Consequences of Dumping the Obsessive Boss: Stuck with Him Forever-Chapter 260: The Two’s Phone Call Was Monitored and Recorded
Cameron Young nodded, "We’ve tried all the methods that could be tested. We’re also in contact with the people who will ultimately decide who gets the land, but it’s hard to find a breakthrough. The Sinclair name is too prominent, plus Maxim Sinclair’s influence is quite strong."
"Are you implying that my influence isn’t as strong as his?"
Justin Huxley said this with a half-smile, which at first glance seemed like a joke, but Cameron Young knew very well how much he minded being compared to Maxim Sinclair.
Cameron felt a bit tense and hurriedly changed the topic, "Of course not. The most important thing right now is how to get the firsthand information from Maxim Sinclair’s side. We’re not sure which personnel the Sinclair family is dealing with. If we can identify that person, then we can find a way to remove them and put our person in place. That way, the Verdane land will certainly be ours."
"You’re saying... the most needed thing now is intelligence from Maxim Sinclair’s side?" Justin Huxley tapped his fingers lightly on the table, deep in thought.
Cameron Young knew what he was planning, nothing more than trying to get information through that young sister near Maxim Sinclair.
Justin Huxley pulled out his phone and opened Summer Lowell’s social media, seeing it was blank, he frowned and remarked, "Her habit of not posting on social media needs to change, otherwise we never know what her current situation is."
Unlike others present who were puzzled, Cameron Young knew whom he was referring to, and smiled, saying, "Perhaps you could continue through that mutual friend to arrange another meeting with Miss Lowell, to discuss cooperation matters. Verdane’s land cannot wait any longer; it’s imminent. Besides us, there are several companies secretly trying hard to snatch this piece of meat from the Sinclair family."
Justin Huxley toyed with his phone, a sarcastic smile on his lips, "What sort of companies, overestimating themselves, dare to compete with the Sinclair family?"
Cameron Young recalled some rumors he had heard elsewhere, "I guess they think Maxim Sinclair is enamored with a woman, which is an opportunity."
"That’s not the case; it’s because the Huxley family snatched a project from the Sinclair family before, giving those not-so-great companies the idea that they could try," Justin Huxley snorted coldly, "My uncle, who managed the Huxley family for a few years on behalf of my grandfather, turned the Huxley family’s reputation into this, ha."
"Then Mr. Huxley, you need to act quickly, while the timing is still not too late, hurry and grab the Verdane land. By leveraging Verdane’s land, you could advance further. Otherwise, sooner or later, President Huxley will run the Huxley family into being part of the Sinclair Group."
Cameron Young knew what he liked to hear and said every word to please him.
Justin Huxley was extremely pleased with the compliment, "When I chose you to be my assistant, aside from your meticulousness and boldness, your ability to speak was a characteristic I greatly valued. In a few days, when I go to negotiate with those people, you should come along."
Cameron Young’s eyes flickered, and she gently agreed.
...
Summer Lowell looked at her phone ringing for the sixth time, sighed softly, and answered the call, "Senior..."
In the attic on the top floor, a man leaning on his hand, drowsy, suddenly opened his eyes and gestured to the ponytailed woman talking to guests not far away, "Boss, Justin Huxley called the madam again."
As soon as he said this, everyone in the room sitting in front of computers turned their heads to look over.
The ponytailed woman called ’Boss’ walked over quickly, glancing coldly around, ensuring everyone remained silent, then turned on the speakerphone.
"Recently... I’ve been staying at the villa for now, painting, reading, exercising every day. I’ve been feeling lazy these past couple of days and don’t want to go out."
This was Summer Lowell’s voice.
Everyone had complex expressions, listening and taking notes.
"I recently discovered a new restaurant, their crab roe noodles are really authentic. The sea just reopened, and there are all kinds of plump crabs. Would you like to come out and taste them together? I happened to get a jar of top-quality huadiao wine from a friend, it pairs excellently with the crab, it’s delicious."
Sitting at the desk monitoring the call, Xiao Yang pouted.
Two days ago, the butler had fresh big crabs brought from the dock. Not only did the madam and the sir enjoy the delicacies, but even they, the special talents who rarely went downstairs from the attic, had eaten to their fill.
Justin Huxley’s invitation had no allure at all.
"No need, I haven’t been craving crab lately. I’m taking medicine to nourish my body and can’t eat cold foods." Summer Lowell calmly lied, already guessing Justin Huxley’s intention for calling today.
As expected, after a few more indifferent exchanges, Justin Huxley finally broached the real subject of today’s call.
"About the collaboration I mentioned last time, have you thought about it?" Justin Huxley played with a small ornament in his hand, patiently waiting for Summer Lowell’s response.
Summer remained silent for a moment, feigning ignorance, "Oh, you mean that collaboration? I forgot."
"Summer, we’ve known each other for so many years, let’s not play this game, who doesn’t know who!"
Justin Huxley pressed on relentlessly, "What are you afraid of?"
In the attic, everyone’s expressions grew serious, silently awaiting Summer Lowell’s reply.
After an unknown amount of time, Summer finally responded, "Don’t rush me, I know what I’m doing."
"Do you remember the place where we had dinner last time? Either today or tomorrow, pick a time to go there and mention my name. I’ll be there quickly, and we can discuss the cooperation in detail."
Summer impatiently agreed.
Justin Huxley, fearing that a cornered rabbit might bite, smiled, offering her a sweetener, "Being stuck in the villa isn’t easy, right? I remember, back in school, you told me your dream was to travel the world once you made a name for yourself. Now your career has been ruined by him, and you’re trapped in the villa by him, are you really content?"
"You don’t need to say this. I don’t need your reminder," Summer coldly interrupted, "Let’s leave it at that; I’m now in the bedroom and can’t say too much."
The call ended abruptly.
In the attic, those monitoring exchanged glances.
The man responsible for this task looked up at the leader standing next to him, "Boss, should we send the recording to the sir now?"
"Sort it out, and I’ll ask Assistant Collins. If the sir wants to hear the recording now, then we’ll send it immediately."
The ponytailed leader pursed her lips, "Swap out the people protecting madam for smart ones. Justin Huxley is a very cunning person, don’t let madam suffer a huge loss at his hands."
"But right now, madam is conspiring with him to harm our sir?" The man in charge of monitoring the call said indignantly, evidently disliking Summer Lowell.
