Chapter 69: The Luna Family has gone bankrupt.
"Mom,"
Sinclair looked at the thing in his hand, a question in his eyes.
"Is this thing really that useful?"
"Of course," Margaret gracefully sipped her tea, a graceful and gentle smile on her face.
"This was acquired through a hefty sum from the underworld channels in Southeast America."
She put down her teacup and looked at Sinclair, continuing her words.
"As long as you put this in Sandra’s wine glass, she will obediently follow your wishes."
"But mom, after all, the Porter family is not an ordinary small clan,"
The concern was evident on Tyler’s face.
"If Sandra notices something amiss and the Porter family investigates, it may not end well."
"Don’t worry,"
The gentle smile remained on Margaret’s face.
"Afterwards, Sandra would only think she had too much to drink, she won’t recall anything else."
Her eyes narrowed slightly.
"As for the Porter family, the effect of the medicinal pill disperses swiftly, they wouldn’t be able to find anything even if they were suspicious."
Furthermore. Tyler is no less than Sinclair the Porter family might not necessarily be unwilling.
"That’s good."
Tyler held the medicinal pill in his hand, a satisfied look in his eyes.
The banquet two days later will be his first formal appearance before the Luther Family’s side and the various major families in the capital.
He wants everyone to know that the Luther Family’s direct line is not just Sinclair.
On top of the UNIQUE Tower.
Inside a bright and spacious room.
Sinclair stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window, his expression indifferent as he overlooked the bustling traffic below.
His immaculate black suit makes him appear noble and profound.
At that moment.
"Sweetheart"
A soft and sweet voice pulled Sinclair’s attention back.
He turned to gaze at his charming wife.
In the form-fitting white, backless mermaid dress, her exquisite curves were displayed to full effect.
Her smooth, fair back resembled a perfect piece of jade.
The slender waist barely filled his palm, paired with the figure-hugging mermaid dress, displaying her perfect waist-to-hip ratio without any disguise.
Although it was a cold color, when worn on Camilla, inexplicably exuded an aura of sex appeal.
Pure, yet seductive.
It made one unable to resist the urge to pull her into one’s arms, to sink into mutual desire.
Sinclair’s pupils contracted slightly, his expression hard to read.
"What’s wrong?"
Camilla looked at Sinclair with a slight frown.
"Isn’t it nice?"
She thought it was quite good.
"It is nice."
A faint smile appeared on Sinclair’s lips as he picked up a black halter-neck dress.
"But I’m looking forward to this one more." Such a sight, he absolutely wouldn’t allow other men to see.
It seemed that he indeed wasn’t satisfied with this one.
Understood, Camilla took the black gown from Sinclair’s hand and went back into the changing room.
Sinclair loosened his tie slightly. Soon, Camilla changed into a black dress and walked out.
The halter-top design made Camilla’s excellent swan-like neck appear even more slender.
The slight V-neck, revealing a hint of her stunning beauty.
The cinching at her waist and the slit of her skirt. Both showed off her slim waist and long legs perfectly.
Within the elegance, an ultimate sexiness was exuded.
It seemed that what was enticing was not the dress, but the person.
The gaze of Sinclair looked at Camilla deepened inch by inch, forming a whirlpool that was immeasurably deep.
In the bottom of his eyes, thoughts sprang wildly.
"Sweetheart,"
Having lived two lives, Camilla knew all too well what Sinclair’s unabashed fervent gaze meant, and her heart skipped a beat.
"I think, maybe I should try something else."
She took the champagne-colored strap long dress next to her, and hurriedly walked towards the changing room.
However, before the door could close, it was stopped by a distinctively knuckled hand.
"Sweetheart!!"
Camilla’s heartbeat accelerated rapidly. "We’re outside now, you can’t mess around."
Before she could finish, the man had already pulled her into his arms.
"Camilla," Sinclair’s long and strong fingers gently stroked Camilla’s slender waist, his voice filled with a hot and husky breath.
"You are my wife, we’re legally together, this isn’t inappropriate."
"I didn’t mean that, Ramsey and the others are just..."
Camilla’s words were again cut off by the man who lifted her onto the dressing table and started to kiss her chin.
How dare she mention another man’s name at this moment?
Sinclair’s actions, somehow, bore a hint of punishment directed at Camilla, settling finally on her snow-capped peaks.
"Uh!"
Camilla almost let out a sound.
Realizing where she is, she quickly bit down on her red lips.
Sinclair, however, did not let her go.
"Sweetheart,"
The extreme numbness instantly spread to every nerve of Camilla, making her unable to resist.
Pure beautiful eyes were covered in a layer of mist.
"What’s the matter?"
The corner of Sinclair’s mouth hooked slightly, the elongated ink pupils filled with deep darkness.
"Baby."
Camilla didn’t say a word, she just bit her lip and kept shaking her head at him.
Apparently, she wanted to stop him from continuing.
"Camilla," Sinclair laughed lightly, pulling Camilla close to himself, his voice low and smoky. "It’s too late now."
At this moment. San Francisco, which had been at peace for a long time, suddenly stirred up a sensation.
The Luna Family, with strong momentum likely to go even further, was facing the prospect of a sudden collapse overnight.
First, the various businesses under the Luna Family’s direct line suddenly faced a break in their financial chain and lost the ability to operate.
However, throughout this crisis, the head of the Luna Family, Mr. Luna, was nowhere to be seen.
Several reports suggested that he had already taken his family and left America ahead of time.
Seeing this situation... Businesses that had cooperated with the Luna Family swiftly cut off their ties to weather this storm and minimize their losses.
In a short time, the businesses of the Luna Family’s main line were knocked off their pedestals and were on the brink of bankruptcy.
Following this, misfortunes began to befall the Luna Family’s collateral lines one after another.
The once vast family was on the verge of falling apart in a very short time.
The swiftness of it all sent chills through many.
The entire upper-class society of the capital was in an uproar.
"Who did Luna’s family offend to end up in such a pitiful state?"
"There are only a handful of people in the entire capital who could crush the Luna Family in such a short time and make it impossible for them to rise again."
"If it really is one of those few, one can only say that the Luna Family was blinded by their own misfortune."
"Do you think Mr. Luna really took the Luna Family’s main line and fled abroad?"
On the other side...
"The one behind the assassination attempt on Sinclair, it really was Mr. Luna," Calvin narrowed his eyes, his face wearing a nonchalant smile.
"It seems that I indeed underestimated the Luna Family before,"
"The Luna Family no longer exists, whether they were underestimated or not is no longer relevant,"
Taylor, looking at the documents in front of him, said calmly.
"Camilla’s bad luck can only be blamed," Calvin fiddled with his phone, the smile in his eyes intensifying.
"He ran into Roman, such a troublesome spendthrift, and that’s what led to all these incidents and offended Sinclair,"
Taylor chuckled, noncommittal.
After a moment, he brought his fist to his lips, suppressing a couple of coughs.
"Speaking of, Taylor,"
Calvin looked at his friend’s pale face due to the coughing, and sighed inwardly.
"Sinclair has agreed to let his little wife come to see you, when will you have time?"
"That’s an old problem of mine,"
Taylor, raised his head from the files to look at his friend, a helpless expression on his face.
"Melissa is simple-minded, why do you follow her nonsense too?"
Tried once, disappointed once. He had long given up.
His only hope was to manage Taylor Group’s assets properly, and hand them over to Melissa.
"We all heard from grandpa luther that Grandpa Rodriguez is a highly skilled doctor," said Calvin, raising an eyebrow, unhappy with his friend’s pessimistic attitude.
"Camilla Later inherited the medical skills of grandpa Rodriguez, so they wouldn’t be bad,"
He frowned, continuing, "This point is reflected in the condition of Sinclair."
Taylor cornered his lips into a faint bitter smile without saying a word.
"Anyway, I’ve already invited you," Calvin reclined on the sofa again, a smile returning to his handsome face.
"If you want to refuse, go tell Sinclair yourself," His eyes narrowed.
"I just don’t know, if he would think we are deliberately making fun of his little wife."
Taylor cast down his eyes, but his hand holding the document made no move.
He knew, if he were to refuse again, whether Sinclair would lose his temper or not, Calvin certainly would.
And also Melissa. Going back, he’d surely be fed up with her pestering.
Forget it, just give it another try.
Anyway, one more time does not matter.
"Okay, let’s let Camilla have a try then, I will arrange the time later,"
He looked at his good friend, and said softly, "Calvin, thank you."
"Stop it, don’t pull this trick on me," Calvin rolled his eyes at Taylor, sipped the coffee in front of him, and said casually.
"I just wish that my few friends, would be well." Taylor curved his lips slightly.
Among them, Calvin looks the least serious, but he is actually the person who values relationships the most.
When Taylor made that mistake back then, Sinclair was set to kill him. In the end, it was Calvin who risked his life to stop him.
Thinking of that rainy night, Taylor sighed in his heart.
"Taylor, you have been quiet. Aren’t you thinking about how to thank me?"
Calvin’s voice interrupted Taylor’s reminiscences.
"In fact, the plot of land you just bid for in the south of the city, our He family have had an eye on it for quite some time."
Taylor ignored Calvin, and picked up his file again. "Camelo, see the guest out."
At this time, At the Sanchez family’s villa.
"Dad, Mum," Dressed in a black mini-skirt, Clara with her makeup pristinely applied walked downstairs, laughing.
"I’m off to the Luna Family."
She was determined to persuade Mrs. Luna and get herself invited to Grandpa luther’s birthday feast as the future daughter-in-law of the Luna Family.
At that time, she would seize the opportunity to expose the true ungrateful face of Camilla.
At that time, the expression on Camilla’s face would definitely be priceless.
Engrossed in her thoughts, Clara was oblivious to the somber expressions that had long set on Augustine and Victoria’s faces. "Have you lost your mind?"
Victoria rose from the sofa, her face reflecting disbelief as she looked at Clara.
"Why would you go to the Luna Family at this time?"
"Mom," Clara, taken aback by Victoria’s reaction, stood rooted to the spot.
"What do you mean? What’s this about going to the Luna Family at this time?"
She looked at her parents with confusion written all over her face.
"Aren’t you also hoping that I persuade the Luna Family to attend grandpa Luther’s birthday feast?"
"Luna Family," However, Augustine had already turned on the LCD TV in front of him.
"See for yourself."
