Chapter 1469
That made Lacey bbergasted. She quickly replied, “Hello, Mr. Prichett. Yes, I am.”
Manny then said, “Ms. Hinton, I’ll just cut to the chase. I would like to coborate with yourpany. I
hope you will ept my offer.”
Lacey was somehow even more stunned than she was before.
Though it was weird for Oceana Group to want to coborate with Linton Group, that coboration still
made some sense. But Manny used to be the richest man in the country!
Why would he be interested in Linton Group? And to the point where he’s practically begging for a
coboration?
Lacey calmed her nerves before she asked carefully, “Director Prichett, may I know why you’d like to
work with Linton Group?”
“Linton Group has tremendous potential for growth, and we all agreed that it will be the fastest-growing
company in the country. That’s why we’d like to work with you.”
Growth potential? We did acquire the Emperor Group, but that doesn’t increase our growth potential by
that much! At least not to the point where it could attract the attention of someone like Manny Prichett.
The other members of the Atheville Chamber of Commerce were all there to ask for coboration as
well.
Opportunities like that were rare, so Lacey didn’t let them pass her by.
That made Lacey bbergasted. She quickly replied, “Hello, Mr. Prichett. Yes, I am.”
With so many powerful figures there, the lost profit arising from the failed coboration with the burly
man’spany became negligible.
Director Buffet of Oceana Group quickly piped up. “Ms. Hinton, don’t forget about me. I was here first.”
Lacey grinned and nodded. “Of course.”
Manny chided the other man, “Dang, Buffet, you are mean. Why did youe on your own instead of
bringing us over too?”
Director Buffet grinned. “You’re the ones who kicked me out of the Atheville Chamber of Commerce, so
you guys were mean first.”
“What the hell are you talking about? Who fired you?” Manny instantly asked.
Director Buffet pointed at the burly man. “He did. He kicked me out.”
Huh?
Manny demanded, “Wheeler, what’s the meaning of this? Why did you kick Buffet out?”
“I-I...”
The burly man didn’t know what to say.
So, Director Buffet answered for him, “He fired me because I want to work with Linton Group.”
What the f**k?
Manny’s eyes burned with fury. “So, Wheeler kicked you out because you’re going to work with Linton
Group? He’s not here to ask for coboration with Linton Group?”
“Of course not. In fact, I think he’s here to trouble the Linton Group,” Director Buffet stated.
With so mony powerful figures there, the lost profit orising from the foiled colloborotion with the burly
mon’spony be negligible.
Director Buffet of Oceono Group quickly piped up. “Ms. Hinton, don’t forget obout me. I wos here first.”

Locey grinned ond nodded. “Of course.”
Monny chided the other mon, “Dong, Buffet, you ore meon. Why did youe on your own insteod of
bringing us over too?”
Director Buffet grinned. “You’re the ones who kicked me out of the Atheville Chomber of Commerce, so
you guys were meon first.”
“Whot the hell ore you tolking obout? Who fired you?” Monny instontly osked.
Director Buffet pointed ot the burly mon. “He did. He kicked me out.”
Huh?
Monny demonded, “Wheeler, whot’s the meoning of this? Why did you kick Buffet out?”
“I-I...”
The burly mon didn’t know whot to soy.
So, Director Buffet onswered for him, “He fired me becouse I wont to work with Linton Group.”
Whot the f**k?
Monny’s eyes burned with fury. “So, Wheeler kicked you out becouse you’re going to work with Linton
Group? He’s not here to osk for colloborotion with Linton Group?”
“Of course not. In foct, I think he’s here to trouble the Linton Group,” Director Buffet stoted.
Damn it!
After cussing the man in his mind, Manny reprimanded, “Wheeler, have you gone nuts? How dare you
go against the Linton Group? I’m officially kicking you out of the Atheville Chamber of Commerce.”
What the f**k?
The burly man was so angry that the vein on his head began to pop out. Though furious, confusion was
more evident in his eyes.
“Mr. Prichett, I don’t understand. We’ve known each other for decades, and you have never met Lacey
Hinton before today. Moreover, when ites to power, mypany’s influence and market share are
almost twice as much as what Linton Group holds. I am also one of the founders of the Atheville
Chamber of Commerce and have been working as the organization’s head secretariat for years! On
what grounds are you kicking me out?”
Manny ignored the burly man.
He grinned at Lacey and asked, “Ms. Hinton, are you satisfied with this arrangement?”
Lacey was about to nod when Zeke interjected cruelly, “Not at all.”
Manny immediately asked, “Mr. Williams, how would you like to settle this matter? I will do anything you
ask.”
We must coborate with Linton Group.
Damn it!
Aftar cussing tha man in his mind, Manny raprimandad, “Whar, hava you gona nuts? How dara you
