Chapter 940:

Richard’s patience was wearing thin. “Fine! I’ll call him right now!” He pulled out his phone and dialed Alexander’s number.

The moment the call connected, Hackett snatched the phone right out of Richard’s hand.

“Alexander, let’s meet. Your position isn’t solid yet, and going against the association might not be the wisest move for Bennett Group, don’t you think? Besides, we mean no harm—just a conversation. If things don’t go well, we won’t force the issue.”

Against Daniela, they didn’t dare raise their voices, but when it came to Alexander, Hackett still carried an air of arrogance.

For a few seconds, the other end of the line was completely silent. Then came a cold, measured voice. “Tomorrow night at eight. Lynklee Cafe.”

The call abruptly cut off. Richard shot a furious glare at the eight men in front of him. “Would you even dare go up against Daniela? She crushed every single one of you, and now, with nowhere left to run, you crawl to Alexander? What a bunch of damn cowards!” His rage boiled over.

Hackett, unfazed, offered a composed smile. “If you want someone to blame, blame Daniela for being too powerful. If she weren’t, we wouldn’t be scrambling for solutions. But don’t worry—we have no intention of harming Alexander.”

Even after suffering heavy losses at Daniela’s hands, the eight most powerful companies in the association still held significant influence. Among them, Hackett remained the most influential—his authority was far from diminished.
