Chapter 945 After leaving the Genge residence, Karter dialed Damon's number.
"Mr. Sumner, Tom has been stringingalong. It seems like he's not planning to go after the Sumner Group in the short term," Karter reported.
Damon's tone was indifferent as he replied, "Got it. Just keep in touch with him for now-apply spressure." "Got it. But what about my 'mistress'? If I keep seeing her so often, my wife is bound to find out. Even if I had a hundred mouths, I couldn't explain it," Karter said hesitantly.
After a brief silence, Damon said, "You've been wanting to land the Zigler Group's project, right? Tomorrow, I'll arrange a meeting with Mr. Zigler. Whether you get the project or not depends on you." Upon hearing this, Karter instantly felt lighter. His back stopped aching, his legs no longer hurt, and he set aside his worries about his wife finding out.

Damon hung up without another word.
Karter didn't care. As long as he could benefit from Damon, that was all that mattered.
In Charlotte's living room...
Brandon sat across from her with an icy expression.
"Charlotte, you've really lost your mind. Do you know Tom is targeting the Sumner Group and Prospectus Technology right now? And here you are, in cahoots with him. Uncle Damon won't let you off the hook for this," he said sharply.
Charlotte sneered. "I'm doing this because Uncle Damon forcedinto it. If he had helped me, I wouldn't need to cooperate with the Genge Group. He doesn't want to help, but should I let my company go under just for the sake of family?" "I think you're rushing into this project. Given your company's current capacity, you'll be lucky if it doesn't end in bankruptcy," Brandon warned.
Charlotte's company had originally been a branch of the Sumner Group but was handed over to her after Richard's decision.
Through her efforts, she had transformed it from a loss into a profitable business. If she stayed on her current trajectory, her company would undoubtedly flourish in the future.
"I just don't understand why you're in such a hurry. If you take your time, in two or three years, your company will grow. Why risk everything on this project? If you fail, all the effort you've put in over the years will go to waste," Brandon stressed, Charlotte smiled mockingly.

Charlotte was utterly disappointed with the Sumners. She wouldn't ask Damon for help again. She would Carve het wel again carve her own path and prove that En.
she could succeed without relying on anyone. Seeing that Charlotte wouldn't listen, Brandon gave up trying to persuade her. He stood up.
"It's your choice, but you'd better think carefully. Can you handle the consequences?" he asked pointedly. Richard had only given Charlotte a small subsidiary company. If it went bankrupt, she would have nothing. "If you won't help me, then don't tellwhat to do," she shot back.
Brandon sighed and turned to leave. Persuading Charlotte seemed futile. He'd have to talk to Damon again.
