Chapter 1237 Streak of Bad Luck
Kenton slammed his phone onto the desk.
“Didn’t you say things would go smoothly? How did the couple end up getting arrested?” Kenton was so furious that he was getting a headache.
He had been irritable during the conference earlier. Some investors who had previously decided to increase their funding for his ventures had suddenly become hesitant and decided to wait and see before making a decision.
Kenton couldn’t understand it. How could any other family compete with the Wray family? Moreover, everything had been going well in their discussions. Now, suddenly, everything had fallen apart.
He was understandably bitter. What was even more baffling was that some investors he had good relations with asked him, “Have you offended anyone recently?”
Offend someone? People should be worried about offending the Wray family, not the other way around!
Well, perhaps the Quinnell family was an exception. He had investigated this
as well.
Albert was reputed as a rising star in Winnow Street’s venture capital scene. He excelled at helping the company buy funds and stocks, never failing once.
But that was just stock trading and investment. It wouldn’t make investors back off suddenly. Other than Albert, there was no one else in the Quinnell family involved in such matters.
Kenton felt like he was on a streak of bad luck, with one problem after another coming his way. “Didn’t you teach them how to cause a scene?”
-Adrien paced closer. “I did. It was working well initially. According to those on the scene, a female student was meddling and exposing the Chadwick family. After that, no one sympathized with them anymore.”
“A female student?” Kenton found it hard to believe. “How would she know
about the Chadwicks‘ situation?”
“They say she was a classmate of the deceased girl and had heard a lot about

the family. The most significant issue was that the couple foolishly checked their insurance messages on their phones right at the gate.
“That was how the girl managed to see the screen and expose their intentions
on the spot.”
How incredibly stupid!
Kenton’s expression grew darker with Adrien’s words. “Things will get
complicated with them arrested. That couple could ruin everything for us. Find
connections and think of a way to get them out.”
The insurance situation shouldn’t have been known to anyone. If Astrid or Steve spilled something detrimental under police custody, it would cause big problems!
Who was this meddling girl? She was infuriating!
He feared that the case of Vanessa, a mere girl from the poor, could expose all of Club Solstice’s affairs.
Kenton squinted and felt less secure for the first time. “Get more people to check the club. Find out what’s really happening.”

Meanwhile, in the depths of Club Solstice, the crow was flying ahead, but he, seemed to hit an invisible barrier.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t get through and eventually returned to Dalton’s shoulder. “My lord, we really can’t get in. We need a cultivator to open
it.”
The crow observed Dalton’s expression as he spoke, “It wouldn’t be safe to bring just anyone. After all, part of your soul is in there.
“Bringing Ms. Quinnell would be safest. After all, the Celestial Dragon listens to her now, and Wolf is by her side. It won’t be dangerous.”
The crow was driven by his ambitions. He hoped for Dalton to return to how he was before his slumber.
However, Dalton remained silent. He seemed to be contemplating through the endless black mist. It seemed as though he was unwilling to destroy what he had now.
