Chapter 153 The Company That Came Out of Nowhere

It never occurred to Leonardo that the Yorks of Dhord City would be this ambitious.

They wanted to gain full control over the Two Lakes area.

“I’ll leave it to you to get rid of Caspian,” Celestia said before leaving the club with Adam.

Once she was gone, The Reaper’s expression darkened. “What should we do now, Sir

Leon?”

Leonardo sighed before saying, “The Yorks of Dhord City have their hearts set on

expanding their influence. It’s impossible for us to distance ourselves from the situation.

We have to find a way to get rid of Caspian. If we don’t, the Yorks will come after us.

us.”

“Even Mr. Bassett couldn’t defeat Caspian. How can we get rid of him?” The Reaper asked

worriedly.

Tier–two experts like Adam were rare enough as it was. If he could not defeat Caspian, it

meant they needed to find an even more powerful person.

“Lately, Southlake Corporation has been on the rise, and Caspian’s wife has become the

CEO of that company. So, let’s target the company!” Leonardo decided after giving it some

thought.

He was already formulating the perfect plan…

A few days later, Southlake City was thrown into upheaval.

Glorious Group, a company as big as Southlake Corporation, had suddenly materialized.

Furthermore, its primary investor was a Tigran!

In terms of financial power, manpower, and resources, Glorious Group outperformed

Southlake Corporation. It immediately started working on two major property

developments.

Glorious Group even sent out invitations to many of the local companies in Southlake City.

The Archer family and the Hudson family both chose to collaborate with Glorious Group.

Some of Southlake Corporation’s old clients also chose to terminate their contracts and

work.

with Glorious Group instead.

Upon hearing that Glorious Group offered better salaries and benefits, many of Southlake

Corporation’s employees jumped over as well.

It all happened so suddenly that Willow was caught off–guard. She had only just started

managing Southlake Corporation and thought that York Group’s buyout would strengthen

the company.

She did not expect the sudden emergence of the Glorious Group.

“What’s going on? Why are so many people resigning out of the blue?” Willow asked the

human resource manager.

“The employees heard that Glorious Group offers a lot of employee benefits and would

even compensate any losses incurred if they resigned from their previous jobs. Unable to

resist the temptation, they chose to jump ship,” the manager reported helplessly.

He never would have thought that Southlake Corporation, the company everyone fought

to join, would one day face such a crisis.

“I see. You can get back to your work now,” Willow said.

Glorious Group was clearly going up against Southlake Corporation!

The suddenness of the crisis left Willow at a loss.

She had no choice but to try and discuss a possible strategy with Miranda.

“I’m aware of what’s happening, but I also can’t think of a good way to counter the

situation, Ms. Stewart,” Miranda said. Despite her years of experience as a

businesswoman, she did not have any means of dealing with this.

“Many companies have terminated their contracts with us. If this continues, Southlake

Corporation will fold!” Willow said anxiously.

No matter how established a company was, without any business partners, it would slowly

go bankrupt.

Willow had a thought. “I know! Let’s get the previous CEO to come forward. I’m sure he

can think of something!

Caspian’s old classmate seemed like a wealthy man. He would undoubtedly have a way to

overcome this crisis.

Miranda was a little speechless.

She had considered this option, but it was clear that Caspian was not good at managing a

company.

“That CEO is my husband’s old classmate. When I get home tonight, I’ll ask him if he can

get his classmate to come over,” Willow said.

That night, when Caspian got home, he saw Willow looking down and troubled.

“What’s the matter, Willow? You look upset. Did something happen?” Caspian asked,

concerned.

“The company’s run into some serious trouble,” Willow said worriedly. “Lately, a new

company popped up in Southlake City. It’s called Glorious Group. Not only is the company

expanding rapidly, but it’s even offering its employees a ton of benefits.

“Many of Southlake Corporation’s employees have resigned to join them. Even our clients

and business partners want to terminate their contracts with us. In a few days, I’m afraid

Southlake Corporation won’t even be able to operate anymore.”

“I didn’t know this was happening,” Caspian said in shock.

He had disregarded the business world altogether since he had been busy handling

matters with the investigation team.

“Can you ask your classmate to come back and come up with a strategy to help the

company overcome this crisis?” Willow voiced her request.

“He has already moved abroad, so he won’t be able to come back anytime soon. But don’t

worry. I can call him and ask him about it,” Caspian assured. “Do you have any information

regarding the head of Glorious Group:

It was just a company. Caspian thought he could definitely find a way to kick the company

out of Southlake City.

“I don’t know much. All I know is that his name is Greg Norris,” Willow answered while

shaking her head.

“I got it. Don’t worry. I’ll think of something,” Caspian firmly stated.

Even though Willow did not fully believe Caspian could turn things around, the

determination in his eyes made her choose to trust him.

Following that, Caspian called Sylvia.

“What do you need me to do, Caspian?” Sylvia asked. She knew he would only be calling

for urgent matters.

“Look into Glorious Group,” Caspian instructed.

“Got it, Caspian,” Sylvia replied.

Ten minutes later, Sylvia sent all the available information on Glorious Group to Caspian.

He was startled to find that the owner of Glorious Group was a Tigran. After recalling the

incident at the Embassy of Tigra, the situation dawned on him..

Tigra had sent someone to establish Glorious Group to tackle him.

They came prepared this time. As they dared not rely on military warfare to get back at

The information included an important piece of news–500 special forces soldiers from

Tigra were hiding inside Glorious Group.

They had concealed their true identities.

“Caspian, should we arrange for an elite team to come over from South Aridlands just in

case? “Sylvia asked concernedly.

Glorious Group was dead set on bringing chaos to Southlake City.

“That won’t be necessary. We have 30 special forces soldiers. That’s enough,” Caspian

said.

“But our enemy has over 500 highly skilled soldiers. We don’t have enough people on our

side,

“Sylvia said anxiously.

“Have you not experienced being outnumbered by your opponent before? Just do as I we

move a military unit over, it’s bound to alert the enemy!” Caspian said. His tone left no

room for discussion.

“Understood, Caspian. Let me know what you need me to do. I’ll be right there!” Sylvia

replied..

After ending the call, Caspian continued to ponder the situation. This crisis was a test for

both him and Willow.
