Starting with A Divorce

Chapter 478

Chapter 478 Businessman

The colleagues behind Kaitlin looked nervously at her and anxiously tugged at the corner of her clothes.

*Sir, we have already made a great concession about this proposal. You are also a businessman, so you naturally know how much my side will lose to give up on a percentage of profit.”

She believed that she had already made the greatest concession. She did not understand why he was still dissatisfied.

While she was still shilly-shallying, the man looked at the people behind her. “Ms. Baldry, have you ever thought that the reason for the failure of today’s cooperation was because of you?”

“Me? Why do you say that?”

“Ms. Baldry, you have offended someone you should not have offended. After that, my company won’t cooperate with your company anymore.”

Kaitlin’s face was pale, and these words had already been heard by the people behind her.

When she had left Virginia Mason Hospital, she had been thinking about how Irene would take revenge. She was like a stray dog and wasn’t able to avenge herself.

Now she understood, but it was too late.

“So, you mean I offended Irene, right?”

Theodore nodded, his eyes cold.

“Ms. Baldry, take care of yourself.”

After saying that, Theodore stood up and turned to leave.

Kaitlin had not recovered from the shock for a long time. She did not even need to turn around to feel the resentment from her colleagues.

They had worked overtime all night to make this proposal. The reason for their failure was not because of the proposal itself but because of one person.

A person who had been offended by Kaitlin.. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Theodore’s words were like a slap that hit Kaitlin’s face ruthlessly. She would definitely be mocked by Kaliyah and Lindsay.

Sure enough, just as she returned home, Kaliyah asked, “Kaitlin, how is the project? Did you successfully sign it?”

Kaitlin looked nervously at Cason. He was reading a newspaper in the living room. It was unknown if he did not want to pay attention to her or if he already knew the outcome.

“Mom, Cason, I failed,” she said dejectedly.

Lindsay was not surprised. She quickly said, “I already said that you are not suitable for doing business. It is better to listen to Kaliyah and get the dividends directly.”

Kaliyah also said, “That’s right, Kaitlin. You should feel happy that someone helps you take care of the company.”

Kaitlin’s expression suddenly changed. She knew that the two would say that. She casually glanced at Cason and found that he had no intention of speaking, thus she said, “Cason has already handed over my shares to me. I have already signed it.”

“What?” Kaliyah was stunned.

Lindsay did not think that Cason would act so quickly. “When did this happen?”

Kaitlin immediately said, “Probably the day before yesterday.”

“Why did you discuss such an important decision with us?” Lindsay asked with a cold face.

Those shares belonged to Kaitlin, und now I just returned them to her,” Cason, who had not spoken for a long time, finally spoke.

“Cason, you have to at least discuss it with me,” Kaliyah said with an unreadable expression.

“There’s no need. Dad left the shares to her. Then I had to give them to her,” Cason said in earnest. After saying this, he turned around and went upstairs.

As for Kaillin, ever since she left the madhouse, she had not paid much attention to her mother’s and Kaliyah’s feelings.

Seeing their expressions change, Kaitlin laughed mockingly and returned to her room.

Daniel was drinking in the bar, looking at beauties in the pool with Airy sitting next to him.

It was obvious that the woman had not appeared in front of Manuel for a while. She was very tactful and would not do bad things when she was not called.

Aaden respectfully stood aside and reported the recent events.

When they arrived at the Wade’s home, Aaden was a little hesitant.

“Speak.”

“Mr. Hume, we have been filling up the deficits of the Wade Group over the past few days. However, it is a drop in the bucket….

“We could help them for one month or two, but how about two months later? Moreover, you know the current situation of the Wade Group better than I do. When a company has something to do with murder, it is not far from going bankrupt,” Aaden said solemnly.

Daniel knew that he was right, but this was a deal between him and Irene.

“I will think about it carefully,” Daniel said seriously.

Irene parked the car in Ainsley’s neighborhood. She did not know what clothes Ainsley was wearing and which floor she lived on.

However, she saw the Cayenne at a glance. It was Manuel’s car.

She gulped and watched helplessly as Ainsley got into Manuel’s car.

Along the way, she was focused on following Manuel and letting her imagination run wild.

For the past two days, she had been following these two people.

She was suffering, and all she saw was how the two got close to each other. Manuel went to and off work to pick up Ainsley, just to confirm her safety. In the consultation room, it was soon time for school to end.

The notification sound rang. Ainsley did not even need to check the message to know who sent it.

Manuel should be at the school gate now. She suddenly felt that she was a fool. She kept telling Matteo and Manuel that she did not need anyone to pick her up. She could go home by herself.

But after what happened last time, she was finally a little afraid.

She was no longer so disgusted with Manuel’s service.

Just as she walked out of the house, she saw a familiar car. “Aisy, this is for you.”

“What?” Ainsley saw him hand over an exquisite box.

Manuel opened the box, and she found that it was a watch.

“I’ll put it on for you.”

He gently put the watch on her wrist and touched the mirror. “There is a positioning system in this watch. As long as you touch this button, it will automatically send your real-time location to me.”

Ainsley looked at the walch and nodded, accepting it.

Neither of them expected that this scene had been noticed by others.

Irene sat in her car, unwillingly hitting the steering wheel.

She had never seen Manuel like this. He was gentle and delicate, and his gaze was as gentle as water when he looked at Ainsley.

He helped her put on the watch, opened the door for her, and fastened her seat belt.

He had done everything skillfully, but he had never done anything for her.

Late at night, Irene went to the bar to get drunk.

When she returned to Daniel’s house, she smelled of alcohol.

“Why do you get so drunk?” Daniel frowned slightly.

Irene lay on his body and begged, “Daniel, help me. I can’t live without the Wade Group. I can’t live without them. Once the Wade Group goes bankrupt, I will be torn apart by some people immediately. They don’t hate me for a day or two.”

Daniel wanted to agree, but he thought of Aaden’s words.

He was a businessman, not a philanthropist.

He could help Irene, but he couldn’t fund her when he knew his help would have no end.
