Chapter 857 All Sent To Prison
Morgan’s expression was profoundly serious as he quickly responded, “It seems Mr. Russell hasn’t seen today’s news. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so confident.
The moment those words were spoken, Larry, who was standing behind Dexter, could not help but feel guilty. A fleeting shadow of gloom passed over Dexter’s brow. “Mr. Bastille, you always have a habit of speaking too soon.”
His long legs were crossed, and his posture was surprisingly relaxed. “Just like when you left the country, there was a power struggle within the Bastille family. Your mother insisted that you would be the one to take charge of the Bastille family. And what happened? You were forced to live abroad for many years, only to wait until today? Your mother’s already sixty-five this year, isn’t she?”
To outsiders, Dexter often appeared aloof yet gentle. However, once provoked, his cold viciousness far exceeded that of Morgan.
Morgan’s expression changed. “Mr. Russell, your investigation is really thorough. I hope there are no members of the Russell family within the Bastille family.”
Only those on the inside knew about the internal strife within the Bastille family years ago.
Dexter just laughed. “I look forward to you finding it out, Mr. Bastille.”
With official matters settled, every word spoken now was personal.
In fact, as the most prominent groups in the two cities, Russell Group and Bastille Group could have potentially collaborated. However, one of Morgan’s uncles from the Bastille family caused chaos and schemed to get the energetic Morgan abroad. Consequently, Dexter missed the opportunity to connect. with him.
They never expected to have a chance to cross swords again.
“Though the Bastille family was in chaos, I’ve already calmed everything. What about the Russell family? Mr. Russell, you were able to send your own uncle to prison. Your methods are more ruthless than mine.” Morgan idly tapped on the table. “But aside from one uncle, how many others have you not dealt with? Are the directors of Russell Group behaving themselves?”
Naturally, Dexter knew that Morgan was implying something.
He chuckled lightly. “Even if we send them all to prison, what difference does it make?”
His casual remark stirred a wave of emotion in Morgan’s eyes.
That was because the other party did not seem to be joking, but he could actually pull it off.
Dexter’s methods were ruthless, and Morgan had heard of it. He quickly realized something. “I heard that the Russell family is about to have a marriage alliance with the Olsen family. With this kind of confidence, it’s indeed understandable.”
That crucial sentence had unknowingly struck a chord in someone’s heart.
Dexter maintained a calm expression. “Instead of worrying about my personal affairs, Mr. Bastille, perhaps you should focus on your own.”

After saying that, he stood up and left the conference room accompanied by his subordinates.
Ryan, looking surprised, asked Morgan, “What does he mean?”
Morgan just stared at the retreating figure of Dexter with his brows furrowed. He is a formidable opponent.
Upon entering the office, Larry closely followed the man and carefully chose his words. “There’s a piece of gossip about Morgan today, but I don’t dare to show it to you.”
The moment those words were spoken, it was clear that a certain person was also involved in the gossip.
Dexter loosened his tie and patted his large hand on Larry’s shoulder. “Didn’t I tell you? Everything about. him needs to be reported to me.”
This action seemed ordinary, yet the force behind it was so intense that it made Larry’s entire arm ache as if his bones were throbbing in pain.
Bearing the pain, he said, “It’s my fault. I was just worried that you would be upset over someone like Morgan. It’s not worth it.”
“News.” Dexter’s expression was completely filled with hostility.
Larry struggled to pull out his phone, found the piece of news, and placed it in front of Dexter.
The headline was eye-catching, and so was the photo.
Josie’s figure was slender and graceful, and she appeared even more charming from the hidden camera’s angle. Her delicate waist, which he had caressed countless times, was now under the firm grasp of Morgan’s hand.
Dexter closed his eyes, and a destructive temper was brewing within him.
