StartNovelChapter 1356: As Daniela prepared to leave, she turned to Cedric and said, "Wait until I return for everything. If the McCoy family gives you trouble, don't confront them head-on." Cedric nodded, assisting Daniela with her packing. "I know. You've remindeda few times. Don't worry. I've got things covered here." Daniela responded, "You don't need to keep an eye on everything. Just make sure the design drafts are finalized." Cedric let out a soft laugh. "What? You don't trust me?" And she didn't.
Dealing with the McCoy family was never easy, and that left Daniela uneasy.
"It's nothing. You're only gone for two days. What could possibly go wrong?" he asked.

Cedric made his way back to the building, where the design phase was complete, and construction had kicked off. Yet, the McCoy family's sway had caused significant delays, with many materials still not delivered, halting the workers' progress.
Several projects Daniela had previously negotiated had to be temporarily shelved.
Fearing the situation, Daniela had decided not to bring Carol along this time.
Carol watched as Cedric contacted suppliers for the building materials. "You don't need to call them. I've already tried. The McCoy family's influence makes them too afraid to do business with us." However, by afternoon, the building materials arrived. Carol was taken aback when she saw that the materials were all of exceptional quality.
She asked Cedric, "Did you pay a premium for these? That's impossible. I offered them more before, and they refused. They're terrified of the McCoy family."

Cedric stepped outside to make another call.
Carol had taken responsibility for the staffing issue. She reached out to several staffing companies, but every tthe McCoy family was mentioned, they refused to cooperate.
It was during this tthat Carol fully understood the truth behind the saying-Oiscoll was, in essence, the McCoy family's territory.
She said to Cedric, "Finding people is impossible. You can see the extent of my efforts." As her words faded, a crowd of professional builders suddenly poured in, filling the space.
Carol blinked in disbelief. "Where on earth did all these people cfrom? You didn't promise the McCoy family anything to rush things, did E you? Please tellyou didn't. These are just small problems. If you give in to any of their demands, Daniela will be livid."
Cedric offered a reassuring smile and headed upstairs to get to work. With both materials and labor now in place, and Cedric overseeing every step, the project surged forward at a rapid pace.
Carol stood in awe, watching as the building swiftly neared its completion. She sought out Cedric and overheard him speaking to Daniela on the phone. "I haven't done anything. It's just as it was when you left. There's no issue here. You can stay a few more days."
