Chapter 280 Brewing Confrontation
Carter Group enjoyed terrifying luck, managing to turn an emergency pivot into an era-defining triumph.
Even Professor Jeremy Perez from Oskary had failed to best them, getting caught red-handed attempting to hijack their system’s base code on stage.
The global livestream had broadcast every humiliating detail in crystal clarity.
Preston and his inner circle had watched the entire broadcast unfold.
Hearing the background, Preston’s brow furrowed even tighter.
“So you’re saying Raymond Sinclair’s granddaughter is the very girl the Carters cherish like their own child?
“And that’s why Carter Group is meddling in our operation?”
He found the situation exceptionally troublesome.
Carter Group was fundamentally different from ordinary corporate players.
They were a blue-blood corporate titan with core operations deeply rooted in high-tech manufacturing.
The successful rollout of the G-Series meant Carter Group had entered an exponential growth trajectory, a momentum that was practically impossible to suppress through conventional market attacks.
Because Carter Group engineered their proprietary architecture in-house, foreign sanctions and supply chain bottlenecks had negligible impact.
Furthermore, the G-Series breakthrough had caught the attention of federal authorities, with high-ranking inspectors already touring Carter facilities, virtually guaranteeing favorable industrial subsidies.
Most critically, Carter Group sat on immense cash reserves, and their successor, Eugene Carter, was remarkably composed, shrewd, and calculating; though he had only held the helm for a few years, industry leaders in Caporia spoke of him with unanimous respect.

anything about that prototype?
How many years has it been?! I’m paying a bunch of useless deadbeats to sit on their hands!”
Preston’s face darkened with venom.
They coveted the Sinclairs’ proprietary battery blueprints, yet Raymond guarded the pipeline with his life.
Being a seasoned engineer himself, Raymond had supervised every trial under his own nose, ensuring only he knew the exact formulas.
After that lab explosion, they had poached Sinclair veteran researchers to cripple the firm’s capacity and extract whatever data fragments they could.
Yet the core theoretical breakthrough resided solely in Raymond’s mind.
ing faced previous buyout attempts, Raymond had locked down all documentation, barring anyone
touching critical materials.
All these years, he conducted experiments in total isolation, refusing to let another soul near the core
