Chapter 1175 Who Wants To Take A Trip To Channing
At the Lance residence in Brimmopolis, someone reported, "Mr. Artoria is here!”
After the doorman called out, the head of the Artoria family, a tall man just over sixty years old,walked into the house with a group of his men.
Pirk, the head of the Lance family, had already brought his more prominent family members to theliving room to welcome the Artoria family.
When Pirk saw Max, he hurriedly went forward to greet him and respectfully said, "You're here, Mr.Artoria!"
Max nodded. "Something's happened, and I had to discuss it personally with you.”
Naturally, Pirk knew Max was here to discuss the matters concerning Sam and Alfie. He reached hisarm out and suggested, "Mr. Artoria, please head in. We can talk about it there."
Soon, Pirk, Max and the rest walked into the grand living room and took a seat.
After the servant served them tea, Max dived straight into the matter. He said, "Mr. Lance, I shall bedirect with you since our families have always been close. I'm here today because of my grandson,Sam. I just learnt that Sam and Alfie are held captive in Channing by a man named Nathan. Thatman was outrageous enough to send someone to my house and requested that I head down toChanning myself to pick Sam up. He even wanted me to apologize to him!"
A wry smile formed on Pirk's face, and he voiced out, "Nathan also just sent a man to my house toinform me that Alfie had offended him. He also wants me to apologize to him in person."
Fury flashed across Max's face. Nobody had ever dared to show him such disrespect or insult hisfamily in this way.
His face darkened as he uttered, "What the hell is going on?"
The Lance and the Artoria families had always had a close relationship. In the past, after theemperor defeated the Lance family, they became his followers and were loyal to him ever since.
As the Artoria family were a part of the royal bloodline, the Lance family always respected them asthey were the emperor's descendants. They often looked out for them and vice versa.
That being the case, Pirk did not hold back. He directly revealed the grievances between Nathanand his family.
Finally, he said, "I think Sam must have found out that Alfie wanted to teach Nathan a lesson andthought of lending a helping hand. However, he ended up getting trapped in the matter, and now,the two of them are being held captive."novelbin
After figuring out the details, Max turned shocked and angry.
He questioned, "Who the hell is Nathan Cross? Why is he so arrogant? Who is he to hold Sam andAlfie captive while requesting for both of us to apologize to him in person?"
Pirk replied, "Nathan is from the Cross family in Cledondale and his father, Zayn, is one ofNorthania's famous businessmen. After his father passed on, Nathan took over his family'sbusiness and merged it with his wife's company. It became Cross Group, a pharmaceuticalcompany. Nathan and his wife, Penny, are now considered the bosses of the nation's leadingpharmaceutical corporation."
Max scoffed, "I imagined him to be someone powerful, yet after all this talk, he's just a small-timebusinessman."
Pirk smiled. "Given both our statuses, it'll be ridiculous for us to head down to rescue the two ofthem, let alone apologize to Nathan. However, we still have to get the two of them out of there. Do
you have any ideas, Mr. Artoria?"
Max smugly answered, "Since he's just a lowly businessman, we can simply send someone downto rescue them and teach Nathan a lesson."
Pirk interjected, "However, he must not be that easy to deal with since Sam and Alfie could nothandle Nathan themselves. Who shall we send?"
Max turned to his group of capable men. "Who would like to make a trip to Channing?"
Dexter, Max's oldest grandson, who was part of the new generation of leaders, stepped forward tovolunteer.
"Grandpa, Nathan has insulted our family by capturing Sam. I ought to step up to defend ourfamily's reputation as the oldest grandson of the Artoria family. Let me go to Channing to rescue mycousin and Alfie, as well as to punish Nathan."
