Chapter 1684:
After sinternal discussion, the Ford family agreed to head to Nelting that day.
An early departure would give them plenty of buffer tto handle any unexpected hurdles.
At dawn, Corrine made her way to the company.
Thanks to Zeke’s efforts, the Holland family villa was already back under her control. The next target was
Holland Group.
That particular acquisition had been on the Ford Group's agenda for a while but had stalled.
Breaking into the Pinetree City market had always been a nearly impossible feat for Lyhaton’s top families.
But since the partnership with the Cooper family in Pinetree City, things had started to shift.
With their help, Ford Group had secured eight valuable plots, a major push for Lyhaton’s commercial expansion.
Even so, it still fell short of what Corrine had envisioned.
The moment she stepped into the building, she gathered her team for a meeting.
Inside the conference room, they kicked things off with a status update on the Holland Group acquisition. Then,
Corrine handed out assignments. She eventually turned to Natasha and said, “If anything comes up while I'm
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgone, don’t hesitate to reach out.” Natasha nodded. “You don’t need to worry.”
If Natasha couldn’t keep the basics running in Corrine’s absence, then she wasn’t cut out to be a special
assistant.
After a pause, Natasha added, “Miss Holland, there’s something I'd like to discuss.”
At that, Corrine glanced up at her, eyes clear and sharp. “You want to suggest we pause our business push
against the Pinetree City families?”
“Yes.” Natasha kept her tone level, her lips pressed in thought as she assessed the situation. “Even though we
have the Cooper family taking the lead, the other families in Pinetree City have taken heavy hits, and it’s bad
business to back people into a corner. | think we should temporarily suspend the acquisition plans.”
The Holland Group acquisition had faced countless roadblocks—sabotage from the old Pinetree City families
determined to block Ford Group’s expansion and quietly snatch Holland Group for themselves. Back when
Corrine’s mother, Kiley, was involved, Holland Group had almost matched the current Cooper Group in influence.

“I get it,” Corrine replied. “I'll speak to Zeke and straighten it out.”
With a nod, Natasha said, “If that’s all, I'll take my leave.”
