Mandy frowned, and glared coldly at Elodie. “What? You’ve never seen a pretty lady before?”
Elodie pridefully waved the contract in her hand.
“This is a contract worth fifteen million dollars! It belongs to the Foster family!
“For the company right now, this thing is life-saving!
“Are you sure the board of directions won’t kick you out tomorrow after knowing that this exists? Surely they aren’t stupid, right?”
Elodie showed a threatening expression, and strutted out of the office.
“You get one more day, Mandy!
“There’ll be a different person in that seat of yours tomorrow!”
The door was slammed shut.
Mandy’s eyes twitched. Her beautiful face was filled with nothing but sorrow.
She stood; after a long time, she let out a soundless sigh.
She was exhausted.
After stumbling out of the office, she took a deep breath to regain her calm.
Ten minutes later, in front of the company’s entrance…
Harvey was just about to walk in when Mandy came out, looking pale.
“You’re getting off this early? Are you done being a workaholic?”
Harvey showed an odd expression, and approached her in worry.
“Did something happen?”
Mandy froze; when she finally recognized Harvey’s face, she forced out a smile.
“It’s you…
“It’s nothing. I’ve been dealing with the company for a while. It’s been quite a headache…
“I’m a little tired today. I need some rest…”
Harvey smiled.
“It’s not just that, is it?
“Is someone forcing you out of your position?
“I heard that Elodie has a fifteen-million-dollar contract.
“That contract’s crucial for the company right now, isn’t it?”
Mandy chuckled bitterly.
“That’s right. You’re not to blame, though; don’t put this to heart.
“Even without the Foster family, Elodie has other ways to force me out.
“She came with her mother because of this.”
Naturally, Mandy didn’t want Harvey to think that this all happened because of him provoking Brayan.
“Another thing. Elodie would probably replace me tomorrow…
“Head of the ninth branch. Heh, heh…”
Mandy chuckled helplessly. She knew exactly how much she was worth in the Jean family, after all.
Harvey frowned, and put away the contract. This was probably a chance for Mandy to break free from the Jean family and build a family of her own.
Harvey chuckled.
“Think of it this way! You can just throw away all this mess to whoever wants to clean it up!
“With your strength, you should be able to establish a company and build a legacy of your own!”
However, Mandy’s eyes showed only despair.
“You don’t get it, Harvey.
“Even if I break free from the Jean family to rebuild…
“In their eyes, my accomplishments are theirs to own!
“They’ll find a way to leech off of me!
“I can at least fight against the Jean family as the head of the ninth branch.
“But without the identity, there’ll be dire consequences…”
