NovelUpdateChapter 1145 Theo's expression darkened, and he let out a cold laugh. "Mr. Sumner, you don't need to lecture me. If you'd been willing to return the 10% stake in the Wilkie Group, we wouldn't have ended up like this." Damon didn't respond. He simply picked up his pen and signed the termination contract.
The moment he finished, Theo impatiently snatched the contract away and handed a bank card to Damon.
"Mr. Sumner, the penalty fee is on this card. The PIN is six zeroes," he said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDamon glanced at him but didn't take the card. "Just leave it on the desk." Theo's face stiffened, and a shadow of resentment flickered in his eyes. "What's this? Mr. Sumner looking down on me?" Damon opened a document without even looking up. "If that's what you think, then so be it." Theo's grip on the card tightened until his knuckles turned white. He stared at Damon for a long moment before finally placing the card on the desk. "You should be careful not to let your arrogance make enemies everywhere, Mr. Sumner. You'll only box yourself into a corner." With that, he turned and left.
After he left, Damon gave the card a brief glance and told Spencer, "Look into how much money is on this card. Don't touch it." "Yes, Mr. Sumner," Spencer replied.
Downstairs in the parking garage...
Theo got into his car and immediately called Pedro. "Grandpa, I've done what you asked. What's next?" "Get back to work! Do I need to spell it out for you? Now that we've terminated the partnership with Prospectus Technology, the priority is finding new partners.
"Are you stupid?!" Pedro's voice was sharp with anger. He couldn't fathom how he could have such a foolish grandson! Theo was long used to his scolding and didn't take it to heart. It went in one ear and out the other. "Got it. I'l head back to the office." In the Wilkie study...
Pedro hung up and turned to Drake, who was sitting across from him. "Mr. Mummery, I've followed your instructions. Are you satisfied now?" Drake smiled faintly, his mood seemingly light. "Mr. Wilkie, this is just the beginning. Rest assured, I never shortchange my partners. Once Prospectus Technology collapses, the Wilkie Group will be the largest company in Saintornia." While this should have thrilled Pedro, he felt a nagging unease.
Drake was a dangerous man, and partnering with him felt like making a deal with the devil.
Sensing the old man's hesitation, Drake narrowed his eyes. "What's wrong, Mr. Wilkie? Are you doubting me?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStartled, Pedro quickly shook his head. "Not at all... I was just thinking about where we'll find new partners now that we've terminated the partnership with Prospectus Technology."
He was acutely aware that by betraying Prospectus Technology the Wilkie Group had burned bridges with many local businesses. Securing a new partnership would not be easy. en Drake chuckled. "Is that all? MK is willing to step in. They can resolve all of the Wilkie Group's current issues." Pedro shook his head. "Thank you, Mr. Mummery, but that won't be necessary. I already have potential partners in mind.
"MK might be a big company, but with its headquarters overseas, it's not ideal. The Wilkie Group is a small player: We're better off sticking with domestic partners." Seeing through Pedro's guarded tone, Drake didn't press the matter. He nodded. "Fair enough. You can letknow what you need anytime.
"But remember, my one condition is that you aggressively compete for Prospectus Technology's partnerships. No matter the cost, I'll cover any losses." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
