Chapter 913 The Northania Bartons Were Behind It
Colin got back to him on the matter just hours later.
“Master, | have a lead on our investigations. The scammer was from the Barton family of Northania," Colin said. "Their thirdyoung master, Tom Barton, took advantage of a loophole in the contract and committed the fraud."
"Johann Panz could not retrieve the money and felt too guilty to face you; hence, he took his own life."The Bartons of Northania!Nathan furrowed his brows when he heard that name.
The Bartons of Northania had been one of the nation's eight most revered families and was also known as the Barton Group.They were well-respected by many.
The family had plenty of both brains and brawn, and they had followers in almost every corner of the nation and every industry ofthe economy.
Aside from that, they had considerable influence over the economies of other countries as well.
The Barton Group controlled seventy percent of the nation's pharmaceutical market and monopolized almost every stage of itsproduction line.
It could be said that seven out of ten of the nation's widely-used medicines were related to the Barton Group, in one way oranother.
Saying that the Barton Group was the uncrowned king of the nation's pharmaceutical sector was nothing near an exaggeration.
And because of that, Nathan failed to consider the possibility of the Bartons swooping in to snag the three hundred billion fromJohann's hands, which forced him into taking his own life out of despair.
Nathan's face darkened at the thought of that. "Everyone fears the Barton Group and lets them do whatever they want. But I'mnot going to let them off so easily this
time. They must pay for this!"“Master, are you planning to demand the money back as the General of the North?" Colin asked.
Nathan shook his head. "This is a huge sum of money, and | doubt they would spit it out so easily, even if | went up to them asthe General of the North. Besides, people might get suspicious of my wealth if they didn’t know that it was my father's lifesavings. They might think that | was guilty of embezzlement or bribery."
Colin frowned. "What should we do then?"
"No need to fret. I'll go to the West for a few days,” Nathan said calmly. "I want to move the research agency to Channing so thatwe don't have to travel between Channing and the West once the medicine enters the market.”
“Also, Johann Panz used to work for me as a clerk, and he died under my watch. | must attend his wake." "Understood. Whenare you planning to set off to the West?" Colin asked.
“Prepare a private aircraft for me. I'll be leaving in an hour's time," Nathan said.
"Yes, Sir!" Colin saluted.
Nathan bid his farewells to his family before setting off for the West with Colin and the Elite Eight on his private aircraft.They headed straight for Johann's wake once they touched down on Johnstone City.
Johann had killed himself by jumping off a building, which wasn't exactly the most glorious way to die.
Besides, his death was related to the Barton Group and that made the aristocrats even more reluctant to attend his wake.
Thus, his wake ended up being a quiet and private procession with only a handful of visitors.
Nathan paid his respects and turned toJohann's wife, Caroline Helm. "My sincerest condolences to you."
