Chapter 143 Tanum Corporation Is In Turmoil

I kept my cool and looked at Josh. “How has it been these past two days?”

“Hey, don’t even get me started. These guys are no pushovers. They look at every detail,

and I have worn out my mouth trying to explain that these are Matthew’s accounts. They

kept bugging me, saying they

only deal with Tanum Corporation!”

“You’ve worked hard, Mr. Josh,” I said, appearing to trust him. “Any ideas on how we can

make them see

reason?”

“Ms. Chloe, if you ask me, Matthew’s not a real man. He should accept the court’s

decision. What’s the point of all this?” Josh shook his head. “We should focus on our

negotiations with suppliers. You need a

plan because the project is about to start!”

“Yes, you’re right. In the worst–case scenario, we can subcontract the project on hand. It

might mean earning less, but it’s a safer bet,” I said, looking at him helplessly. “Do you

have any suitable candidates?”

Upon hearing my decision, Josh feigned regret. “Are you set on this?”

“What choice do I have? If Matthew keeps making trouble, we’ll play a game of cat and

mouse. I might

get hurt, but he knows something others don’t!” I smirked at Josh. In the end, good

triumphs over evil,

and I’m the sacrificial lamb.”

Josh’s expression froze before he asked, “So, what’s our next step?”

“We’ll take it one step at a time,” I replied.

Did he expect me to uncover the entire plan? How naive!

“I’ve not seen Mr. Ryan these past few days. Is he on a business trip?” He asked a

question that Melanie

was keen on finding out.

“He took a few days off to visit his hometown! He’s AWOL at the worst possible time!” I

grumbled. “In that

case, compile all those collection notices and give me a detailed report!”

Josh agreed and left.

Not long after, Benjamin knocked on the door, speaking quietly when he entered. “Chloe,

Mr. Josh was

the only one who went out for lunch. Everyone else seems normal. He’s back now. I have a

feeling…”

I raised an eyebrow and whispered a few words to him. Benjamin gave me a thumbs–up

and left my office.

Sure enough, Tanum Corporation was hit with another wave of collection notices from the

bank in the

1/2

chaotic situation.

Carol was getting anxious and asked me what to do. Everyone secretly considered

quitting.

I wanted to take a gamble. I had been waiting for news from ATL Empire in the back of my

mind.

However, Atlas phone had been turned off, and I knew I could learn nothing from Stella.

I reluctantly called Nick. To my dismay, his phone was also switched off.

It appeared that ATL Empire was about to vanish from Foswood, leaving me feeling like I

was in a dream. I felt a lot of pressure from the uncertainty

If ATL Empire changed hands, they would reorganize their headquarters in Foswood. In this

situation, high

-level executives were most likely to run into trouble.

As the saying goes, new ruler, new rules.

The new owner would bring in their trusted associates. Everything we had established

here could be overturned, and it would reshape the entire landscape.

I was terrified at the thought.

That must have been why Atlas told me he’d handle everything upon his return. He must

have foreseen

this crisis.

Still, I was betting on ATL Empire. If Nick and Atlas were at risk, I’d be obliterated. Tanum

Corporation

would be what broke me, and the trap I had set for Matthew would be my downfall.

I felt like I was standing on the edge of a cliff.

Unfortunately, I received a phone call that added to my anxiety.
