When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 649

Chapter 649 Teach Them A Lesson
With things as they were, it became quite difficult for Cecilia to ask the mothers for their help.

Just when Cecilia was worried, deep in thought about what to do next, Mason added, “However, the money they've invested would go to waste. It won't last for long. Mrs. Rainsworth, if you have a friend who's part of the group, do everything you can to stop her from investing.”

Upon hearing those words, Cecilia instantly perked up.

“Really? Why are you so sure it will be a wasted effort?”

Nathaniel replied before Mason could say anything, “Adrian wants to establish a group purchasing business, primarily focusing on fresh vegetables. Not only are these items hard to store, but the shipping costs alone would be a significant expense. Moreover, he's facing stiff competition from many other companies. Rather than a competition, they're actually engaged in a race to capture the market by spending as much money as possible. These companies aim to attract customers with the lowest prices, drive out other businesses, and ultimately monopolize the market.”

He paused for a moment, refraining from mentioning that his own company was also involved in this line of work.

Items like groceries directly affected people's livelihoods. Given the size of the market in Tudela, it would spell disaster for the people if any one company monopolized the market.

Recently, Cecilia had also noticed that there were options to buy fresh vegetables as a group purchase, which made the cost exceptionally low.

“Group purchasing seems to be all the rage now, but I don't think it's sustainable if it's messing with people's basic necessities,” said Cecilia.

Upon hearing this, Nathaniel was taken aback. He truly hadn't expected that Cecilia would also notice that.

“Yes, that's why I said it wouldn't last long.”

Mason was shocked when he heard that too.

Did Mr. Rainsworth just agree with Mrs. Rainsworth that it won't be sustainable? Then why is he competing with Adrian at a loss?

After all, the project had cost them a considerable amount of money. If they couldn't earn it back, it would be a pure loss.

“Jon's preschool is having an election to choose the president of the parents' association tomorrow. I'm considering running as well. Mr. Sanders, can you possibly give me all the data you have about the group purchasing industry?”

Cecilia believed that since Mason had mentioned it, he must have gathered a lot of information.

She intended to use the information to let the group of mothers know how unreliable Miranda's business was.
