However, upon reaching the entrance, she felt unwilling to let the entire morning pass without success.
Hence, she hid near the entrance and waited for Thomas Yale from the purchasing department to get off work.
Only around half-past twelve did the purchasing manager she was looking for exit the building.
Brittany rushed toward him like he was her last hope.
On the contrary, the man with the receding hairline turned and ran away upon seeing her, as though he had just seen a ghost.
“Please wait, Mr. Yale. I just have a question. Why did your company terminate the contract unilaterally? Should you not give me a satisfactory answer, I will sue you in court!” Brittany demanded aggressively when she successfully stopped him.
She vented all the grievance, unjust, and anger she had experienced that day on him.
“I can't believe you still have the nerve to question us, Ms. Xenos. The price of your greenhouse vegetables is much higher than the market price. You people are so corrupted. Go ahead and sue us if you have the means to do it!” Thomas replied while avoiding her gaze.
“We agreed on the price before you signed the contract, but now you're using it as an excuse. If you weren't satisfied, why did you sign it back then?”
Upon hearing that this was the reason, Brittany was furious.
Ours are organically-grown vegetables, so our price will certainly be higher than those vegetables grown with chemical fertilizers.
“Do you think we wanted to sign at that time? If it wasn't for the big shot supporting your family, do you think we would be so stupid as to sign at such a high price? In all honesty, we terminated the contract this time because your family crossed the wrong person. Coming to me is pointless. If you want to sue, you can go ahead. Now, excuse me.”
Although she had already thought of this possibility, she was still taken aback by the confirmation from Thomas.
“Mr. Yale, can you tell me who exactly is this big shot trying to blacklist my family's business?” Brittany asked with a hopeful look as she grabbed his hand.
“I'm sorry. I don't know who the person is either. We only know that the instructions to terminate the cooperation with Brittany's Greenhouse Produce came from Paradise Hotel's platinum members chat group. No one knows who on earth did it!” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
After saying that, Thomas stopped paying attention to her and turned to leave.
“The instructions came from Paradise Hotel's platinum members chat group?”
Brittany kept mumbling those words as she slumped to the ground.
She looked even more dejected than before.
Everyone in Dellmoor knew that one needed to own over ten million worth of assets to apply for the most common bronze membership in Paradise Hotel.
Silver members had more than a hundred million worth of assets, whereas gold members had more than a billion.
The assets of platinum members were as high as ten billion, and those of the highest-tier diamond members had reached a terrifying one hundred billion and above!
In other words, the person who blacklisted my family business this time is a big shot with assets worth over ten billion. No wonder almost all the companies, hotels, and factories in Dellmoor have terminated collaborations with us. Even in a first-tier city like Dellmoor, there are less than five big shots with assets worth more than ten billion. Apart from the four prominent families, only Craig, the Underground King of Dellmoor, and James “Moneybags” Smith can achieve that. Who would dare to defy the instructions of such a big shot? However, I don't understand why those big shots would blacklist insignificant people like us out of the blue?
In the end, she could only drag her despondent self home.
“Brittany, look who's here!”
