Afterall, this news isn't just your everyday gossip but a once in a blue moon scoop in relation to the nations no.1 family- the Keirs!
Elli Keirs household is in pandemonium as if they were hit by a tornado overnight, he quickly called Madam Keir and the family went to her place as early as sunrise.
At Helena Keir's manor~
"Just what exactly happened?! how did this information leaked?" madam Keir anxiously asked.
"for the media to have the courage to release this unfounded news, there must be someone backing them up." Elli gritted his teeth while staring daggers at Allister who was also called out by madam Keir.
"I think this is s.h.i.+n's doing! he can't accept that his ruined now." Hadi mockingly said.
"mother, my heart breaks from all this groundless news. As a n.o.ble family there's many out there who wants to demean us" Diana Keir, Ellis wife sadly spoke.
"there is nothing to worry! I've already asked some people to take down this news, I won't let this matter rest! they have the courage to go against us? ha! will see" madam Keir snorted.
However it didn't took an hour when all of there hopes were crushed. The negative and slanderous news has gone viral.
Elli Keir's domestic violence along with his sons abusive and illegal acts were trending online, although there were some news about Allister's alledge mistress and said to be s.h.i.+n's mother, it was toppled by the news of the other Keir members. Afterall, society prefers scandals and only the Keirs could tell how many people they have offended, now that the opportunity arises, how can they just let it pa.s.s?
The no.1 family skeletons were exposed!
"aren't you going too far? this is our family your ruining!" Elli said in a low voice only Allister could hear, yet it didn't hide his anger and anxiety.
Allister smiled coldly, "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth...isn't that our ancestors rule? as a family we should share the same burden, if one sinks...why don't we all sink together."
Elli looked at Allister in disbelief, more than anyone he knows how much of a monster his brother is. He just didn't expect he still have this much power after retiring and stepping down as a CEO.
For years, he tried any means to eliminate him but Allister is always a step ahead, until now he can't even figure out how Allister manage to put his b.a.s.t.a.r.d as the new CEO satisfying the investors, business partners, etc.!
Now he needed to tread lightly and not jump into conclusions else his other plans might backfire.
"where are you going?" madam Keir anxiously asked Allister noticing him about to leave.
"I have other important matters to do, why distress ourselves over this issues? we have lawyers who are capable of handling such things." Allister nonchalantly replied.
Then few minutes when Allister's car left, madam Keir's head butler nervously stated his report.
"what did you say?!!!" madam Keir is now shaking from rage.
"what's wrong mother?" Elli confusely asked.
"no...this isn't possible! just what exactly is going on....how..." madam Keir clutched her chest, her face pale and she slumped back on her chair.
"mother!" Dianna Keir shouted, "call a doctor now! and someone get us a water!"
"grandma relax, we will take care of this." Hiro spoke.
"mom, quickly tell me what's going on!" Elli uncaringly asked.
"the Neri and Saeki family wanted to renounce their alliance with us also some of our biggest investors wanted to terminate all business relations..." madam Keir weakly said, tension visible on her face.
Elli looked dumbfounded and a pin-drop silence followed.
Sin City is the capital of Caelum Country, over the history, there are 4 n.o.ble families known in Caelum Country - Keir, Song, Neri and Saeki.
Back then, the Keir and Song family reigned the top spot causing decades of enmities between the two families due to power struggle and bad-blood. However, this has change when Allister manage the family business and established an alliance with the Neri family paving a path for the Keirs to be the no.1 family of Caelum Country.
The Keirs position fortified when s.h.i.+n took over, he ruthlessly usurped a lot of business compet.i.tors, established a stronghold within Sin City and also gained the Saeki familys support; with the two other n.o.ble families backing, they are peerless!
Nonetheless, madam Keir failed to acknowledge s.h.i.+n's contribution with the family and thought this was all because Allister pave the way for s.h.i.+n and all were handed to him in a silver platter.
Since her marriage to the Keir family, madam Keir lived a supreme life, with the current situation the Song family will definitely strike! her greatest fear is losing the family status and prestige, how can she let it happen?!
"where is s.h.i.+n Keir?! find that b.a.s.t.a.r.d now!" madam Keir suddenly shouted.
