Chapter 780 Delivering Fake Information
Oscar scoffed, “Mom, I guess Noah and Stephanie must have complained to you, huh? Do you remember the
patient who went into a coma after being electrocuted by the phone? Do you still remember the commotion his
family caused in our company? And do you know who smashed and injured me?”
Owen and Olivia froze for a moment. “You mean Noah instigated the family?” Olivia raised her voice. Oscar stood
up, walked to his desk, and opened his drawer. He then drew out the document Emma had given him and handed it
to Olivia.
Olivia’s expression darkened after she went through the document. She could not believe her son-in-law, who
always appeared to be respectful and obedient, was the culprit behind all this.
She asked Oscar, “So Noah ganged up with that foreigner named June and did all these behind our back? He has
crossed the line!”
“Mom, everything is written in black and white here. I’ve been treating him well because of you, yet he turned his
back against the Clinton family. What an ingrate,” Oscar replied nonchalantly.
Olivia passed the document to Owen, and his expression turned grim after he flipped through the pages. “What’s
your plan, Oscar?” Owen asked. “Terminate our partnership with Walker Group. It’s time to cut ties with that
ingrate.”
Upon hearing that, Olivia hesitated. “But Oscar, Noah did mention he and June are business partners, and I can
understand this kind of collaboration is unavoidable for a company that is about to go public. Besides, your sister is
his wife, and she’s carrying his child. Let’s not go overboard since we’re still family.”
Oscar responded with a faint smile and said nothing. “Should I get Noah to apologize to you? We should try our best
to resolve this internal conflict since we’re a family,” Olivia said so because she did not want Stephanie to suffer in
the Walker family. “Mom, you came all the way to the office to talk to me about this. I can’t say no to you, can I?”

“All right, then. I suppose Noah didn’t do those things on purpose. Everything will be okay once we talk it out.” Olivia
then called Noah on the phone and asked him to come over. Soon, Noah arrived at the company with Stephanie.
“Stephanie, you should be resting at home since you’re pregnant. What are you doing here?” Olivia helped her to
the couch while glaring at Noah.
“Dad, Mom, take a seat first. I’ll have a chat with Noah in the conference room. I must have this talk with him in
private.” Oscar glanced at Noah. “Shall we?”
“Sure. How can I say no to you?”
Stephanie was a little worried, but when she was about to say anything, Olivia nudged her to stop her from making
any comments.
She had no choice but to remain silent.
Oscar and Noah then entered the conference room. Oscar walked to the window, overlooking the hustle and bustle
of the city.
“Oscar, is there something you want to talk to me about?”
“How long have you been in cahoots with June? Tell me the truth.”
Noah’s face changed for a bit, but he immediately feigned ignorance. “Yes, I’m interested in working with June but
only because he has strong support from the Aidleton family. We need him and the Aidletons to break into the
Erihal market. But what do you mean when you said I’m in cahoots with him? I don’t get it.”
“You’re a smart man, Noah, and you’re very meticulous. But don’t you forget, I have all the resources in the world
to find out what you’re doing behind my back. I’m giving you one more chance—work with me, and let’s take June
down together. Otherwise, I’ll tell Mom about the losses Walker Group has made over the years. You can tell how
much my mom dotes on Stephanie, right? I’m sure she’ll ask Stephanie to divorce you if she finds out about it. If
that happens, you’ll lose everything. Also, I’m willing to turn a blind eye to all the things you’ve done to destroy
Clinton Corporations.”
Noah instantly blanched at his words. After a short struggle, he said, “All right. I’ll follow your lead.”
Oscar walked over, patted his shoulder, and said, “I knew I could count on you.”
Noah responded with a wry smile, as he had no clue what Oscar’s next move would be.
Of course, Oscar would not let Noah off so easily. If Noah and June were two sneaky mice with some dirty tricks up
their sleeves, Oscar would be the watchful cat that would keep everything under his control.
“I can help you with Walker Group’s cash flow, but you have to show me your sincerity. I remember June stole a
project proposal from me, and all I want you to do is increase the project’s budget. If you’re willing to do this, the
Clinton family will help you get through this,” Oscar said.
Noah felt it was an impossible mission. June is not an idiot. He’ll definitely not show me the proposal’s budget.
“You think too highly of me, Oscar. June and I have only met a few times, and we only decided to collaborate
because we get along pretty well. How would I know the budget of that project?”
“I heard the government is interested in developing the land opposite his project. All you need to do is leak this
piece of information to Noah. He’s a smart guy, so I’m sure he’ll expedite his project.”
Noah went deep in thought for a moment, as he did not know that the government would develop that land.
“All right. I promise you,” Noah agreed.
“Great. Let’s head back to my office. I don’t want my parents and sister to worry about us. They’re scared that I
might do something to you.”
“Come on, Oscar.”
After returning to the office, Noah plastered a sincere look on his face and bowed before Olivia and Owen. “Dad,
Mom, I’m sorry. I had been in partnership with June before this, and I didn’t know they were actually business rivals.
Had I known this earlier, I would have kept a distance from June. I’m sure I’ve let you down, but I promise to take
good care of Steph.”
Olivia nodded. “I’m glad to hear that. Stephanie is our only daughter, so of course, we want the best for her. As
long as you treat her well, the Clintons will take good care of you too.”
Noah lowered his eyes to conceal his emotions.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia and Owen left the office after a short talk.
Days went by peacefully after the talk Oscar had with Noah.
At this stage, Noah dared not step on Oscar’s toes anymore. That was why he did what Oscar said by meeting up
with June more frequently. He also intentionally mentioned the government wished to develop the land opposite
theirs into a supermarket and other commercial lots.
That news obviously piqued June’s interest, but he was still suspicious about it. After lighting a cigar, June asked,
“Where did you get this piece of news from? I’ve never heard of it before.”
“Oscar mentioned the project, and one of the men I stationed in Clinton Corporations overheard it, so the
information is definitely true. I heard he plans to bid for the land that the government wishes to auction, and this is
the amount.” Noah held up his index and middle fingers.
Upon seeing that, June asked, “Two hundred million?”
Noah responded with a snort and said, “June, are you kidding? You’re in this industry. How on earth did you come up
with that figure? That is a large piece of land, mind you.”
“Two billion?” June seemed calm. “The land may be large, but it’s quite a distance from the city center. Would the
government really auction off the land to build a supermarket and commercial lots?”
“You can ignore what I said if you don’t want to believe me. I heard Clinton Corporations wanted to bid the land with
two billion and three hundred million. You think about it.” Noah did not elaborate further and raised his glass.
“Come, let’s toast to the success of our collaboration in the future.”
June clinked his glass with Noah’s before diving into deep thoughts.
After gulping down the glass of wine, Noah got up and said, “June, I’ll make a move first.”
June nodded in acknowledgment.
After Noah left June’s company, a breeze brushed over his face, sobering him up from the alcohol he had earlier.
While walking to his car, he received a call from Emma.
His eyes darkened. After hesitating for a while, he answered the phone.
