Chapter 435 Was that it


    Jack fell silent for a brief moment before saying that he''d look into it for me. "Don''t worry about what''s going on overseas. I''ll send someone to investigate it. Focus on handling the issues revolving around your studio and Green Group. Then, everything will be fine." I nodded in response. What he said was true. However, would the mastermind behind all of this hocus-pocus let me resolve the issue that easily?


    I didn''t go to the hospital. Instead, I went back to mypany. A bleak silence enshrouded the office, and everyone''s morale seemed to be low.


    Crystal immediately walked toward me once she saw that I was back. "Why did youe here directly? Don''t you have to do some check-ups at the hospital?" I shook my head. "Tell me about the situation."


    Crystal gathered everyone in the conference room and gave them a brief rundown of the situation. Actually, it was pretty straightforward. Leonard had gone out of his way and sought out anotherpany to coborate with my studio.


    Just as the project was nearingpletion, they found all sorts of loopholes in the contract and demanded my studio forpensation. Aside from paying the coboratingpany, I also had to pay Harmon Group thepensation.


    A lot of the contents were unreasonable, but it would take a year to deal with thewsuit, at the very least.


    "I consulted thewyer. He said we should consider ourselves lucky if it only drags on for a year. If we have to deal with multiplewsuits at the same time, it might take much longer than that. By then, our circting capital would be frozen, and we wouldn''t be able to do anything. I''m sorry, Eva. I messed up." Crystal said tearfully, even her voice bing a little choked up.


    Theld her shoulder and asked, "What are you talking about? This isn''t your fault. If anything, Leonard is to be med here."


    The feud between me and Leonard got so big that everyone knew about it. My colleagues were also aware of it. It was just that my studio was much more insignificantpared to him.


    If it weren''t because my friends were standing behind me, Leonard would probably have dragged me back to his side and forced me to remarry him.


    Jack sat next to me and read the contents of the contract at his pace. He put the document down several minutester. "Ask your coboratingpany to send their representative here. It''s better to settle this issue in person."


    Crystal''s eyes widened as she looked at me. Meanwhile, I nodded in response. "Do as he said."


    Not long after, a representative from thepany came over to my studio. Initially, he was acting cockily and aloof. However, he immediately froze when he saw Jack


    "What are you doing here, Mr. McLennan? Are you here to discuss a coboration with them?"


    "I''m here to handle the coboration between yourpany and Ms. Green''s studio. My legal team is here as well." As a matter of fact, Jack studied the contract a long time ago, and there were a lot of areas that were worth discussing.


    The opposing party might intend to file awsuit, but that didn''t mean they''d definitely make it to court.


    I took a deep breath and forced a professional smile on my face. "I''ve read the contents of our contract, and most of it was verbal agreements. There were plenty of witnesses there back then. Yourpany had a private coboration with Harmon Group, but this was something we didn''t know beforehand. So, we''re not going to bear the loss on their part."


    This was something I had thought through when I was on my way here. If Leonard wanted to drag me down, he''d have to establish some sort of connection between my studio and Harmon Group.


    All I had to do was draw a clear line, and the rest would fall into ce.


    The person raised an eyebrow. "I think you''re aware that Mr. Harmon isn''t someone I can afford to trifle with, Ms. Green."


    "Neither am I." Jack tilted his body slightly and leaned on his chair. "I have Eva''s back. Are you sure you want to go up against her?"


    I gawked at Jack, and so was the opposing party''s representative. Here I was, thinking he had some sort of brilliant moves. After all, he got his legal team here. Was that it, though?


    I gave Jack''swyer a troubled look, who responded with a wry smile. Then, he proceeded to exin a lot of legal implications to the opposing party''s representative.Copyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.


    Just as I hadn''t the foggiest idea what thewyer was talking about, he chuckled and added, "After all, yourpany''s going to have coborations with the McLennon family. If you ask me, I think you should make concessions now."
