Chapter 158 Until He Went Bankrupt
At the same time, she also understood why he had thrown away the needle case! It was her only weapon.
Without any remedy, she quickly became dizzy and couldn’t move.
Wesley coldly held her body down. “Drive quickly!”
The assistant turned the car in a different direction. Isabelle swayed and realized that they were not heading towards the cemetery at all.
What did Wesley want to do?
Isabelle was very anxious. The car drove for about two hours and arrived in front of a suburban villa.
The assistant carried Isabelle into the room and placed her on a chair.
Wesley then pushed the wheelchair into the house.
The room looked like an office. Isabelle looked around cautiously and suddenly noticed a tall man standing by the window.
He turned around and Wesley said, “Sir, I have brought Bella.”
Excuse me, sir?
Isabelle frowned and stared at him. Who exactly was he?
The man squinted and smiled at her, “Are you curious about me? Soon you will know who I am. But before that, Ms. Spencer, you have to cooperate with us and do something.”
Isabelle looked at the tightly closed gate.

Isabelle quickly approached Wesley, disappointed and anxious. “This person doesn’t seem like a good person. Wesley, don’t be with him! Let’s go back!”
“Bella, you had to listen. I didn’t want to resort to the means I used in the car just now. You were pregnant.”
Isabelle was heartbroken. He deceived her. They were not here to mourn their mother and grandfather at all.
When did Wesley become like this?
Wesley sneered, his eyes filled with excitement. “My grand revenge plan will be accomplished today, and you are the final piece missing.”
What? Isabelle’s eyes filled with confusion.
She shook her head. “Wesley, you couldn’t seek revenge anymore. You might have mistaken the person!”
Isabelle quickly opened the bag and took out the address book.
Isabelle hurriedly walked up to Wesley and flipped to the page with “Watson” on it. “I carefully looked through it last night and found out that besides Warren, there was also someone with the surname Watson in my grandfather’s former business company. The Watson family is a medical dynasty!”
Her eyes were cold and clear. “Wesley, maybe Warren was framed. I’ve known him for five months and I don’t believe he’s that kind of despicable person. Maybe you had some misunderstanding back then.”
“Misunderstanding?” Wesley exclaimed, flipping the address book over in anger. “You’re defending him again! You even questioned Wesley’s involvement. I won’t say anything else, but his mask found on your grandfather’s heart is solid evidence!”

“Perhaps there was something suspicious about that mask. You also mentioned not being involved in your grandfather’s business back then. You are unaware of the details. Maybe it was the Watson family who had a grudge against your grandfather!”
“Based on intuition, you insisted on protecting Warren?”
It was intuition. But Isabelle shook her head firmly. “I am certain in my heart that he was not a person who would plot for wealth and harm lives!”
“Isabelle, I was so disappointed,” Wesley’s pupils completely turned cold. “Since you are so stubborn, I don’t need to cherish you anymore!”

He quickly gave a signal with his eyes. Two assistants next to him immediately came over, restrained Isabelle, and tied her to a chair.
They moved the chairs in front of the desk.
Wesley dumped her bag on the table and pulled out the black card.
Isabelle became strongly unsettled when she saw that it was Warren who had given her the embossed black card. “Wesley, what on earth do you want to do?”
The young man walked over, took the black card, and smiled deeply.
Wesley asked him, “Sir, are you ready?”
The man lazily glanced at the time. “It’s eleven o’clock. A good time to watch the news.”
He made a phone call. “Let that person jump off the building.”
Who jumped off the building? Isabelle furrowed her brow, a sense of unease welling up within her, instinctively linking it to Harmo Real Estate.

Warren…
She clenched her hand, wanting to reach for her phone, but Wesley had taken it away from her, turned it off, and removed the SIM card. His eyes were cold and icy. He stared at her, who was bound.
“Wesley!” Isabelle called out.
***
The owner of Harmo Real Estate’s five–star hotel project committed suicide by jumping off a building.
He was seriously injured and his life or death was unknown.
This news quickly made it to the headlines.
Warren received a call from Sheldon and when he woke up, it was already past noon.
Warren rubbed his forehead. He had slept unusually deeply, which was a bit abnormal.
He hurriedly walked downstairs, listening to Sheldon talking about an urgent matter, while pursing his lips and scanning the room.
Warren didn’t see Isabelle and frowned.
Warren called Maggie over. “Where did Ms. Spencer go?”
Tara walked over. “Bella just left in the morning. She said she was going to find Wesley.”
Warren furrowed his brow tightly, then relaxed it slightly.
She put on the ring. She said she wouldn’t leave him. She said she loved him.

He shouldn’t have been dreaming.
Warren’s cold heart warmed slightly. As long as she was by his side, nothing else mattered.
Warren changed into a suit and got into the car.
Sheldon’s face looked very bad, and his tone was anxious. “You came back from Hoolypool the day before yesterday and held a meeting for the hotel project cooperation company. You promised a compensation of one hundred billion. You always keep your word. This boss
suddenly jumped off the building and insisted that it was because you didn’t provide compensation for breach of contract!”
“The remaining 19 invested companies are all in chaos. Now they have all come to Harmo Real Estate to cause trouble, fearing that you will not provide them with the penalty for breach of contract!”
Warren’s eyes were icy and sharp. “This is a trap. Go investigate who bribed the boss who jumped off the building.”
Sheldon hesitated. Yes, this was definitely a trap!
“Did the person who jumped off the building survive?” Warren coldly furrowed his brow.
“He jumped from the 4th floor, got seriously injured, and is now in the hospital. But Mr. Levine, the impact he caused, is making other investment companies panic. They are afraid that you won’t compensate, and now they are probably gathered outside the Harmo Real Estate’s door, looking for you!”
Warren stood still.
The actual situation could be worse than they imagined.
At the entrance of Harmo Real Estate, Warren just got out of the car

and stood still, when countless reporters rushed over.
The capital company demanding compensation raised banners and called upon company employees to shout. They said they would not compensate, disregarding human lives!
Sheldon and a group of bodyguards were on high alert. Warren,
feeling cold all over, entered the company and instructed the executives, “Bring in the bosses of the 19 companies. I will personally hold a meeting. Calculate the total amount of penalties.”
Sheldon said, “A total of 18 billion dollars.”
For the president, it wasn’t a large amount. But for him to suddenly come up with so much cash…
Warren remained expressionless and composed. “Start liquidating all the available liquid assets of the companies under the SJ Group conglomerate,” he said.

Isabelle was tied to a chair. In front of her, the television on the wall was turned on by Wesley. On the news, Warren’s silhouette flashed before her eyes.
She looked at Wesley in disbelief. It turned out that Wesley had made the financing company boss intentionally jump off the building!
He and this young man framed Warren.
Originally, the compensation would have been sufficient. Harmo Real Estate would not have been worried. Now, a suicide has pushed Warren into a dead end.
Other venture capital companies caused trouble. The news made him have to come up with billions of dollars all at once.

Isabelle looked at him. His high fever had not subsided yet.
Wesley suddenly walked towards her.
Wesley’s eyes gleamed with twisted excitement. Hatred and greed radiated from within his eyes. He held a contract in his hand.
Isabelle looked carefully. It was indeed the overseas company that Wesley had forced her to sign a contract with, Harmo Real Estate.
At that moment, a young man brought in a blond–haired, blue–eyed man. He was wearing a bank uniform.
“Is this the bank president?” Wesley asked the young man.
The man nodded and glanced at Isabelle with a smile, picking up the black card on the table. “Mr. Clifford said your card can swipe Warren into bankruptcy.”
Isabelle suddenly trembled.
She looked at Wesley!
Wesley approached her and forcefully took her hand out of the rope.
“Wesley, what were you going to do?” She still couldn’t believe it.
