Chapter 37: Breaking News
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Drizzt smiled and asked, “Future niece-in-law, what do you mean by this?”
Drizzt suddenly found it interesting.
Sikal, who had been hiding at the side stage, watched Catherine slowly walk toward Kota.
She had always hoped that it was just her wild guess, or that she was just overthinking.
But at this moment, these thoughts that she did not want to believe to be true were slowly materializing.
Catherine stood beside Kota, holding his hand and smiling blissfully.
Then, she picked up the microphone, looked into Kota’s bright eyes and said, “Let me introduce you. This is my fiancé, Kota.”
“I knew it! She had been slept!”
“This is no longer a matter of honor. This is a f*cking cuckold for Heavenly Punishment.”
“How can you be a cuckold if you’re not married yet?”
“It doesn’t count for you, but for a wealthy family like Heavenly Punishment, it is.”
All the guests were whispering.
“Catherine! What are you doing?”
After hearing this, Moanke felt that the last of hope was lost.
“Grandfather, the one who can save Ying is not Heavenly Punishment. We will only live like dogs under the shadow of Heavenly Punishment.”
“Moreover… my happiness isn’t your bargaining chip.”
After hearing Catherine’s answer, Moanke closed his eyes.
Firstly, not that he had not thought of it. He knew that the marriage could help Ying tide over the difficulties. But in the days to come, he would have to obey the orders of Heavenly Punishment.
It was a pipe dream for him to think of starting it all over again with his advanced age.
As long as he could find Catherine a backer that no one dared to bully, he would have nothing to worry about in this life.
But second, he did not care about this granddaughter who had always been obedient since young.
Today was the first time that she had opposed him in public.
She could say such words and make surprising actions.
This proved that this granddaughter had already grown up.
Moanke said nothing more. He just shook his head and asked no more questions. After glancing at Kota, he hurriedly left the hall.
Let the young people solve their own problems.
Kota looked at Catherine, who was still very cold in front of him, and teased, “Why didn’t I see you so brave that night?”
Catherine knew what he was talking about. Her face was slightly red as she said, “Can’t you see that I’m acting? Didn’t you ask me to back you up?”
Kota looked at the wish list on Catherine’s head.
Name: Catherine
Wish list:
[1. Clean up the corporation and find out all the accomplices of Coster.]
[2. Since I’ve already said it, Kota is my man from now on.]
So, this woman had already fallen.
All the guests looked at the two, but they had other thoughts.
Catherine’s announcement undoubtedly pushed the Li family into a bottomless abyss.
Heavenly Punishment in New York and the Imperial Group in Washington would be in a tit for tat from now on.
Needless to say, Heavenly Punishment had an unrivaled foundation in New York. It had an insurmountable social status and a strong financial power.
Although Imperial Group of Washington was only heard of from Kota’s mouth, based on what they had witnessed today, Imperial Group seemed to be stronger than Heavenly Punishment in every aspect.
If these two corporations were to go against each other, it would definitely be a good show.
Once the war started, it was going to drag more forces into it.
Because of this, Ying, the one that started all this, would be famous in both Washington and New York.
The only one who would not lose out would be Moanke.
He got out of the predicament with the help from Imperial Group and then diverted the heat from him to Imperial Group.
Meanwhile, the Yan and Yun Ye families that had been eyeing Ying covetously would not dare to mess with Ying anymore.
Moanke, who was also thinking about this, frowned at this moment.
Drizzt’s thoughts were full of twists and turns.
At this moment, everyone present must be waiting for him to make a response on behalf of Heavenly Punishment.
If it were on normal days, he would have flipped the table and reported back to the head of the family. Immediately after that, Ying would face a devastating blow.
But at this moment, he did not do so.
Because of Kota, and the mysterious Imperial Group.
Drizzt had always been cautious. He would do nothing that was too risky.
Although he could not confirm the authenticity of Imperial Group’s background, based on the information in Kota’s hands, he had no choice but to refrain from actions based on impulse.
But this was not the most crucial thing.
If Heavenly Punishment continued to develop steadily, then his nephew, John, as the first heir to the corporation, would definitely hold the power of Heavenly Punishment in the future.
And he would forever play second fiddle to his nephew until he died of old age.
But now, he was seeing hope.
Catherine had publicly slapped Heavenly Punishment in the face, and Kota’s appearance would definitely cause a huge uproar in New York.
And all of this could become an opportunity for him to contain his brother.
After that, he would definitely have to contact Kota in private.
As for now, he could not offend Imperial Group. He only needed to express his stance on behalf of Heavenly Punishment.
Having made up his mind, Drizzt gathered his thoughts and prepared to act.
“Catherine, please give my nephew a reasonable explanation. You canceled the marriage engagement in public. Do you really think that we, Heavenly Punishment, are easy to bully?”
He pretended to be angry.
However, he was still smart and wanted to remind Kota with his every word that Catherine was his nephew’s fiancée and had nothing to do with him. He had to fight for Heavenly Punishment.
However, this made many celebrities present panic. The second young master of Heavenly Punishment was finally angry.
How would it end next?
No one could guess. With the power of Heavenly Punishment wielding, it was not impossible for another bloody incident to happen.
So the people continued to rubberneck.
“Canceling the marriage engagement in public?”
Kota glanced at Drizzt contemptuously. “The bullying is over. Don’t you think it’s easy?”
Through observing Drizzt’s inner thoughts, Kota had long discovered that his rage was faked.
Not only that, he had developed a strong interest in himself and was even ecstatic about Catherine’s denouncement of the marriage engagement.
Then Drizzt pointed at Kota.
“Just wait and see, Kota. Heavenly Punishment will make Ying disappear from New York.”
After saying that, Drizzt left the banquet hall under everyone’s watchful eyes.
A smile appeared on his face as he stepped out of the banquet hall.
From the beginning to the end, he said nothing harsh to Kota, the ‘culprit.’ He did not express his stance. It was as if he was just a messenger. Everything that happened today was because of Heavenly Punishment and Ying Corporation. It had nothing to do with him.
