All Too Late

Chapter 495 Is It Done

Kathleen had never taken Adina seriously, although she was royalty as there were many members of the royal family. One might be at the height of their powers now, but that would change tomorrow.

The royal family was cruel and merciless. Charles was already on the move and had targeted numerous of Adina’s businesses. She would find her power slipping through her fingers like sand if she couldn’t hold onto her empire. Hence, she had come to Jadeborough and wanted a slice of the pie to prove herself.

Of course, Kathleen wouldn’t let her have her way. Adina and Lauren appeared to be in cahoots, and it was all the more reason for Kathleen to ruin her grand plans.

This was Jadeborough! Adina and Lauren decided to meet at a clubhouse, and Lauren said without preamble, "This is important, so just give it to me straight—what in the world were you thinking?"

Adina laughed. "I wanted my piece of the self-driving technology pie."

"It’s oversaturated," Lauren observed.

“I’ll help you get rid of Samuel in exchange for Macari Group’s businesses," Adina proposed with a half-smile.

"You want to be on the same level as me?" Lauren said coldly.

Adina smirked.

"Why not? You’re nothing without me, Lauren."

Lauren was silent. "Let’s just work together without stepping on each other’s toes. Jadeborough—no, the entire Chanaea will be ours in the future. Sounds good?"

Adina drawled. Lauren bit on her lower lip in contemplation. She really needed her help now. "When are the stocks arriving? I’m running out of time."

Lauren was desperate.

"It’s already at the port and will be transported to your warehouse once the contract is signed," Adina replied with a crooked smile.

"All right."

Lauren had no choice but to agree. Adina pulled out the contract, and Lauren was about to sign it when Adina’s phone suddenly rang. She answered it, and a panicked expression came over her face.

"What? Got it. I’ll be right over."

Then, she hung up. Lauren frowned.

"What’s wrong?"

"Nothing, just sign it."
