**Chapter 240 Bennett Group’s Counterstrike**

Chris cast a quick glance at his phone, a frown etching itself across his brow. The urgency of the moment clawed at him as he hurriedly attempted to call Mr. Quinn, his heart racing with each futile attempt.

No matter how many times he pressed the dial button, the call would not connect. The silence on the other end felt like a heavy weight pressing down on him.

Kevin, leaning back casually against the wall, flashed a mischievous grin. “You can keep dreaming about working with Bennett Group, but count me out! I’m not interested in wasting my time on this nonsense!”

With that declaration, he made no move to hide his intention to leave, and Chris found himself at a loss, realizing he had no compelling reason to stop him.

What if something truly unfortunate had befallen Mr. Quinn? The thought sent a shiver down his spine, forcing him to reconsider the wisdom of collaborating with Bennett Group.

Just then, a notification chimed on his phone, breaking the tension. It was a WhatsApp message from Mr. Quinn.

“I’m tied up at the moment. The Chunk family project will be temporarily handed over to headquarters. Jeremy will contact you shortly.”

Chris felt a wave of disbelief wash over him. The resort project might not have been the largest undertaking, but it certainly wasn’t insignificant. The mere fact that Mr. Quinn had been willing to partner with him spoke volumes about the trust he had placed in Chris.

Now, Bennett Group was dispatching a general assistant from headquarters to take charge? The honor of it struck him, leaving him both flattered and slightly overwhelmed by the unexpected importance of the situation.

Without wasting a moment, he replied with a quick confirmation of his availability, and then he lunged towards Kevin, who was just about to slip out the door.

“Wait! We’re going to the meeting!” he exclaimed, urgency lacing his voice.

Kevin, still grappling with confusion, blinked at him, clearly perplexed. “Mr. Quinn got arrested! What meeting are we supposed to attend?”

Chris, his enthusiasm bubbling over, replied, “Bennett Group is filled with talent. Mr. Quinn can’t attend, but he’s sending someone from headquarters in his place. This is a golden opportunity to network with Bennett Group’s senior leadership. You can’t let it slip away!”

Kevin let out a frustrated groan, but Chris’s determination held him captive, preventing any escape.

…

Isaac picked up the phone with a sense of foreboding.

It was Mr. Quinn from Bennett Group’s Javerton branch, and Isaac made a conscious effort to keep his tone respectful. “Mr. Quinn, how can I assist you today?”

Mr. Quinn had just managed to extricate himself from a precarious situation thanks to Jonathan. Once he had settled his own affairs, he swiftly traced the smear campaign back to its origin.

As he spoke to Isaac, his face twisted in contempt. “Mr. Monroe, this isn’t how one conducts business warfare. Spreading falsehoods about me harassing a subordinate? Have you really sunk that low?”

Isaac was aware of the scandals surrounding Mr. Quinn, but he couldn’t fathom how they implicated him.

“Mr. Quinn, you must be mistaken. I haven’t done anything of the sort. I’ve always respected you—why on earth would I attempt to frame you?”

Mr. Quinn scoffed derisively. “I’ve already uncovered the truth. The person who bribed my subordinate was your sister. Wasn’t she acting on your orders? Hah. Isaac, if you want to play dirty, don’t blame me for being ruthless. We’ve all been in Javerton long enough. Everyone has skeletons in their closets. If you come after me, I won’t hold back.”

With that, he hung up in a fit of anger.

Isaac frowned, his mind racing. After a moment of contemplation, he resolved to call Isabelle.

How could she have been foolish enough to target someone from Bennett Group?

Before he could complete the call, his secretary burst into the room, her face a mask of anxiety.

“What is it?” Isaac asked, irritation creeping into his voice.

The secretary shifted nervously, her hands fidgeting. “Mr. Monroe, the suppliers we worked so hard to secure are suddenly expressing a desire to cease cooperation.”

She handed him a file, her expression grave.

Isaac skimmed through the document, his heart sinking.

Every single one of those suppliers had maintained a long-standing relationship with Bennett Group.

If they were pulling out now, it was undoubtedly due to Bennett Group’s influence.

Isaac’s jaw tightened in fury.

If Monroe Corp lost these suppliers, their entire supply chain would face a catastrophic collapse.

Not long after, directors from the marketing, e-commerce, and PR departments filed in one after another, each bringing a new set of problems.

Isaac’s head began to throb, overwhelmed by the barrage of issues.

Bennett Group’s reach in Javerton was extensive, permeating every industry.

If they intended to dismantle the Monroe family, it would be a mere stroll in the park for them.

He remained buried in crisis management until late into the night when a sudden realization struck him—the true architect of this chaos was Isabelle.

With urgency, he dialed her number.

Isabelle was in the midst of selecting jewelry for her upcoming wedding, a smile lighting up her face.

Now that she had a child, a newfound sense of security enveloped her. She was convinced that marrying Nathaniel was her destiny.

“Isabelle, have you lost your mind? Why would you provoke Mr. Quinn from Bennett Group? Don’t you understand that the Monroe family can’t afford to cross them?”

Isabelle, caught off guard by her brother’s swift discovery, playfully stuck out her tongue, dismissing the gravity of the situation.

“Mr. Quinn is just an employee. Ruining his reputation isn’t a big deal. Does Bennett Group really care about him that much?”

Isaac let out a bitter laugh, disbelief fueling his tone. “Smearing Mr. Quinn was just your way of coercing Bennett Group into handing over the Chunk family project to Nathaniel, wasn’t it? Well, did you succeed? Mr. Quinn has the entire Bennett family backing him. He hasn’t been affected in the slightest! It’s us—the Monroe family—that’s taking the brunt of this blow!”

“How could that be? Is the Bennett family truly that powerful? You’re not lying to me, are you?”

Isabelle still failed to grasp the severity of the situation.

“Isabelle, if the Monroe family crumbles, do you think Nathaniel will still want to marry you? For once, use that brain of yours. What matters more—the Monroe family or Nathaniel?”

In the wake of the chaos ignited by Isabelle’s reckless actions, the stakes for both the Monroe and Bennett families have escalated dramatically. Chris’s fervent determination to seize the opportunity presented by Bennett Group, despite the turmoil surrounding Mr. Quinn, reflects a longing for validation and success that transcends mere ambition. His initial anxiety transforms into a sense of purpose, as he recognizes the importance of the moment and the trust Mr. Quinn has placed in him. Meanwhile, Isaac grapples with the fallout of his sister’s misguided decisions, realizing that their family’s survival hinges on navigating the treacherous waters of corporate rivalry. The emotional tension culminates in a stark awakening for both brothers: the fragile balance between personal ambition and familial loyalty.
