Sol said aggrievedly, "Dad, I didn't offend anyone. I just came here to visit Vice Chairman Vivian.
But I didn't even get to see Vice Chairman Vivian..."
On the other end of the phone, Sol's father cursed angrily, "The people from the Delaney Group said that the reason they terminated the cooperation with the Hardy family is that you are a low-quality piece of trash!Now the family has suffered heavy losses because of you. Hurry up and get back here and explain to your grandfather in person!"
Sol was thrown out of the Delaney Group by the security guards. Holding the phone, he looked stunned. He suddenly thought of Alan and couldn't help asking Tasha, "Tasha, could it be because of your poor brother-in-law? Could he have any connection with the Delaney Group?" Tasha was startled by Sol's words. After thinking carefully, it was indeed possible that it had something to do with Alan. However, he was clearly a good-for-nothing! Thinking of this, she shook her head firmly and said, "How could he have any connection with the Delaney Group? He's not even qualified to clean the toilets in the Delaney Group!" That's right... Sol nodded. Thinking of his furious father, he said dejectedly, "No, I have to go home right away..." The news that the Hardy family had all its cooperation with the Delaney Group terminated spread throughout Pras City immediately.Although no one knew why the Delaney Group wanted to boycott the Hardy family, everyone knew that the Hardy family must have offended the Delaney Group, and now the Hardy family was finished.
The strength of the Hardy family had been greatly reduced. It had been close to the standard of a first-tier family, but now it had directly fallen to the bottom of the second-tier families. When the old lady of the Mill family heard the news, she was so angry that she was shaking all over.She really wanted to annul the engagement between Tasha and Sol, but thinking that the Hardy family, even in decline, was still more powerful than some other families, she had to give up for the time being...
The two pieces of news released by the Delaney Group completely set off a stir in the entire Pras City.
After hearing that the Delaney Group had a new owner, the Mill family finally understood why the Hardy family had been kicked out by the Delaney Group. It seemed that the new owner of the Delaney Group looked down upon families like the Hardy family. However, who on earth is the chairman of the Delaney Group? This person is truly amazing! The Delaney Group, worth tens of billions, was bought just like that. Even the richest person in Pras City isn't as wealthy as him! For a moment, all the families were eager to establish a connection with this mysterious chairman. On the other hand, they also hoped that their daughters could marry the chairman of the Delaney Group. In addition, the Delaney Group was going to invest in a hotel project worth One billion US dollars. This news also shocked the entire construction and decoration industry in Pras City! One billion US dollars! Even getting a small part of it could bring in a huge profit! Countless companies wanted to get a share of this project. This also includes the old lady who is eager for money and can't resist the temptation of money. The head of the Mill family is extremely excited at this moment. A big project worth two billion yuan is truly an excellent opportunity! If the Mill family can obtain a contract from this project, they will definitely be able to make a large sum of money! So, she immediately gives the order to convene a family meeting at home tonight.Discuss how to make a breakthrough in the Delaney Group's new project. Everyone must attend!
That night, at the Mill family's villa. Because the head of the family required that everyone must be present, Alan also went along. He knew that the head of the family was going to hold a meeting to discuss how to get a share of the big project of the Delaney Group. So, he wants to take this opportunity to give his wife a hand! When they arrived at the Mill family's villa, Mia's cousin Carlson immediately sneered at Alan as soon as he saw him: Alan, you have such a thick skin. You still have the nerve to see Grandma! Mia said with a cold face: Stop talking nonsense. Grandma required that everyone in the Mill family must be present. Alan is my husband, and he is naturally a member of the Mill family! Carlson laughed and said, "He's nothing in the Mill family! He's just a son-in-law who married into the family!" Alan touched his nose and said to Mia: Forget it, honey. Don't argue with him. Let's go in quickly. Don't keep Grandma waiting. Mia nodded and led Alan in. After entering the conference hall, Alan and Mia found a seat in the corner and sat down. Soon, the head of the Mill family stepped in, and the family meeting officially began.The head of the Mill family sat in the main seat and knocked on the table.
She said with high spirits, "The Mill family has been waiting for an opportunity in recent years, an opportunity that can make us among the prestigious families in Pras City! Now, this opportunity has finally come!" The head of the Mill family said loudly, "This time, the Delaney Group has launched a big project worth two billion yuan. Whoever can get a cooperation contract from it will surely benefit a lot! Moreover, this is the first big project after the Delaney Group has changed its owner. It's a great opportunity for our Mill family! If we can cooperate with the Delaney Group and leave a good impression on the new owner of the Delaney Group, the future development of the Mill family will be limitless!" Seeing that everyone present was silent, the head of the Mill family asked angrily, "What? Have you all become mute? Don't you have the confidence to secure a contract from the Delaney Group? Everyone looked at one another and didn't dare to utter a word. The old lady's expression became even angrier. Gritting her teeth, she said, "I'm putting it here today. Whoever can negotiate a contract worth 30 million US dollars from the Delaney Group will be the general manager of the group!" The old lady has always been autocratic, so she has never set up the position of general manager in the group. After all, the general manager has great power, and almost only the future successor of the group is qualified for this position. Now that the old lady is using this position as a reward, it can be seen that she is extremely eager for the project of the Delaney Group.However, although the position of general manager is a good one, it's not that easy to obtain.
In the eyes of the members of the Mill family, it's simply impossible to reach a cooperation with the Delaney Group and secure a contract worth thirty million dollars. Even if the head of the Mill family goes in person, the senior executives of the Delaney Group won't meet her, let alone talk about cooperation. There was complete silence in the family meeting hall. Seeing this, the head of the Mill family asked furiously, "As descendants of the Mill family, is there no one willing to share the worries of the Mill family?" After saying that, the head of the Mill family directly looked at Carlson and said, "Carlson, I'm leaving this matter to you!" Carlson quickly said, "Grandma, even the Hardy family has been kicked out by the Delaney Group now." Our strength is even weaker than that of the Hardy family. There's no way we can get the contract..." The head of the Mill family cursed, "Useless! You don't even dare to try. You're even more useless than that good-for-nothing Alan!" The head of the Mill family doesn't want to keep being the leader of a second- or third-rate family. She dreams of the Mill family making further progress. And this project of the Delaney Group is the only opportunity. So, no matter how difficult it is, she's not willing to give up.

Ivy felt a little guilty. After all, the three people who had played mahjong with her today, along with a group of thugs, had all been sent to dig coal.

Chapter 279 Disappearance 2
Jared had no choice but to sit on the chair, repeatedly hanging up and redialing. For a full half-hour, the call still prompted that the phone was powered off.Jared felt more and more that something was wrong... Logically, Nora had gone out to set up a scam with Roman, and they were indoors, not outdoors, so charging her phone should have been convenient.Moreover, he had reminded her earlier to keep in contact at all times, so that if anything unexpected happened, he could go to her rescue.Therefore, she shouldn’t have turned off her phone. What on earth was going on?At the thought, he couldn’t help but sit up straight, his expression turning serious as he muttered to himself: This isn’t right...The Mill matriarch glanced at him and snorted: Quit putting on an act for me.
