Chapter 911 Someone Is Getting in the Way

“Double compensation? Ha!” Sonia was so angered by such an excuse that she laughed instead.

“They sold our stuff to someone else without our permission and only told us about it after the fact. Clearly, they had gone over our heads. If we couldn’t get the spare parts on time, some machines wouldn’t be able to be used in the processing, and all the progress would have to be halted for the time being. Even if they pay us double compensation, it won’t be enough to cover the costs incurred by the shutdown!”

Her assistant lowered her head.

“That’s right. We talked to the collaborating manufacturer and asked them to intercept our parts, but they refused to do so, saying that it was unreasonable to intercept the goods after they’d been shipped out.”

“Were they being reasonable?” Sonia was frothing at the mouth. “If they were being reasonable, they wouldn’t have breached the contract and sold our stuff to someone else. I’m gonna hold them accountable for this!” she said while clenching her fists in anger. “Also, have you found out which company it was that bought our parts before we did?”

There were only a few enterprises in Seafield that were engaged in heavy industry, but she felt that none of these enterprises was the culprit behind this. Paradigm Co. was ranked bottom among these enterprises, after all, so these enterprises had no reason to snatch things from her, not to mention that these enterprises bore no grudge against her.

Furthermore, everyone in the country knew that she was Toby’s spouse, so there was no way these enterprises were unaware of it. Therefore, they would only make concessions to her out of courtesy to show Toby respect instead of offending her. So, who is it that’s targeting me? That’s right—they’re targeting me!

Again, everyone in the country knew that she and Toby were a couple, so no one would snatch things from her for Toby’s sake. The owner of the collaborating manufacturer wouldn’t sell her stuff to someone else either, for he was afraid of offending Toby, who was backing her up.

Secondly, Connor was a citizen of Westsanshire, which meant that he wasn’t a local to the citizens of Seafield, right? However, although Connor had some standing in Seafield, his standing wouldn’t be comparable to Toby’s. Even so, the collaborating manufacturer’s owner dared to ignore Toby and did things for Connor. So, her second conjecture just now was probably correct—Connor had gotten something on
