"Okay, sure. I'll let someone tell you the whole story," Fade said and passed the phone to Caesar, saying, "Caesar, briefly summarize what happened back then. They can help us."
"Who is..." Caesar was confused. Could a simple phone call like this help settle all their problems?
However, since Fade had already said that, Caesar only followed his instructions. He told the man on the phone about the feud that took place between Jason and Lamont.
The members of the Cao family looked at them in disdain.
Henric was furious. He stared at Fade and scoffed, "Huh, are you calling for help? I wonder who dares to help you when they see us, the Cao family before them!"
Hayden looked at Fade triumphantly and declared, "You are in South Bay City and you are standing before Cao Medical Center. You are naive to challenge us here. As long as the medical industry in South Bay City still stands, the Cao family is impregnable."
Hayden was confident as he should be. After all, the Cao family were major players in the medical industry in South Bay City. They weren't only involved in the Chinese medicinal industry, but they were also involved with western medicine as well. The Cao family were stakeholders in most major medical services in the city.
In other words, the Cao family owned practically half the pharmaceutical industry in South Bay City.
It was because of that reason that Hayden was extremely arrogant.
Fade saw that and sneered at Hayden. He said, "Do you really think that the Cao family is all-powerful in South Bay City?"
"If so, what can you do about it?" Hayden glanced at Fade and replied, "What can someone like you do to threaten the Cao family?"
Fade only smiled and refused to argue with him. He then took the phone from Caesar and scrolled through his contacts. He called Sasha and said, "I don't care how you do it, I want you to completely place an embargo on all of the Cao family's business and trades in South Bay City."
After that, Fade hung up the phone and smiled faintly.
The three members of the Cao family heard what Fade said on the phone and looked at each other. They cackled.
"Haha, what a show-off. I'll give you credit for the amazing acting though."
"An embargo on the Cao family? Who do you think you are? What a fool!"
""He is just trying to play tricks on us."
Henric gritted his teeth and said, "Grandpa, dad, don't waste your time. He is obviously just trying to intimidate us. Hurry up and teach him a lesson."
Henric had been brutally beaten up by Fade twice in a row, and he absolutely despised Fade now. He waved his hands and all of the able- bodied fighters of the Cao family approached Fade.
With around thirty people surrounding him, Fade's eyes twitched as he shook his head and sighed, "I didn't want to resort to violence today, but you leave me no choice."
After that, he turned around and charged towards Henric.
Henric saw that and was instantly in horror. He quickly shouted, "Help me! Protect me now!"
The fighters of the Cao family lunged towards Fade ferociously.
Fade looked at these seemingly professional fighters and heaved a long sigh. He cracked his knuckles as he said, "That's all you got? What a waste of my time."
Fade smiled and said, "Don't worry. The man I called is really that powerful."
"Really? Who is he?" Caesar curiously asked.
Fade pointed upwards before telling him, "It's someone from Capital City, Director Qi of the Drug Administration."
Caesar was amazed and pleasantly surprised, "Director Qi? He isn't just a member of the Drug Administration, but he is also one of the members of the board, right? If he is the one overlooking this matter, then that's great news!"
Fade patted Caesar Tu on the shoulder and smirked, "I told you, don't worry. Everything will be fine."
"Brother Fade, thank you so much," Caesar finally had a smile on his face.
At that moment in front of the medical center, Hayden and Lamont had just managed to attend to Henric's broken leg.
Suddenly, Hayden's phone rang. He answered it impatiently and shouted, "What is it?"
The guy on the phone answered anxiously, "Mr. Cao, there's bad news! The equipment and raw materials we were importing has been confiscated at the Jade City harbor."
"What? How could that happen? I thought we had all the paperwork done?" Hayden roared.
The man answered, "We have used this route for the past four years and we had no problems with it. But it seems like we have offended someone important and they want to mess with us."
"Offended someone!?" Hayden recalled what Fade had said and his heart skipped a beat. He was horrified as he thought to himself, "Did Fade Chen really have the power to impose embargoes on the Cao family?"
