Lacey lowered her head and sighed.
Maybe she’s right...
She’s doing much better than me.
“If everything goes well, Linton Group will close down by today,” Emily scoffed. “You’ll probably be begging on the
streets in a while, but no worries, I’ll make sure to drop you a few pieces of bread when I see you.”
Mance grinned. “Why so cruel? You’ve known each other for such a long time after all. How about we give them a
choice?”
He proceeded to take out a contract and said, “Sell me Linton Group for twenty million. You’ll be able to live
comfortably after this. That’s all I can promise you.”
“Mance, weren’t you planning to offer two hundred million?” Emily asked curiously.
“Well, they simply aren’t worth that much anymore!” Mance answered.
The two of them started to laugh maniacally.

it.”
He proceeded to pull out a contract from his pocket.
Emily took it and scanned through its terms, before bursting into laughter again.
“My, oh my! I would never have seen this coming! Haha, where did you even get the guts to do this? You’re
overestimating yourself!”
Lacey and her family turned red with embarrassment.
What the hell is he doing? Their company probably costs a good two billion at the very least!
Why is he asking them to sell the company for two million? Where did the contract even come from?
Why is he so shameless?
Mance snatched over the contract and ripped it into pieces. “Right, Williams, I heard you’ve invited General North
and Master Healer Lowe for your opening ceremony? Are you getting them to force me sign this contract?”
“Huh? He invited them?” Emily exclaimed.
“It’s true, at least according to Linton Group’s Nutel Entertainment. Zeke Williams himself confirmed it!” Mance
said.
Emily whipped out her phone to check. “Oh, it’s really true! You’re so full of yourself! How shameless are you to
commit such a pretentious act?”
Everyone around them started to laugh.
“Aren’t you overestimating yourselves a little bit too much?”
“Mance Raider was the one who invited them, not you! Stop making things up!”
“He’s just blindly following the trends!”
“Nutel Entertainment is a fraud! I say we sue it!”
Lacey and her family wished they could dig themselves a hole and hide in it forever.
They regretted publishing that report greatly.
Stop embarrassing us, Zeke!
Suddenly, someone in the crowd yelled, “Look! There’s a bunch of military vehicles coming! Could it be General

Everyone turned their heads towards the roads.
A motorcade of military vehicles slowly made its way to the front of Raider Group.
Leading the motorcade was a Hongqi L5 limousine.
Only high-ranking people like colonels would be able to own such a car.
It would be near impossible for an ordinary person to purchase one, since it required the approval of the
government.
“Let’s go and welcome General North!” Mance said, smiling. “He might just burn down Linton Group upon hearing
that his name has been used in some fraudulent publicity stunt!”
The crowd dispersed as they headed towards Raider Group.
Lacey began to panic, while Zeke simply frowned.
What’s going on?
There’s no way Sole Wolf would dare to attend Raider Group’s opening ceremony without my permission.
That would be ridiculous!
Is that ‘General North’ even real?
