The Stand-In Who Burned the Script novel Chapter 341

After a long detour, Liam took Grace back to the hospital.

She got out of the car, looking at the man inside with red, swollen eyes, and asked hoarsely, "Liam, you tried to talk me out of it, but what about you? Can you really let Vivian go?"

"..."

Watching the woman walk away, Liam chuckled in sheer frustration.

Playing the role of the caring friend was completely useless; all it did was leave him feeling suffocated and frustrated.

He ran his tongue over his teeth, his long fingers spinning the steering wheel as he drove off in another direction.

Sterling Enterprises.

Construction on the Hillside Project in the north had hit a roadblock, prompting an emergency meeting of all top executives at headquarters to brainstorm a solution.

Everyone threw in their two cents, but the final conclusion was virtually unanimous—

The bottleneck was the Granger family.

"Mr. Sterling, that's Granger territory after all. Should we..."

The executive gauged the CEO's expression and probed cautiously, "Should we bring them on board? It's the most permanent solution."

The Grangers and the Sterlings had always minded their own business. For some inexplicable reason, that old man was dead set on making things difficult for them this time.

Since the path was blocked, they had to find a way to clear it.

They couldn't just shelve the whole project, right?

Silas lounged at the head of the table, his legs crossed casually as he leisurely twirled a pen in his hand.

Logan couldn't quite read his intentions. The Lawson family had spearheaded this project, but now that they'd hit a snag, they had to rely on the Sterlings.

Honestly, it made him feel a bit guilty.

But dealing with Jonah...

He really couldn't outplay the man.

Were these two titans really going to go to war over a woman?

He rubbed his chin, coughing lightly. "If you ask me, why don't we look into exactly whose palms the Grangers have greased? Backing down isn't an option. Are you telling me we can't get anything done without the Grangers?"

Smack.
