Chapter 475

Chapter 475:
After Lucas hung up, Gordon gulped, realizing the grave implications. The Wagner family was going to be in deep trouble.
The next day, the Wagner family’s company suffered a catastrophic blow. The Wicethien Group, owned by the Wagner family, faced a series of issues. First, regulatory problems flagged several of their projects. Then, operational flaws were publicly disclosed, and long-suppressed complaints began to emerge.
Key business partners swiftly withdrew their investments in the Wicethien Group and canceled ongoing collaborations. Banks, too, abruptly denied loans for the major projects the group had been pursuing. In the blink of an eye, the Wicethien Group found itself at the center of a full-blown crisis.
The speed and precision of this downfall left little room for doubt—the Wagner family had crossed someone formidable.
Before any speculation could take hold, news began to spread that Morse had attempted to drug Belinda at a restaurant, and Lucas had witnessed the entire incident.
This revelation sent shockwaves through the elite community.
Everyone was shocked by Morse’s audacity to drug Belinda. They were equally taken aback by Lucas’ explosive reaction to the incident. It became clear that Lucas’ intent was to destroy the Wagner family, trapping them in a situation from which there was no escape.
At that moment, it was evident to everyone that, despite being Lucas’ ex-wife, Belinda still meant a great deal to him. Those who had previously considered harming Belinda quickly abandoned the idea, realizing the risks involved now.
Within the confines of the Wagner family’s residence, restlessness consumed Morse as he paced back and forth in his room. The aggressive move by Lucas had taken him by surprise, leaving both him and his family cornered and desperate.

Morse inhaled deeply before picking up his phone to make a call. His first attempt went unanswered. Silence greeted his second try as well. It was only on the third attempt, just as he was about to give up, that the call finally connected.
“Hello?” A woman’s voice came through.
“You really need to help me this time!” Morse immediately pleaded upon hearing her voice.
“Help you?” the woman responded casually, almost dismissively. “Given Mr. Clark’s vendetta against your family, who do you think is in a position to help you now?”
Morse’s frustration erupted. “Minna! You mustn’t forget, it was you who handed me the drug! You were the one plotting against Belinda, asking me to drug her. Now that everything’s been exposed, do you expect me to shoulder the blame alone? No way! That’s not happening!”
As he spoke, Morse’s face twisted with fury.
A subtle change crossed Minna’s features as she listened. Her brow furrowed before she spoke in a calming tone. “Don’t be angry. Just listen to me first. Mr. Clark has already caught you in the act of drugging Belinda. What help do you think I can offer you now? But don’t worry; I’m not going to abandon your family. With the Williamson family’s influence, there is still hope for the Wagner family to get back on its feet. We just need to handle this quietly, understood?”
