Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2567

A few days later, news came from the industry that Grant Corporation and Yard Group had partnered up to bid for the land in North Courts.

Shannon looked at me admiringly when she learned the news. “You’re probably the first person to convince their ex-husband to partner up with their enemy.”

"It's just a matter of digging up the past for Theo. Whatever he decides is his business." I lowered my head and continued to process the documents. Even so, I could not help but smile.

He should be calling soon.

Just when I was thinking this, my phone started ringing.

I eyed the number. Sure enough, it was him.

I deliberately waited for a moment before answering the call. “Mr. Nibel, hello.”

“You’re the one who facilitated Grant Corporation’s partnership, no?” Nibel was blunt as he cut to the point straight away.

It just so happened that I also could save myself from beating about the bush with him. "Is my sincerity enough?"

Nibel's laughter sounded across the receiver. Shannon's attention was focused on what was happening on my side, and she narrowed her eyes at me.

"I've felt your sincerity, President Lane. I think our partnership will be a pleasant one."

"I hope nothing else will interfere with it," I said in an obscure manner, but Nibel was a smart man. He understood what I meant.

He laughed when he heard that and then answered, "Rest easy, President Lane. I never treat my partners poorly."

"Then I await your plans."

I hung up the call, and Shannon immediately dashed to me. "How did it go? Did he believe you?"

I nodded. "I think so."

"Yes! But Wanda, I still don't really get it. Why are you pretending to work with Nibel?" Shannon asked curiously.

Pursing my lips, I replied with a meaningful gaze, "If we really want to take down the Yards, the shortcut would be to work with powerful people. Of course, there’s also Grant Corporation."

"Didn't you join forces with the Wagners and the rest to defeat the Yards too?"
