Chapter 540 Change of Heart Those executives, who had initially been so confident in their strategy, now looked visibly uneasy as Michael's resolve becapparent. They thought, "This is not what Lucy told us.

Didn't she say that once Michael knew we wanted to terminate the contract, he'd have no choice but to meet our demands? But now...?" Exchanging anxious glances, they finally turned to Michael and said, "Mr. Shawn, may we have a moment to discuss this privately?" Michael barely glanced at them and waved his hand dismissively. "Go ahead." Relieved, they quickly moved to another room.

Asher, seated beside Michael, asked, "If they really don't want to renew the contract, are you seriously willing to let Shawn Heavy Industries go?" Michael's response was nonchalant. "They won't dare." Asher was momentarily taken aback, wondering if Michael's confident demeanor was a strategic move to intimidate them. He couldn't help but doubt if Michael was just putting on a front.

A few minutes later, the executives returned, their faces now plastered with obsequious smiles.

"Mr. Shawn, we've reconsidered. We believe in the strength of Shawn Heavy Industries. Even without Ms. Campbell, Shawn Heavy Industries will still have top-notch talent." Michael's expression suggested he'd anticipated their change of heart. "So, are you saying you're willing to renew the contract?" The executives nodded vigorously, seizing the opportunity before Michael could fully lose his temper. "Of course, we're old friends. We'd never cut ties with Shawn Heavy Industries. It was a lapse in judgment on our part, and we didn't mean to create any friction." Michael wore a faint smile.

Without another word, he stood up and walked out, Asher trailing behind him and tossing a casual "Looking forward to working together" over his shoulder.

Once the two were gone, the executives wiped the sweat from their brows. "We almost got screwed over by Lucy's mess!" "I knew Michael wouldn't be easily intimidated. Luckily we backed off in time. Offending Shawn Heavy Industries would be one thing, but crossing Michael would be a disaster!" Michael's ncarried far more weight than Shawn Heavy Industries alone.

Meanwhile, Lucy was at home, expecting a call from Michael about returning to work. Instead, she received a call from the clients.

The voice on the other end said, "Lucy, let's just call it quits on this matter." Lucy's heart skipped a beat. "What? Why? You can't just cancel like that!" She thought, "We had everything worked out before. What made them suddenly change their minds?" "We warned you. Michael almost blacklisted us from the industry. If we hadn't given in, our business would've been over!" Lucy was stunned.

"Didn't you tell him to letgo back? Did you make extra demands? Otherwise, why wouldn't he accept?" She couldn't believe it, thinking, "Given my history with Michael, he wouldn't refuse to letreturn to Shawn Heavy Industries. There must be sextra conditions these people added." "We didn't add any conditions. Michael simply doesn't want you back. Forget it. I'm just here to inform you that our cooperation is canceled. Don't contact us again." Before Lucy could respond, the line went dead.

Furious, she threw her phone against the wall.

She thought, "Why? Why? All I wanted was to go back to Shawn Heavy Industries.

Why won't he agree?!" As she pondered this, Chloe's face flashed through Lucy's mind.

She thought, "It has to be Chloe. If it weren't for her, Michael wouldn't soy Michael have been so heartless!"

Clenching her fists, Lucy walked over to retrieve her phone from the floor. The screen was shattered, but the device was still functional. She quickly pulled up a number and dialed it with urgency.

"Hey, it's tto set our plan in motion. Once everything's in place, I'll transfer the agreed amount to your account, just as promised."
