Chapter 519 Hand Over Hazel’s Recorder and I’ll Spare You
Chloe remained motionless, her extended eyelashes hiding the glint in her eyes as she let out a self-deprecating
chuckle. She knew that this was her own decision and that she would have to face the consequences.
The day had been long and draining, leaving her utterly fatigued and unwilling to utter a word. She felt tired. If she
was asleep, she would not have to think about anything.
Fortunately, this was the final month. Soon, there would be a resolution. Yet, amid a fleeting moment of relief, an
even heavier burden settled upon Chloe’s heart.
Meanwhile, Joseph drove to the Whitman Group. His secretary gave him the enterprise project plans for the latter
half of the year. To his surprise, he saw Edgar’s office among the applications. He found it hard to believe that
Edgar still had the nerve to apply for a project. with the Whitman Group.
Joseph’s anger surged, and he grabbed a pen, forcefully crossing out Edgar’s name and inadvertently tearing the

“Notify everyone that the Whitman Group will no longer engage in any business with Edgar Cottrell,” he ordered,
“Any companies currently collaborating with him will no longer have any opportunities with us as well.”
The secretary was taken aback. It was evident that Joseph was determined to cut off all ties with Edgar. From this
moment on, nobody in Docwood would help or work with the Cottrells any longer.
Joseph looked at the secretary and said, “Understand?”
“Yes, Mr. Joseph. I’ll take care of it right away,” the secretary hurriedly replied.
Within just a few hours, Edgar’s company received numerous contract cancellations. All of its employees were now
facing unemployment, and the company was forced to dissolve.
As Edgar witnessed the chaotic scene in his company, he trembled and collapsed to the floor. He could not fathom
how Joseph could be so merciless. Making him lose billions was not enough. Joseph wanted to push him to the brink
of destruction.
Refusing to accept this dire outcome, Edgar resolved to go to the Whitman Group and demand an explanation.
However, fate had other plans for him. On his way there, he collided with an oncoming truck. Though he did not die
instantly, the ambulance crew issued a critical condition notice.
Joseph received this news while he was at Gabriel’s villa.
As Samuel enjoyed his salmon, he chuckled. “Well, karma is truly a bitch.”

As a lawyer, he had taken on many morally ambiguous cases. He felt the need to visit the church, confess his sins,
and seek forgiveness. He dreaded meeting a fate similar to Edgar’s.
“Is it just a coincidence or is there something more?” Nathan asked, finding it eerie. “Two car accidents involving
the same family within one day. It’s too strange.”
Swirling his highball, Joseph replied calmly, “It’s a coincidence.”
Perhaps it was merely the result of their own actions catching up with them.

Just as he was about to hang up, Joseph interrupted, “Answer it.”
Samuel hesitated for a moment before answering.
“Tell Joseph that he’s maliciously monopolizing the market and that my father got into a car accident while on his
way to confront him. Moreover, concerning Hazel’s death, he has to provide us with proper compensation.
Otherwise, we’ll escalate the matter and ensure he loses the projects that Docwood City Council will grant at the
end of the year!”
The projects granted by Docwood’s city council adhered to strict requirements, and companies entangled in public
controversies were strictly forbidden from participation. It had to be admitted that Victor was a little smarter than
his father.
“Send over Hazel’s voice recorder, and I may consider sparing your family,” Joseph responded coldly.
“The voice recorder is with the police, so why are you asking me for it? Besides, there’s
nothing on it,” Victor retorted impatiently, and his tone made it clear that he was not lying.
