Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell



Chapter 647

"Why do you think I'm short on cash, Mr. Lyon?" Carlisle replied over the phone.

Zeke clenched his fists and asked, "What... What do you want?"

"I want the shares you have in Paradise Fishery."

"Dream on," answered Zeke.

He then abruptly hung up on the call.

Levi quickly asked, "Who was it, Zeke?"

Zeke relayed his phone conversation to his brothers.

"Who is he?"

"Isn't it obvious? He's probably someone Yara hired. She wants to control Paradise Fishery." "Does a bastard like her deserve to control Paradise Fishery?"

The brothers chimed in one after another.

Levi asked worriedly, "But will he become more aggressive if we don't agree with him?"

All their dirt from the past three years had been dug up. What about the shady stuff from the last two years?

Salem glared angrily, saying, "I'll have someone kidnap Yara. If she doesn't back off, I'll dump her in the lake tonight!"

Darwin nodded in agreement and added, "Have Black Boar do it."

Black Boar was the leader of a small local gang who had a decent relationship with the brothers. He would often help them out with their problems.

After careful consideration, Levi said, "Yara has Charles backing her. It won't be easy for us to do anything to her. Besides, Charles will definitely suspect us if something happens to Yara.

"It won't end well for us either if we are found out."

Upon hearing this, Salem and Darwin fell silent. Without Charles, Yara would never have made it this far.

Salem looked up at Zeke and asked, "What do you think, Zeke? We'll follow your lead." Darwin and Levi also looked up at Zeke. The latter sat slumped in his chair.

He closed his eyes and replied, "Let me think about it."

Paradise Fishery was the most powerful company in Yalville's seafood industry, with annual profits of over a hundred million dollars.

The ten percent share he owned would be worth over ten million dollars a year.

Although the listed company he owned also had annual profits exceeding 100 million dollars, he only received about 20 million dollars. By comparison, his own company was slightly more profitable.

However, if the Lyon brothers sold all their shares, they would completely cut ties with

Paradise Fishery, a company valued at approximately 1.5 billion dollars.

At that moment, Levi's phone rang.

Levi took out his phone and answered, "Who's this?"

"Time is running out for you all. I also heard you have committed some heinous crimes. Compared to those, tax evasion and fraud seem trivial, don't they?" Carlisle continued sinisterly.

Upon hearing this, Levi started to sweat. He had an accident while driving drunk in the past. He later found someone to shoulder the blame for him. He wondered if his misdeed had been discovered.

"I'm willing to sell my stake in Paradise Fishery," exclaimed Levi in a hoarse voice.

Carlisle hung up immediately.

Zeke squinted and asked, "Did he call you?"

Levi nodded listlessly.

"Yeah. He's aware of our tax evasion. He even said we've committed some heinous crimes."

Salem yelled angrily, "He's threatening us! This is blackmail and extortion. We should

report him to the police and have him arrested.

"Even if it means burning all our bridges, it's better than letting him get away with this. The more you fear someone like him, the more reckless he becomes!"

Darwin was at a loss as he replied, "Do you know who he is?"

Salem sneered and replied, "He wants our shares, right? We'll meet him at some point."

Darwin sighed and said, "We're all old now. How many more years do we have left to live?

"The quest for money is neverending, and we can never make enough of it. Let's just forget about it."

Upon saying this, he turned and left.noveldrama

Levi sighed. He then turned to leave as well.

"Zeke, do you feel the same way? This has Yara and Charles' names written all over it!"

Salem looked unhappy as he continued, "Are we really going to let a bastard who just returned to the Lyons take over our family's business?"

Zeke laughed bitterly and said somberly, "Forget about it. Yosef was the one who started Paradise Fishery. He gave us the shares out of love.

"Over the years, we started our own businesses with the money made from the shares.

"Darwin is right. We only have a few years left to live. Even if we're not thinking about ourselves, we should at least consider our grandchildren. Let's enjoy our twilight years."

Yara stayed in a luxurious four-bedroom home in the Paradise Fishery residential area.

At that moment, she was arranging her documents at her desk when the phone rang. Yara picked up the receiver and asked, "Who is this?" "Yara, it's your grandfather."
