My Extraordinary Wife Chapter 1218

Chapter 1218Chapter 1218 Losing Flying Fish
Everyone assumed the Cooks had a close relationship with Mysterious yet Majestic, so people usually
showed them some respect.
As implied by its name, Mysterious yet Majestic was a discreet yet powerful organization. Ordinary
individuals would not dare to provoke them.
Hence, they held the Cook family in high regard due to their connections.
Herald was infuriated by Hugo's actions. He had always been overly polite when talking with Flying
Fish, to the extent that he was embarrassingly obsequious. Fortunately, Flying Fish was not the type to
act all high and mighty just because of his status.
Herald had hoped that, as his relationship with Flying Fish grew stronger, Flying Fish could introduce
him to the big shots from Mysterious yet Majestic and perhaps arrange a meeting with them.
By doing so, he could establish a network with Mysterious yet Majestic and gain access to their
contacts.
Instead, Flying Fish became extremely upset and even given him a stern warning that their friendship
would be over if Herald continued to spread the Trojan horse virus.
Additionally, Flying Fish also told Herald not to mention to outsiders that they were good friends. The
former also prohibited him from revealing that he knew someone from Mysterious yet Majestic.
How is this any different from cutting off ties with me? Herald's heart surged with overwhelming anger, wishing he could just smack Hugo to oblivion.
How am I supposed to get by after cutting off ties with Mysterious yet Majestic?
Several other prominent families watched him closely, like a tiger eyeing its prey. It was not an easy
feat for him to secure a ministerial position at such a young age and being second to none.
Will I be able to maintain my position without Flying Fish's support from now on?
He looked at Hugo with utter disappointment. “Dad passed away early, so I've always pampered and
spoiled you. But look at you now! Is this how you repay me? Your mother always thinks I'm harming
you, but take a look at what's going on here! It's you who has jeopardized the entire Cook family. If I
can't maintain my position, I'm afraid your tenure in the Department of Information won't last much
longer either.”
His words shocked both Martha and Pauline to the core.
“How did things get so serious?”
“Herald, Hugo is still young, please forgive him just this time!” Martha and Pauline pleaded at the same
time.
“He's still young? How many more times should I tolerate him and excuse his mistakes? The whole
Cook family's reputation hinges on our relationship with Flying Fish; it's the only reason people show us
any respect. If Flying Fish and I sever ties, then... Don't hold me responsible if the Cook family falls into
decline. Put the blame on him! He gave the Trojan horse virus to Sloan, who then planted it in thecomputers in Section Six. The President entrusted the new energy project to me, but can you believe
what's happening now? We've not only offended those in Section Six but also angered Flying Fish.”
The two women of the Cook family were dumbstruck, and Pauline's face was especially pale.
She felt the pain as though Herald had slapped her repeatedly.
She looked at Hugo in disbelief, “Hugo, is everything your brother said true? If the new energy project
with Section Six falls through... it won't just be a slap from your brother you'll be facing, you'll end up in
jail!”
Both Martha and Pauline stared at Hugo in utter disappointment.
Hugo was the youngest son in the family and also the most favored one. Their eldest managed the
family business, and he was nothing like the youngest who spent time at home and was pampered by
everyone.
Hence, Herald and Hugo were not close.
Great! Just look at what the youngest son in the family has done now.
Hugo clenched his fist so tightly that his nails nearly dug into his palm.
He dared not say a word because he hadn't expected Sloan to do such a thing.
In the end, he had created problems for his own brother and even brought disaster upon the Cook
family. He just wanted to make some money. He felt that it was useless for the Trojan horse virus to be kept on
his computer when he could actually exchange it for some cash.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookHis thoughts were just that simple.
No matter how doting Martha had always been towards him, she could not hold back her temper at that
very moment. She picked up her walking stick and struck Hugo fiercely. “What on earth is wrong with
you? Speak up! Why would you do such a thing? Have you lost your mind?”
How did the entire Cook family maintain their powerful status up to that very day? Who were they
dependent on? It was all because Herald knew Flying Fish.
Before Hugo could finish his sentence, a commotion was heard outside of the manor, accompanied by
the butler's hurried footsteps and voice. “May I ask about the purpose of your visit, gentlemen? Please
allow me to inform Mr. Cook.”
