Chapter 170 Drama of the Wealthy Families, a Dogs Fight
“Mr Simpson, we have identified him, he was born in a village at the northwest, his name is Harley Stone, he became a street gangster during elementary school. He was sent to the hospital by Viper, Viper promised him a hundred thousand yuan if he completed the task.”
“So Harley didn’t know who was the mastermind behind? Have you identified Viper?” Robert asked.
“We investigated Viper, he is working for a multinational company, he is a mercenary that stays loyal to no sides. And he is hard to be tracked so we didn’t find much information on him… Viper knows we are onto him since Harley failed his mission, I guess he will stay hidden for a while.”
The results disappointed Robert, everything surrounded Travis was like a puzzle that he couldn’t solve.
“Keep the investigation on, call me if you need me, don’t stop the investigation.”
Robert explained what he heard from his assistant to Georgia.
“Georgia, do you know if Travis has any enemy? Is there someone that you suspect?”
Georgia shook her head.
“Robert, Travis’s background was simple, his parents died while he was young and his grandmother raised him. He disappeared suddenly ten years ago, I thought he went to study abroad. Only recently I found out that he had been living as a dumb beggar, suffers on the street. His family was simple, I don’t understand who wants him dead and why.”
Robert was confused too, it was understandable if he was from a wealthy family.
But no one could prove his identity anymore since his grandma died.
“It’s alright, don’t overthink, I will handle everything for you, I’ve sent more people to protect him, no one can go near him anymore.”
Georgia was very grateful to Robert.
“Thank you for helping Travis.”
Robert was not a big-hearted person, but he had confirmed that there was nothing between Travis and Georgia.
Helping Travis only brought Georgia closer to him, why not?
While on the internet, netizens that disliked Robert and Georgia increased by the seconds.
Robert and Georgia were named a shameless couple, bullying others with money, netizens were not happy about them.
They kept shooting behind the keyboard, some even asked them to kill themselves.
Even Professor Lee and Aston’s number were dug out. A lot of angry netizens called and blamed them for siding and protecting Georgia.
Everyone around Georgia got driven into the tornado.
Though, Aston and Professor Lee didn’t call and tell Georgia what happened.
They blocked all strangers’ numbers and continued their work.
Aston and Professor Lee were well prepared for the online war, this was a small matter that did not affect both of them.
Aston continued looking for Lucas after work along with Emilia.
Lucas had gone missing for almost a month, the Powell family were looking for him.
It was rumoured that Lucas was brought to China, so Aston and Emilia looked for him here but bore no fruits.
Tonight, Selena released video content on her account.
It was the video at the pub that night.
Wendy and Eden were fighting, there was no sound but their expressions were clearly seen.
And then Wendy left angrily while Eden followed until the car park. Wendy left driving her car and Eden chased her from the back.
Selena made a note under the video.
“You must be curious about this video, the lady in the video was Wendy who died from a car crash six years ago, she was also my best friend, this is a video recorded on the night the accident happened… While the man who was fighting with Wendy was Eden, the hotly discussed son from the Lane family, he is also the little brother to Emma Lane. Eden chased behind Wendy on the car that killed her right before the crash, I don’t understand how Eden’s half-sister Georgia Lane was claimed to be the murderer… I guess all of you can watch the video and make a sound judgement.”
Selena was not famous on the internet, she didn’t announce her identity.
Robert reposted the video and speech released by Selena on all accounts and websites under him.
Netizens began to dig deeper into Emma’s brother, Eden Lane.
They weren’t familiar with Eden before and were shocked by the information they found.
Eden was a trouble maker since elementary school, a lot of ex-classmates claimed that they’ve been bullied by Eden, he was the biggest bully and even caused injuries that needed medical attention. All the cases were solved by paying the victims.
The most severe case was where a guy was beaten until he lost his legs but the news was covered up using their power.
Not only this, but he was also a womanizer, a two-timer and forced women to go for abortion.
Many Eden ex-classmates testified against him online following the exposure of this news.
A few years back, Eden went to study abroad, he continued his troublemaking nature and even got addicted to drugs.
Chinese students who studied abroad knew about him, Eden was a revolting wealthy son.
Eden became a trouble maker, a bully and a revolting wealthy son in the heart of the netizens within seconds.
This was an image most hated by the commoners, women went through abortion for him, drugs, gamble, bully, misuse of powers were all title hated by the people.
Along with the video, a conspiracy theory was formed.
They agreed that it was Eden that murdered Wendy.
The Lane didn’t expect that such a video existed, including Georgia.
When she asked Robert about it, he kissed her on the lips and smiled.
“I wanted to surprise you, so I asked Selena not to tell you. Who will believe that the Lane is innocent now?”
“I didn’t know I was imprisoned on behalf of whom until this year, it was Eden. Eden will have his karma sooner or later even if we don’t do anything, he is a complete spoilt brat.”
Vanessa accompanied Annie to sleep tonight, so Robert and Georgia lied on the same bed.
It pained Robert hearing what Georgia said, he hugged her.
“I’m sorry, I discovered the truth too late, if I had investigated further, maybe you won’t suffer in the prison.”
Georgia shook her head.
“This is not your fault, it was all on the Lane. Your sister was murdered by Eden, you are a victim too, you must be in tremendous pain at that time, of course, you won’t have time to investigate further. There’s only one thing that upsets me during my six years in prison, that’s Annie’s health. The Lane hated me, I think they had someone inside that bullied me daily, I was hurt and due to this, Annie’s health was affected. I feel guilty towards her.”
Robert patted Georgia’s back and kept quiet.
It wasn’t the Lane, it was him.
He shut his eyes tightly hearing Georgia’s words, would she forgive him if she found out the truth?
Robert dared not ask, he only wanted to give the best to the woman in his arms.
Until the day she discovered the truth but couldn’t leave and chose to forgive him.
The next morning, Owen smashed everything in the study room.
He discovered his wife cheated on him yesterday and defended, but now his son gave him trouble.
If Robert was trying to spread rumours, they could put on a pitiful act but everything was true.
The online platform was filled with Eden’s ex-classmates the whole night, everyone had their version of a story about Eden Lane.
And with the video, the Lane had now become the most hated bullied and wealthy family that misused their power.
There were netizens on their side before, but now every single one of them thought they were repulsive and liars.
The video also made the netizens felt Georgia was framed and started to have empathy for her.
Created false evidence, framing others, all these made the netizens hated the Lane.
Even the rational one who understood that the news was released by Robert, won’t have empathy towards the Lane anymore.
Everyone was watching a drama of the wealthy families, a dogfighting show.
Their failure was due to Eden, if he wasn’t useless, if he didn’t murder someone, the Lane would never have to face all these.
“Dad, we must keep calm now, what should we do about Eden’s news online? Netizens are siding the other side. Many Eden ex-classmates testified against him, they don’t believe us and see us as liars.”
Emma was annoyed, she never expected that Robert had a video from six years ago.
The release of the video put the Lane in a very disadvantaged position.
“Emma, can you keep calm now? Eden ran away, he knew I will beat him so he ran away. I don’t need a son like this, I wished he had never been born, how could I have a son like him!”
Owen yelled furiously.
Emma too wished that she didn’t have a brother like Eden. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Such a trouble maker, he contributed nothing but troubles to the family, if it wasn’t because of Eden and that accident, the Lane would never have to face such difficulties.
“Dad, we need to think of a way, anger solves nothing.”
“I’ve sent someone for Eden, if he is captured by Robert now, we are doomed. He can’t keep his mouth shut.”
Owen worried that if Eden revealed the truth under pressure, they would lose the war.
“Dad, our men alone is not enough, I’ll call Laurence to look for Eden too.”
“Yes, you are right, we should call Laurence now.”
The call was connected after a while.
“I’ve seen the news online, Mr Lane, you call me out of the blue, what can I help?”
“Mr Knight, my son ran away, I sent some of my men to locate him, but I’m worried that Robert will get to him before we do, could you please look for Eden too?”
Laurence sighed and nodded.
He collaborated with the Lane because they are still useful in the attack of the Simpson family.
A small favour like this was nothing to Laurence since the Lane was still useful to him.
“Yes, I could send my man, don’t worry.”
Hearing he promised, Owen asked.
“Mr Knight, we agreed to collaborate, when will you deliver your words? The Simpson is getting close to us now, they could destroy us anytime, do you wish to be a bystander watching Robert attacks us?”
“Mr Lane, how well do you know Robert’s father? Do you know why I stay hidden? If I launch my attack now, Robert’s father could easily locate me, he is far more capable than Robert. And by then I will be killed by Robert’s father while the Lane will die with me. I stay hidden waiting for an opportunity to get rid of Robert’s father and then I will shift my focus onto you, don’t worry. Robert obviously wants to torture you step by step, he won’t destroy you just yet.”
He meant he won’t help, for the time being, Owen hung up with his face stiffened.
Owen heard rumours about Robert’s father too.
Laurence sounded like he was afraid of him too, did that mean the Lane family was doomed?
Instead of waiting for a helping hand, it was better to stand on your own feet.
“Emma, pay someone on the internet to create some false evidence, we must stop Robert… Release the picture at the scene of the accident to the public, show them it was Georgia in that car, we must create a fog to cover the car accident and let the netizens keep the discussion on!”
Emma and Owen discussed their strategies but the launching was interrupted by their maid.
“Mr Owen, Miss, Madame is experiencing heavy bleeding, she fainted, what should we do now?”
