CHAPTER 492 YOU GUYS ARE ALREADY OUT
Meanwhile, Caroline knew nothing about Marcel and Isaac’s plan. She went nowhere else except for
Summer’s house and her office.
The Sutton loft was far away from the J Group Building, and it took Caroline an hour to get to her office
on time.
On this day, Irene gave a list of corporations to her. "This is a list of corporations who are seeking
cooperation with us. Meet their representatives this afternoon and screen the qualified candidates."
"OK."
Caroline took the list and went to the reception room, only to find a man waiting for her there.
Dressed in a pattern shirt whose top two buttons were undone, the man had his chest peek out from
under the front. Meanwhile, there was a charming and seductive smile on his face. No other man could
ever pull off this look, except for Caleb.
"What are you doing here, Caleb?"
Caroline stepped back in surprise.
Just as she was about to call security, Caleb beamed a smile. "It seems that you don’t take your work
seriously, Miss Ford. How can you drive your business partner away?"
"Business partner?"
Caroline ran through the names on the list in disbelief.
A moment later, she found the Grant-Sun Group, one of the Grant family’s businesses.
With that, Caroline refused him without thinking, poker-faced. "The L Group won’t cooperate with you.
You’re out."
Caleb knew this would happen, so he passed a document to Caroline with a smile. "Please take a look
at this."
Caroline took the document and looked at it, astonished.
"I don’t think you know that Mr. Cohen has already taken the Grant family under his wing. Now that we
are family, we should work together and it’s good for both of us, am I right? Let me show you how
sincere we are to work with you."
In the document, it said that the Grant family was willing to give 20% of their shares to the L Group as
the initial capital for their Hopkins branch.
Caroline couldn’t refuse that, so she had no choice but to put a tick behind the Grant-Sun Group.
The smile on Caleb’s face widened. "I hope we will both enjoy our cooperation, Miss Ford."
After that, he left the reception room.
When he came out of the building, he called Lennon, his grandfather.
"Grandpa, it’s settled."
"Great!" Lennon said excitedly. "The next step is to open up Emerdale’s market. Go to Emerdale
tomorrow and work out the deal with any other family under Leo’s wing. The profit they’ll make is much
more than 20% of the Grant-Sun Group’s shares."
"Yes, grandpa," Caleb replied ambitiously.
If he could swallow up those family businesses in Leo’s team, the Grant family would be second to
none and come back at Leo.
Ring ring ring…
At this moment, Caleb got a call from a stranger.
"Hello, you are?" Caleb asked with a frown.
"Do you remember me, Mr. Grant?"
Then came a hearty burst of laughter from the other end of the line.
Caleb’s frown deepened. He found the voice familiar, but he couldn’t remember who it was exactly.
The man continued, "I’ll give you a hint. Hudson."
Caleb caught on immediately. "You’re Marcel?"
"Exactly," Marcel smiled. "I want to work with you, Mr. Grant."
"What is it?" Caleb asked.
Marcel told him the plan.
Caleb’s lips curved into a smile as Marcel finished speaking. "OK. But let me get one thing straight. I
won’t step in personally. When it’s done, I’ll join you. Is that all right?"
"Of course," Marcel agreed at once. "I’ll be waiting for the day when the Grant family becomes the top
family in Hopkins."
Caleb played along. "If that ever happens, the Grant family will treat you as family!"
Later that day, Caroline handed the document Caleb had given her to Leo.
Leo glanced over it and said with a smile, "You must be exhausted having met those representatives
the whole morning. Now take a break."
It was after Caroline left his office that Leo gave a faint smile.
Finally, the Grant family got down to action.
Did they think he noticed nothing?
The next moment, Leo called Justin, who was far away in Emerdale.
"The Grant family will send their people to Emerdale to work out the deal with us in the next few days.
Tell the Simpsons, the Stewarts, the Spencers, the Perrys and the other families not to refuse them, but
our people have to raise the bar. If the Grant family asks why, tell them it’s because they aren’t from
Emerdale."
Justin asked in surprise, "Isn’t it regional discrimination, Mr. Cohen?"
Leo chuckled. "They come from Hopkins, while we Emerdale. It involves a great deal of risk for us to
work with them, so we have to make them spend some real money."
Justin laughed. "That makes perfect sense, Mr. Cohen."
Irene gave a list of fifty corporations to Caroline, and soon she narrowed down the list to a dozen. After
that, she started to meet their representatives one by one.
"Please let the next on in," Caroline told her assistant.
Before long, a man and a woman came in, both of them excited.
However, their faces clouded over the moment they saw Caroline.
"Why are you here?"
"It’s you!" Caroline exclaimed, staring at the young man and woman in amazement.
What an unpleasant surprise.
The visitors were actually Isaac and Yasmin.
Caroline’s lips curved into a contemptuous sneer slowly.
"So, you’re the representatives of the Sutton Manufacturing Plant?"
"It’s us. What?"
Both Isaac and Yasmin were embarrassed to see the sneer on Caroline’s face.
When they first met, Isaac assumed that Caroline was in middle management at most, but she turned
out to be the representative of the L Group.
No wonder she could take out ten hundred thousand without batting an eye.
"Nothing. Tell the next one to come in," Caroline said with a plastic smile.
The first remark was meant for Isaac and Yasmin, while the latter her assistant.
Isaac flew into a rage. "Hold on. You haven’t seen our proposal yet, and now you’re moving on to the
next one?"
Caroline took a sip of coffee. "I don’t need to see your proposal because you guys are already out. The
L Group refuses to work with any corporation with low moral standards."All content is property © .
Isaac and Yasmin could tell Caroline was taking advantage of this opportunity to get even with them,
their eyes darkening all of a sudden.
"Don’t go too far, Caroline. Don’t ever think you can represent the L Group and insult us just because
you’re sitting in that seat."
"But I am insulting you guys. What are you going to do with me?"
Caroline put down her coffee cup and suddenly spilled her coffee all over the document in Yasmin’s
hands.
Now that the papers were stained dark brown, the words on them were unreadable.
"You have coffee spilled all over your papers, and I can’t see the words on them. Take it away."
Caroline waved them away as if she was whisking the flies off.
Isaac blushed with anger instantly. "You bitch! How dare you…"
Meanwhile, Yasmin was ready to fight, but Caroline had already called security.
Bang!
A group of security guards burst in and drove the two people away.
