You, Me And Our Genus Twins

Chapter 243

Sebastian got his phone out and gave Lucas a call. After a rundown of the day's events, he told Lucas to send a message to the Shrivers.

Lucas was just as protective as Sebastian, so when he heard that his nephews got bullied at school and how malicious their actions were, he was incensed. "Leave it to me, Sebastian. I'll get it done at once!'

He had been feeling a tad bit bored the past few days, so this was pretty good timing.

Lucas was not going to rest until he gave that woman who bullied his nephews a lesson she would never forget!

As soon as he ended the call, he reached out to their family's investigators and asked them to find out who bullied his nephews.

Naturally, he was not about to take revenge on a kid.

That would be far too unbecoming of him.

However, an ill-behaved child reflected the parenting he received at home.

Therefore, the kid's family was going to pay for this.

Jayden's background was easy enough to look into. The investigators fed the information back to Lucas in next to no time.

Lucas snorted once he heard that it was the Shrivers' grandkid.

Here he was, wondering how elite of a family they were that they dared to pull such a stunt on his nephews, but it turned out to be the Oaksbury Shrivers.

While the Shrivers arguably had some influence in Dusktown, it was child's play compared to the Harts. In fact, he would not even need to rely on the Hart family's influence at all to deal with them. Even Caleb or Kieran could squish them like a bug if they wanted to.

Why would the Shrivers dare to bully his nephews when they were nowhere near as established as the Harts? What got into them?

After looking into Jayden's family, Lucas put the word out to strike against the Shrivers as quickly as possible, and as viciously as possible.

He wanted anyone who caught wind of this incident to realize that the Harts were not a family to be trifled with. Anyone who stood against the Harts, no matter who it was, was going to pay the price!


In the company, Lucas had the final say when Sebastian was away.

Therefore, his command was carried out at once.

The Shrivers did have some influence in Dusktown, so they did have some connections too.

Soon enough, they heard through the grapevine that Hart Corporation wanted to take them down.

When Clive Shriver heard the news from a friend of his, he was thrown for a loop. "Hart Corporation? Are you sure it's not a mistake? There's no conflict between us and the Harts, so why would they pick a fight with us all of a sudden?"

The Hart Corporation was the premier corporation in Elsenburg City.

Those in the corporate world often valued principles and peaceful cooperation. They would not easily step on someone else's toes without a valid reason.

Even Clive himself would take great care not to offend an ordinary person, so why would he get in the way of a corporate giant like the Harts?

"It's real," his friend said in a rush. "I heard that people from Hart Corporation reported your family to the authorities. Right now, the department of commerce, the internal revenue service, and even the anti-corruption commission are all gathering a team to look into your company. You need to hurry up and think of a way to sort this out. Maybe you could reach out to the Harts and see if you could resolve whatever it is that's going on between the two families, or else, it could be the end of the entire Shriver family!"

So many departments were going to look into the Shriver's business dealings. It would be one thing if they were completely clean, but if they were not, then the fines alone would be enough to deal a heavy blow to their company.

If the government bodies did manage to dig up any sort of illegal dealings, then the Shrivers would be done for!

Clive's friend took their many years of friendship into account and decided to give him a head's up, but he ended the call as soon as he could.

He wanted to minimize contact with Clive out of fear that he might get dragged into this too.

The reminder was solely due to their decades-long friendship.

After the call ended, Clive remained in a daze.

Why would his family get caught in the crosshairs, and with the Harts no less?

The Shrivers were nothing more than a small aristocratic family, while the Harts were one of the most prominent families in Dusktown.

He wrung his brain out trying to think of how they might have offended the Harts, but he could not think of anything.

Clive rushed home at once and called for an urgent family meeting.

His stern but frantic gaze swept across every single one of his family's faces as he asked gravely, "Tell me. Which one of you offended the Harts?"

This was the conclusion he landed on.

The Harts, being the pinnacle of the corporate world in Dusktown, would not act against the Shrivers for no apparent reason.

He was a hundred percent positive that he did not offend the Harts while conducting business around town.

If he was not the one who did it, then it had to be someone else from the Shriver family.

In order to find a solution to save the family business, he had to figure out who was the cause of this calamity.

His gaze fell upon his granddaughter-in-law. Queenie was ashen-faced and trembling ever so slightly.

Immediately, he honed in on her and barked, "Queenie, do you know something about this?"
