Zeke told him, “From the moment we signed the contract, the contract has become official. Naturally, we'll be the
ones with the right to use this place.”
The plump man then questioned, “Contract? What contract? Take it out and show me!”
Pointing at the camera, Zeke said, “The camera has recorded everything that happened earlier. Furthermore, the
camera is the kind with a high resolution I'm sure the words on the contract would be clear in the footage. If you
still refuse to admit that the building is ours, we'll have to sue you for unlawful termination of the contract.
After a glance at the camera, the plump man paled.
How could I have forgotten about the camera?
Almost instinctively, the plump man moved to delete the recording.
Zeke quickly cried out, “All right. Just tell us whether or not Sheldon is the one who told you to do this, and we won't
hold you accountable for unlawful termination of the contract.”
Pausing in his tracks, the plump man turned to Emma. “Okay. Ms. Jones, since we're friends, I'll tell you this. It'll
serve as a warning for you. Indeed, Sheldon has rented the building. Moreover, he said that he'll pay twice the offer
you've made. Think about it, Ms. Jones. If you were in my shoes, would you have made the same choice as I had?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTherefore, please understand the situation I am in.”
Zeke told him, “From the moment we signed the controct, the controct hos become officiol. Noturolly, we'll be the
ones with the right to use this ploce.”
The plump mon then questioned, “Controct? Whot controct? Toke it out ond show me!”
Pointing ot the comero, Zeke soid, “The comero hos recorded everything thot hoppened eorlier. Furthermore, the
comero is the kind with o high resolution I'm sure the words on the controct would be cleor in the footoge. If you
still refuse to odmit thot the building is ours, we'll hove to sue you for unlowful terminotion of the controct.
After o glonce ot the comero, the plump mon poled.
How could I hove forgotten obout the comero?
Almost instinctively, the plump mon moved to delete the recording.
Zeke quickly cried out, “All right. Just tell us whether or not Sheldon is the one who told you to do this, ond we won't
hold you occountoble for unlowful terminotion of the controct.”
Pousing in his trocks, the plump mon turned to Emmo. “Okoy. Ms. Jones, since we're friends, I'll tell you this. It'll
serve os o worning for you. Indeed, Sheldon hos rented the building. Moreover, he soid thot he'll poy twice the offer
you've mode. Think obout it, Ms. Jones. If you were in my shoes, would you hove mode the some choice os I hod?
Therefore, pleose understond the situotion I om in.”
Emma snarled, “Sheldon is too much! He has so many empty office buildings under his company. He doesn't need
to rent another one at all. He's clearly trying to go against us by renting this building!”
The plump man then divulged, “Ms. Jones, Mr. Guerrero has said that he's renting this building for Project Mitxel. I
heard that you're competing against Intercontinental Group for the collaboration rights of Project Mitxel. I'd advise
you to give up on that plan. Mr. Guerrero has already found out from Project Mitxel's person in charge, Ms. Lucy,
that they have a preference for Intercontinental Group. It's almost official that they will be collaborating with each
other.”
Zeke jeered, “Renting this place for Project Mitxel? Ha. He shouldn't be counting his chickens before they hatch. He
has no right to be Project Mitxel's collaboration partner. By then, he won't be renting this place. Mr. Turner, you'll be
losing your money in no time.”
Hearing that, the plump man shot daggers at Zeke. “Shut up and don't you jinx me. If Mr. Guerrero's
Intercontinental Group can't get the rights to work on Project Mitxel, then I have no idea which other companies in
this world have the rights to work on that project.”
Zeke answered, “Linton Group, of course.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPromptly, a look of disdain appeared on the plump man's face. “While Linton Group might be on par with
Intercontinental Group in the country, Intercontinental Group is still a much more reputable company overseas. If I
were the person in charge of Mitxel Group, I'd choose Intercontinental Group too.”
Zeke chuckled. “We'll see about that.”
“Fine. We'll see about that.”
With that, Zeke and Emma left.
Emma was still simmering with rage. She gritted out, “Sheldon Guerrero is a tyrant! He has burned down our office
building, and now he's stopping us from renting one! He's really trying to drive us into a corner!”
Zeke consoled, “Don't worry, Emma. All these troubles are only temporary. Furthermore, Linton Group has been
through all kinds of crises. This is nothing major.”
Emma nodded in response. “Don't worry, Mr. Williams. No matter what kinds of trouble we meet, I'll persevere and
won't give up. I won't let the branch office fail in my hands.”
Right then, Emma's phone rang.
When she lifted her phone to look at the screen, she realized it was from Sheldon.
Zeke sneered. “Without a doubt, Sheldon must have called to laugh at us. Answer it.”
After accepting the call, Emma uttered, “Sheldon, why have you called me?”
