Eva swept a cold glance across everyone in the meeting room and said coldly, “All of you can go. Stay back, Candy. I have something I need you to do.”“Yes, Miss Lane.”Candy responded while her fingers continued tapping on the keyboard. All the higher management employees stood up to leave the meeting room. Nathan quickly went over to Candy.His movement was very quick, and he immediately pulled her hands away from the keyboard. Candy looked at him in astonishment as he pressed down on the laptop.“Maybe none of you should leave.”Nathan said to Eva, “It’s better than you announce this to everyone here.”Announce this?Eva wanted to object to this but nodded when she saw the stern look on Nathan’s face. She got everyone to return to their seats.Everyone took their seats, and Nathan placed Candy’s laptop in front of Eva. There was a secret mailbox on the screen that Candy was trying to clean out, but she did not manage to delete it in time.Eva read the contents of the emails
“What happened this time?”Renee looked at her angrily and yelled, “We’re already embroiled in a lawsuit. What else could be worse than that? Speak up properly. What are you being so flustered about?”Her secretary was startled by her sudden outburst. She quickly nodded her head in a fluster and forced herself to calm down before reporting to Renee and Camden.“Miss Skrull, Mr. Skrull, our lawsuit with Lane Enterprise has been exposed. There's public outcry and demand for an update on this case. They're demanding for Jadora to be punished, and the news is now trending online. "Many people are talking about this. You should read it for yourself. The media is refusing our request to stop the news from going out.”Renee's and Camden’s expressions turned pale when they heard this. They quickly turned on their laptops and phones.They went online and clicked on the trending news. What appeared was their lawsuit with Lane Enterprise.Details had been outlined, and there was also ment
Candy’s hand trembled slightly as she looked at the card in her hand.“Mr. Langley, Miss Lane, what is this?”“Ten million.”Nathan said coldly to her, “You’re worth more than this with a talent like yours. Camden doesn’t recognize talent when he sees one, and you shouldn’t belittle yourself so much.”There was a look of pity in his eyes, and even Eva was looking at her the same way. Candy was astounded. She held the card in her hand blankly.This was a bank card that did not require a name printed on it. She knew about this card as she often managed business operations. Anyone with a card like this could withdraw money from the bank.Nathan and Eva had given her one.Candy stood quietly where she was. The little card in her hand suddenly felt heavy.All words sounded pointless now.Nathan and Eva sat lazily on the couch and refused to budge after they returned to Thriving Dragon Bay. The children approached them happily to perform their talents, but Nathan and Eva were too ex
Sophia quickly regained her confidence with encouragement from Eva and Nathan.She inhaled gently and said to both of them, “Mr. Langley, Eva, I’ll make sure to work harder. The arson case is still being investigated, but we’ll have some results soon. Camden was only fined this time, and his company will suffer a loss at most. "He doesn’t lack money, and it won’t be much of a blow to him. But if he has anything to do with the fire, we can definitely make sure he goes to prison!”Eva smiled approvingly at this. “That sounds good.”Nathan listened quietly but was smiling with satisfaction.Sophia was a rare talent.Whatever happened this time would make her even more careful at work. Eva felt good about having Sophia look over Lane Enterprise.…Meanwhile, at Rose Hotel in Cloud City, a man and a woman were sitting on a bed in a room on the second floor. It was exquisitely decorated, and there was a light, fragrant scent inside. It was supposed to be a moment of passion betwee
A few minutes later, Mrs. Wilson returned to the kitchen with a piece of paper in her hand.“This was given to me by the chef, Mrs. Langley. It’s a recipe for dinner that I can try out tonight. The chef said that making this will earn me some brownie points with my employers.” The chef left that behind?Eva grabbed the recipe and looked at it carefully. She was taken aback to see red wine-poached pear on the menu.This dish required a huge amount of red wine. After it was cooked, it would taste fragrant and sweet with only a slight tinge of alcohol. Max and Mia enjoyed it.However, Max had a sore throat and had just taken some antibiotics. He could not have anything with alcohol after taking the medication as it might create a Disulfiram-like reaction that might be lethal.This was Wanda’s ruthless plan!Eva felt a chill on her back. She knew that Wanda was giving her a warning that she had to do as Wanda said.That she-devil!Eva bit hard on her lip. She could not control he
Nathan was being honest.After the trial ended and Jadora was out of the picture, the floral series became a hot commodity in the market. Client demand had soared several times over.“The cosmetics market yields a high profit, and Langley Corporation has always wanted a piece of the pie. But Lane Enterprise got into it first. If you’re agreeable, I would love it if our companies could work on it together.”Moreover, they were husband and wife.Nathan would not be able to trust another business partner completely, but it was different with Eva.When Eva saw the adoring look in his eyes, her decision to get him to invest began to waver.Did she really want to do what Wanda said?Even though she had no idea what Wanda wanted, she was sure that Wanda wanted to attack Langley Corporation. She would be relentless about it.Getting Eva to obtain shares from Langley Corporation might be the first step in Wanda’s plan to destroy Nathan.Eva could not allow this!She clenched her teeth
Scott chatted with everyone for a while before pulling Nathan away to talk in private.“I need help, Nathan.”Scott said to him in a low voice, “What should I do when meeting the parents for the first time?”Meeting the parents?Nathan looked at him in astonishment. When he saw how serious Scott was and how he did not look like he was joking, Nathan began to advise him carefully about this. “You need to make this grand and prepare gifts that they like. Also, be polite and respectful. Any other things are fine. The most important thing to do is to leave them with a good impression.”“Alright.”Scott made a note of everything Nathan said. Nathan smiled teasingly when he saw how seriously Scott was taking this. “Why are you so anxious about this?”“Of course, I am. She’s perfect in every way. I don’t want to lose her.”Scott’s eyes were filled with adoration and happiness when he replied this. Nathan felt happy for Scott when he saw Scott looking this way.As long as Scott was
Eva did not notice Rose. All she did was clench her phone tight.She was waiting for Wanda’s answer.Why did she want Eva and Nathan to have cross-shareholding? Even if she did that, she would only own 5% of Langley Corporation’s shares. Why did Wanda want her to become a shareholder of Langley Corporation?Multiple questions appeared in her mind, and Eva felt like her head was about to explode. However, she took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down as she listened quietly.Wanda was silent for a few minutes before saying coldly.“You don’t need to know the reason.”A simple sentence was enough to destroy Eva’s hope. She clenched her teeth and forced herself to calm down as she growled at Wanda.“What did the Langleys ever do to you? You’ve been plotting all of this from the very start. Are you trying to use me against the Langleys?” Wanda sneered when she heard this. “You guessed right.”Her laugh was cold. It was like a dagger that stabbed right through Eva’s heart
