Lazily Yours.

"You want to what?"

"Cut ties with Lee and Li Corps." Gabi calmly took a sip at her tea.

"Why?" Her cousin Earl Ren asked. He used the napkin to wipe the edge of his mouth after accidentally spilling out the tea that he drank when he heard her words. "We invested hundreds of millions in this company."

"Why do you want us to sell the shares?" Grandfather Ren calmly asked. "There should be a reason, right?"

"Lee and Li's materials for the project are substandard. It would cause an accident, eventually. And we already know what is going to happen, right?"

"You — "For the second time, Earl almost spit the tea from his mouth. "What are you talking about? I made my research about them. They win the bidding because they are capable. I was also the one who suggested grandfather that we invested in this project."

"The research was on the past, Brother Earl. I am talking about the state of their projects now. You can check it out. However, you might not have a long time to do it. Some companies have noticed this problem."

Her grandfather and cousin look at each other. "But we didn't hear any news about this."

"They are trying to hide it," Gabi said. "And paid off the people who tried to complain. Obviously, someone is supporting them behind the scenes too."

"A politician."

"Yes." Gabi smiled. After last night, Gabi managed to come up with a few big issues that affected the business world. One of which is an upcoming earthquake that killed hundreds of people. One company affected by this earthquake is the Lee and Li Corp.

This was because a building that was manufactured by the company collapsed, killing hundreds of people and injuring a few hundred more. Various companies used the building, and the Earthquake happened during working hours. Because the materials used were not the standard ones, a lot of life ended that day. The accident only turned more chaotic when they realized the materials used to build the building are all substandard.

Lawsuits started.

And the company ended up filing for bankruptcy.

"Please take a look." Gabi pushed the tablet towards her cousin. "I did some research about the matter. Some people tried to cover up the news but in this day and age, it is already very difficult to do that. Some people even created groups just for this."

"This — " Even her grandfather looked astounded.

"Cousin, you might not know this but grandfather is… close to the chairman of Lee and Li."

"Hmmm." Gabi didn't know this. If that is the case then, it seems that this is more complicated than she originally thought. Since her grandfather is acquainted with the chairman, then withdrawing their support without ruining this friendship is impossible. "There is a possibility that the chairman doesn't know about this matter."

"So you are saying that someone — "

"Yep, corruption." Gabi smiled. At least her cousin is listening. Right now, Lee and Li are some of the biggest corporations in the world.

"We will investigate this matter." Her grandfather's words sent relief inside her.

"Thank you for listening to me. I will send you a copy of that document. However, you might not have a lot of time to do it as the government would also start their investigations soon."

"How did you know this?"

She only smiled at her cousin's question. Naturally, this was because she would tell Aden about this information tonight. And Archy would surely do something about this.

"Earl, go and call Mr. Kwang. Tell him that we need some information about this issue. If he could finish it in two days, then that would be good."

"Yes, grandfather. Cousin, please excuse me." Earl said before exiting the private room that they were in.

"You think he believed me?" Gabi couldn't help but asked her grandfather.

"Yes."

Gabi nodded. "How about you, grandfather?"

The old man pursed his lips. "This information could easily change the status of this company. As a grandfather, I believe the words of my granddaughter. However, as a businessman, I need more than this to believe your words."

Gabi smiled. As expected of her grandfather. He was a smart man. "I understand."

"Still, I am happy that you invited me to dinner along with your cousin. Earl had been looking forward to this meeting."

"When you told me that you wanted to work behind the scenes, I didn't expect you to do something like this." Her grandfather smiled. "I am proud of you."

"…" Gabi stared at the old man. "Grandfather, I haven't done anything yet. Please don't say anything like that." It is honestly making her awkward. Gabi isn't so good when it comes to emotional stuff like this.

Seeing her reaction, the old man chuckled. "Ah, since you are working for me now then… let me asked you this. There is upcoming bidding for another one of the government projects that would start next year. It is for an Arena. What are your thoughts about this?"

"Arena?"

"Yes, a smaller one."

Gabi turned silent as she tried to recall the things in the past life. "Is this the one in Southern Region?"

"You know about it?"

"I've heard rumors."

"Then? What do you think?"

"Don't bid."

"Hm?"

"Don't join the bidding."

"Why? This project is excellent to start the year."

"It is… but the politics in the south is not good. The project might stop at any time. That means, no cash flow despite paying all your workers." Of course, there was another reason why she didn't want Ren Aesthetics to join this bidding. It was because… she wanted the Sealey Family to win this time. After all, the higher you climb, the harder you fall.

"Moreover, this area is not an excellent investment. I am sure that Cousin Earl already did his research and is aware of the area surrounding the Arena. The government is trying to hide it from the international investors but this place is full of thugs and we are all aware of that. As I said, because the politics isn't good, this area isn't properly managed."
