Chapter 326
Nancy panicked and immediately defended herself, “No, Grandpa. That wasn’t what I’d meant. You’ve
misunderstood me. What I mean is, you don’t understand the actual situation.”
“From what I know, Lacey founded the Linton Group herself. She never used the Riverdale Hintons’ reputation.”
“Besides, as they were expelled from our family, they couldn’t use our family’s reputation.”
“Lacey worked hard and tirelessly to build up Linton Group. It’s incredibly important to her. I don’t think it’s a good
idea to take away her hard work without reason.”
Before Aaron could talk, his most beloved grandson Michael spoke up furiously, “Nancy, shut up! Don’t defend
yourself. You’re indeed questioning Grandpa’s decision.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“The Hinton family is this successful because your grandpa’s a wise leader. That proves his decisions were right, so
you don’t have the right to question him.”
“I think that you’re trying to sabotage us.”
Aaron couldn’t hide his approval and affection for Michael as his grandson’s words were what he wanted to say.
Nancy hurriedly explained, “No, I was just stating the facts.”
“Nonsense!” Michael huffed.
“Don’t tell me that you know more than Daniel’s father? Even his father wants Grandpa to merge both groups.
What right do you have to disagree?”
Nancy stared at Adam in disbelief.
How could he work with others to go against his own granddaughter? He’s a strange man.
Michael wouldn’t stop attacking Nancy, “Nancy, let’s not talk about Linton Group. Let me ask you. You used up a lot
of funds to get the tourist destination development project in Whiteridge. How is it going now?”
As he mentioned that, Nancy tensed up.
She took a deep breath and kept her reply vague. “We haven’t signed the contract yet.”
Michael uttered icily, “I know you haven’t signed the contract yet. I’m asking you about the progress.”
“You’ve spent so much to get that project. I believe you must at least know the person-in-charge of the project,
right? Can you contact him right now?”
Nancy grew nervous instantly.
She had talked to the project manager, Ben, and was about to sign the contract, but suddenly it changed hands.
She did not even know who the new person-in-charge was now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHence, she had to start all over again.
But how should she explain this to them?
Michael urged, “Nancy Hinton, please answer my question.”
Nancy had no choice but to tell the truth. “I’ve already gotten close to the person-in-charge of the project, Ben. We
had come out with the initial plans, but suddenly the project was handed to another person. I don’t know who the
current person-in-charge of the project is.”
Michael mocked, “That means you have to start all over again? The money you spent previously were all in vain?”
Although Nancy hated to admit it, that was the truth. She nodded reluctantly.
“You’re lying!” Michael suddenly exclaimed in anger. “If I didn’t learn the truth in advance, you might’ve fooled us
all!”
Nancy immediately refuted, “I didn’t fool you. I’m telling the truth!”
“Truth? But the version that I heard is totally different,” Michael claimed.
Aaron looked somber. “Michael, hurry. Tell us the version you heard.”
