Grayson promptly entered my office, and I instructed him to commence his investigation.

Tobshampton Group had indeed forged an agreement with Ardora Construction, which fell under

Matthew's jurisdiction.

As expected, few individuals could orchestrate such a move, and Matthew was the prime suspect. "But, it wasn't Matthew who initiated this. It was a scheme set up by Liora!" Grayson relayed.

"Liora?" I was surprised. How did she become involved in this?

Grayson explained, "Initially, Tobshampton Group had no intentions of partnering with Ardora Construction. Matthew wasn't even being considered for Topshampton Group's project. During their previous collaboration, there was friction.

"Matthew substituted Tobshampton Group's genuine product with subpar materials in the construction

process, utilizing a small factory for production. With minor alterations, he passed them off as authentic.

"So, when the incident occurred, Tobshampton Group didn't step forward. This time, Ardora Construction wasn't even on their list when selecting a new supplier. It was all due to Liora!"

Grayson's investigation was thorough.

"How does Liora have connections with Tobshampton Group?" I was skeptical, considering Tobshampton Group's base wasn't even in Foswood.

"It's a small world. Liora has a friendship with the Tobshampton Group's owner's wife, and... Eleanor is a

confidante of Tobshampton Group's owner."

"Confidante?" I was even more astonished. I hadn't expected Eleanor to wield this level of influence.

This paints a clear picture. Thanks to Liora's connection through the owner, she managed to secure the contract and even expressed her frustrations directly to the owner." Grayson smirked. "It's a bit convoluted, isn't it?"

"It's a bit tangled, indeed," I pondered. "So, how did Liora pass the contract to Matthew?"

"Why did you cross Liora?" Grayson sounded somewhat resigned.

"Let me handle this. You can wait for me here."

I was exasperated. It seemed Liora was indeed holding a grudge.

Eleanor hesitated and asked, "You don't want to ask... who signed the contract... with us?"

"I won't put you in a tough spot," I said openly, "Whoever it is, there must be a reason."

I had a vague sense of who it might be, but I couldn't be sure.

Hearing my response, Eleanor sighed and laughed bitterly. I knew she felt conflicted.

"All right then, until we meet again," Eleanor said before we hung up.

Carol stomped in frustration. "Damn it! We got played, didn't we? Who conducts business like that? We didn't want to sign the contract, but they insisted and then backed out. What kind of trick is this? Benny even said they were trustworthy!"

"There's something wrong here. Get Grayson for me," I said thoughtfully. I wasn't angry because I didn't sign the deal. It was more about someone interfering with my business, and I wanted to find out who they
