?Chapter 1484:


    Choosing not to waste any more time on Yvonne, Harlee gestured to Brenton, indicating it was time to address Yvonne’s use of connections.


    Acknowledging her cue, Brenton called his assistant withposed assurance, saying, “Start preparing to make Hampton Real Estate Group go bankrupt.”


    Ryder was shocked, unprepared for Brenton’s blunt announcement of Hampton Real Estate Group’s impending bankruptcy.


    “Mr. Sanderson, please listen. That was all Yvonne’s doing. It has nothing to do with…”


    The surrounding crowd fell silent, not daring to make any sound. Brenton was direct and upromising. Hampton Real Estate Group, a significant yer in Baythorn’s real estate market, was now on the brink by hismand, with no chance to argue.


    Despite Ryder’s repeated pleas, Brenton remained unmoved. A short whileter, Brenton’s assistant confirmed over the phone, “Mr. Sanderson, everything is set on my side. Hampton Real Estate Group could go bankrupt at any moment.”


    Brenton allowed himself a slight, sarcastic smile, a light casting his features in a regal yet distant glow. Gazing at Ryder, he said, word by word, “I’ll offer you one final opportunity. Exin how you managed to get that woman into the crew.”


    Initially, Ryder might have chosen to hide the truth to protect his future, but now, faced with Brenton’s intimidating aura, he dared not fabricate anything.


    “I didn’t do…”


    “Much. I simply called the director and told him the previous second female lead wasn’t up to par and that I had a more suitable recement.”


    Your next story starts here g?lnσν???s?c?m


    Brenton’s tone was sharp, his expression dripping with sarcasm as he stared at the director.


    “And you agreed?”


    The director quickly waved his hand, hurriedly exining, “No, no, it was Ryder who imed that the top brass at the Sanderson Group had consented, so I…”


    Ryder interjected, “Yes, it was the Vice President from the Sanderson Group who facilitated the connection. I assumed it would be challenging, but he was on board immediately.”


    Hearing this, Yvonne’splexion grew even paler. The Vice President of the Sanderson Group had agreed so readily because he was also her sugar daddy.


    With the situation fully rified, Brenton then looked down and instructed his assistant, “Keep the investigation going and root out any corruption within the Sanderson Group.”


    Ryder exhaled deeply, relieved momentarily, believing Hampton Real Estate Group was out of danger. But Brenton’s next words shattered that belief.


    “Investigate Hampton Real Estate Group. Deal with any issues directly.”


    Ryder copsed on the spot. Hampton Real Estate Group was the result of years of hard work by both him and his wife. However, in his desire to im thergest share and limit his wife’s profits, he had secretly manipted several aspects of the business. If Hampton Real Estate Group were to be thoroughly investigated, his actions would be uncovered.


    Since the arrival of Brenton and the others, Yvonne had been in a daze, her mindpletely foggy. She stared in disbelief as Ryder fell, her eyes widening in shock. She was doomed. Brenton’s mere words had forced the director to kneel, and one of her sugar daddies, Ryder, to copse. Her fifteen million online fans stood no chance against their power.


    Yvonne realized only Harlee could save her now, as it seemed these powerful men all heeded Harlee. Despite her revulsion, she humbled herself before Harlee.


    With a forced smile, Yvonne rose and hurried toward Harlee. Harlee watched Yvonne approach, attempting to kneel and apologize, and a flicker of disdain danced across her eyes.


    Harlee found Yvonne’s actions utterly shameless and would not tolerate it.


    In a swift motion, before Yvonne could kneel, Harlee kicked her away. Yvonne’s body soared through the air and mmed onto the floor hard. The onlookers at the…
