Chapter 274

"You're telling me to leave?" Archie laughed sarcastically. "You really think you can give orders like that? Let me tell you, today, I call the shots!"

"Do you even know who Mr. Zimmer is? He's the scion of the most prominent family in the capital, Mr. Xander's son."

"Does it matter who he is?" Cameron interrupted coldly. "All I know is that this is my territory."

"You!" Archie's expression darkened. "You think too highly of yourself. This is Mr. Zimmer's territory. Unless he agrees, nobody has the right to make me leave. Do you think one word from you can banish me? I've already moved to the capital and partnered with many outstanding companies there. In fact, I should thank you. Thanks to your stupid ex-wife, I can now rely on many excellent enterprises and live a smooth life!"

"Oh, is that so?" Cameron smiled faintly, a hint of coldness in his eyes. "Well, I'm sorry to inform you that you have nothing now."

"You're informing me? Who do you think you are?" Archie burst into laughter. "Do you think you have influence in the capital? Do you think the CEOs of those capital companies will take orders from a useless person like you?"

"You don't believe me?" Cameron's smile remained.

Cameron dialed Lord Blackheart's number. "Relay my order. All companies and enterprises in the capital are to cut off all ties with Archie from now on."

"Yes, sir," Lord Blackheart replied.

Cameron hung up. It was time to retract everything he had previously granted.

The phone call caught Archie off guard, but he didn't panic. Instead, he struggled to contain his laughter, finally bursting into laughter while clutching his stomach. "Are you trying to kill me with your jokes? Who do you think you are? Do you think a single phone call can make the CEOs of capital companies let go of their partnerships with me? Do you even know who they are? Do you know them personally? How dare you say such things?"

"Does it matter whether I know them or not? They know me, and that's enough," Cameron replied calmly.

"I can't take it anymore. I'm seriously going to die laughing!" Archie laughed uncontrollably, tears streaming down his face.

Lena said coldly, "Archie, can you shut up? You're so annoying."

"Colonel Bailey, this has nothing to do with me. You saw it yourself—it's that kid showing off," Archie said, wiping away his tears and looking at Lena with a playful expression.

Lena frowned, but realized she couldn't refute him. She relented, saying to Cameron, "Cameron, let's go. Ignore him."

"Did you hear that, kid? Listen to Colonel Bailey and get lost. Stop embarrassing yourself!" Archie mocked.

Cameron remained indifferent. Archie's phone rang. It was a CEO from a capital company.

"See? The CEO is calling me. It must be for another new project," Archie boasted, showing Cameron the phone screen before answering. His smile faded a second later. The CEO was terminating their partnership.

One call ended, then more followed. CEOs were terminating their partnerships with Archie.

"How could this be" Archie's face turned ashen. One coincidence could be explained, but several in a row? It definitely pointed to a problem. Could it really be Cameron? Archie looked at him in disbelief.

Cameron's lips curled slightly. "Do you believe me now?"
