Only to see a conflicted expression on her face.Evidently, Mindy had found the key to the problem.It was a choice to sacrifice one of the two, their daughter’s happiness or the luxury they currently enjoyed.There was no third option.“What do we do now, Jon?” Mindy asked.“What else can we do? We have two options, either we sacrifice our daughter’s happiness for everything we have now, or we give everything up and leave Capital City for Shu City in South River Province with our daughter and David. It’s a choice between the potential of reaping profits as the Chasez family’s in-laws, which means better business for you and more promotions for me, or an ordinary life in the county.”“I…” Mindy did not know how to reply for a moment.If she told her daughter to leave David and be with that Hanley person, she knew there was a chance her daughter would comply but also never forgive Mindy for suggesting such a thing. Mindy only had one daughter and she was reluctant to do this to h
On Saturday, David finally saw the message Celia had sent him the previous night.After some consideration, David sent Celia a reply to go on a date since he was rather free these days.Naturally, Celia was elated when she saw the message and almost jumped up in happiness.After asking Celia those questions that morning, Jon and Mindy had both quickly left the house.With that, the younger couple agreed to meet in the largest forest park in Capital City.Then, Celia brought David around to play.The sun was scorching but it did not hinder Celia’s steadfast pace at all as she walked around the park over and over again with David.She made sure to pick spots that did not have many other people as well since she liked the feeling of spending time with David alone.While it might seem like Celia was bringing David around, the truth was that David was spending time with Celia as the latter did the things that she liked.Just like that, the two of them spent the whole day at the par
The employees were asking for their pay and the product users were suing and seeking compensation.This was the terrifying power of a first-rate family in Capital City.The chairman’s office, Beautylish Group headquarters.Despite it being the evening, Mindy and her husband had yet to leave.After a whole day of hard work, not only had they not managed to make a single dollar from selling their shares, but they were now in a huge amount of debt as well.Both of them felt despondent about the future.Their initial desire to lighten Celia’s future financial burden was no longer possible.Not only that, but they were under more financial pressure now.The damages owed to the various clients, compensation for product users, and wages due to the employees all far exceeded Beautylish Group’s existing funds.Not even by filing for bankruptcy or selling the office building could they repay everyone.By the end of this all, the 46% of shares in Mindy’s hands would become a huge financ
Hanley looked at and waited for the two of them to make their decision.As long as both of them agreed, he knew that Celia was too weak-willed to ignore her parents’ sufferings and insist on being with David.Jon and Mindy shared a look. It was just as they had deduced that morning.This heir of the Chasez family was angry and jealous tjat Celia was with David instead of him, and that was why he had targeted them.Mindy was about to ask Hanley to give them some time to consider their options.Only for Jon to interrupt, “My apologies, Mr. Chasez, but Celia has the right to make her own decisions. We may be her parents, but that does not give us the right to make such decisions for her. If she likes you and chooses to be with you, we will not object. If she likes someone else and chooses to be with them instead, we will not object either.”Mindy flushed. She did not expect her husband to decline Hanley so directly. She had already planned to persuade Celia.“Oh? So you’re choosi
Jon and Mindy decided to go home after releasing news that they were selling their shares. They did not hold too much hope, but Mindy received a call from an unknown number not too long after they arrived homeThe other party actually wanted to buy the shares of Beuatylish Group.They were elated by the news.As long as the other party was willing to buy, the Young family would be willing to sell their shares at any price. They were even willing to give the shares away for free.Then, Hugo asked Mindy a question.He wanted to know why the 46% of shares that was worth more than three billion were sold at just five hundred million.Mindy then told him that it was because she accidentally made an enemy of someone she could not afford to, thus she wanted to sell the shares cheaply and leave Capital City. Hugo could feel that there was more to the story, but he still decided to buy the shares. This five hundred million was a small amount to him compared to the tens of billions he
Hanley’s car was a short distance away and he practically dragged Celia over to it.No matter how Celia struggled and shouted, it seemed hopeless. Just as Hanley was about to open the car door and shove Celia inside, someone finally stopped him.Luna had also come out this weekend to buy some things and kill boredom.Women, in general, had an innate enjoyment when shopping, be it fragile girls like Celia or aloof goddesses like Luna.The last thing Luna expected was to see David’s rumored girlfriend Celia holding hands with another man at the entrance of the shopping mall.She originally thought that Celia was two-timing David and decided not to poke her nose into someone else’s problems, but she slowly realized that something was wrong.It was evident that Celia did not want to follow the man who was being dragged away.Something was surely going to happen if the man managed to drag her into the car.Since she was also a woman, Luna found it impossible to leave this matter to
A moment later, the small crowd dispersed.Hanley watched them leave before turning to glare at Luna coldly. “I’d mind my own business if I were you! This isn’t something you can afford to poke your nose into! Be careful before you get yourself and your family in trouble for this.”“Oh? Even more reason for me to poke my nose into this, then! I’d like to see how you plan to get me in trouble,” Luna said with a smile, completely ignoring Hanley’s threat.She might not be the favored child in the Shoron family, but she was still the oldest daughter. It was not that she was underestimating Hanley’s capability, but she would be elated if Hanley had managed to get the Shoron family involved in this.After all, that would break the current impasse.As to what this T Faction was, she did not care about it at all.Zachary was supposed to be one of the eight great fighters of Capital City’s T Faction.Though that was before he made an enemy of someone he should not have and paid the pric
After Hanley left, Luna and Celia were still rooted in place as a crowd gathered far away.“Celia, help me get somewhere quiet,” Luna said.“How about I send you to the hospital instead, Miss? You’re bleeding!” Celia said frantically.“I’m fine, Celia. Let’s go somewhere else.”“Okay, then.”The two of them went somewhere less crowded.“Thank you so much, Miss! Oh, right. How do you know my name?” Celia asked.“I know David and I saw the both of you together before. Call David and ask him to come and fetch you, we don’t know if that person has any other plans and we might not be able to get away if he comes back,” Luna said.“Yeah, okay.”Celia pulled out her phone to call David.David was currently in the bath when Celia called.He had just spent a hundred lavish points he just earned, and his body stats had been enhanced from extraordinary level 5 to 6. He felt slightly heated so he decided to take a cold shower.David was shocked when he heard that Celia had almost gotte
