The Heiress's Return: From Zen to Zenith-Chapter 825 - : 412_1 Removing the Firewood

Chapter 825: 412_1 Removing the Firewood

“Ding-a-ling,” the phone rang again.

Butler Rinto, standing by the landline, picked up the phone without delay.

Gonzales Rinto had been closely watching Butler Rinto’s expressions, “Was that phone call really helpful? Who exactly is that young man, all secretive and mysterious. Half an hour has passed, we still have no clue about what has happened over there.”

Desta Rinto simply smiled without responding.

Gonzales looked at him, involuntarily furrowing his brows, “Why are you smiling?”

“I’m amused that the Rinto family’s crisis has been temporarily resolved.”

Getting to Starlyn Aria was impossible. After all, it’s not just the Rintos supporting him from behind. Back in the auction, it was a wonder how a local boss without any solid foundation like the Rintos won the bid given several large financial tycoons were competing too. The story behind all this was complex indeed.

In the past, that person also made considerable contributions to the Rintos. It’s a pity that he wasn’t one of ours, and his motives were different.

All the twists and turns within were something Guele Rinto and Pandawa Rinto, or even the Rintos’ enemies didn’t understand.

But Linden Sky, unexpectedly, seemed to understand everything about the Rintos.

Butler Rinto put down the phone with an indescribable look on his face, subconsciously glancing at the black-clothed young man in the tearoom.

“Just now, Bartlett Parker received a phone call and left with his team. However, Miss Guele has been taken into custody for assaulting a police officer.”

Starlyn Aria had survived the crisis for now.

All thanks to that phone call.

Gonzales Rinto was shocked, looking at the black-clothed young man emitting an air of mystery and elegance.

Silvia Hayes shot up from her seat, “What?”

She subconsciously looked at Linden Sky and finally understood. Linden had intentionally timed that phone call. He had already anticipated that Guele’s impulsive personality would have definitely sparked a confrontation with Bartlett. Unable to deal with Bartlett’s failure, the rage would have been vented out on Guele. If he couldn’t touch Starlyn Aria, why couldn’t he lay a finger on Guele?

So, she didn’t act against Guele earlier because she was waiting to kill her with a borrowed knife.

Now that all decision-makers of the Rintos were in custody, he had descended like a saviour. He had undoubtedly played his cards right.

Silvia looked at the boy in front of her, suddenly feeling a chill down her spine.

The charges of assaulting a police officer could be severe or mild. But the Rintos were already in a crisis, and the police would surely capitalize on this. It wouldn’t be easy to escape unscathed.

Especially when the other party hadn’t met their goals, all their anger would be directed at Guele.

“Linden, can you think of a way to help my mother?” Silvia pleaded softly.

She had confidence that he could do anything he wanted.

The stunning young lady had teary eyes and was pleading softly, making it difficult for any man to refuse.

However, the boy in front of her simply said, “You’re an adult now. You should be responsible for your actions, praying to Buddha won’t help.”

Silvia bit her lip, “I know that, but she’s my mother. How can I watch her suffer?”

“In a society based on law, evidence speaks the loudest.”

Silvia was left speechless, “What about my cousin? When can he be released? Can you save my cousin?”

If her cousin was unharmed, who would dare lay a finger on Guele?

Unfortunately, her mother still hadn’t understood this. She could only hope that this lesson would open her eyes.

Linden glanced at her. Silvia felt a chill and immediately closed her mouth.

The phone then began to ring incessantly, with Butler Rinto struggling to answer in time.

“There’s been a murder at Ocean Shipping….”

As Butler Rinto finished, Desta Rinto and Gonzales Rinto looked up in shock.

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.

They could sense a storm brewing.

Beside gambling, the Rintos’ most significant industry was shipping, which was the foundation of Pindo Rinto’s rise to prominence.

Pethkids was a coastal city, boasting the biggest harbour in the south. It oversaw the entire Bridoria River region, making them dominant in sea trade. Later, Agave Rinto opened up a new route from the upstream of the Bridoria River leading overseas. Since then, Ocean Shipping expanded internationally, owning dozens of cargo and mail ships as they continued to strengthen their position.

However, the public didn’t pay much attention to this sector. Agave Rinto deliberately concealed this news. The world only knew about the Rintos’ infamy, oblivious to the enormous wealth and capital they had amassed, which was incomparable to any ordinary wealthy family.

Shipping, a pillar of the Rintos’ business, was initially managed by Bosch Rinto, Agave’s grandfather. As it declined over time, the Rintos nearly faced bankruptcy. It was only after Agave’s return that it flourished once again under his charge.

Ricky Wood was Agave’s confidant and had always been responsible for shipping. Now that Ricky was taken away just before an incident had occurred at the shipping company, the link between these events was evident.

The Rintos were indeed in deep trouble now.

“Someone was killed? What exactly happened?” Silvia demanded.
