Domineering, arrogant, and blatant cruelty.
That was Pinnacle Group’s style.
Lyndsay and the others knew just how powerful the force supporting Pinnacle Group was, so they did not refrain
from making demands.
They had never been afraid of anyone because of that knowledge.
In fact, the entire southern region would know about Lyndsay if Pinnacle Group’s motto wasn’t to stay in the dark
and to control everything from behind the scenes.
Zoey was taken aback by the woman’s direct and domineering words.
They’re going to snatch it away just like that? And she’s daring enough to command me without a hint of shame!
They have no right to do such shitty things.
She had been tempted to give the project up when she learned that Pinnacle Group was after it.
However, that option had become one she would never opt for when she laid eyes on Lyndsay.

“Sorry, but you are not my boss. You don’t have the authority to command me to do anything. Moreover, our
company has already gotten the project. You guys can’t snatch it away even if you want to!” scoffed Zoey.
“And who told you that you already have the project?” Lyndsay asked cruelly.
“Our client, of course. We’ve already met and discussed everything. The project belongs to Oriental Star Group, and
you guys are too late. Please leave.”
Zoey had just discussed the terms with the client – she had even paid the deposit.
It was then that Lyndsay let out a small smile.
“Oh, the project belongs to you? Have you signed the contract then?”
“I…” blurted Zoey, who was somewhat stunned. She later added, “Regardless, I have already paid the deposit. If
the client goes back on his word, he will have to pay for the legal damages.”
Zoey held her head high as she glared at Lyndsay.
The former suddenly received a call at that moment – it was from the client.
The client was willing to pay three times the legal damage to terminate their collaboration with Morris Group.
“Feel free to continue competing for the project, though. At first, there weren’t any viable competitors against
Morris Group, but one showed up recently,” informed the other party via the phone.
The project was more scientific in nature, so Pinnacle Group wasn’t exactly equipped to be too involved.
Getting the other party to cancel the collaboration was the most Pinnacle Group could do.
As a result, Zoey was in fair competition against Tyrone’s company.
“So? Are you still certain that the project is yours?”
Lyndsay crossed her arms and asked arrogantly.
“You…” growled Zoey. She was fuming at that moment.
She had known Pinnacle Group to be powerful, but she hadn’t expected them to have such a strong influence. It
was strong enough to get the client to breach the contract. They did all that just to get to us.
However, the more unreasonable Pinnacle Group was, the more Zoey wanted to fight.
She wanted to get back at her competitor if nothing else.

“We’ve investigated you, Ms. Zoey Lopez. Oriental Star Group won’t even make it to our radar if it doesn’t have
Morris Group backing it up. As far as we are concerned, Oriental Star Group is nothing but a powerless maggot,”
said a representative of Pinnacle Group.
Everyone else chuckled tauntingly.
Lyndsay grinned and added, “It’s even less of a deal when we don’t even give a shit about Morris Group. Just hand
the project over without making a fuss, Zoey. There’s actually something in it for you if you do so. Moreover, going
against us will only destroy you. It might even get you killed.”
“Are you threatening me?” Zoey questioned sharply, her expression turning grave.
Lyndsay feigned innocence and claimed, “How could that possibly be a threat? I am simply… giving you some
suggestions as your BFF. You’ll get something great out of it.”
“My BFF? I don’t have friends like you! Don’t bother putting up an act in front of me,” Zoey gritted out.
“Haha, you just wait and see then. Not only will this project be ours, but your company will also soon belong to us,”
announced Lyndsay before she laughed aloud.
Pinnacle Group was already planning on acquiring a few sizable enterprises, and both Oriental Star Group and
Morris Group were already on their list.
“Oh my, how arrogant of you.”
