Chapter 1067 Dead End (II)

• Regal Peaks might hit a few bumps, but it would still push forward. With Sincere Crest backing it and pouring in that much money, they weren’t about to run a loss-making deal. On that kind of footing, the stock exchange still turned them down with a unified line. That made the whole thing smell off. Chadwick Fullner already had a bad hunch gnawing at him, but he didn’t want to go there. If he was right, then their path was completely blocked.
• Chad decided to stop overthinking it. Like Madison Sawyer, he knew what he was trying to do was full of landmines. Honestly, the pressure on him wasn’t any lighter than hers. Watching the woman he loved grind herself down while he could do so little—it gutted him. He blamed his own lack of clout for Madison’s suffering. For a man with a fierce pride, that kind of pain cut deep. But right now, he could only shut out every other thought and do anything in his power for her.
• Chad reached out to the bank manager he’d gone to the first time he expanded and needed a loan—because they dealt a lot, and the guy was easy to talk to. Plus, Jiajia’s deposits and loans had juiced the guy’s performance. He’d even gotten promoted and had treated Chad to a meal to say thanks for the long-term support. Chad felt he was a stand-up guy who valued relationships, so he figured he’d go to him to talk this through.
