Chapter 575
Next the discovered that the Everlast Group’s properties had some serious quality issues in the coastal region back
in the day
Among them, the structural beams of the buildings had broken, causing over a hundred homeowners to demand
refunds.
However, since the Internet wasn’t that developed back then, the news got squashed
Now, a decade had passed, and nobody cared about what happened to those homeowners.
Maja could only replace out that these folks didn’t dare live in the buildings with broken beams, but the developers
didn’t want to give them their money back either
This behavior was practically robbery.
Maja quickly hopped on a plane to the coast, found the community, and managed to get the contact information of
these homeowners from other residents.
For the past ten years, they’ve been fighting for their rights.
One of these homeowners had planned to use the house as a wedding gift, with both the man and woman pitching
in to buy it.
But when the house was deemed unlivable and they couldn’t get their money back, the man couldn’t help blaming
his new wife,
In the end, the wife jumped off the roof of this dangerous building and died in front of him.
Apart from some old folks who died of depression because of this issue, the other homeowners were still fighting in
court.
But after a decade, the storm they’ve stirred was too small. Coupled with the vast influence of the developers, their
voices had all been suppressed.
Maja looked at the eighty–plus people in front of her. She explained her intentions to them and paid for their plane
tickets and all expenses to Greenfield.
However, a middle–aged man stood up,
“Miss Penny, it’s useless. The EverBest Group has bribed some folks and listed all of us as defaulters. We can’t take
the high–speed train or planes, and we can’t even drive our own cars to Greenfield. We’ll be stopped and sent
back.”
Maja narrowed her eyes and dialed Holden’s number.
After explaining the situation, Holden coughed a few times on the other end.
During his tenure, Holden was highly respected. He had never heard of such outrageous behavior, so he personally
called the mayor.
In less than two hours, the people discovered they could purchase plane tickets.
The eighty–plus people cheered, tears welling up in their eyes. Some even started crying on the spot.
Maja took a deep breath, looking seriously at everyone.
“I’m helping you for personal reasons too. After we get to Greenfield, I’ll pave the way for you, but I have one
condition. You must refuse to be bought by them. We need to make a big fuss about this and let the whole country
know.”
When the EverBest Group was mentioned, everyone’s faces filled with anger.
“The EverBest Group is our enemy! We swear, we won’t believe a word they say!”
“We want to sue them!”
“We won’t back down, we’ve waited ten years!”
With that, Maja took the group to Greenfield.
She even hired the most professional and prestigious legal team in Greenfield,
Just a day before the EverBest Group was about to sign a contract, this group of people arrived at the company’s
building with banners.
Journalists who received the news hurried over.
These homeowners were no longer young, with the youngest being in their thirties.
With over eighty people gathered, it garnered the attention you’d expect.
TV stations immediately reported the incident, and coupled with the group’s experiences, it sparked public outrage.
According to current laws, if a house had serious structural issues before it’s handed over, the developer must
refund the money. But the EverBest Group didn’t give refunds back then. They even used their connections to list all
of these homeowners as defaulters.
For most people, having a house of their own was a lifelong goal.
The EverBest Group not only took their hard–earned money but also prevented them from speaking out. It was
simply shocking.
The leader of the group was a professor. He held a megaphone and condemned the EverBest Group’s actions over
the past decade to the media.
“We’ve experienced ten years of hardship, but our passion hasn’t cooled. We demand justice; we want our rights
back. We went from over a hundred people to just over eighty Because of the EverBest Group’s actions, some have
lost their parents, others their wives.”
“The EverBest Group has always been high and mighty. Do they really lack a few million dollars? They don’t! They
just don’t want to give it. They look down on us, thinking we’re just ordinary people who can’t make a big fuss. But if
we ordinary people don’t speak up, the same disaster could happen to you!”
Over at the EverBest Group, they were already uneasy because of the arrival of these people.
They were supposed to sign a contract the next day, but now this happened.
Online public opinion immediately sided with the group, and the EverBest Group was criticized to the point where
they didn’t dare to open the comments on their official accounts.
Their stock price plummeted by half, and preliminary estimates showed a loss of half a billion dollars.
Maja had been keeping an eye on the EverBest Group’s stock. Seeing the price fall, a cold smile flashed in her eyes.
The Shepard family was in chaos, with everyone at a loss. The pressure from public opinion was intense, and if not
handled properly, the stock price could hit a

limit.
At this crucial moment, the company that was supposed to sign a financing contract with them backed out and
criticized them severely.
Carlene paced anxiously, scolding the elders loudly.
“It’s just a few million dollars; what were you being so greedy for?! Now that things have blown up like this, how are
we going to clean up the mess?”
A few million dollars ten years ago was a huge sum.
The people of the Shepard family all looked at Carlene with anticipation.
“Carlene, those people were originally on the defaulter list, but they quietly came to Greenfield this time. Someone
must be helping them.”
“Don’t I know someone’s been helping them out?! The burning question right now is how we’re going to deal with
this. Every day we wait, the Shepard family might just go belly up!”
“Carlene, go seek help from lan; he could be our only hope to save the Shepard family. His dad’s still in the hot seat;
he holds all the power, he’s got both the dough and the clout. If he lends a helping hand, the Shepard family might
just make it out unscathed.”
Carlene took a deep breath, her fists clenched tightly.
“Firstly, we need to negotiate with these people and compensate them three times the original price of their
property. If we don’t do this, the more reporters come knocking, the more our reputation is going to hit rock
bottom. I’ll go to lan; someone from the top brass of the EverBest Group has to own up to this, but I’ll ask for lan’s
help to lighten the charges, pay a fine, or something at the end.”
She picked up her bag, ready to dash off to replace lan.
