Chapter 224
After Steve left, Chris’ face darkened ominously.
Kevin glanced at Chris, opened his mouth, but found himself at a loss for words.
Fred had been obviously furious when he left just now.
And for good reason!
Now, with the Lucano Group's ore almost their sole alternative source, that path had been irrevocably blocked.
The Ashford Group was on the brink of disaster.
Chris closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and hissed a name. “Stephanie!”
He was not expecting that the heir of the Lucano Group would protect her.
Hearing his tone, Kevin felt a jolt.
Steve's words had clearly implied that all of this was somehow connected to Stephanie.
After a moment of contemplation, Kevin decided to remind Chris.
The Hart Group is also in big trouble now, supposedly related to Skyriver Travel.”
Upon hearing this, Chris turned his head slightly and glanced at Kevin.
“Skyriver Travel?”
“The company that made Miss Giovanni a few million,” Kevin explained.
Last year, Stephanie’s incof seven million included over six million from Skyriver Travel.
Her actual collaborations outside were only worth a few hundred thousand, a normal profit for an ordinary studio.

Recalling how they had tried to blacklist Stephanie's stuand even called Skyriver Travel, only to be scolded by
the other party.
That arrogant attitude still darkened Chris‘ face whenever he thought about it.
He sneered, “It has something to do with Stephanie, right?”
Kevin lowered his head silently. Clearly, this matter was related to her.
“Who is the boss of Skyriver Travel?” asked Chris.
Job Hogg, a foreigner.”
Chris froze for a moment. No wonder he didn’t understand the local situations in Long Harbor and dared to
openly support Stephanie.
A trace of annoyance flashed through his eyes, and his voice deepened, “I underestimated Stephanie. | really
underestimated her!”
After a moment of contemplation, Chris ordered in a deep voice, “Find out more about this man and see what his

relationship with Stephanie is.”
‘Ridiculous. Recently, no matter which event, everything seemed to circle back to Stephanie. It was simply
maddening!” He mused in his mind.
Kevin nodded, “Okay.”
He paused for a moment, then cautiously asked, “So... Did the Old Mr. Ashford just meet Mr. Lucano?”
At the mention of this, Chris face darkened even more.
“Whispering Bay belongs to the Lucano family.”
Kevin's pupils shrank in surprise, “What? You mean, Miss Giovanni has been getting close to someone from the
Lucano family recently?”
Chris’ expression was terrifyingly gloomy. “All right, never mind.”
The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became. ‘Why was Stephanie involved in everything? Was
she a social butterfly who could connect with anyone?”
Seeing Chris’ expression, Kevin dared not ask further. But inside, he was still in shock.
The Lucano family were a top-tier aristocratic family.
If Stephanie related to the Lucano family, it would not be surprising that she had something to do with Skyriver
Travel.
As Chris turned, his phone buzzed again. This twas a message from Fred.
[Try harder with the Lucano Group.]
He didn’t even bother to call.
Clearly, Fred was annoyed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter all, in Long Harbor, there were few things Fred couldn’t handle personally.
But this matter was just so thorny.
Chris was equally annoyed to see the message.
He replied with two words. [Got it!]
[We suffered serious losses. If we don’t have a remedy in time...]
Fred probably didn’t know how to describe the gravity of the situation, so he left it there.
But Chris also understood the stakes involved.
He replied. [Understood.]
He knew, but the real problem was how to deal with it-a huge trouble.
At the hospital, when Olivia saw Chris‘ one-word reply, “Yes,” she felt totally drained.
