Chapter 158 Chapter 158 That Person I couldn't really remember what happened prior to my family's downfall. But what I knew was that my family's company didn't have any money left in its accounts. Also, countless people would visit my parents every day to ask about the current situation. Back then, I had already found out about my illness, so I was on the verge of breaking down. At the stime, I was planning to break up with Leonard. That was why I didn't bother to pay attention to many of the incidents that were going on.
Now that I thought about it, my family had so many projects going on. There was no way we'd go bankrupt so quickly.
The symptoms must have appeared in the past. I was very sure that the veteran employees were able to recognize those symptoms.
I looked Michael in the eye. "Mr. Copeland, what exactly happened to my family during the final phase? It wasn't a given that my family would go broke anyway. Is there another reason why this happened?" Michael struggled with himself internally. Finally, he let out a sigh.

Your father wantedto give that project everything I got, but I..." He shook his head. "Eva, the truth is, I really wanted to give it my all. Trust me. I really, really wanted to do that. "But your uncle... Your uncle toldI might as well wait for the company to go bankrupt before transferring to his company..." It turned out that Keenan had already started poaching my father's employees at that time. Michael wasn't the only one getting poached; the other employees experienced the sthing.
too.
Everyone grew uneasy because of the investigation that was launched on my father. After he died in that accident, my mother was the only one who had to keep the company running.
"Your mother rarely dealt with the company's matters. There was so much that she didn't know about the company. That's why your uncle toldthat he should handle the project instead of dying in the sboat as your mother "Eva, you should know that my daughter had just gotten into junior high back then. My family desperately needed money for everything..." Michael lowered his head, not daring to lookin the eye.
Honestly, I understood that Michael had his own woes to deal with. It was normal for middle-aged men to take care of their elderly parents and their own families. No one could possibly Chap 15 Tijat Person spend the rest of their lives fighting for my father's cause.
"Eva, can... Can you forgive me?" Michael's eyes were a little muddy. Gone was the man who looked every bit like a successful designer.
I didn't nod. Instead, I just gazed at Michael coldly.
"Mr. Copeland, I didn't visit you just to ask about what happened back then. I want to ask you about the situation of your current project. Uncle Keenan roped Harmon Group into taking over your project. I want to redesign the whole thing." I didn't hate Michael. Anyone would prioritize their family first. I needed him to helpwith other tasks I had in mind.
But Michael's rage was reignited when I brought up his project.
"My colleague toldKeenan changed smaterials and the design just to save money. It's only natural that the person backing him up refused to go along with it. Not to mention, Keenan had also offended the investors from before." The disdain in Michael's eyes grew tenfold.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMy expression was still neutral, but I had already perked up my ears at the new information.
Based on Jill's information, Keenan Corporation didn't have the qualifications needed to take over the project. In fact, many of the qualifications were falsified.
If the government were to conduct a ye proper audit on Keenan Corporation, they'd be able to find out that something fishy was going on. After att, that company was still able to secure so many projects despite its lack of qualifications. Michael scanned his surroundings. Once he was sure that no one was looking his way, he dropped his tone to a murmur.
"Why else did you think Keenan Corporation could secure that many projects? It's all thanks to the person backing him up Keenan's still able to secure the project despite offering subpar designs to the government! "However, Keenan pissed that person off by using the construction funds.
just to bail your cousin out." I leaned in as well. "Who's that person?" Michael dipped his finger in water before scrawling a last non the table-Mills. Then, he wiped it away immediately.
"Keenan was already working with this guy when your father was still alive. After that, both of themom achieved higher levels of success together. From the way I see it, something fishy's definitely going on."
