Chapter 920
“Whoa, whoa!” Brandon exclaimed, taking a step back. “Mr. Larson, what happened? Why is he in such a rush?”
Trevor glared at Brandon as he replied, “You still have the audacity to askthat?”
Shocked by the man’s outburst, Brandon asked immediately, “What exactly is going on?”
Trevor let out a cold snort and replied, “Do you know that because you askedto stand Vinson up, he approached Luke instead?”
“Luke Yeager? Mr. Nightshire actually approached him just because you postponed the lunch meeting to dinner instead?” Brandon
was shocked to hear that as well and broke out in a cold sweat.
If that's the case, does that mean Mr. Nightshire is going against Greene Corporation?
Trevor was extremely vexed. He paced around Brandon for a few minutes before coming to a decision. “I'm heading to Zaprington
Restaurant right now to apologize to Mr. Nightshire.”
“No! You can’t do that! If you do that, our plan will be foiled!” Brandon blurted out those words in a panic.
“Our plan?” Trevor narrowed his eyes. “What plan? Didn't you say that we were just going to establish our dominance so that
Vinson would not look down on the Greenes?”
Brandon's throat tightened. He knew he had revealed too much. He tried to cover up immediately by replying, “Exactly! The plan
was to show our power so that Ms. Greene would not be bullied after marrying into the Nightshire family.”
However, Trevor was no fool. He shot an angry glance toward the man and bellowed, “Don’t you dare lie to me! If you don't tell me
the truth right now, 1// look for Vinson immediately and tell him that it was you who askedto postpone our lunch meeting.”
The corners of Brandon's mouth twitched as he tried to think of a reply. However, before he could cup with another lie, two of
Trevor's strong-built bodyguards were seen approaching them.
“M-Mr. Larson, what are you trying to do?”

“I'll give you one last chance to tellthe truth. Otherwise, don’t blme for being ruthless.”
Brandon was still trying to remain silent, not convinced that Trevor would really disregard the Greenes and take action against him.
However, Brandon's assistant could no longer withstand the stress and said, “Mr. Larson, I'll tell you everything!”
“ou...”
Brandon wanted to stop his assistant from doing so, but he was too late, as the man had already started speaking.
“In truth, Mr. Nightshire has no feelings for Ms. Greene and a third party has cin between them. Mr. Nightshire is madly in love
with the other woman and is not keen on marrying Ms. Greene. As such, Mrs. Greene has ordered us to give Mr. Nightshire a little
push so that he'll marry Ms. Greene. Mr. Larson, this is really all | know. Please letgo.”
Brandon shut his eyes in despair, cursing his assistant silently.
Enraged, Trevor roared, “How dare you lie to me?”
Brandon could feel his legs weaken. He quickly explained, “I didn’t mean to lie to you. It's a fact that Vinson will marry Ms. Greene
sooner or later no matter what!”
“Nonsense!” Trevor was so furious that he was stomping his feet. “F*ck all of you! You've gotteninto serious trouble this time!
How dare you lie toand causeto offend Vinson? Such idiots! Even though the Greene family is the most powerful family in
Horington, the rest of Chanaea barely know them!”
Taking a deep breath after recomposing himself, Brandon walked up to Trevor and said, “Mr. Larson, Ms. Greene's marriage into the
Nightshire family does not only concern the Greenes. If the Greene family strikes it rich, you will benefit from it as well. By then,
you'll be able to walk all over Luke.”
Gritting his teeth, Trevor replied, “You still have the nerves to say that? If not for you, would | have offended
Vinson? Would Vinson have approached Luke ?”
Brandon forced a smile and said, “Mr. Larson, since what's done is already done, we are on the sboat now. You don't really
have any choice left other than to cooperate with us and ensure that Ms. Greene marries into the Nightshire family. Don’t you think
it's best for us to talk about it amicably?”
Squinting his eyes, Trevor replied coldly, “Are you threateningright now 7”
“Why do you have to put it that way?” Brandon replied, putting one arm over Trevor's shoulder. “It's not a threat but a proposal to
collaborate. Just think about it. Without the Greene family, would Larson Group be doing so well in Horington today? If that's the
case, wouldn't it make sense that Larson Group would prosper even more with Greene Corporation’s continued successes?”
It was obvious that the man’s implied meaning was that without the Greenes, Larson Group would hardly be able to thrive.
“Nou—"
Just when anger was rising in Trevor like a tide, his assistant rushed over to report once more.
“Mr. Larson, I've found out that Mr. Nightshire and Luke Yeager have already signed an agreement to collaborate.”
“What?” Trevor's eyes were bloodshot with rage.
It was common knowledge that Nightshire Group's projects were always profitable and anyone would benefit from collaborating
with them.
Trevor could not take it lying down that he had lost what was originally his because he had listened to the Greenes.
“Mr. Larson” —Brandon took the opportunity to continue convincing Trevor— “since Luke is already collaborating with Mr. Nightshire
on the project, are you sure that you'll be able to compete with him without the support of the Greenes? Other than helping Ms.
Greene marry into the Nightshire family, it seems that there's no better option for you.”
Even though Trevor was boiling with anger, he could still think rationally.
Greene Corporation was mainly engaged in the real estate business, while Larson Group was involved in construction projects and
the distribution of construction materials. Without the Greenes, it wouldn't be easy for Trevor to sell his construction materials that
were expensive but of average quality.

Although he was not willing to admit it, it was a fact that Larson Group was only able to thrive in recent years because of its
business dealings with Greene Corporation
Since he had already lost the opportunity to collaborate
with Vinson, he knew that his only choice was to rely on the Greenes.
At that thought, Trevor had no choice but to swallow his pride.
“Then tell me, what should | do now?” he asked through gritted teeth.
Brandon smiled and replied, “What you need to do is very simple! Acquire all the construction materials manufacturing companies
in Horington. Yeager Group does not have as many resources as your company. After they exhaust all their current resources, they
will not have any avenues to manufacture more materials. By then, Vinson will have no choice but to work with
us.”
“That will costa bomb,” Trevor said, cringing at the man’s suggestion.
“Don’t worry,” Brandon replied while giving Trevor an assuring pat on the shoulder. “When they are desperate for resources, even if
you ask for double the original price, they will still be willing to pay. It’s definitely a winning situation for you!”
“But what if Vinson is adamant not to work with me? If | acquire all the construction materials manufacturing companies and
Vinson ends up not working with me, I'll go bankrupt!”
“That's impossible,” Brandon replied confidently. “Taking into account manpower and transportation
costs, it wouldn't make economic sense for them to source for materials elsewhere. Vinson is a shrewd businessman and will
definitely look for you.”
Hearing that, Trevor decided to bite the bullet and do as Brandon suggested.
“Okay then! I'll acquire all those manufacturing companies right away!” Trevor said before rushing off.
Arter Trevor left, Brandon let out a long sigh of relief and gave Daniel a call to report the situation.
