Chapter 179



The big boss was like a phantom-always around but never seen, yet he seemed to know everything that happened in the company.

Conrad's anger was palpable as he turned it towards Grant. "Refusing to cooperate? Do you even know who you're talking to? Do you know who I am?"

Grant, clutching a coffee mug, had this smirk on his face that wasn't making it to his eyes.

"My boss mentioned that even if we have to leave Seabreeze City, we still wouldn't collaborate with you," Grant's words were as sweet as they were

venomous.
