Chapter 11
"Where’s Miss Sue?" Liam asked in a seemingly casual manner.
Harvey thought that Liam was just asking casually, so he figured he could just cook up an excuse and
be done with it. "She's sick. I’ll be responsible for the follow-up collaboration with your company in the
future."
Liam nodded and said, "In that case, let's talk after Miss Sue recovers."
Liam then turned and left after speaking.
Harvey froze for a moment before quickly catching up with Liam and saying, "Mr. Jude, it's the same
even if I’m heading this project. Don’t worry, I'm much more capable than Yvonne. Collaborating with
your company-"
Before Harvey could finish speaking, Liam stopped beside his car. "There are plenty of people who
want t o collaborate with Weakriver Real Estate. Since the Sue family appears very much insincere, I'll
have to reconsider the collaboration."
Harvey stood dumbfounded as he watched Liam's car drive away. He thought that Liam would not care
much about that at all, but what surprised him was Liam's tough as nails attitude. 1 'I’ll have to
reconsider the collaboration!'
That sentence made Harvey's scalp numb. The Sue family had always been a company of average
strength amongst their many competitors. Being able t o secure the collaboration was a rarity in itself.
Would the old lady not kill him if it was destroyed in his hands? 2
What should he do?
Did he really have to ask Yvonne to come forward?
Harvey was unwilling to resign himself to that. He had just only demonstrated his influence to Yvonne
the night before. Would he still have a reputation if he asked her to clean up his mess?
It was then that Harvey's phone rang.
"Harvey, your grandma has already arrived at the company. Is Liam here yet?" Lionel asked. He was
actually rather smug at that juncture because the opportunity he seized from Yvonne could cement
Harvey's position in the company. As long as Harvey completed everything, Lionel would certainly
become the chairman of the Sue family's company.
"I'm coming to the meeting room right away," Harvey replied solemnly.
All the relatives of the Sue family were present in the meeting room. After all, it was such an important
project, and in order to show their sincerity, no one dared to be absent.
Grandmother Sue sat at the chairman’s seat, and when she saw Harvey coming to the meeting room
alone, she asked, "Hasn't Liam arrived yet?"
"Grandma." Harvey lowered his head and greeted her. 1
Grandmother Sue eyebrows wrinkled and she questioned, "What’s the matter? You didn't offend Liam,
did you?"
The other Sue family members cast worried looks at Harvey when they heard Grandmother Sue's
question, none more so than Lionel. He was still proud that Harvey got this opportunity, but if Harvey
messed up, the hope for him to take up the chairman’s seat in the future was slim.
"What’s the matter, Harvey? Did Liam change the time because he isn’t free?" Lionel asked.
"Liam was very angry because Yvonne didn't show up. He said... He said ..."
Seeing Harvey's incoherent mumbling, the old lady slapped the conference table and asked sharply,"
What did he say?"
Harvey quieted down and said quickly, "He said he would reconsider the collaboration with the Sue
family."
The old lady was fuming and glared at him in anger. If Harvey did not come looking for her the previous
night, the person in charge of that project would never have been changed and Liam would not have
ended u p being angry.
There were plenty of companies coveting that collaboration, and even more individuals who wanted t o
get a handful of wool from that fat sheep. The Sue family had already gotten that opportunity, but they
might have missed it because of Lionel and his son.
"Harvey, Lionel, if the Sue family fails to collaborate with Weakriver Real Estate, both of you will be
kicked out of the family." The old lady gritted her teeth. 1
When father and son heard these words, their faces paled. They never would have expected such
serious consequences to occur, i
Moreover, the old lady had always kept her word, so if she told them to leave, they would definitely not
be allowed to stay.
"Grandma, the contract has already been signed. Can h e renege on it?" Harvey asked in
dissatisfaction. 1
The old lady sneered, "Don’t you know who's behind Weakriver Real Estate? What can we do to
Weakriver Real Estate with our capabilities? Would you dare to take the compensation if they hand it
over to you?"
The old lady's words made the rest of the Sue family members afraid to breathe. As she said, who
would dare to take the compensation if it was delivered to their door? The people behind Weakriver
Real Estate were none other than the Hannigan family!
"Yvonne's the only one who has the chance to save this. Discuss amongst yourselves and decide on
how you'll deal with it." The old lady left them with that sentence and departed angrily.
The other Sue family members looked at Harvey with a slightly different expression. They knew that
Yvonne's position in the company would soon rise after that incident, and it may well threaten Harvey’s
position.
In the past, they fawned over Harvey because Harvey had the most optimistic prospect of becoming
the company chairman. However, the old lady's impression of Harvey had inevitably dropped after
Harvey's error in judgment, and the chairman position could no longer be considered a done deal.
"Harvey, you’re the only person who can think of a solution to this problem. We can't help you."
"Yeah, we want to help but we can't. The old lady is getting really angry. You should think of a solution
as soon as possible."
"We have other things to deal with, so we'll be leaving first."
The group of relatives made themselves scarce.
