Pedro was thrilled by Beatrice’s flattery.

He pulled her tightly into his arms and burst out laughing. “Well said! Who does he think he is? Once he leaves the Everett family, he’s nothing! A discarded outcast kicked out by his own family actually dares to release some dramatic statement about cutting ties. What a joke!”
Just imagining Mason losing all his resources and struggling everywhere outside made Pedro feel wave after wave of satisfaction.
For years, he had lived under Mason’s shadow. People inside and outside the family constantly compared them, and he was always labeled as the inferior one. But now everything had changed.
I’m the one controlling Everett Group now, and Mason’s just a homeless piece of trash!
Of course, Beatrice knew Mason wasn’t an ordinary man. But in her opinion, without Everett Group backing him and without the Everett family’s connections and wealth, Mason’s life would definitely become difficult.
She had once tried to cling to Mason herself, only to be coldly rejected by him. So now, seeing him supposedly fall from power filled her with satisfaction.
“Exactly,” Beatrice sneered. “He’s probably still trapped in his own fantasy world, thinking he can just release a statement and walk away to start over like nothing happened.”
Pedro picked up his phone and scrolled through it, his smile becoming even more arrogant. “Didn’t he say he wanted to cut ties? Perfect timing. I was just wondering how to completely remove all his influence from Everett Group. Now he’s helping me by giving me the perfect excuse!
“Just wait and see.” Pedro’s eyes turned cold, full of confidence. “Maybe it won’t be long before he comes crawling back to Grandma and begs us for help!”
However, before Pedro and Beatrice could continue fantasizing about their bright future, someone suddenly knocked hard on the office door.
“Come in!” Pedro shouted impatiently, annoyed that his triumphant mood had been interrupted.
The door immediately swung open. His assistant rushed in frantically, tightly gripping a constantly vibrating phone. He was breathing so hard he could barely speak. “Mr. Everett, this is bad!”
Pedro’s expression darkened. “Why are you panicking like this? What happened?”
The assistant gasped for breath and quickly turned the phone screen toward him. “It’s about our business partners. Right after Mason-right after Mr. Mason released his statement, the company received termination requests from several major project partners within just half an hour! And their attitude is extremely firm!”
“Termination?” Pedro snatched the phone over, frowning deeply

The assistant’s voice trembled anxiously. “They said they originally wared w Mr. Mason’s reputation and personal abilines. The contractieven included projects had to be personally led by him. Bet now that Mr. Mavis is Group, they believe the current management team is no longer quaded to work demanding that the contract termination process began immed
The assistant’s words instantly ruined Pedro’s mood.
The pride on his face vanished and was replaced with gloom.

Those companies were some of Everett Group’s most important partners in recent years. The proje involved enormous amounts of money. If those contracts were terminated, it wouldn’t only ca financial losses, but also seriously damage Everett Group’s reputation in the industry
“I understand” Pedro tossed the phone back to the assistant and waved his hand while pretending to stay calm. “Go out first. I’ll handle this myself”
The assistant quickly retreated and carefully shut the office door behind him.
The room instantly fell into dead silence.
