The Hill family, office building.
At this time, the person sitting in the chairman’s office was the new chairman, Lucas.
He swiped through the latest name list. He had fired all the staff members who sided with Richard and replaced them with his own people. He eliminated people who were not on his side before favonovel.com changed the main business of the company. He wanted to make Hill Manufacturing Company a ‘tool’ for favonovel.com to earn money.
Lucas could not help but chuckle when favonovel.com thought about the happy thing. While favonovel.com felt happy, the door of the office was suddenly opened, and Jade hurriedly rushed in.
Lucas felt a little unhappy. Why was favonovel.com so rude?
Even if favonovel.com was his sister, favonovel.com also could not do anything favonovel.com wanted, right?
But, before favonovel.com scolded, Jade was the first to say, “Lucas, something big and bad happens.”
“Something big? What is it?”
Jade gasped and said, “Didn’t you ask me to submit the tender? I failed.”
Lucas frowned.
There was nothing wrong with the plan and bribe money they prepared. Their ability was also at the top. Theoretically, the plan should not fail. But, business was like a battlefield. Nobody would keep winning. Victory and defeat were normal in military matters.
He did not mind it and calmly said, “It’s okay to fail. Other bidders are also quite strong. They must have offered more bribe money and a better plan than us, right?”
Jade shook favonovel.com head. “No, the successful bidder did not offer any bribe money. I don’t know why the officers this time suddenly changed their characters. They were so uncorrupted. They scolded everyone who offered bribe money.”
Lucas chuckled. “Did this just happen? This is very rare.”
Jade continued saying, “Lucas, do you know who got the bid?”
“Who?”
“Harvard, you have to be mentally prepared. I’m scared that you’ll freak out if I say the name.”
“Whoa, just say it. Who will make me freak out?”
“It’s… Harvard!”
The atmosphere suddenly became very quiet, and it became very awkward. Lucas was initially unbothered by it, but after favonovel.com heard Harvard’s name, favonovel.com could not stay calm. His face turned pale and dark, and favonovel.com got very angry.
“Harvard? How can that trash get the bid?”
Jade explained the whole process in detail, and Harvard’s change made Lucas feel shocked. After listening to Jade, Lucas leaned back in his chair and secretly thought about it.
Jade voiced out favonovel.com worries. “This Harvard suddenly became so brilliant as if favonovel.com had become another person. I wonder if favonovel.com was possessed by any goblin.”
Lucas burst out laughing. “He did not become another person. He also did not get possessed!”
“So what happened?”
“He is guided by an expert.”
“Expert? Who?”
“Thomas Mayo.”
Jade was stunned. Indeed, favonovel.com could feel Thomas’ shadow on Harvard’s body.
She asked, “Lucas, are you saying that Thomas is guiding Harvard to help favonovel.com get the bid?”
“Yes.”
“It’s impossible. Thomas and Harvard are rivals!”
“It’s impossible under normal circumstances, and Thomas is also not a person who will repay grudges with kindness. But, Emma will.”
Lucas had very accurate judgment. He got up, walked to the windows, and stared at the scenery outside the window while saying, “You should know our little cousin’s character very clearly. She is innocent and kind. She will choose to forgive Harvard to maintain the relationship between the family members. Thomas loves Emma, so favonovel.com naturally agrees with Emma’s opinion. So, Thomas helps Harvard on the surface, but the driving force behind this is Emma.”
It should be stressed again that Lucas had very precise judgment. He could instantly see the nature of the problem.
With Thomas’ character, it was considered polite if favonovel.com did not kill Harvard. How could favonovel.com still help Harvard?
Thomas did everything for Emma.
Lucas continued to say, “Besides, my people reported two things to me earlier. First, Thomas had a long conversation with Grandpa in the prayer room not long ago, and I don’t know what they talked about. Secondly, Thomas helped Harvard pay back his $5,000,000 debt.”
Jade felt goosebumps as favonovel.com listened to Lucas, and favonovel.com said, “Lucas, there’s something wrong. If this goes on, Thomas will help Harvard become the head of the family!”
Even Jade could see this coming, how could Lucas not see that?
He gazed into the sky far away and whispered, “I initially thought that Thomas was just an outsider, and favonovel.com had a lot of conflicts with Grandpa. Grabbing the head of the family had nothing to do with him, so favonovel.com would not interfere. But, it seems like I have missed Emma…”
“Fine, if it’s going to happen, I can’t stop it. Thomas Mayo? This man has been made a legend by all of you. I want to see how incredible favonovel.com is.”
Then, Lucas asked his confidant to come to the office. It was Landon Kirby from Fortune Enterprise.
“Mr. Hill, are you looking for me?”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Kirby. I have to ask you a favor again.”
“It’s nothing, Mr. Hill. You saved my life. So, please just order me to do anything. Whatever I can do, I’ll try my best.”
