Hope It's Not Too Late to Love novel Chapter 256

Chapter 258

Hanson gave it a deep thought before he finally answered, "We should be discreet for now."

"Understood. I will make the arrangements."

Just as Larry was about to end the call, Hanson added, "Make arrangements for the Jones Enterprise as well."

"Jones Enterprise? Which Jones are you referring to?" Larry asked. Although the company had dealt with many companies with similar names, he knew that Hanson's company had not cooperated with any company with that name as of late.

Hanson gritted his teeth and recited with deep emotions, "Dylan Jones."

He wanted that man to pay the price of framing the love of his life.

After thinking briefly about the name, Larry determined that the company had no dealings with someone by the name of Dylan Jones. My condolences to you for offending the president, he thought to himself.

After all, the days of that man would be numbered now. "Understood. I will make the arrangements, President Luke," he answered. With how his president had given such orders to him, Larry assumed that it was to make arrangements to make the Jones Enterprise bankrupt since that was how he had handled all of his president's previous orders.

Contrary to Larry's assumption, Hanson continued, "No need to rush. You can take your time." The tone in his voice grew cold and gradually filled with terror.

Larry shivered upon his president's words as he knew that his president wanted a slow death for Jones Enterprise. Compared to directly causing a company to bankrupt, the method of boiling frog was much crueler as it would torture the recipient's mental state before it was finally dealt the finishing blow at the most unexpected moment.

However, Larry sneered as well. "I know what to do."

After his call with the president, he investigated just who Dylan Jones was and was surprised with what he found. No wonder the president is so furious, he thought after he found out that Dylan Jones had been Vania's fiance. Oh wait, he later became Melanie's fiance. This man had literally made Hanson a cuckold, which led to Larry saying his condolence once more to the man known as Dylan Jones.

...

Meanwhile, over at the president's office of Jones Enterprise.

"President, Vice President, there's bad news. Our project in the East River has suddenly been stopped and we can't stop the workers from leaving. There's only one more month until the deadline. What should we do?"

Coincidentally, Dylan was in his father's office as well. He went pale as soon as he heard the news and was about to ask further before someone else came in with another urgent report. "Vice President, we lost the new park project."

With how high Jones Enterprise had bid for the project of building a new park from scratch, any company that exceeded their bid would be doing the project at a loss. They couldn't fathom just who would want to end up in a net loss after months of working on this project. After all, if the project was not finished on time, the company responsible for the project would lose the trust of other businesses and would have a difficult future ahead, as they would have a hard time accepting new projects.

Instantly, Dylan stood up and pointed his finger at the messenger as he was about to question the man about the company that outbid them when another one of their employees came in. Both Dylan's and his father's expressions changed once more as they knew the employee had come with bad news, judging from how they had rushed into the office.

This time, Daniel stood up as well. With a frown, he asked anxiously, "Hurry up and tell me. What happened?"

The employee that rushed in hung his head low as he feared meeting his president's eyes while giving his report. "Zimmer Enterprise has been divested."

"Huh?" Daniel exclaimed and fell on his chair. Zimmer Enterprise had always been a strategic partner of Jones Enterprise with both corporations having an integral connection since Zimmer Enterprise had always been their strategic partner.
