Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 799
Everyone was overwhelmed with puzzlement again as another commotion broke out.
The man looked at Melanie and said, "Miss Yu, do you still remember me? I am Lewis Chung. Emerald Plum Jewels owes a debt to the Chung family. I would like to ask for it now. Please pay up, Miss Yu!" His words startled everyone on spot.
Unexpectedly, the man was asking for debt from Melanie, the bride!
Seeing the situation at that moment, a momentary stun gripped the members of the Yu family, which was then followed by tense nervousness.
Melanie looked at Lewis and Graham. She gritted her teeth, revealing an angry expression, and said, "I didn't expect you two to collude..." Before she could finish her sentence, Lewis interrupted Melanie and said, "Miss Yu, please tell me how you want to settle the debt." Melanie's face was grim.
At this time, Graham added, "Mr. Lewis Chung is from the Chung family in Capital City. It's unwise for you to owe the Chung family such a debt." "The Chung family in Capital City!"
As soon as this title was uttered, the facial expression of many people changed drastically. They murmur of discussion sounded in an instant.
"The Chung family in Capital City, those business tycoons?"
"Apart from that Chung family, there is no other Chung family in the Capital City! It must be them!"
"I didn't expect that the Yu family had a conflict with the Chung family. Now, I'm afraid that they are in big trouble."
Some people sighed with emotion, and of course, some people didn't understand the situation, so they began to ask around.
"Based on what you said, the Chung family are businesspeople. The Yu family is going to have an alliance through marriage with the Yue family right now, who are a century-old martial arts aristocratic family. In this case, would the Yu family be afraid of the Chung family?"
"Yes, no matter how big their businesses are, without the support of the masters of martial arts, they do not have a firm hold in society! They would be easily defeated!"
Upon hearing this, some people who knew the real situation scoffed at once.
"You don't know how powerful the Chung family is at all! Do you think that the Chung family is an ordinary family who has a business in Westamor District? They are the top business tycoons in Capital City and possibly in the whole of the country. Their family businesses involve jewelry, fashion, medicine, cosmetics and so on. They are the tyrannical kings of the business world!"
"Do you think there is no supporting martial arts force behind such business tycoons? Even if there isn't, they could easily hire a group of masters to protect!"
"What's more, the Chung family is a native family in the Capital City, so you can't imagine how wide is their connection in the Capital City. Not to mention martial- arts forces, they would even know many important officials and big shots. As long as these influential figures stand out for them, the Yue family wouldn't dare do anything to the Chungs! After all, no matter how strong the Yue family is in martial arts, how could they compete with the power of the government?"
Upon hearing this, realization dawned upon the crowd suddenly. They couldn't help sighing with emotion.
"The Chungs are so powerful!"
"However, I don't really understand. Now, the Chung family is asking for a debt from the Yu family. What does that mean? Lewis seems to have a good relationship with Graham. The Yu family is the in-law of the Yue family now. Isn't Lewis opposing the Yue family now?"
"Yeah, now the Yue family is being pressured by Fade. It's not a big deal that Lewis doesn't help, but in contrast, he is asking for a debt from the Yu family. It doesn't make sense!"
The outsiders didn't understand what was going on, but Fade knew it more clearly than ever.
He remembered that Melanie had told him that the Emerald Plum Jewels of the Yu family had provoked a big shot in Capital City, causing their business to suffer a blow.
For this reason, the Yu family wanted to arrange an alliance with the Yue family. They asked Melanie to marry Yohannes. As a return, the Yue family would help them to solve the problem with the big shot in Capital City.
Now it seemed that the big shot in Capital City that the Yu family had offended was obviously the Chung family that Lewis belonged to. Moreover, judging from the close relationship between Lewis and Graham, it was very likely that they had known each other for a long time.
Thinking of this, the whole thing might have been a conspiracy from the beginning. The Chung family intentionally colluded with the Yue family. The Chung family was the attacking force, while the Yue family pretended to offer help. Together, they made this scam and fooled the Yu family into a trap.
The end result might be that the Yu family lost both their money and Melanie to their opponents. Melanie would be forced to marry Yohannes Yue, while the property of the Yu family would also be split between the Yue family and the Chung family.
Because of this, Melanie was in a rage when she saw Lewis and Graham being so close to each other just now. At this time, she finally understood that this was absolutely a conspiracy!
Now, Lewis stood up to ask for the debt from the Yu family. On the surface, it seemed that he was opposing the Yu family. But they knew of the relationship between Melanie and Fade. So, they took the opportunity to suppress Fade and used Melanie to force Fade to make concessions regarding the bet made by the Yue family.
However, those who didn't understand their inner relationship couldn't know this at all.
Graham and Lewis knew that Fade had known their intention, so they looked at him with a smile and their eyes were full of threats.
Fade's face darkened and he looked at Melanie.
Melanie wore an angry and anxious look on her face. She approached the few members of the Yu family and told them her idea without further ado.
However, Bailey, Qiana and the others could not believe what they had just heard.
"Melanie, your idea is ridiculous. You said that the Yue family colluded with the Chung family and fooled our family. How could it be possible?" "Melanie, I know that you still don't give up on Fade and you want to find an excuse to break off the engagement. It's impossible!"
"Auntie, I'm telling the truth. I..." Melanie tried her best to explain.
However, Bailey and Qiana did not want to listen at all. Or in other words, at this point, they didn't want to or dare not believe that it was a scam.
"Melanie, the Yue family won't go back on their word. They have promised us!"
"Yes, the Yue family promised to help us to solve the problem, so they contacted the Chung family in advance. It's normal for them to know each other because of this. You are thinking too much." Melanie couldn't convince her family members, so she couldn't help but look at Fade anxiously.
Fade understood her feeling and gave her a look of comfort. Then he looked at Graham and Lewis. He walked over and said directly, "You don't have to keep up this pretense. If you want to force me to give up the bet, you can just say it."
Graham smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, I don't understand what you mean!"
Lewis also laughed and said, "The Chung family has nothing to do with you. Don't think too much."
Fade's eyes turned cold and he said harshly, "I will definitely claim my end of the bet with the Yue family. As for Emerald Plum Jewels, I will not let anyone lay a finger on it. That's all."
Graham and Lewis's faces darkened as soon as they heard this. Then, they exchanged a look with each other and then sneered coldly.
