When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1119

Ashton knitted his brows, and his expression turned grim as he replied, “Got it. Schedule a meeting for me tomorrow. Get all the department heads to attend it.”

Once again, I recalled what Emery told me. I asked Stella, “Are these the existing projects in J City or the new ones in K City?”

The Fuller Corporation had a strong presence in J City, and the entire construction industry depended on them. Hence, it was unlikely for these companies to burn bridges with them so easily.

“The new projects, Mrs. Fuller,” Stella answered.

A line formed between my brows. It looks like Emery was right. Those people in K City have started making their moves now because they are jealous of Ashton.

Ashton took a glance at me and closed the file. He then turned to Stella and said, “You can leave now. I’ll call you when I need you.”

“All right.” Stella then walked out of his office.

Ashton immediately turned his attention to me the moment Stella shut the door. “Tell me what you know.”

“Hmm?” I froze for a bit and gave him a confused look.

Ashton kept mum for a moment and walked to his desk. “I’ve been managing this corporation for years. Do you really think I’m unaware of the concern Emery told you?”

After a brief pause, he started looking for some documents from a drawer under his desk. Then he walked up to me and tapped on the documents. “Construction and trading are the two major sources of income for the Fuller Corporation. Before shifting my focus to K City, I’ve established my connections here, so by right, everything’s good to go. Yet, take a look at all these documents. They all turned their backs on me. Even those who have yet to leave are merely staying temporarily because of the Moores. They might not end up signing the contract with us too.”

After going through all four documents, I realized that the sum involved in these projects was at least ten million. That was a lot of money.

Without connections and resources, a company could never run a business properly. This was exactly the problem Ashton experienced when he made a foray into K City.
