?Chapter 1358:
Kohen questioned, “What made you assist Cedric with the construction project back then?”
Charles joined in, “That’s right! Now, everyone’s calling their building the most breathtakingndmark in Oiscoll!”
Duran added with a smirk, “Niks, you really screwed this one up.”
Niks seethed with anger. “Now you all have opinions? When Cedric asked me for people and materials, you said I could agree and it didn’t matter. You even rmended giving him extra resources, believing that with McCoy Group’s monopoly in Oiscoll, he’d never aplish anything. But now, he’s out there in front of the media, humiliating McCoy Group, and I can’t even look Dad in the eye!”
A heavy silence fell over the group.
Only Damon remarked casually, “It’s not just that you can’tpete with Dani. You can’t even handle Cedric. Have you realized something? When Dani was around, Cedric seemed to fade into the background. But once she was gone, his true potential emerged. Now, people are saying the McCoy family has raised a bunch of useless heirs and should hand over thepany to Cedric before Dani’s new venture bes the world’s most sessfulpany, bringing even more disgrace.”
Niks clenched his teeth. “Damon, whose side are you on? Even if Dani is your idol, you can’t be this one-sided! We’re your brothers!”
Damon chuckled. “Aren’t I just telling it like it is? Plus, Cedric’s my brother too.” In that sense, Dani was also family to him. The thought pleased him immensely.
Niks closed his eyes, asking, “So, what do we do now?”
Damon continued, “I suggest you hold off on making any moves. Cedric’s ruthless. He made it clear that if I didn’t provide the materials, he’d go straight to Dad. And I had no choice but toply.”
Kohen muttered, “What can we do? I think Dad’s taken quite a liking to Cedric. He’s even considering handing McCoy Group over to him.”
Charles added, “At the banquet yesterday, someoneplimented Cedric. Dad actually smiled with approval. Someone even mentioned that Cedric’s methods resemble his own, and he agreed!”
Niks felt the weight of the threat and responded, “We need toe up with a n!”
Kohen proposed, “We need to keep Dani froming back. If they team up, we won’t stand a chance!”
Damon quickly inquired, “What’s your n?”
“Nothing that would hurt your idol,” Niks said with narrowed eyes. “Just manipting the entry information to keep Dani out for a while.”
Hamilton stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, staring at the building across the street, a smile ying on his lips. “It brings back memories of my own past.” The secretary nodded in agreement. “Cedric’s truly impressive. I heard several more partners switched sides today.”
Hamilton nodded, puffing on his cigar. “Any updates from Alexander?”
The secretary answered, “Alexander’s been sent to Elite Lux to locate Dani. Once our people get a photo, they’ll send it right over.”
Hamilton nodded, his admiration for Cedric evident. He turned to his secretary. “What do you think of the name Cedric McCoy?”
The secretary smiled. “It definitely sounds like the name of a McCoy heir.”
