Chapter 322 Part 2
"Are you kidding me?" Mark shouted, shoving his chair back and rising sharply, staring down at the dark stain spreading across his jacket.He shouted at the waiter and demanded that the restaurant manager come immediately."Do you have any idea how much this suit cost?" Mark snapped, his face reddening. "Get your manager. Now."When the waiter apologized repeatedly, Mark threatened to have him fired and started bragging about who he was and the kind of people he could call."I'm so sorry, sir," the waiter stammered, grabbing a napkin, his hands trembling. "It was an accident, I'll clean it immediately—""You'll be cleaning out your locker by tonight," Mark snapped, cutting him off. "Do you have any idea who I am? I could have this entire restaurant blacklisted with one phone call. I know people who could shut this place down."Kate's expression slowly changed.Her earlier polite indifference hardened into visible discomfort, her gaze flicking between Mark's furious outburst and the te

Mark had gone to an expensive restaurant for a business lunch on Natalie's behalf. He sat alone at a reserved table, checking his watch every few minutes, the meeting still fifteen minutes out.While waiting for the person he was supposed to meet, he noticed Kate entering the restaurant.He glanced up as the hostess guided a familiar figure toward a nearby table, Kate's sharp business attire and confident stride catching his attention instantly.Since he had already been interested in getting closer to her, he immediately saw the opportunity.There she is, Mark thought, straightening his jacket. Perfect timing.He approached her with a confident smile and invited her to sit with him."Kate," Mark said, intercepting her path with an easy smile. "What a coincidence. Care to join me while I wait for my meeting?"Kate agreed, mostly out of politeness."I suppose I have a few minutes," Kate said, glancing at her own watch, taking the offered seat more out of courtesy than genuine interest.

The leader finally admitted that they had arranged the fake documents, stopped Peter's shipment, and ordered the attack because he refused their investment deal."Fine," the investor gasped, still pressed into the chair, his face pale with fear. "We arranged the fake documents. We stopped the shipment. We hired the men who attacked the warehouse. All of it, because Bertan refused our deal."Joshua listened without changing his expression.He stood perfectly still, hands clasped behind his back, his gaze fixed on the man with cold, unreadable patience.He then leaned closer and calmly told him that he had made a serious mistake."You made a serious mistake," Joshua said, crouching slightly to bring himself level with the investor's eyes, his voice quiet and deliberate."You wanted Peter's company. Instead, you brought yourself to me."The man tried to apologize, but Joshua had already ordered his men to collect every piece of evidence connecting them to the operation."Please," the inv

He did not wait for Peter to ask for help.He's not going to call me, Joshua thought, closing the folder. He never does. Doesn't mean I wait for permission to act.After hearing the names connected to the attack, his expression changed."Read this again," Joshua said to Monica's counterpart on his own team, tapping a list of names cross-referenced against the previous day's investors. His expression darkened as recognition settled over him. "These are the same men from yesterday's meeting."He gave Monica no call and asked Peter no questions.Joshua didn't reach for his phone. He simply set the report aside and rose from his chair.Instead, he ordered his security team to find the people responsible."Find them," Joshua said, his voice flat and cold. "Tonight. I want to know exactly where they're gathering."Within the hour, his security chief returned with an address. "They're meeting at a private club downtown. All three of yesterday's investors, plus two others.""Good," Joshua sai

The news about Peter's company spread quickly the next morning. The attack on his warehouse, the fake documents, and the investigation had already become the main topic among several business circles."Every outlet's running some version of it," an assistant said, sliding a stack of clippings across Peter's desk. "'Bertan Industries Linked to Illegal Importation.' It's everywhere."Peter barely glanced at the headlines, his jaw tight.At the Betham family residence, some of his relatives did not even bother hiding their amusement."Well, well," his cousin Harold said, lounging in the family's sitting room when Peter stopped by that evening to check on his elderly aunt. "The great businessman finally falls flat on his face."They mocked him and asked who was standing behind him now."Where's your little friend now, Peter?" Harold continued, smirking. "The famous Joshua Hart. I heard he was so impressive at that meeting yesterday. Funny how none of that impressiveness seems to be helpin

They were not part of the investigation."Everyone down!" one of them shouted, and the federal investigators scattered in confusion, several drawing their own weapons, clearly as caught off guard as Peter's own staff.They forced their way inside and began attacking Peter's security personnel.Two of Peter's guards moved to intercept them and were shoved violently against a stack of crates, one crumpling to the floor from a blow to the stomach, the other wrestled to the ground within seconds.Chaos erupted as employees ran for safety.Screams echoed through the warehouse as workers scattered, diving behind pallets and machinery, overturned equipment clattering across the concrete floor.Peter was pushed against a vehicle while trying to get his people out, and one of the attackers warned him that he should have accepted the investment deal when he had the chance.A gloved hand shoved Peter hard against the side of a parked truck, pinning him there with bruising force."You should've s
