To that, Lacey replied, “Mr. Wheeler, we have already settled your payment. Shall I show you the receipt?”

Dave immediately said, “Ms. Hinton, you misunderstood me. Of course, I'm aware that the payment has been

settled. I won't deny that.”

“Then what payment were you talking about, Mr. Wheeler?”

“Oh, I was talking about the penalty fee. You have only settled the payment but not the penalty fee.”

Lacey was stunned. “Penalty fee? What penalty fee?”

“Ms. Hinton, are you playing dumb with me? Judging from the current situation of Linton Group, I doubt you will be

able to continue taking the goods from my company. That will be a breach of contract on your end. According to

our contract, you will need to pay a penalty fee of fifty million if you cancel the contract. Have you forgotten about

this? Shall I show you the contract now?”

Lacey was dumbfounded. She did not expect Dave to mention the contract.

In most cases, when the business partner went bankrupt, the supplier would not chase for payment. The supplier

might even offer a sum of money for support. It was an unspoken rule.

For someone like Dave to act according to the contract, it was rare.

If Dave really pursued the matter using their agreement, it would be a headache to deal with.

Lacey quickly responded, “Mr. Wheeler, you are well aware of the situation of Linton Group right now. There is no

way we can pay that hefty penalty fee. Seeing that we have worked together for so many years, please let us off,

Mr. Wheeler.”

Unfortunately, Dave was unmoved. “I'm sorry, but everyone has their own problems. I feel sorry for you, but who's

going to feel sorry for me?”

Lacey was about to beg him when Nancy stopped her.

“Lacey, stop begging him. Can't you tell that Mr. Wheeler and Daisy are in cahoots? They won't back off no matter

what you say.”

To that, Dave did not bother to defend himself.

Instead, he continued to push his luck. “I don't care. You will have to pay me the penalty fee of fifty million by today.

Otherwise, I'll have no choice but to smash your building.”

With a wave of his huge hand, a group of fierce-looking workers rushed in with their tools. They looked as if they

could destroy the building any minute.

Lacey took a deep breath before shouting, “Enough! Stop it! All you want is money, right? I'll give it to you. I can

always borrow the money from someone else.”

She then took out her phone and was about to make a call.

It was then Dave sneered, “Ms. Hinton, let me give you a word of advice. If you're going to borrow money, then

make sure you ask for a lot more. Even one billion may not be enough.”

Lacey stared at him. “I only owe you fifty million. Why do I need to borrow so much money?”

“That's true. You only owe me fifty million, but you also owe several others too.”

What is he talking about?

Lacey was baffled.

Dave snapped his fingers and hollered, “Why are all of you still standing outside the door? Come in.”

Just as he finished talking, a group of people dashed in.

Like Dave, they were suppliers for Linton Group.

Realization dawned on Lacey, and her face turned red.

Oh no. We are in big trouble.

If all of them ask Linton Group for their penalty fees, then it is true that one billion won't suffice.

The group of suppliers walked in and greeted Daisy first.

“Good morning, Ms. Daisy.”

Daisy nodded in acknowledgment. “What are all of you doing here so early?”

They answered, “What else? Linton Group owes us our penalty fees, so we have come here to collect the money.”

“That's right. It has been so long, but Linton Group has yet to furnish us with the penalty fees. They don't even

bother to say anything. This is too much.”

“Since they are playing dumb about the penalty fees, we have no choice but to come here personally and remind

them.”
