When Levi ignored her jab at him, Lauren immediately softened her tone, changing tactics. “Oh well, no matter what, we grew up together Levi. I’m like a sister to you, am I not? You’ll come for my wedding no matter what, right?”
Lauren had wanted Levi to attend her wedding so that he would realize that choosing Zoey over her was the biggest mistake of his life!
“Mm, alright. I’ll definitely attend your wedding!”
Although he felt nauseated by the current Lauren, she was still his childhood betrothed, and he had regarded her as a younger sister.
Since she was going to get married, he would attend her wedding just for the sake of it.
Lauren nodded in satisfaction. “Don’t forget to dress up nicely too!”
“Mm. I wish you happiness!” Levi offered her a bland smile.
“I…” Lauren hesitated for a brief moment.
Truth be told, she didn’t have any feelings for Lee Jung-jin.
Nonetheless, because of his status as Park Cheon-shin’s nephew, as well as his competency, Lauren had agreed to marry him.
She wanted to gain more power for herself, as well as for her family so that they could become a noble family.
Park Cheon-shin suggested a marriage between her and his nephew because he saw her potential.
Once Lauren became his daughter-in-law, all of Triple Group’s assets would be his to control.
In fact, he had wanted to kick Horace out of Triple Group a long time ago.
However, the higher-ups from the headquarters did not allow that, because the position could only be occupied by a capable Erudian.
Coincidentally, Horace had been showing poor work performance as of recently. Thus, Park Cheon-shin successfully had him sacked and allowed Lauren to replace him.
Lauren was currently so excited that she had immediately called her father, Isaac. “Dad, guess what? I ran into Levi Garrison! He has promised to attend my wedding!”
“Hahaha! Really? That’s wonderful! We’ll show him exactly who the Fletchers are, along with how outstanding my daughter is! He’s the one who isn’t worthy of you! Damn that piece of trash!”
Isaac shared his daughter’s excitement.
He wanted Levi to witness Lauren’s monumental wedding and regret his choice back then!
“Ms. Fletcher, everything is ready! Please, have a seat,” informed her assistant.
At the same time, Levi moved to take his seat, across from hers.
Lauren glanced at Levi with disdain gleaming in her eyes and proclaimed, “The negotiation has officially begun! I’m sure that you know the current situation. I want to hear your take on it…”
“Sure. Then, I’ll go ahead first!”
With that, Levi got down to business. “Firstly, Triple Group must pay back the 80 billion that they’ve stolen from Scott Yates’ faction. This huge sum of money is supposed to be for the development of Quebec! Triple Group isn’t allowed to do anything until the money has been paid.”
Before anyone could react, he continued, “Secondly, make a public apology and confess to all the crimes that Triple Group has committed over these past few years.”
“Thirdly, Triple Group must either get lost from Erudia, or follow its laws.”
“These three points are what I want to bring across.”
After Levi was done saying his piece, silence blanketed the room.
Lauren was dumbfounded.
Everyone had varying expressions on their faces.
Even Seth was wearing a look of utter disbelief on his face.
Aren’t you going a little overboard, Mr. Garrison?
Everyone knows that Quebec is dominated by Triple Group now.
Nonetheless, he spoke such arrogant words!
Did he just tell Triple Group to get lost?
Has he gone mad?
Who in Quebec has the balls to do what he has just done?
It took Lauren a whole minute to return to her senses.
“Levi, what nonsense are you spouting? When did Triple Group steal 80 billion from Scott Yates? Where did you hear that rumor?” Lauren angrily rebuked.
She was, in fact, shocked on the inside.
How did he know?
“Rumor? Hahaha…” Levi burst out laughing.
Has Lauren become as shameless as Triple Group too?
“The truth will always come to light. Triple Group shouldn’t assume that their shady dealings will remain hidden forever! That money was specially gathered to support the construction and development of Quebec! Unfortunately, Triple Group had the guts to take that money. How preposterous!”
