Everett’s brilliant expression made me instinctively lift the corner of my lips. “Mr. Llyod, there’s an old saying that fits you perfectly. Lifting a rock only to drop it on your own foot. It suits you perfectly.”

His jaw clenched, and his sharp gaze locked onto mine. “Ms. Sinclair, it’s far too soon to jump to conclusions. 300 million is nothing to me. This battle between us is far from over.”

“Is that so?” I responded with a faint smile. “In that case, Mr. Lloyd, let’s just wait and see.”

A crowd of reporters quickly surrounded Everett, bombarding him with questions. “Mr. Lloyd, what’s your take on the situation?” one asked.

Another reporter spoke up bluntly, “On paper, BPL may have secured the Azure Bay project, but everyone knows Eclipse Group is the true winner here.”

Everett’s face darkened.

Without answering, he let out a cold snort and turned to leave.

I meticulously outlined the strategies for the “Ice and Fire” jewelry collection.

Since Everett had publicly drawn a battle line with Eclipse Group, there was no reason for me to remain passive.
