Spoiled By The Mighty After Dumping The Fuckboy

Chapter 60 Who’s the Mastermind Behind the Scenes?



The scene was in chaos.

Someone with sharp eyes noticed that Halley was also backstage. “The president of Sean Group is there. He must know what’s going on.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the reporters surrounded Halley.

“I heard that Olinka is your girlfriend. Did you approve of it?”

“Mr. Sean, please give me a direct answer.”

“Sorry, we are not being interviewed now.”

The security guards came in time to protect Halley from leaving. Amanda was alone in cleaning up the mess in such a large group.

“The Sean Group will definitely give everyone an explanation for this. As for Olinka’s personal actions or…”

Before Amanda could finish her sentence, the microphone in her hand was taken away, and a flat and powerful voice came from beside her. “The Byran Group will terminate its cooperation with the Sean Group.”

The reporters were all stunned, and the noise stopped abruptly.

Amanda looked at Iverson in surprise as well.

“He wants to terminate the cooperation?”

“The project was about to begin. So there was no benefit for either party to cancel the cooperation now.”

Iverson said, “What the Sean Group has done is in violation of social ethics, and it is also in violation of the Byran Group’s philosophy. I will apply for a suspension from this project and find a new partner.”

After that, he took Amanda’s hand and left.

The reporters swarmed over but were stopped by Iverson’s bodyguards.

“Sorry, we are not being interviewed now. Please go back.”

In the car, Amanda was still perturbed. “Do you really want to terminate the cooperation?”

“Do I look like I’m joking?”

“I know Olinka went too far this time, but her personal plan has nothing to do with the Sean Group. Besides, we’re about to start working on the project, so it’ll be a great loss to terminate the cooperation now.”

“Do you still think this is Olinka’s personal action?”

Iverson’s gaze fell on her, his eyes clear and rational.

Amanda was taken aback.

Before Iverson could reply, his assistant’s voice rang out from the front passenger seat. “Miss Jewell, forgive me for being blunt, but if it weren’t for Mr. Sean’s support, Olinka wouldn’t have had the guts to frame you like this. Why did they leak information to the media? Why did they hold a press conference so quickly? Wasn’t it all to kick you out of the project?”

Amanda thought of the latter half of the story. Still, she didn’t expect that the mastermind behind the incident was Halley.

“I was foolish,” Amanda said with a frown, “I didn’t expect him to risk the reputation of the Sean Group.”

Iverson said, “In his opinion, this is not a risk, but a win-win situation. Namely, you are no longer an employee of the Sean Group but the person in charge of the project. You can take responsibility for the project.”

“Despicable!”

“Don’t be angry, Miss Jewell. Our boss is here. How can the dirty tricks of such a person succeed? They’ve suffered a double loss. Olinka is in jail, and the project is gone. Our boss sent someone to investigate as soon as he saw the news. He’s worried that you’ll become a target.”

Jamie said a lot and praised Iverson.

Amanda was touched. “Thank you.”

“It’s too early to thank you,” Iverson said calmly. “Have you ever thought about breaking away from the Sean Group and taking over the project yourself?”

Amanda was taken aback. “Taking over the project myself?”

“Aren’t you planning to start your own company?”

“I haven’t finished my paperwork yet, and I haven’t found an office building yet…”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“No rush.”

The flat voice made Amanda calm as soon as the words came out.

Iverson said, “This project is a supplement from the government. Now that the Sean Group has been involved in a scandal, they have the right to take it back. It will take some time to re-enact the process. Take your time.”

“But can I do it alone? The new company may not be trusted.”

“There is no need for you to think about that. All you need to do is quickly form a team. Can you do that?”

Amanda suddenly felt more confident. “No problem.”

Nightfall.

The lights were still on in the Sean Group building.

The folder fell on the table with a bang and broke into pieces.

Halley clenched his fists and said with a gloomy expression, “Can’t you think of a solution with so many people? What am I feeding you for?”

“Mr. Sean, since this is Olinka’s personal doing, we can only fire her.”

“Fire her? Who’s in charge of the project?”

“Isn’t Miss Jewell always in charge of the project?”

“Miss Jewell, Miss Jewell, do you only care about Miss Jewell? Do you still care about me, Mr. Sean?”

Everyone went silent like cicadas in the winter.

At this time, the secretary hurried in. “Mr. Sean, something happened.”

“What is it? Speak!”

Halley sat down grumpily and drank tea.

The secretary said cautiously, “The Development Bureau has canceled our development rights, and the project is invalid.”

The entire hall was in an uproar.

Halley’s expression changed. He couldn’t believe what he had just heard. “What did you say?”

How was this possible?

They spent a lot of effort on this project and finally got the right to develop it. Because the company’s cash flow was insufficient to talk about the cooperation partner, they finally cooperated with the Byran Group.

From start to finish, they spent a year and a half.

Now that construction was just around the corner, the Sean Group would use the project to showcase its prowess. Its market value had risen, but had the right to develop the project taken back?

“The director of the Development Bureau personally issued the notice to cancel it. He said that we demolished it illegally and violated the original intention of development.”

“Impossible. The relocation work is done. Who’s going to take over this project if not us?”

The secretary broke out in algid sudor. “The Byran Group is taking over.”

Halley’s face was deathly pale and seemed to have fallen onto a chair.

Iverson, Iverson again.

“Mr. Sean, we’re out of business now, but the project team is ours. If we can still negotiate with the Byran Group, they might be willing to share some of the profits.”

“Yes, the construction team is ours. The development plan is also ours.”

Halley grasped the last glimmer of hope. “We can still negotiate. There’s still a chance.”

Someone cast a damp over, “But Miss Jewell has always been in charge of the development plan.”

Halley’s face changed again and again, and he regretted it.

It was late at night.

Amanda sent an email with the computer, took off her glasses, and placed them aside. She rubbed her temples.

Before going to bed, she glanced at the news of that day.

Now that the past two days’ incident had ended, the Sean Group naturally pushed the blame onto Olinka. They had let her off lightly by imprisoning her for fifteen days.

Her phone suddenly vibrated.

Seeing an unknown number, she pressed the answer button. “Hello?”

“Miss Jewell, is it? Nice to meet you. We’re the real estate agency. Do you want to rent an office building recently?”

Amanda was taken aback. “I want to rent it, but I’ve already hired another real estate agent.”

“Here’s the thing. We have an excellent office building that has just been vacated and urgently needs a sublet. The location is perfect, and it’s in the Sisson Tower. Would you like to consider it?”

“Sisson Tower?”

Amanda subconsciously glanced out of the window. “Isn’t that right across the street?”

It would be convenient for her to go to work if appropriate.
