?Chapter 1357:


    Carol stepped forward and asked, “What did she say?”


    Cedric answered, “Elite Lux is dealing with some problems, so she’ll be back a few dayster. For now, let’s stay focused on our work.”


    Carol observed Cedric as he donned a hard hat and made his way upstairs.


    The foundation of the building was in ce. Thanks to Cedric’s brilliant design drafts, the workers pushed themselves tirelessly day and night for two weeks, bringing it close topletion.


    Carol was taken aback. “You said you had a background in construction, and I didn’t believe you. Now I have to admit it. But how did you manage to gather so many people and materials?”


    Cedric sipped his water and smiled slyly. “I told Niks that if he didn’t provide the manpower and materials, I’d go straight to Hamilton. Fear gripped him, and without hesitation, he supplied everything needed.”


    Carol was left stunned. “It was really that simple?”


    Cedric nodded. “Exactly that easy.”


    Carol inquired, “If he hadn’tplied, would you have truly gone to Hamilton?”


    Cedric shook his head. “Not at all.”


    He gathered the details of thepanies Dani had been negotiating with. “Hello, this is Cedric. Yes, I’m Dani’s husband. She’s tied up for the next few days, so I’ll be overseeing everything in her absence.”


    Carol watched as Cedric maintained hisposed, steady demeanor. It was a stark contrast to the gentle,posed, and unassuming man she had seen when Dani was around.


    In that instant, Carol saw Cedric not as a mild-mannered man but as a shrewd, calcting businessman, resolute in his quest to achieve his goals, no matter the cost. It dawned on Carol that, in many ways, Cedric and Dani were, without a doubt, a perfect pair.


    In a matter of days, Cedric had sealed several business deals, many withpanies that had shed with the McCoy family before and were teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. Thesepanies had nothing left to lose and weren’t afraid of the McCoy family.


    Standing before the camera, Cedric, donned in a sharp suit, smiled with assurance. “I’ve never been one to believe that monopolies are beneficial. We promote diversity and healthypetition. We aspire to see more remarkablepanies rise to industry leadership. We are partners, never overlords. This is our entrepreneurial ethos. I know we are new on the scene, and trust is something that takes time. But that’s perfectly fine. I’m giving everyone the time they need to watch us, to understand and ept what we stand for. One day, people will realize that ourpany is built on principles of fairness, justice, and transparency—practices that benefit everyone. And we wee the opportunity for you to choose us in the future!”

    Cedric’s words were nothing short of electrifying.


    At longst, the McCoy family’s stronghold over Oiscoll’s monopoly had been shattered. Dani’s newpany, standing independent of the global behemoth Elite Lux, had used its sharp business acumen to dismantle the McCoy family’s entrenched monopoly.


    The entire industry buzzed with excitement, unable to contain its anticipation.


    Niks ground his teeth in frustration. “I never imagined Cedric could be this powerful!”
