Chapter 432:
Vincent considered this and agreed that Ashton had a point, deciding to drop the issue for the time being. He then offered an apologetic smile and admitted, “Mr. Baldwin, you’re absolutely right. It’s my fault for not noticing Roy’s involvement sooner. If I had known, I wouldn’t have been kept in the dark for so long. I apologize for the disruption to your plans. I’ll start an investigation into Roy once I’m back and ensure you’re satisfied with the outcome p>
Seeing Vincent’s sincere attitude, Ashton felt his irritation fade considerably.
“I trust you’ll handle the matter well. Proceed as you think best,” Ashton replied with a reassuring smile.
Vincent sighed in relief, grateful to have dodged a bullet. With Vincent’s support, the issue with the company’s registration was essentially settled. The next step was expanding the team.
Having already interacted with Fraser’s associates, Ashton planned to publicly announce his company’s launch to avoid any doubts about hidden motives. After discussing it with Charlie, Ashton, under the Skyline Group umbrella, secured an office building and began advertising for positions.
Additionally, Ashton invited Jeff, a newly acquainted expert in antique appraisal, to join the company as the honorary chief appraiser and to attend the hiring event.
Pleased to connect with someone as promising as Ashton, Jeff eagerly accepted the offer.
With preparations completed, Ashton and his team had a brief period of peace before their hiring event. The acquisition of an entire office building was a bold display of Skyline Group’s deep pockets, sparking curiosity and drawing a large crowd to the recruitment event.
On the day of the event, the venue buzzed with numerous attendees. Many were unfamiliar with Skyline Group from Inewood and approached cautiously, driven more by curiosity than genuine interest.
Ashton arrived early, blending in with the crowd to gauge their impressions of his new company.

Before the proceedings could officially start, the Marquez brothers stirred up trouble again. This time, Beal sent Dewey Ballard, a well-known hiring manager from Sup Group, on a mission to snatch away promising candidates. Beal had a straightforward strategy: if he couldn’t operate openly, he would work from the shadows.
Dewey was tasked with sabotaging Ashton by presenting unusually favorable conditions.
“Hello, job seekers. I’m Dewey from Sup Group. We’ve noticed that many talented individuals in the antique market are looking for opportunities. As it happens, our company is rapidly expanding and urgently needs skilled people. That’s why I’m here today—to offer you a chance to join Sup Group. We provide a starting salary of ten thousand dollars plus performance bonuses. With us, skilled workers can easily take home over thirty thousand dollars a month p>
Dewey’s proposal immediately caught the attention of many attendees. As a well-established business in Staville, Sup Group’s terms were far more lucrative than those offered by the nascent subsidiary of Skyline Group. Additionally, Sup Group boasted longstanding industry connections and resources that the Skyline Group subsidiary simply couldn’t match.
