Chapter 332 Shadow Gate
Caspian could not be bothered to waste his time and energy listening to Alton’s rambling.
He only needed to report the significant points.
Caspian really wanted to know the total worth of the Hoff family’s assets.
This was more important to him. Once they confiscated their assets, it would be a good
thing for Diatoran.
He did not care about the other matters as they were trivial to him.
“Everything the Hoff family owns added up to a total worth of 80 billion dollars. These
include famous paintings, jewelry, and real estate,” Alton said as he quivered with fear.
“What? Isn’t the Hoff family worth hundreds of billions of dollars? How could it only be 80
billion dollars?
“Could it be that you have pocketed the rest?” Caspian said as he scowled.
He glared at Alton. It was as if his piercing eyes could almost see through Alton.
The air around them seemed to grow heavy.
Caspian’s malicious energy suffocated Alton.
His body stiffened, and he was at a loss.
He felt like he was really going to die.
It was only then that Alton could finally comprehend how powerful Caspian was.
His every move, even one look from him, could make people feel unprecedented fear.
How strong was Caspian?
Alton began wondering about the extent of Caspian’s strength. As the Diatoranian God of
War, he should be the most powerful person in Diatoran.
His strength should be at the level of a supreme grandmaster or even higher.
“Lord Caspian, I have personally supervised the entire operation. All my subordinates can
testify that I have not taken a single cent!” Alton explained with urgency.
Tears had started welling up in his eyes.
He was afraid that Caspian would remove him from the governor’s position.
He did not want to be wrongly accused. He had spent the first half of his life working his
fingers to the bone in order to become governor.

Losing this position would mean losing everything.
“But is it possible that Charles, the God of Gambling, only has 80 billion worth of assets?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWould you believe it?
“Where’s the rest of the assets?” Caspian asked coldly.
Where could the remaining hundreds of billions worth of assets be? If they did not get to
the bottom of it, this would be a huge loss to Diatoran.
The finances of the entire Southlake City might not even amount to hundreds of billions.
If Alton or the others had stolen the assets, Caspian would definitely not show any mercy
to
them.
He would be sure to punish Alton severely!
“Lord Caspian, I’m really innocent! Charles is a cunning man. He had been transferring
their family’s assets discreetly for decades.
“He had used various means to transfer the properties!” Alton said as he burst into tears.
“If you hadn’t taken action in advance, I’m afraid he would’ve already transferred all of
their
assets away,
“he continued.
Alton had looked into the Hoff family’s casinos, villas, and some of their real estate
properties.
These were all immovable estates. These estates alone amounted to 80 billion dollars.
As for the remaining portion, Alton had zero clue about where Charles had transferred
them
1. to.
Besides, this was the most critical time of their operation. He would not dare to disrupt the
flow.
Caspian nodded after hearing his explanation.
Charles was more cunning than he had expected.
At first, he had kept his true powers hidden. But now, he had even managed to transfer a
large portion of his assets in advance.
It seemed like Charles had expected that a day like this would come.
If he had not stopped Jean in time, all of their assets could have already been transferred
abroad.
Hundreds of billions worth of assets was not a small amount for Diatoran.
Caspian’s silence made Alton anxious.

After Alton left the suite, Sylvia came forward and asked, “Caspian, are we really leaving?”
“Yes. I’ve been here for too long. It’s time I go back and be with my wife,” Caspian said
while nodding.
Just thinking about Willow put a smile on his face.
“By the way, Alton wasn’t lying, was he?” Caspian asked.
He still did not trust Alton fully, which was why he had Sylvia investigating Alton in secret.
“He wasn’t lying. He was personally involved in the operation,” Sylvia replied.
They were at a critical juncture, so Alton would not dare to lie to Caspian.
If he dared to block the flow of their operation, it would only lead to his death.
“These cunning old men!” Caspian scoffed..
Dealing with Charles was more difficult than he had expected. He had actually planned for
his escape ten years in advance. It was surprising that Charles was such a foresighted
person.
Sylvia understood what Caspian was trying to say. The “cunning old men” he referred to
were
Charles and Alton.
“Have you also found out who was the one who took Charles away?” Caspian asked.
“I’ve tried using the intelligence network but to no avail. There was nothing I could find
out about Shadow Gate,” Sylvia replied.
Caspian’s face hardened.
Sylvia had been with him for a long time and had many
informants in Diatoran as u
The intelligence organization was also well–established, so it came as a surprise and a bit
of a disappointment that she could not find anything about Shadow Gate.
It seemed like Shadow Gate had hidden themselves really well.
Moreover, their prowess was not like the others. Even a senior member of theirs was an
innate grandmaster. This could only mean that the other members were equally powerful
as well.
It seemed like there were more forces in Diatoran that had yet to reveal themselves.
“Caspian, do you need me to continue arranging for more people to investigate?” Sylvia
asked cautiously.
