I Was the Stepping Stone novel Chapter 118

Chapter 21

Tristian’s face suddenly changed.

“Say it again, what happened to the company?”

The assistant looked back at him cautiously.

“The government, as well as the company, went bankrupt…”

He grabbed the assistant by the neck and cursed for the first time in his life.

“What the fuck are you talking about!”

The assistant tremblingly handed him the phone.

He grabbed the phone and quickly read the contents on the screen.

After he had sent Coby’s mistress for an abortion last time, she harbored resentment.

I directly reported the embezzlement of public funds by Coby, who was the chairman.

The task force immediately organized investigators to go to the company for investigation.

It was discovered that Coby lost billions of dollars due to gambling, of which he embezzled a staggering 7.3 billion from

the company’s funds.

This directly led to the company losing its cash flow and being bankrupt.

Because Coby embezzled a large amount of public funds and did not return them, he was sentenced to more than ten

years or life imprisonment.

After confirming, they took Coby away from the hospital overnight.

Throughout the entire report, Tristian saw nothing but darkness.

Finally, when I arrived at the company, I found that the entrance was already surrounded by groups of employees and workers who had been protesting for their wages.

In desperation, he could only sneak in through the back door.

The entire company was in chaos.

Finally arriving at his own office, he saw Kiana rushing out from inside.

I held him tightly, with tears and snot streaming down my face, crying and asking what to do in the future.

Tristian was preoccupied with the company’s bankruptcy and had no time to deal with Kiana.

Just let the assistant take her away.

He sat back on the chair, listening to the noise downstairs, his eyes filled with confusion. Chapter 21

Finally, he borrowed from everyone in his circle, trying to borrow some money to ease the situation.

The Eldred Group was a bottomless pit, and the money invested in it yielded no returns.

For this, they all refused one after another.

Until it got dark, he didn’t borrow a single penny.

He walked to the French window and looked at the bustling traffic on the street. For a moment, he wanted to jump down

like that.

As soon as he thought about his helpless mother and the still unfound Emerson, he quickly shook his head and dismissed this dreadful thought from his mind.

For the next month, the company underwent liquidation.

After the whole process, the Eldred family disappeared from the upper circles.

Homeless, he remembered his marital home with Emerson.

At that time, he loved Emerson to the extreme and bought two villas in her name.

During the divorce, Emerson found these villas dirty, so he never took them back.

He directly returned the villa to him.

Because they were considered as Emerson’s property, these villas were not seized.

He assigned Kiana to one of the buildings.

He drove to the villa in the outskirts.

Since he drugged Lindsey and the gang and left them here, he hasn’t cared anymore.

Later, I heard the bodyguard on duty say that after Lindsey woke up, she stabbed several people to death.

Originally, I was planning to send her to prison, but unfortunately, she was diagnosed with a mental illness before being

incarcerated.

He had no choice but to continue keeping people locked up here.

In the villa, when Lindsey saw the news of the Eldred Group’s bankruptcy on the television, she started laughing hysterically again.

Just at that moment, the villa door was pushed open by someone from outside.

A tall figure walked in slowly.
