Chapter 28

Freya found herself at a loss for words.

She had sought to restore Kieran's reputation by starting conversations with several high-profile ladies at the dinner party regarding Ronan.

But no one had warned her that Ronan was the type to hold grudges! Moreover, how on earth did these stories reach Ronan's ears?

Freya steadied herself and said, "Mr. Beckett, Echo City is only worth half a billion dollars. Kieran had fabricated the financials to lure you into a trap and make you face losses."

Ronan let go of Freya and sat down on the couch to pour himself a cup of coffee. Without looking up, he said, "Go on."

"Echo City's starting bid has to be three hundred million. Kieran plans to inflate the price up to four billion. By then, Mr. Beckett... you would stand to lose over three billion, drastically weakening the Beckett family's financial standing, which perfectly serves as his revenge for you outbidding him on the urban development project last time."

Ronan sipped his coffee and asked, "How much did Kieran pay you?"
