It was Mance who had arrived with the urban planning department director Mr. Garett Zahner.

Mance stepped into the building and saw Sleek Rat and his men laying on the ground.

A vortex of anger swirled inside him, not because of Zeke but because of how useless Sleek Rat and his men were!

They could not even defeat a man who lives off his wife? Useless!

He hopped down from the car and shouted at Zeke. “Hello, we meet again!”

Zeke responded in a cold voice, “Why are you here? Get out.”

The more agitated Zeke got, the more delighted Mance became. He smirked. “Why not? Now that my brother Michael is the man in charge of this project, I’m here to monitor the progress.”

He sneered and continued, “Oops! Looking at the mess here, you won’t be able to hand over the project on time. I guess you’ll have to compensate the Riverdale district council then. Also, my boys came to demolish the buildings because they do not comply with the construction standards. Who are you to stop them and beat them up? I’ll sue you for assault!”

Zeke exclaimed, “B*llshit! Nancy is still the owner of this project!”

Mance responded, “So, you’re still trying to pretend you don’t know what’s going on, I see. She has given the project to Michael. I’ve brought Mr. Garett Zahner from the urban planning department here to come and inspect the site to make you lose all hope.”



Mance then turned around and looked at Garett.


Garett said boldly, “That’s right, Nancy has given the project to Michael, and I was there to witness the handover. Now the person in charge is Michael. He realized the project violated some construction regulations, so that’s why he came to demolish the buildings. How could you stop him and even hurt his men?”

Garett continued, “Besides, the project department under Linton Group has signed the bet-on agreement with the district council. If you can’t complete the project by tonight, you’ll have to compensate one billion to the council. Just wait for the penalty!”

Mance burst out laughing. “Mr. Williams, game over. I heard the Linton Group is not doing well financially, so I don’t think the company will have enough money to pay the penalty. If that’s the case, then Linton Group might be forced to declare bankruptcy.”

Nancy jumped down from the car and yelled, “Michael forced me to sign the transfer document! It holds no legal effect and must be declared void! Besides, Garett Zahner was not there. He lied.”

Garett Zahner said coldly, “Shut up. I can sue you for defamation!”



“You...” Nancy was so mad that she could no longer say a thing.

“Haha!” Michael let out a laugh and walked towards Mance. “Mr. Williams, it’s over. Guess we have the last laugh.”

He turned to the men and said, “Boys, wake up and continue to demolish the buildings! Since all these buildings violate the construction standards, we have to take them down and rebuild them again!”

Zeke responded with a grin, “How confident of you to say you have the last laugh. Show me the ownership transfer agreement. You shall not touch anything here unless you show me the proof.”

Michael rolled his eyes at Zeke. “Will you just give up already? Fine! Be prepared to concede defeat!”

He then reached for the transfer agreement.

Just when he was about to take out the agreement, he realized something was not right.

F**k, who dumped a cigarette into my pocket?

The cigarette had burned a hole through the transfer agreement!

He quickly took out the document and check the pages.

The part that was burned was exactly where Nancy dropped her signature and stamp!

His world suddenly turned topsy-turvy.

That’s it. My effort has been all in vain. All these men were beaten up for nothing!
