Chapitre 10: Sincerest apologies
Later that afternoon Brandon Chen was released by the police. Even though him and Richard planned the whole take over, they were smart enough to cover their tracks. The only people arrested were those underlings who Brandon had turned against the Wu's.
"Damn how could this happen. The entire company was confiscated, how did they find out everything I was sure we covered all our bases."
Just then he received a call from his wife Susan. He looked at his phone and saw dozens of missed call.
"I better talk to her and calm her down. She probably talked to Richard and got scared by me being takin in."
As he answered he call he was met with a shock.
"Brandon were are you. Please hurry back something bad has happened"
Brandon was confused "calm down what is going on."
Just then Susan started crying.
"The bank is here they said that they are confiscating all of our property including the house."
The phone dropped out of Brandon's hand and his face was pale. How could this be he was sure that with Richard connection at the bank he could hold off the debt collection till he figured something else out. He quickly picked up his phone and called Richard.
"Richard what is going on I thought your people at the bank could hold off the debt, why are they taking everything?"
Just then on the other end Richard just responded. " Mr Chen I'm sorry for that but is appears that there was nothin they could."
He then followed upped " after in light of everything that has happened to the Chen family I think it would be best if we both go our separate ways"
As Richard said this Brandon eyes turned red. "Richard are you seriously abandoning me, don't forget that you are engaged to Lisa"
"Mr Chen after evaluating everything I have decided to cancel the engagement. Please break the news to Lisa and give her my condolences"
Just then Richard hung up. Brandon was furious he quickly ran back to his house. When he got there he saw Lisa and Susan standing out side crying. As soon they saw him Lisa ran towards him.
"Dad what's going on. They have taken everything, I tried calling Richard but he won't answer. Why is this happening."
Brandon only lowered his head. "Lisa, there was nothing Richard could do and because we are in this state he has decided to end your engagement"
Lisa stood there shocked. Richard called off the engagement, he doesn't want to marry me. Lisa then realized that to Richard she was just a tool and her family was was just something that could be thrown away. She had caught him cheating several times but was told to deal with it by her family.
Then her mother stepped in.
"What do you mean the engagement is off? How could he do that we have done so much for him"
Brandon tried to calm her down. He had to get them all to be level headed to try and figure out how to bounce back. Then Susan dropped a bombshell.
"Come along Lisa. Since he is unable to provide I think I should go talk to you real father."
Brandon jaw dropped
"What do you mean real father. I am her real father.
Susan just giggled
"You see one DNA test that I provided and didn't even bother to verify. While she will never fully be accepted by his family they would handsomely pay us to keep quite about her existence. Who knows they may even setup a good marriage for her"
Lisa and her mother walked away. Brandon was just standing there with nothing . No family no allies.
In his apartment Richard sat on his couch trying to figure out just what happened to day. somebody pulled some strings and got the Wu company taken down and got Andy Mo arrested. All Richard could think about is who would have that power. Then his eyes lit up and he realized who. MASTER YANG!
Over at the Wu residence. Amy her mother and grandfather were cleaning up from cooking all day and getting stuff ready for the next day. As Amy was washing vegetables with her grandfather her cell phone ring. She got up went into the other room and answered it. Five minutes later she came in to the kitchen yelling.
"Mom Grandpa come here you have to see this"
The two got up and follow her and looked that tv. She got call from a friend telling her to turn on the news after she did she saw the news about what happened to Wu company and all the people who betrayed them. They didn't know how to react. Amy's grandfather couldn't believe it.
Just then there was a knock at the door. Amy quickly went to answer it. As she opened the door she saw Stacy Lin standing there in front of them. Amy knew Stacy worked for the bank that held their debt. When she saw her she was afraid that they were here to collect or something, they had some money but not enough to make this months payment.
"Stacy it's been a while why are you dropping bye out of the blue"
"Good evening miss Wu, may I come in?"
Amy invited her in. Her mother and grandfather were still watching the news. When they saw that somebody from the bank had come they both got a little nervous. then Elizabeth walked towards Stacy with a very nervous look on her face. But before she could even get a word out Stacy bowed.
"Mr and Mrs Wu on behalf of the bank I would like to offer our sincerest apologies."
The three of them were stunned. What just happened? apologies? what?
Stacy continued
"It has come to our attention that the debt placed on your family was do to a former employees wrong doing. Thus our owner wishes to return to you all of your property that was wrongly confiscated."
The Wu's couldn't believe what they were hearing. The bank was returning all of they're property. How the property was held by Brandon Chen how could the bank do this?
