The Hoffman Family had been sabotaged, something that was blatantly obvious.
But looking at the handiwork, it wasn't entirely characteristic of the Zachmann Family or Amadeus Yancey. The Zachmann Family didn't have such extensive reach, and Amadeus's actions would never be this subtle...
The only one he could think of was that high school girl that Phoebe Hoffman had provoked!
Nathalie Quinlan.
He had looked into it, her background was exceptionally clean, a girl whose grades were mediocre but somehow got into Tsinghua University, with nothing else noteworthy.

Lincoln Hoffman stood still, watching his granddad with his mouth agape in shock, speechless.
He himself was also confused.

The situation of the Hoffman Family was worse than imagined.
