Chapter 231 Burning Their Bridges

“Should we really invest half of our assets in Southlake Corporation?”

“I have the same question. This isn’t a small sum, you know!”

“Can’t we think of other solutions?”

The other family heads were still hesitating. It was hard for them to accept that they

would have to invest half of their family assets in a corporation.

A wrong investment decision would cause dire consequences.

“You all lack foresight. I’ve already made my decision. As for what you’ll do, I don’t care at

all! “Howard said with a laugh.

He then stood up and got ready to head to Starsphere Media. He no longer bothered to

argue with the others. For him, this investment was completely worth it!

The others got up as well when they saw Howard do so.

“Our wealth and property are only worldly things that we’ll get to earn back in the future.

If we lose our lives, though, we lose everything, so have that in mind!”

After saying that, Howard left.

“Wait! We’ll go with you!”

The three followed after him.

They lamented the loss of their family properties, but they knew their worldly possessions.

were insignificant compared to the fate of their families and their lives.

As long as they still had a place in Easton, they would enjoy endless wealth, and they

might earn back the sum they had invested.

If Caspian was as adept as he was made out to be, the Four Noble Lineages would have

someone to back them up in the future, contributing to their success

What the Four Noble Lineages feared most now was Mahayan Pavilion. If the group

launched a full attack on them, they would not be able to hold their own against it.

At Starsphere Media.

“Caspian, will the Four Noble Lineages seek you out?” Sylvia asked while looking at

Caspian, who was lounging on his office chair.

“If they have something resembling a brain, they’ll show up. They’ll get killed if they

don’t,”

“What if they don’t show up?” Sylvia asked.

‘they don’t, they’ll suffer Mahayan Pavilion’s wrath, and the Four Noble Lineages will

completely disappear from Easton!” Caspian said indifferently.

Sylvia nodded. It seemed like the Four Noble Lineages were in a difficult situation where

every choice would impact the fate of the entire lineage.

“Oh, right. Has Mahayan Pavilion taken any action recently?” Caspian asked.

“Caspian, I’ve just gotten word that Mahayan Pavilion has reached a mutual agreement

with

the Yorks of Dhord City. The two groups plan to work together.

“The York family has sent their men to Southlake City, and they now have a branch of

Southlake Corporation under control. Their next target is probably Southlake Corporation!”

Sylvia said with a grave expression.

“They’re out of line. I’ve already warned them before, but if they insist on walking to their

deaths, then we’ll make it happen!” Caspian said coldly.

“Caspian, do we need to return to Southlake City? They’ll surely strike in a few days!”

Sylvia said, worried.

“It’s fine. I have plans. If the York family insists on going against what is good for them, I’ll

show them what I’m capable of!” Caspian said calmly.

Murderous intent oozed out of him and filled the room.

Sylvia shuddered. She had not seen him exuding such overpowering air in a long time.

The York family would surely suffer a hard blow this time.

“Mr. Lynch, the heads of the Four Noble Lineages of Easton are here to meet you!”

At this moment, Kellen rushed in. The Four Noble Lineages‘ sudden visit to Starsphere

Media

scared the crap out of him.

The Four Noble Lineages were top elite families in Easton, and the common folks would

never

come across them.

Surprisingly, the heads of those four families had shown up at Starsphere Media at the

same time. No one would guess that this would happen.

“You don’t need to be so nervous, Mr. Dolan. This is nothing. Caspian dislikes people who

panic at everything, so take note of that,” Sylvia said to Keller when she noticed how

panicked

the other man looked.

“Uh…” Keller was stunned. He seemed at a loss for words.

Caspian looked calm. To him, the Four Noble Lineages were not even worth mentioning.

Even the most elite families of Dhord City would have to kneel to him if they were here.

Noticing how calm Caspian appeared, Keller was even more curious about his background.

sure that Caspian was not an ordinary man.

“Show the four of them to the reception room. Caspian will be there shortly,” Sylvia said.

“Got it!” Keller nodded and walked out of the office.

“Caspian! You guessed it right! I didn’t expect the heads of the Four Noble Lineages to

show up for real!” Sylvia said somewhat excitedly.

“After all, their destruction awaits tomorrow. Mahayan Pavilion will surely launch an attack

against all elite families tonight, and the Four Noble Lineages cannot handle this when it

happens. Do you think they’ll just sit there and let everything happen?” Caspian said with

smile.

Sylvia’s expression lit up in realization.

It seemed that Caspian had predicted how things would go since early on.

“Let’s go. We’ll see what tricks the Four Noble Lineages have in their sleeves.” Caspian

stood. up and walked to the reception room with Sylvia behind him.

“Please wait for a while, everyone. Mr. Lynch will be here shortly.” Keller led the heads of

the Four Noble Lineages to the reception room.

“Thank you.”

The four men were courteous to Keller. This shocked him because anyone from the Four

Noble Lineages would not have given him the time of day before this. They were polite to

him now solely because of Caspian.

Keller nodded and left the reception room. Later, he arranged for coffee to be made for the

four heads.

They were not in the mood for coffee, though. They were feeling antsy and worried.

“Do you think Mr. Lynch will help?” Herman asked.

“I’m not sure. He asked someone to show us to the reception room, so he probably will

meet us, won’t he?” Jon replied.

They had already burned all their bridges–they no longer had anywhere they could fall

back on. If Caspian did not meet them, the Four Noble Lineages would get into a very

sticky situation.

Compared to the other heads, Howard looked calm.

“No need to be anxious. We’ve come here anyway, so let’s just wait,” Howard said calmly.

Looking at his composed demeanor, the other three heads felt somewhat helpless. They

were in a dire situation, and yet Howard seemed to be completely unruffled. If Mahayan

Pavilion attacked the Four Noble Lineages today, they would all be done for!

Howard shook his head at how anxious the other three heads were. These men had no

willpower to speak of.

If he had not thought of a strategy, they would probably be waiting for their demise now!

“Mr. Lynch has arrived!”

At this moment, a loud voice came from outside the reception room.
