Chapter 858
At the Silver Nimbus Resort project construction site.Staring at the construction site before her, Mandy was all worried and gloomy.There were no other problems plaguing the resort project’s construction site. Plus, with Old Niner and his people on watch, no thug would dare come and destroy the site.Unfortunately, the project had to be stopped temporarily as an issue with the supply of raw materials had arisen out of the blue.Mandy called her secretary, her eyebrows knitted together in frustration as she spoke. “Cash out thirty thousand dollars from the finance department and distribute a hundred and fifty dollars for every worker as reward. Have them rest for a few days and wait for my announcement to return to work.”The secretary nodded, but she still asked in worry, “CEO Mandy, it’s almost winter now.”“Winter is South Light brings the cold north wind. wThe worker’s efficiency will be reduced.”“If we can’t finish constructing the whole framework before autumn ends, I’m

Mandy stayed around the construction site for the whole afternoon. After that, she went to the city and made her way to the hotel where she and the suppliers promised to meet.Reaching there, she saw that the private room was empty. Mandy guessed that they were putting on an act, for reasons she couldn’t know. She said nothing and instead ordered a pot of tea, and waited quietly in the room.For four hours she waited, from noon until evening. Only by then did suppliers arrive. They came in as a group, referring to each other as brothers as they entered.“CEO Mandy, please excuse us for being a little late.”“These days, we’ve been very busy with our work. You too know that after the market price of raw materials rose, more people came to us for business. That’s why we’re not that free!”“Yes! We have so little products, but so many companies demanded this and that from us! We don’t even know to whom we should distribute our products anymore. What a hassle!”The moment they appe

“Ha ha ha! Are you going to file a lawsuit against us, CEO Zimmer?”“I’m going to give you a piece of advice. Sure, employing a lawyer doesn’t cost a lot.”“Still, civil disputes like this prioritize mediation. It’s rare for the case to be concluded quickly.”“If we want, we can delay this case for as long as eight to ten years. While we don’t really care, can your company afford it?”Barry Waters was incredibly satisfied with himself.Obviously, he had thought of everything before arriving. His presence right now was solely to crush Mandy.The other suppliers sneered and nodded along. After all, they’d all be sharing mutual benefits.Of course they’d take this opportunity to make a huge profit as a group! No one was dumb enough to resist cold, hard cash! Mandy inhaled deeply and replied, “Mr. Barry, when we Zimmers were looking for suppliers, you were the one who came to our doorstep and told us your factory was going bankrupt.”“You were the one who pleaded to offer us the

At his words, Mandy’s face grew cold. She was here to talk about collaboration. How could she accept this humiliation?“Mr Waters, our company is honest and sincere in dealing with people. Please show us more respect. Collaboration is good for both of us. It won’t be good for us to dismiss that chance, no?”“I’ll let it slide this time. Next time you insult me, you’ll get a letter from my lawyer!”“Letter? Insult?” Barry Waters grinned and sneered coldly. “CEO Zimmer, do you really think you’re a decent woman?”“I’m telling you. The matter today isn’t over yet.”“Do you think we can’t survive if we don’t collaborate with your company? Let me tell you, many other companies are eager to collaborate with us!”“Even our raw materials aren’t enough for all of them!”“Waters.” Mandy hissed icily. “Aren’t you grateful for the assistance I gave you that day?!” Barry chuckled and folded his arms.“Why, CEO Zimmer, please forget the past. We’re both businessmen. All I care about is the

Barry Waters’ head was filled with evil thoughts. He only had one thing in his mind.He flashed Mandy a cruel grin. “CEO Zimmer, let’s go to Buckwood Hotel tonight. Don’t worry, I’m a member there. They’ll give us a presidential suite. I’m sure you’ll be satisfied!”“Don’t even think about it! If you don’t let go, I’ll call the police!”Mandy struggled to take out her phone.Barry sneered at her attempts, and slammed her to the ground.“Woman. Do you think you’re that capable? How dare you pretend to be a virgin?”“I’m telling you. In the end, you’ll beg me and climb into my bed!”“No one in Buckwood can provide you any raw materials without my approval!”Mandy grabbed her phone and replied solemnly, “Waters, don’t flatter yourself.”“Nothing couldn’t be bought with money! Don’t regret it when that happens!”Barry burst into laughter at Mandy’s words.There was a reason why he was so rampant.The one backing him was the big boss of the real estate industry of South Light, t

When she reached home, Mandy threw herself on the sofa. A gloomy cloud hung over her face and she refused to talk to anyone.Xynthia Zimmer, who came home from school, was shocked to see her sister that way. Xynthia knew her sister too well. Based on Mandy’s expression, she must have suffered a lot.Xynthia quickly dialed Harvey.She knew very well that her brother-in-law would never let anyone hurt her sister.Half an hour after receiving the call, Harvey appeared.After all, Mandy was his most precious treasure.“Mandy, what happened today? Can you tell me?”Harvey gave Xynthia a look, motioning her to go upstairs. Then he walked to the sofa, holding a glass of milk in his hand.Mandy took the glass of milk and drank it angrily. Thinking back to the grievance she had endured today, she wanted to cry.That shameless Barry Waters even pulled her hair! Her roots still hurt.“Barry Waters, that ungrateful man! He was about to go bankrupt back when the Silver Nimbus Mountain Res

Tyson did not speak. He just looked at the cigar in his hand, which was burned only halfway.His two subordinates immediately understood his actions and proceeded to hit Barry even harder.Tyson took a drag of the cigar, sighing. “Barry, you’re nothing in my eyes.”“There’s no misunderstanding between us.”“What have you done recently? Who have you offended? You should know better than me, right?”“No! I didn’t offend anyone!” Barry replied miserably. “I’ve always been a well-behaved businessman!” “Really? Then I’ll help you recall.”Tyson then stepped forward and kicked Barry in the face.“Gggh!”Barry’s body flew and smashed into the wall of the room. The impact made him spit out a few broken teeth. Yet at the moment, he was wide awake with realization.He remembered it!He had offended Mandy recently!But if Mandy could hire someone like Tyson Woods, why was she intimidated by him?None of this made any sense!“Brother Tyson, no, Sir Tyson! I’m sure it’s a misundersta

At two o’clock in the morning, Harvey left the Gardens Residence and went to Tyson’s residence.Barry Waters was dragged out of the basement. His injuries weren’t minor, but in Harvey’s eyes, they were nothing serious.Seeing that Barry was still able to stand up, Harvey’s indifferent gaze fell on Tyson.Tyson shuddered. He gave Barry no chance to speak.He hurriedly threw a violent kick at Barry’s stomach, sending the latter flying. Barry’s whole body started to convulse when he slumped to the ground.“Misunderstanding…”“Brother Tyson, it’s really a misunderstanding!”Barry murmured weakly.Tyson did not dare to speak casually in front of Harvey. He stood with his hands pulled down, not saying a word.Harvey stepped forward and slowly pressed his foot on Barry’s face. With a cold hiss, he began, “What did you do to Mandy today?”For a moment, Barry was dumbfounded. He never expected to hear Mandy’s name!He struggled to turn over, but couldn’t. He could only mutter, “Who a
