Chapter 980:
Despite the groupâs financial strength, the loss of two to three hundred million each month wasnât sustainable in the long run.
The man sighed, continuing, âMr. Brenton Sanderson has reached out to Mr. Fleming Sanderson, but the National Physics Laboratory remains firm in itsâ¦â
The man continued, âEven Mr. Fleming Sanderson couldnât get any details about when these materials will be released.
Do you have any suggestions on how we might obtain some information? Or perhaps you could speculate on when these materials could be available, so we can mitigate our losses?â His words were laced with hesitation, and he didnât dare meet Harleeâs gaze.
After all, if even someone as influential as Fleming couldnât get answers, how could Harleeâseemingly without ties to the labâsucceed?
But as an employee, the man had no choice but to press on.
âIf this continues, it could drain all our investments.â The moment the man brought up the project, those with strong connections began murmuring among themselves, though their conversations were kept discreet.
âTheyâre still trying to challenge Harlee. I wonder how sheâll handle this.â
âHonestly, I donât think sheâll manage.
Everyone knows these new materials are key to the future.
Even the Sanderson Group has to wait for the lab to release them.
How could Harlee solve this? Unless her connections are stronger than Flemingâs!â
âWe need to tread carefully with her. Questions can be left unasked, but we mustnât offend herâ¦â

The top executives were quick to caution the department managers, preferring to offend the board members than risk crossing Harlee.
After all, losing a job was one thing, but angering Harlee could lead to much worse.
Harleeâs slender fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, and the man, assuming she was about to snap, nearly buckled under the tension.
At this time, the assistant, understanding Harleeâs intent, stepped forward to take the report from the manâs hands, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.
The assistant handed the report over to Harlee with both hands. The new energy project had been dragging on for a while, giving Brenton a headache. Yet now, Dina and the man were pressing Harlee to handle something even Brenton and Fleming had failed at. This was clearly an attempt to challenge her.
The assistant had hoped Jeffreyâs recent incident would keep these troublemakers at bay, but it seemed they were quite audacious.
Concerned, the assistant quickly messaged Brenton. Yet, the reply he received was unexpected.
âAt least theyâre getting down to business now.â
The assistant was stunned. These individuals were making things difficult for Harlee, yet Brenton wasnât bothered at all? Could it be that he didnât want to protect Harlee anymore?
Upon receiving the assistantâs report, Brenton beamed with satisfaction.
Fleming had always insisted that Harlee was the only one capable of resolving the emerging energy dilemma.
