Chapter 896


    Chapter 896 Daniel‘s gaze was filled with anger. ‘Even a blind man can tell that Aunt Zhenny is the one


    behind this.


    ‘I truly don‘t understand why she must cause me trouble all the time.


    ‘Previously, she provoked Mr. Tissot and Mr. Wilson. Then, she poached the project manager. Now, she


    has bribed these people toe and force us to shut down the project.


    “The petrochemical project clearly has an eighty percent chance of sess. Why does Aunt Zhenny


    still try to sabotage us?‘ He clenched his fists and turned, wanting to leave.


    As soon as he took a step, he saw Adina and Duke emerge from the waiting area. His eyes widened in


    shock. “Adina, why are you here?” She smiled. “If I hadn‘te here, I wouldn‘t have known someone


    would go to such lengths to sabotage our project.‘ She shifted her gaze to the paunchy man. He could


    not help but turn his head to avoid her sharp gaze guiltily.


    However, when he turned to look in another direction, he noticed another person was staring at him


    with a sharp gaze too. Duke could not help but smirk. “Nice to see you again, Mr. Juan.”


    The paunchy man, Ro Juan, is the minister of Housing and Urban–Rural Development and has


    been working around major construction sites for a long time. He used to work with Duke.


    When Ro saw Duke, he felt as if he had just seen the shadow of death.


    The scar on Duke‘s face has gradually recovered. He looked intimidating and domineering when he


    raised his eyebrow. It was like an eagle who had revealed its sharp ws.


    “M–Mr. Winters.” Ro shuddered. “It‘s so nice to see you here.”


    He walked over to Duke and shook his hand.


    Duke looked at him coldly. “I heard that there‘s a problem with the project, and that it needs to shut


    down. May I know what‘s the problem, specifically?”


    Ro‘s forehead was drenched in a cold sweat. “Hehe, Mr. Winters, I didn‘t know that you would care


    about such trivial matters.”


    –– “Why don‘t I call the reporters?” Duke smiled. “Mr. Juan, whatever that you need to say, you


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    can say it publicly. This will avoid people saying that some other forces have put you up to this.”


    Ro‘s face turned pale.


    “The Winters family is the most powerful family in Sea City. The Juan family is as insignificant as an ant


    when we‘re facing the Winters family. ‘If Duke were to really call the reporters, they‘ll ruin me…’


    “M–Mr. Winters…” Ro forced a smile and said, “We can always talk in private. There‘s no need to


    make a huge deal out of it.”


    “This matter involves my wife. You‘re right. We can talk this through privately.”


    Duke nodded calmly. Ro‘s body stiffened. ‘Wife?! ‘Duke‘s wife!!


    ‘I thought they were divorced! ‘Zhenny told me that Adina and Duke are divorced, so no one will back


    her up. That‘s why I dared to ask them to shut down the project!


    ‘But now…


    He had started sweating profusely. Now he understood why Duke hade to the construction site.


    He hurriedly said, “Mr. Winters, this is just a misunderstanding. I‘m just joking around. Hehehe. Mr.


    Tissot, Mr. Wilson, there‘s no problem with this project. You can continue with it. If you have any


    problem, don‘t hesitate to give me a call!”


    Ro‘s attitude instantly changed.


    Graham and Matthew were stunned.


    They knew that the Winters Corporation was very powerful, and it was extremely beneficial for anyone


    who brings up the corporation. However, they did not know that it had this much power.


    Adina smiled. “Thank you, Mr. Juan, for being amodating. I‘ll definitely invite you to the dinner


    party after the project ispleted.” Ro continued to force a smile on his face as he left with the


    crowd of wealthy men.
