Chapter 147
The other party would rather forgo the initial costs than continue with the cooperation.
“Don’t bother me with such trivial matters. What’s the point of me earning a high sry to support
you all? Just get out. All of you!” Jeffrey shouted,pletely losing his demeanor as a chairman.
Peter nced at Jeffrey, who’d lost hisposure,
His eyes were bloodshot as he said, “Dad, ourpany probably won’tst much longer. It’s clear
that someone is intentionally targeting us.”
*Targeting us? Paul doesn’t have that capability, and Joe would never listen to him.
“It doesn’t make sense for them to target apany that’s already well established,” Jeffrey said,
shaking his head. This was something he couldn’tprehend.
Where did things go wrong? Why would someone deliberately target him? It was as if they wanted
to destroy all the hard work he’d put in over the years.
“Paul cannot openly target us. It’s also unlikely that Joe would follow his instructions.
“The person must have the power for thepanies to toe the line and cease cooperation with us.
But there are only so many individuals with that level of influence in Jipsburg,” Peter said in his
deep voice.
Jeffrey frowned and continued, “It seems we’ve been heading in the wrong direction. We shouldn’t
focus on retrieving thepanies. Rather, we should find out who’s targeting us.”
Suddenly, a person came across Peter’s mind. “Could it be Skye? She hates us.”
Peter used to ponder when alone–why would Skr hate them? He couldn’t understand.
Skr grew up poor in the countryside. However, her life improved significantly when she stayed
with the Williams family..
Could it be dissatisfaction?
“Her? She doesn’t have the capability, either,” Jeffrey disagreed.
“She can’t do it herself. But she can if she finds a powerful benefactor. Perhaps we’ve been
mistaken from
the start. Her benefactor isn’t Paul.
“There’s definitely someone else. Someone influential in Jipsburg,” said Jeffrey.
Although he’d hate to admit it, Skr was prettier than Maisy. Men of all ages were attracted to
young,
beautiful girls. And Skr was young and beautiful.
Jeffrey calmed down a little but continued, “I’m gonna kill her if she’s the one behind this. You need
to Investigate and find out who her benefactor is.”
Peter nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll have someone look into it.”
Kenny, who happened to be at thepany to check on things, overheard their conversation at the
door.

He felt ufortable and frowned saying, “We haven’t been very good to Skye all this time.”
“What do you mean? Ever since we found out she’s part of our family, we took her in. We let her live
in our
home and offered her to study abroad.
“She’s just too greedy. Wanting everything and always disobeying us. We’re better off without
someone like her!” Jeffrey shouted when he heard Kenny..
In Jeffrey’s eyes, Skr was at fault.
Peter also disagreed and asked, “Kenny, what’s been going on with you these past few days? Why
do you keep defending Skr?
“Ever since she lived with us, our attitude toward her has been constant throughout. Didn’t you say
before
that she was disobedient?”
“We were all too focused on Maisy and neglected to consider what she was thinking. The more I
think about Maisy and Christophertely, the more uneasy I be,” Kenny confessed.
Peter couldn’t tolerate it any longer and asked, “Kenny, do you trust Skr over Maisy?
“We’ve been watching Maisy grow up. If we give Skr equal treatment, wouldn’t Maisy feel hurt?
Skr should care about Maisy like we do and not treat her coldly. That is, if she was obedient.
“Now, she’s even colluding with outsiders against our family. Moreover, Maisy needs her blood but
she isn’t willing to donate any. We’ll have to think of another solution.”
Kenny was speechless for a moment.
Harvey was pacing back and forth outside the Gardner Group while asionally ncing toward
the
entrance.
Just as it was lunchtime, Skr dashed out of the building.
