Chapter 224 The frustrated Encounter.com boss: Detective Chuck, this is not over yet!

Chuck took Alex away.

Erica, the wife of the other party to the conflict, quickly came over.

"Alex, are you okay?"

Erica expressed concern.

"I'm fine."

Alex smiled bitterly and said: "I just couldn't imagine that this kind of thing would happen. Andrew was actually in a normal state at the time, and there was no problem at all."

"Don't think about this, it's not your fault."

Erica reassured, then glanced at Chuck: "This is not anyone's fault, no one wants it."

"yes."

Alex nodded: "Now we can only give more money to Andrew's family."

"Speaking of giving money, how did I hear that you asked John to pay a huge compensation of US$12 million?"

Erica asked in confusion: "Where does this number come from?"

Alex couldn't help but look at Chuck, and she didn't understand why the number was like this.

"The maximum value calculated by the law firm."

Chuck answered: "Do you think there is a problem?"

"Of course there is a problem."

Erica couldn't bear it any longer: "This number is too big. It's too big for the encounter network to support. It's impossible for us to pay the money."

After saying this, he was worried that his tone of voice was too strong and that he would talk to Chuck like her husband did. He quickly looked at Alex and said affectionately: "Alex, you also know that Encounter.com

The situation is, it’s not that I don’t want to pay this money, I really don’t have that much money. I have tried my best to keep other people’s jobs. If I have to pay this money, more employees will definitely be fired. By then

God knows if a tragedy like Andrew will happen again? You don’t want this to happen, right?”

"Chuck……"

Alex also looked at Chuck worriedly.

"You have money!"

Chuck said calmly: "You have to pay this money, and you cannot fire employees for this reason."

"Why?"

Erica finally understood why her husband was so angry. Even she was a little angry when faced with Chuck's attitude: "We have no money!"

"Don't be angry, this is not necessarily a bad thing for you."

Alex had a good impression of Erica, and she didn't want to conflict with them, so she moved in her heart and gave her meaningful advice.

"..."

Erica watched Alex wink at her, and instantly understood what Alex meant, her face darkened.

Paying such a large amount of money is not necessarily a bad thing, Alex was clearly talking about her previous complaint that her husband had a copy of the real John Fowley's Redemption in the Bible.

Well, the logic is that if you have less money, you will have less to redeem those beautiful bitches, right?

"Alex, do you really think a man would wrong his brother for someone else?"

Erica simply pointed it out and sneered: "You are not so naive, are you? It's okay to suffer others, but do you think it's possible to suffer your own brother?"

"Ah this."

Alex really didn't expect Erica to point this out directly, and was a little caught off guard. At the same time, she felt that Erica's words were reasonable, and hesitantly looked at Chuck again.

For men, it is true that no one wants to suffer the pain of their own brothers!

Erica felt a little proud when she saw this.

She may not be able to deal with Chuck, but it is still very easy to deal with Alex. As the proprietress of Encounter.com, she naturally stands with her husband on this matter, and there is no way she will agree to pay a huge sum of 12 million.

compensation.

However, compared to her furious husband who was throwing things around and saying harsh words, she was much calmer. She guessed that there must be a reason why Chuck dared to say this, so she took the initiative to come over to inquire about the information in order to make the wisest choice.

"You have plenty of money!"

Chuck's attitude did not change at all: "Websites such as X Art Website, which you have a stake in, provide you with a steady stream of cash flow. As long as you are willing, it is not impossible to increase the amount by 12 million US dollars in a short period of time."

Erica's eyes narrowed and she immediately understood Chuck's hint.

Adult websites such as X Art Website are legal businesses in the United States, and compared to other businesses, this business has unique advantages.

It is closely related to the "emperor" of the Three Poison Emperors Gambling Calf, and is highly profitable. What's even better is that it relies on Internet+ to upgrade traditional labor-intensive industries to the Internet industry, which immediately has unlimited room for imagination.

Moreover, it is also somewhat involved in fields such as art, film and television, otherwise it would not be called an art website.

As we all know, the art and film and television industries are full of all kinds of unspeakable operations. High premiums and high valuations are the norm, and sky-high price transactions are common.

An industry with unlimited market expansion and unlimited imagination can also achieve unscrupulous high premiums and high valuations. It is highly maneuverable and is particularly suitable for money laundering.

After all, as long as the other end of the computer can't reach death, it will rush to death.

Moreover, many of the website’s film source providers are people who need to launder money.

Think about all the chaos in Eastern Hollywood during its heyday, and if you expand those chaos, you can substitute it into the situation here.

John Foley owns shares in many websites such as X Art Website. If you think about it a little, you will know that he must be inextricably connected with some dark forces.

How can such a person stand up to investigation?

"Are you serious?"

Erica looked at Chuck in disbelief: "You're going to do this just for someone you don't know?"

Offending a billionaire was already a very risky thing, but looking at Chuck like this, he didn't care about offending the more terrifying dark forces, and all this was just for a dead person he didn't know, which she couldn't understand.

"I don't like change."

Chuck said calmly.

"Hold on."

Seeing that Chuck was serious, Erica was a little hesitant, said something, picked up the phone and went out.

"How about forgetting it?"

Alex also guessed that the water here was very deep, and advised: "I know you are trying to make me feel better, but a compensation of 2 million is enough. Don't ask for so much. I will listen to you in the future, too."

I’m not going to do this business anymore.”

"Don't worry, they will let you go."

Chuck said affirmatively.

"What if they don't?"

Alex said worriedly.

"Then let them relax."

Chuck was expressionless: "It's the same sentence, it's already been said, I don't like changes."

After a while, Erica came back with a solemn expression.

"How did he say?"

Alex's heart sank.

"John still doesn't agree."

Erica smiled bitterly and said: "He was so angry this time and felt that he had lost a lot of face. He didn't care at all. He said he was not afraid of Chuck going to investigate because there was nothing to cover up. Even if there was really something wrong inside, he was just

He doesn’t know anything about the equity participation, and his team of lawyers are not vegetarians either.”

After saying this, she looked at Chuck and said, "Look? How about you each take a step back and do less?"

"No, I won't change what I said."

Chuck shook his head: "Maybe he can say that he only participates in a website like X Art Website and doesn't know about other things in it. What about Encounter.com?"

"Encounter network?"

Erica's eyes panicked: "What does this have to do with Enchant.com?"

The profits from websites like X Art Website belong to her husband and have little to do with her, but Enchant.com is her hard work. If there is such a big trouble here, then she can't just watch and smooth things over.

"You really don't know?"

Chuck looked at her.

"What do I know?"

Erica pretended to be calm.

Alex also noticed that something was wrong with Erica's mood. She was wondering what was wrong with the encounter network. Suddenly a thought flashed across her mind, but she remembered that Erica had talked about the origin of the encounter network. She seemed to understand something, and she looked up in shock.

With Erica.

"What is an encounter? An unexpected encounter."
