"You've known her since my wedding day. You have the habit of hiding your mistresses inside an apartment and visiting them one by one. You said it yourself that my wife is a beauty," Vincent said. "All you did so far only makes you more suspicious, Mr. Maxwell."
'Ah, so this is the real problem. He simply fucked my business because he is suspicious of me.'
Gregory Maxwell didn't really understand what kind of ideas were plaguing Vincent Gray's mind, or maybe there was a competitor who wanted to drag him down by using Vincent Gray's anger and current unreasonable actions.
'Nevertheless, I need to keep my position. I cannot afford to lose the cooperation with the Gray family. My company has been relying way too much on them,' Gregory Maxwell thought.
He was still angry at Vincent, who dared to kick and step on him. But he knew his place, he would never be on par with Vincent, so it was better to be subservient.
"Mr. Gray, what you're doing is throwing accusations without any proof to me. What if it's not me? Maybe it's another millionaire that has worked with the Gray family for so long," Gregory Maxwell said.
Vincent Gray smirked, "I know that I'm just throwing baseless accusations on you. But I can flip your company upside down to find my family."
"T—Then if you don't find them?"
"Then I'll leave. I'll leave your company in shambles. You might file for bankruptcy in less than a year," Vincent said ruthlessly.
Gregory Maxwell knew that Vincent Gray was a vicious man, but he was saying crazy things.
'Crap, if he really did that. I'll really lose everything in less than a year,' Gregory Maxwell thought. 'There must be someone who wants to drag me down. Was it someone in the Gray family? I know everyone who worked with this crazy family are all treacherous!'
The old man didn't want to be destroyed alone. If he had to suffer Vincent Gray's craziness, he had to drag everyone inside their business circle!
"Mr. Gray, I feel wronged with the accusation. May I know if there is someone who has been giving you the idea that I'm the one who hides your wife? I bet it's one of my competitors, right?" Gregory Maxwell said as he got heated. "I know one of those scumbags is trying to accuse me so they can ruin my business!"
Vincent had predicted everything, including the fact that Gregory Maxwell would feel wronged by the baseless accusation.
"I can't tell you who gave me that information. But he is indeed someone from our business circle. He gave me all the information about millionaires who might've hid my wife and daughter," Vincent said. "I know my accusation is baseless. But I still have the power to make you go bankrupt. So, let's make a deal."
"A—A deal?" Gregory Maxwell had a bad feeling about this. He knew that Vincent Gray wouldn't make a deal that wouldn't benefit him, and he didn't care if the other party would be at a disadvantage.
"Yes, I will offer you a new contract tomorrow. Your company can work with me again, but only half of the previous portion from the old contract," Vincent said.
"Why can't I get the full work again?"
"Because I've gotten another supplier," Vincent sighed. "You're not the only one who wants to work with me. So I can only offer you half of your old contract."
"That's…"
'If I can only supply half of the material, that means my earning will be down by at least 40%. I can't allow that to happen in the long run,' Gregory Maxwell thought.
"Mr. Gray, can I do something to get my old contract back? This will hit my company severely!"
"You can, and that will be included within the deal," Vincent smirked again. He grew more malicious as time went on. He saw the desperation in the old man's eyes.
'Ah, truly, seeing someone so desperately clinging to me is a satisfying feeling to have,' Vincent thought.
"My deal is; Go use all of your connections to find that man who dared to hide my wife and daughter. You can accuse anyone in the business circle who might have seen Chloe and Mackenzie's face."
"But DO NOT let the media know about this, and you should not touch my daughter, who is still in school. I cared a lot about her," Vincent said, making sure the news didn't leak to the public, or it would be a shame for the whole family.
"If the news leaked to the media, I will make sure to destroy you and everyone in my list, bear that in mind."
Gregory Maxwell swallowed his saliva nervously. The deal was a battle royale between all the millionaires working with the Gray family.
They were going to accuse and fight each other just to desperately find who is the true culprit before all of them got a death sentence from the ruthless tyrant Vincent Gray.
"So, do you accept the deal or not?" Vincent asked. "If you're not going to accept it, then I'll give all of your old contract to another man instead. They would be joyful to know that they're going to be rich soon."
Gregory Maxwell clenched his fist. He knew there was no way he could escape Vincent's crazy agenda.
So he nodded unwillingly, "I'll try my best to find the culprit who hid your wife and daughter, Mr. Gray."
"Good, I expect a good result. I will keep half of your regular supply to my company until you can find the culprit. And don't worry, you're not the only one who will face me like this," Vincent said. "I will make sure to hunt whoever dared to hide my wife and daughter."
Mr Maxwell got nervous since he knew that Vincent wasn't playing around. However, he had one question left in mind.
"Mr. Gray, what would you do to the culprit behind all this once you find him?"
