GoodReadChapter 555 Admas' Help Lucy glared at him, her eyes brimming with defiance. "If you want to keep working with Kranton Bank, you'd better do exactly as I say. If you don't, don't say I didn't warn you." Michael didn't even glance at Lucy. Instead, he addressed Asher directly, "Asher, get the security." Lucy's pride was stung. "Enough! I don't need you to call security. I'll leave on my own." With that, she stormed out.
Once she was gone, Asher turned to Michael. "Michael, if what she said is true, what about Shawn Heavy Industries?" Kranton Bank had been deeply involved with Shawn Heavy Industries. When a project required a large investment, collaboration with the bank was crucial.
If Lucy's claims were accurate and the bank cut off their funds, they wouldn't have the money needed to complete projects, jeopardizing their deals with other companies. The result would be a financial mess, a vicious cycle of debt and default.
"If the bank won't lend us the money, we'll go to Paramount Airlines," Michael replied, furrowing his brow.

Lucy's alliance with Abel was a surprise he hadn't seen coming.
"But your grandfather..." Asher hesitated.
Admas had never supported Michael's establishment of Shawn Heavy Industries. The fact that he had managed to keep Admas' disapproval at bay was a miracle. Convincing Admas to back a loan from Paramount Airlines seemed nearly impossible.
Michael pinched the bridge of his nose. "Grandpa isn't unreasonable. If I explain the situation, he'll agree." Although Michael was now taking charge of Paramount Airlines, Admas hadn't fully relinquished control. Plus, with Chloe's departure, Admas' dissatisfaction with Michael had only grown, resulting in the company's partial ownership still being withheld.
Shawn Heavy Industries was facing perhaps its biggest challenge yet. Even if Michael wasn't sure whether his grandfather would agree, he had to try.
That evening, Michael visited Shawn Manor.
Admas looked up, somewhat surprised to see him alone. "Well, look who decided to drop by. What's the occasion?" Usually, Michael only cby when specifically summoned, making this visit unexpected.
Michael changed into house slippers and made his way to the sofa. Gigi, whose leg was healing from a previous injury, still limped but greeted him with enthusiasm, nudging his leg. "Grandpa, I need to talk to you about something..." For the first time, Michael felt a pang of uncertainty in front of his grandfather. Admas gave him a sharp look. "Something wrong with Shawn Heavy Industries?" Michael was taken aback. His grandfather seemed to know before he even spoke.
Admas snorted, saying, "I've watched you grow up. Do you think I don't know when something's bothering you? Besides Shawn Heavy Industries, what else would have you looking so glum?" Admas thought, "Oh, right. There is also the issue with Chloe.

Michael can only cbotheringwith things about Shawn Heavy Industries."
Feeling exposed, Michael was acutely aware of the shift. He had long ceased to rely on Admas, shouldering all the burdens of Shawn Heavy Industries himself. Tonight, though, was the first the was coming to Admas for help with the company. "Alright, spill it. What's really going on?" Michael bit his lip. "There's been a problem with the cash flow at Shawn Heavy Industries. I need to tap into sfunds from the family's resources to keep things afloat."
Admas studied him with a skeptical eye. "You've been making a pretty penny as a captain. in and running Shawn Heavy Industries. Can't you handle it with your own funds? Why cto me?" Michael had been pulling in significant profits over the years from his roles. Finding the money wasn't the issue.
But that wasn't what he was really after.
Admas continued, "What you're really looking for is leverage with Paramount Airlines and the Shawn O family to stabilize Shawn Heavy Industries. Money's just a small part of the puzzle, right?" His words made Michael flinch. It was clear that Admas, who had single-handedly built Paramount Airlines, knew exactly what was on Michael's mind.
