The news of Kingly Group’s tax evasion spread quickly, and was suppressed just as fast. However, it still had a certain impact in the business world. The few partners that Kingly Group had managed to win back previously began to hesitate because of this incident, and put their signings on hold.
The Yoder Group did manage to snatch away several major clients from the Kingly Group, and their stock price also kept climbing.
Barbara also submitted new evidence to the court for Sean’s case, clearing Sean of suspicion. The project also resumed construction.
At the top floor of Kingly Group, in the largest conference room, Robinson was convening a shareholders‘ meeting.
“Mr. Lightfoot, our company’s profits have significantly decreased recently, and Panda Chip did not reach the initial projected sales volume.”
“Not only that, but we also lost several major collaborations. If this continues, Kingly Group might become increasingly difficult.” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Moreover, there have been constant reports recently, and the higher–ups have already come to investigate several times. Everyone in the company is already on edge.”
Robinson’s expression was indifferent, and his tone did not fluctuate at all.

“Don’t worry, these matters can be handled well. Those lost collaborations are gone, and what’s most important now is the real estate summit next month. As long as our company can participate, there will be plenty of potential partners then.”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces turned even more unpleasant. Participating was easier said than done.
“Mr. Lightfoot, Kingly Group wanted to participate last year, but they didn’t succeed…”
“I had already notified the reporting party, Kingly Group was definitely able to participate this year.”
Robinson appeared calm and confident.
But upon hearing this, the faces of the shareholders below instantly changed, their eyes filled with surprise and disbelief.
“Mr. Lightfoot, was what you said true?!”
Robinson nodded, “I knew the organizer, it was just about adding a company. They made the call in front of me at the time, just prepare well.”
Suddenly, all the shareholders‘ faces lit up with joy, and they began to discuss animatedly.
“As long as we could participate in this summit, the Yoder Group wouldn’t stand a chance against the Kingly Group!”
“Don’t even mention the Yoder Group, even the Cameron Group was left far behind!”
“Hahaha, Kingly Group becoming the largest company in Haseton is just around the corner!”

On the other side, Maxim had also convened a board meeting to discuss matters of the real estate summit.
Although the shareholders wished for the Yoder Group to attend the summit, they also knew that the Yoder Group might not have the qualifications to participate.
“Mr. Yoder, this summit was by invitation only, companies that did not receive an invitation could not attend.”
Maxim’s expression was icy as he said, “Kingly Group is likely to pull strings to attend this summit, so the Yoder Group must also attend!”
Otherwise, once the summit was over, Kingly Group was very likely to seize the opportunity to climb up, and by then, the Yoder Group would be in danger.
“But, we didn’t know the organizers of the summit, how could we possibly attend?”
“Exactly, I thought Kingly Group definitely wouldn’t participate, after all, Kingly Group didn’t have the qualifications to be shortlisted!”
“I also thought that recently, the Yoder Group’s focus should still be on how to develop steadily. They can’t bite off more than they can chew!”
Watching the shareholders who were backing out before even trying to find a solution, a glint of coldness flashed in Maxim’s eyes. He said icily, “In Haseton, if you don’t develop rapidly, you’ll be eliminated. No one will wait for your steady growth!”
The shareholders didn’t dare to meet Maxim’s gaze, they all lowered their heads in silence.
The conference room suddenly became incredibly quiet, to the point where one could almost hear each other’s breathing.
“How to get the Yoder Group to attend the summit, I will figure it out. You guys focus on your current work now, there must be no slack off!”
