Not only had it attracted eager pursuit from the kingdom’s top social circles, even the military had given it full support, send large numbers of injured and disabled soldiers there for treatment and recovery.

Cosmos Group could have relied on that tiny bit of goodwill from back then, when they had made an exception and allowed Elizabeth to hitch a ride on a recycling ship, to become one of the farm’s closest partners.

At the very least, they would not have ended up in such an awkward position now.

h out? With what?” the group’s president rubbed his aching temples, his voice tired. “We don’t even dare to send people to arm privately to buy some produce under personal names using Cosmos Group’s identity. We’re afraid their system will flag us connect us to the decision to shut down the station, then label us as a ‘potentially unfriendly affiliated party. If that happens, get cooperation. We might not even be able to buy their products as individuals anymore.”

That was exactly what they feared the most.

The farm’s blacklist system, which looked simple and blunt but was actually efficient and strict, combined with Elizabeth’s clear- cut approach to loyalty and grudges, made them extremely cautious.

They did not even dare to publicly express goodwill or interest toward the farm, afraid that any move might backfire.

“But are we just going to sit here and watch?” someone said unwillingly. “Other shipping companies are making huge profits restoring routes. Families and businesses connected to the farm might gain long–term benefits. Are we, Cosmos Group, just going to be left out like this?”

The air was heavy with regret, anxiety, and a faint fear of unknown consequences.

They had once believed they understood the situation clearly and had made the most “correct” decision according to busin logic. They had not realized they were stepping into a pit of their own making.

Now, all they could do was watch as Planet A001 grew more prosperous by the day, as Tycoon Farm’s influence expanded lik snowball rolling downhill, and as other competitors did everything they could to build connections with the farm.

Meanwhile, Cosmos Group had been cut off by an invisible barrier because of that “decisive” choice. They did not even dare too close.

The older shareholder who had once raised objections sat quietly in the corner. He looked at the news reports showing the fa booming success, then at his colleagues in the room, all looking defeated, and felt a mix of emotions.

He remembered the weak warning he had given during that meeting, which had been ignored. He remembered how arrogance led them to dismiss human relationships, potential value, and long–term planning.

nately, there was no such thing as a second chance.

aps maintaining the current situation was already the best outcome they could hope for.

In contrast to the regret and caution filling Cosmos Group’s meeting room, the atmosphere at Seafarm Group headquarters on the other side of Centria Planet was even darker, almost desperate and restless.

If Cosmos Group had missed an opportunity and cut off their own future, then Seafarm Group had pushed itself to the edge of a cliff and was still sliding downward.

On Starnet, the hired online commentators and certain “partner” media outlets under Seafarm Group were still relentlessly spreading negative narratives about Tycoon Farm and Elizabeth.

From questioning product safety to accusing the farm of artificial scarcity and discriminatory practices to making malicious speculations about Elizabeth’s relationship with the Hewitts, all kinds of recycled claims and baseless rumors continued to circulate within certain circles.

However, the effect was minimal, and in some cases, it even backfired.
