him had turned
out to be his worst nightmare.
The Erihal Group was a wealthy conglomerate that was worth up to $200 billion, but they were now on
the verge of being bankrupt!
Their major investors and shareholders had pulled out from all their ongoing projects, making them lose
billions of dollars at once. Their stock price had also witnessed a free fall in the stock market, dropping
over 1,000% in the last 24 hours. 1
Ian knew that this misfortune was as a result of targeted action from a very powerful figure; otherwise
there was no way that a conglomerate worth over $200 billion will suddenly lose more than half of their
net worth in 24 hours!
As he was still lamenting the crisis his company was facing, his personal assistant rushed into his office
without knocking. Ian was about to reprimand him out of reflex, but with what was going on in the
company at the moment, he knew this wasn’t the time to be strict with the rules.
“Mr. Ian! The branches of our company in different countries have just witnessed several setbacks! All
the deals they signed and were close to signing are now being called off. Considering the amount of
money they’ve invested, they are hurting terribly from this move!” His assistant announced with a
panicked voice.
Just as he expected, his personal assistant brought more bad news for him. Ian slumped down to his
seat in his office. There was no doubt about it now. This was an attack by a figure that was way
powerful and scarier than the Erihal Group.
However Ian was very confused by the sudden attacks on his company. He had not offended anyone
that shouldn’t be offended recently, so why was he being targeted? The only people he had gotten into
a quarrel with were his business rivals, and they certainly did not have the power or capability to make
his company suddenly bankrupt. Who then was behind the attacks on his company?
He was still lost in his thoughts when his phone abruptly rang. He quickly answered the phone call and
placed it to his ear thinking that it was a call from the workers in his company regarding the huge mess
they were in, but was surprised when the caller spoke from the other end of the phone. “You have the
nerve to send your bodyguards after my grandson.” The caller accused. What grandson? Ian
questioned in confusion. He removed the phone from his ear and checked the caller ID, but nearly
dropped the phone in shock
James Reid?! Why was James Reid accusing him of attacking his grandson? Ian didn’t know why, but
he had a bad premonition when he heard his words. If James Reid was the one behind the attack on
the Erihal Group…
He shook his head. He dared not think about such a possibility. He quickly replied James, denying the
accusation placed against him.
“You’re sorely mistaken, Mr. Reid!” Ian yelled frantically. “I would be insane to do such a vile act. Please
reconsider!”
“I hope this will teach you a lesson not to take my mercy for granted.” And with that statement James
disconnected the call.
“Mr. Reid? Mr. Reid?!” Ian yelled, but there was no response from him.
Terrified, he ordered a background search on James Reid grandson; however nothing important came
up. It was to be expected. It was only the information the Reid consortium released to the media that
would be available. The only thing available to the public was his general details.
Yet that wasn’t enough to make Ian give up. After one hour of intense research, he finally understood
what happened. By the time he knew what happened, there was intense fury in his eyes. It was so
intense that his assistant shivered in fear. 1
Ian turned over the huge mahogany desk in his office before yelling at the top of his voice. “Luke Erihal
you son of a b*tch!”
