The Heiress Strikes Back

Chapter 416

416 Even Unluckier

June quickly turned on her phone. Xenon also came over and asked anxiously, “What happened?”

The woman on the other end of the phone said nervously, “I have just been informed that the houses we bought previously are done for. Apparently, the construction of the buildings is not up to standard and will be suspended indefinitely. That real estate company has also escaped, and all our money has been wasted!”

Upon hearing this, Xenon almost fainted. His eyes almost fell out of their sockets. He almost roared, “How is that possible! Has the work for the third phase been stopped? Just the cost of buying those houses... I’ll lose at least ten million just by doing this!”

Xenon really couldn’t understand. He had just adjusted his luck so that Sharon wouldn’t be able to suppress him, but then he was immediately given bad news.

The woman on the other end of the phone also sounded very anxious. “Xenon, what should we do! Tell me, now that our money’s all gone, this... is too passive! It’s hard to say when we can take it out. At that time, we only bought it after listening to you. This...”

“Did something go wrong? Let’s wait for more news,” June asked anxiously.

The other party replied agitatedly, “I’ve already said everything I should say and ask, but... I can’t even find them!”

Xenon blurted out, “Hurry up and find the police. Call the police immediately and ask them to monitor those people at all times to see where they have run to and where the funds for this batch of houses are! We have to make a comeback!”

As he spoke, Xenon continued, “We still have to urge the engineering team to continue construction. Otherwise, we’re finished!”

“Why would people who don’t have any construction fees work? I don’t think this is easy to handle. We have to find the people who escaped first.”

“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll look for it too and quickly settle this matter.”

After the call was hung up, June and Xenon’s expressions were terrible, especially Xenon. He quickly turned to look at the psychic and asked, “Master, didn’t you just perform a divination for me, adjust my frequency or something? Why did I encounter such a tricky matter now! If this can’t be resolved, I’m afraid my losses will exceed ten million! Hasn’t my luck been reversed? Why hasn’t my luck come yet!”

The witch was looking at Xenon with an evasive gaze and she couldn’t help but cough. “It takes time to adjust the momentum and whatnot. It’s impossible for there to be a reaction so quickly.”

June looked at the witch and asked, “Then can you use Tarot to see if there are any other unlucky things that will occur during this period of time...”

Just as he finished speaking, Xenon’s phone rang. It was actually a business partner of a small company under him.

Xenon quickly picked up the phone and greeted him with a smile. He said obsequiously, “You must be the second young master of the Korn family in Harbor City! Hello, hello! The person who came to my company to see our collaboration previously sent you the contract. You’ve signed it and replied to me, right?”

“Mr. Xenan.” The other party’s voice was abnormally cold, and from his tone, he did not take Xenon seriously. “I’ve seen the contract and have confirmed the details. Based on the current situation, you’re not our best partner, so the signing of the contract might have to be delayed.”

“Delay the signing of the contract?” Xenon almost fainted. He quickly stabilized his body and said anxiously, “Mr. Korn, you should be able to see our intentions. In addition, compared to many parties, we have a clear advantage. If you cooperate with our company, there will be no harm.”

On the other end of the phone, Mr. Korn smiled awkwardly and said, “The suitability is also something we have considered. Someone from the company will explain the details to you in detail. Let’s end this matter here. I have other work to complete, so I won’t say much. I’m sorry, Mr. Xenon.”

After saying that, the other party hung up.

Xenon sat down on the sofa in a daze, disbelief written all over his face.

How could this be?

Originally, he had wanted to use this opportunity to stabilize his small company in New York. He did not expect that after planning for so long, all his efforts would be in vain... Xenon’s face was filled with disappointment.

On the other hand, the witch was even more nervous and her expression became flustered. She actually just wanted to cheat him and escape quickly. She did not expect that after she had just completed the ritual and adjusted Xenon’s frequency, he seemed to have become even more tragic.
