A Replacement Bride

Chapter 350

Mason was breathing heavily, and he looked like he could eat someone alive. "What is it? You had an issue, yet you're blaming others for running checks on you, huh?"

William didn't seem too bothered by his father's comment and simply changed the topic. "Don't you find it odd, Dad? Why have we been so unlucky recently? They found issues in the past two or three projects that they checked. Specifically, the projects at Jade Lake and the holiday resort on the outskirts of Northside were both projects that I handled well. It got past all the inspections, and all that had been left was the final acceptance check. Why would they dig these projects up for reinspection?"

Mason frowned upon hearing William's words. "Are you saying that someone's messing with us?" Mason was immediately distracted by this thought. He had considered this possibility in the past, but everything had happened so quickly, and he had too much on his plate. He was too exhausted even to contemplate this matter.

"That's right," William uttered firmly. "This whole thing is too fishy, and it's all happening at the same time. I'm sure someone is messing with us. We have to find the culprit behind this, or we'll be dead meat!" he exclaimed.

Mason clenched his jaw as his expression turned grim. "Well, what good would it do for us to know who's responsible for this? That doesn't help us to resolve our current situation!"

William didn't seem to have fully comprehended the severity of the matter. "You never know! After all, the Morans are one of the most powerful families in Kyoland. Who would dare mess with us? This person is probably hiding because they are afraid our family will try to get revenge. If we manage to hunt this person down, we can teach them a lesson and bring our family out of the troughs. I think this plan would work," he uttered with a scoff.

"It's not that simple!" Mason growled. Right then, his phone rang. It was a call from his assistant. He felt his head pounding at the sight of the call, and the corner of his eyebrow twitched a little before he picked the call up. "What is it this time?"

The assistant sounded more flustered than before. "We just got the news, Mr. Mason. The partners who ended their contracts with us have just officially started a partnership with W Co.!"
