In half a minute.
They both hung up the phone one after another.
"Bastards!"
Carter Moore gritted his teeth in anger. He lost all his composure and confidence. He grabbed the cup of hot tea he had just made and slammed it to his feet, "How dare they go to the Moore Group to do that?! They have really taken the bull by the horns!"
Bam!
The teacup fell to the ground and broke to pieces. There was a splash of tea.
"Mr. Moore, don't get mad."
Luke Young advised, "Everything happens for a reason. They were too shrewd to dare to do so without good reason and confidence."
"So, I'll go with you, and we'll get the lay of the land."
"Okay!"
Carter Moore snorted, "Take your men! If they can't give me a reasonable explanation, arrest them, all of them! Put them in jail! Put them all in jail!"
"Okay!"
Luke Young nodded and said, "I have asked Jack to take people there. You can rest assured that I will get justice for you and make them pay the due price."
Then the two then left the golf course and headed for the Moore Group…
…
On the other side.
On the sixth floor of Ricky Mall.
More than a hundred clothes hung on the hangers, dazzling. There were all kinds of styles and sizes. Cecilia and Chloe spent half an hour picking, but only got about twenty pieces each.
"Cecilia, how about this one?"
Chloe took out a piece, put it on her body, and kept gesturing.
Cecilia looked at her a few times and smiled, "It's not bad. It fits your figure and temperament, but it's a little chubby."
"Who cares?"
Chloe put the clothes away, "Anyway, it's free. What if I get fat? I can keep it for later. If I don't, I can take it home to my mom…"
She leaned over to Cecilia, looked over her shoulder at Sean and whispered, "How much do you think the guy had in his credit card? He spent more than 900, 000 dollars at a time, and he didn't even feel sorry for it."
"Even Hudson couldn't be that big-spending."
The comparison between people was always there.
Hudson Scott gave Chloe a Cartier pendant worth 150 grand, which made Chloe so happy. Now, Sean, whom she scorned and mocked, had spent $900, 000! Hudson Scott couldn't beat him.
Her sense of superiority was gone. How was she supposed to be satisfied?
She looked down at the Cartier pendant now. She did not seem to like it as much as before.
"I don't know either."
Cecilia rolled her eyes, embarrassed. She knew as much about Sean as Chloe did.
"It doesn't matter."
Chloe chuckled, "He's your husband now, and he's living in your house, and it's easy for you to find out about him? Get a chance to find out the balance on his credit card."
"He's so rich. If he didn't steal or rob, and if he is nice to you, why don't you get married with him soon. You need to make him your own first."
"Even if you don't like him and dump him, you can get half the money…"
Chloe got more and more excited.
"Oh, come on!"
Cecilia spat, not wanting to dwell on the issue, motioning, "Just pick. You can't keep your mouth shut with all these clothes. I know what I'm doing."
Cecilia didn't want to get engaged to Sean.
She was not trying to butter up Sean just for the money.
She had her own rules for relationships.
However, her eyes rested on Sean, and she was equally curious about the man who had suddenly appeared in her life. She thought getting engaged to Sean was the beginning of a tragedy. But Sean surprised her several times in just a few hours.
"What kind of man is he???"
This thought filled Cecilia's mind when she was choosing a dress.
Even Hudson Scott.
"Dude, what a surprise."
Hudson Scott and Sean were standing in front of the store, watching Cecilia and Chloe choosing clothes. Hudson Scott hesitated, but couldn't help speaking, "I'm sorry I looked down on you earlier. I heard you just got out of prison and I had this preconceived notion that you weren't a good person, and if I did something wrong, please don't take it personally."
Hudson Scott was not stupid.
He didn't know what the quaint black card was and how much money was in it, or whether Luis Sanchez's sudden departure had anything to do with it, but he had a hunch that Sean was someone special.
It was always wise to play safe.
What if Sean had a lot of background, a lot of status, and he was too big for Luis Sanchez?
Hudson Scott couldn't gamble because he couldn't afford to lose.
"It's okay."
Sean shook his head without even looking at Hudson Scott.
Hudson Scott was upset, but he didn't show it. He continued to say, "I heard you were in prison for rape, but with all your martial skills and money, there should be no shortage of women around you. How…"
Hudson Scott really didn't understand this.
As the son of the Scott family in the south of the city, Hudson Scott was a typical rich and powerful child, so he knew the life of the rich. Sean could spend over $900, 000 without even raising an eyebrow. A man like Sean could easily have any woman he wanted.
Why would he rape?
In the eyes of rich men, women were like clothes in this shop, and can be picked at will. They could wear whatever they wanted.
Once they got tired of it, they could throw it away anytime and anywhere.
For example, Chloe, three days ago, Hudson Scott just invited her for her a meal, and he got her. He just gave her a pendant and she was so happy that she wanted to do it more and change positions in bed.
"Heard?"
Sean looked back at Hudson Scott and asked, without answering his question, "Your dad, is his name Connor Scott?"
"Sorry?"
Hudson Scott was stunned, "You know my dad?"
"No, I just have heard of him."
Sean looked away from Hudson Scott and thought, "It's true. He is Connor Scott's son!"
Didn't you understand?
But your dad did. And your father was probably one of the men who put me in prison five years ago!
Just wait.
If I had time, I would go to the south of the city tomorrow to visit my grandparents and find out the whole story of what happened five years ago. Once I knew for sure that your father was involved, I would pay your dad a visit!
You would see!
Hudson Scott sensed something is wrong with Sean, but before he could ask more, a shrill cell phone rang.
He pulled out his phone and saw Connor Scott's chauffeur calling...
