Chapter 280: Chapter 280 Cario’s Trial (1)
Luckily, he did not initiate the situation. Regardless of what Aron claid, he only needed to resist and attribute the bla to Aron for causing the conflict. This way, the Trade Chamber of Comrce officials would not have any leverage against him.
“Even if it is a misunderstanding, Mr. Zelasco has to co with us for the investigation.”
Cario naturally did not dare not to go. The people of the Chamber of Trade and Comrce were not soone he could afford to offend. These people are not only powerful but also mastered the group secrets of the four great families.
With an uneasy heart, Cario cos to the Trade Union office with the people of the Chamber of Trade and Comrce.
In the spacious and opulent conference room, the ceiling height reaches up to five floors, and a tense atmosphere pervades the entire space.
Upon entering the space, an unspoken heaviness was palpable.
Cario, who was still calm, was a bit flustered at the mont.
At that mont, besides the mbers of the Chamber of Comrce, there were also Daron White from the White family, Sean Miller from the Miller family, Joseph and Aron from the Kingston family present. The only person who was missing from the gathering was the president of the union.
Cario imdiately asked, "Why don’t I see President Naless? It was such a big situation, why didn’t he co here?"
Ryan said, "The President has other matters to attend to, so this has been handed over to . Do you have any comnts, Mr. Zelasco?"
Seeing that it was Ryan who spoke, Cario reluctantly shut his mouth.
Ryan was second only to the Chairman, and before, when the old Chairman was around, he highly valued Ryan, and they all thought that Ryan was the next Chairman.
He don’t know what happened, but suddenly a person nad Naless ca out, and all his grades were higher than Ryan’s.
Although many people in the eting room were not too satisfied before, they had to accept it, after all, it was the rule of the Trade Chamber.
Ryan continued, “Mr. Zelasco, I invited you here this ti because the White and Kingston families have jointly reported that you intend to provoke a peace among the four families.”
"I don’t understand," said Cario with a laugh. "Currently, my Zelasco family stands alone. However, the White family, which was previously married to the Miller family, now also intends to marry into the Kingston family. If you are saying that soone is trying to provoke the peace, then the White family should be considered as the most suspicious."
Daron’s expression was indifferent, not paying the slightest attention to his slander.
Ryan said, “But I have a recording here of the conversation between Mr. Zelasco and Mr. Kingston, listen to it.”
As the words fell, the recording was played out on the spot.
It was all about Zelasco’s denigration Renea and the White family’s conspiracy theories.
Daron’s fists that were placed on the conference table were tightly clenched bit by bit.
Cario’s face, too, gradually beca ugly.
“Honestly, I think we can make the first move. If you make a first move, I will certainly help you. At that ti, even if you were investigated, you will still have a reason for doing of all this.”
After the recording was finished, Ryan spoke again, “Mr. Zelasco, do you have any questions?”
“Of course I do.” Cario imdiately opened his mouth and said, “It’s just a recording, it didn’t prove anything. What’s more, I even suspect that it was intentionally synthesized by them to fra ."
“Then, let’s invite a witness.” Ryan ordered.
‘Witnesses?’
Cario, levied! ‘What witnesses?’
At that mont, the door of the conference room pushed open, and Janet walked in.
Seeing her Cario’s face instantly turned ugly and, in a panic, blurted out, “Janet, what are you doing here?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it, but it was too late.
“Mr. Zelasco, so you know Miss Janet?” Ryan said.
Cario didn’t say anything, and his face turned ugly.
Ryan looked at Janet and asked, “Miss Janet, tell
what you know.”
“Okay!” Janet nodded and slowly spoke, “I am Cario Zelasco’s adopted daughter. He adopted
when I was five years old. Originally, he was going to send
to the White family to impersonate the missing daughter of the White family.
During those years, he had been carefully cultivating
so that I would beco one of the best. However, it should have been God’s will, the grown-up
did not have a half resemblance to any of the White family, so he knew that if he sent
like this, the White family would certainly not believe it, instead he would still botch the whole things up, so he let
by his side.”
White saying all this, Janet didn’t have any expression on he faces, much less any emotion.
“Originally, I was very grateful to him for nurturing
so much, but... but I didn’t think that would reach out to a fourteen-year-old
with the devil’s hand.”
It was at this point of conversation that Janet’s emotions rose and fell just a little bit.
“Shut up!” Cario scolded her on the spot. He then said to Ryan, “What she is saying here is nonsense and has completely nothing to do with this ti.”
Ryan spoke, “Mr. Zelasco, I think what Miss Janet said has a lot to do with this incident. Miss Janet, please continue.”
“Cario has been hiding
very well all these years, even Lillian doesn’t know about it. However, after his divorce with Lillian, he felt that there was a crisis, so he asked
to get close to Renea and strike a good relationship with her.”
