Chapter 1671 A Change Of Plans
Steven’s face darkened. “That makes sense to me. I’ll give Evan a call and ask him about it.”
He took out his phone and made the call.
The answer he received was that Evan had decided to let Kyle deal with it. If he wanted to resolve the issue, he had to find Kyle.
Steven thought for a while before giving Sally the phone. “You call Kyle right now! Tell him to give us back the chip, and he can come to pick you up immediately.”
Sally hesitated.
Skyler was mumbling at the side that she was a member of the Maupay family, and so she should place her family above everything else. The chip was the result of decades of their family’s hard work, and it would be unfair if Juan got to keep it after stealing it from them.
He ended his rant by saying there was nothing wrong with wanting to get back the chip, something that belonged to them.
Steven also persuaded Sally as well. Under both of their relentless convincing, Sally forced herself to call her partner.
The call was quickly connected.
“Kyle, did Juan really steal our chip?”
Kyle stared at the chip in his hand and didn’t answer.
“Kyle, that chip is the work of the Maupay family for more than a decade. It’s too unfair to us that Juan gets to keep it after stealing it…”
“Sally, when your dad came to us to apologize, he promised to destroy the chip. Well, the chip’s destroyed, so that’s the end of this matter!”
“Destroyed?” Sally frowned as she glanced at her father and brother.
“Yes, the chip’s destroyed. It won’t hurt anyone anymore!”
Sally let out a sigh of relief. “It’s better that it’s destroyed. No one needs to worry about it anymore.”
Skyler bit his lip and exclaimed, “How can you say that? That is the product of more than a decade’s worth of our family’s labor!”
“That chip is used for revenge, right? But the grudge against Evan is just a misunderstanding. Since there’s no more need for revenge, why should we keep the chip?”
“Sure, the grudge between our family with the Seet family is just a misunderstanding, but we still have a score to settle with Lucas! We can use that against him! Besides, the Seet family is the head honcho of Y City. Can you guarantee that when our family rises again, they won’t try to take us down? The chip is all we have to protect ourselves! But now, it’s destroyed! If you ask me, you and Kyle should deal with our grudge against Lucas!”
“I agree with your brother. I’ll let you and Kyle handle the matter of taking revenge against Lucas. This way, Kyle also gets to take revenge against Lucas for framing Evan. There is no one better than you two to deal with him.”
Sally smiled. “What will you two do while we take revenge?”
“We’ll continue our work to make the Maupay family great again, of course. You have to understand something, Sally. Our family’s position and your position in the Seet family are intricately linked. If you don’t have our support, you won’t get any respect when you’re living with them.”
Is that really true? A woman’s position in her partner’s family is intricately linked with her own family’s power? Well, regardless if it’s true, I agree that our family can’t continue to stay hidden like this. It’s time to think about the future. Sally let out a sigh.
She gave it some thought and said, “I’ll do my best to handle the revenge! So, can I go back to Imperial Garden whenever I want now?”
“You can, after you find Lucas and take revenge!”
She thought about how depressive her mother had been for the past few years as well as the things Lucas had done before nodding reluctantly. “Okay, I promise. I want to see Mommy first.”
Steven let out a sigh of relief once his daughter left.
“It’s definitely appropriate that you’re letting Sally and Kyle handle the matter of revenge, Daddy. Now that we have time, we should seek out the treasure.”
Steven sighed again. “I don’t think Kyle has really destroyed the chip. It’d be too foolish for him to do so. After all, if he can build upon the foundation of the chip provides, he can create an even more powerful version of it. It’ll be a win if he uses it against Lucas, especially since Lucas has a bunch of fanatics following him. To us, they’re like a hidden blade waiting in the darkness for the opportunity to strike, so we mustn’t let our guards down!”
