Chapter 1487
“If it weren’t for you, we would still have our jobs! You’re nothing but a curse. The damage you’ve caused is enormous!”
“The news about Wendy and Abelard was all over the place yesterday, and she still had the audacity to show up at the office. She has no shame…“..
“You’re a real witch. You know that? You should drop dead!”
Everything that could be thrown, that could humiliate a person, was hurled at Wendy.
The security guards outside the company saw everything but didn’t lift a finger. They hated Wendy too.
Earning a living was hard, and even though the company belonged to the Alonso family, the employees were the ones who worked their butts off.
The Alonso family may have been cashing in the big bucks, but at least they had money to live on. With the current situation, the employees could hardly make ends meet. Wendy sure knew how to bring bad luck.
Grace wanted to protect Wendy, but the barrage of garbage was too much for her to handle. She was covered in all sorts of foul–smelling stuff, nearly passing out on the spot.
“What are you waiting for? Are you blind? Can’t you see we’re being bullied? Are you all dead to the world?” Having had enough, Grace let the security guards have it.
Hearing her harsh words, the guards exchanged glances and decided to just watch from the sidelines.
Grace pointed at them; fuming, “You… You’re all rebels…”
Wendy was in her wheelchair, enduring the pain in her arms as she shielded her face. But two hands were no match for the onslaught. In no time at all, she was buried in so much trash.
The insults, the pain, and the stench of the garbage all twisted Wendy’s face into a grimace.
She was seething. Damn these people! Damn them all!!!
She glared at them with a hateful look, wishing she could kill them all.
The entrance was crowded with angry people, and the security guards just stood by. Helpless, Grace had no choice but to take Wendy back to the office. Under the disdainful gazes of everyone, Grace and Wendy walked into Cole’s office once again. The office was still a mess, and Grace and Wendy, looking haggard and smelling terrible, appeared out of the blue.
Cole glared at them, seeing their ugly side time and time again, not knowing what to say. He considered all this rage a waste of time.
As soon as Grace saw Cole, she burst into tears. “Cole, those people went too far! Look at what they’ve done to us!”
Cole looked at her. “Feeling sorry for yourself, huh? Who do you think is to blame for all this? Wendy is your daughter, and you made her into a jinx! Now you complain about people being too harsh? You had it coming!”
At Cole’s words, Grace burst into even more tears. “Cole, Wendy is our child! Why is it always my fault when something goes wrong? You’re her father too…”
“So I’ve sunk the Alonso Corporation! If I weren’t Wendy’s father, how would the Alonso Corporation end up like this?!!” Cole suddenly shouted, and Grace closed her eyes, too scared to utter a word.
Then Wendy spoke calmly, “The company hasn’t gone under yet, right? We’ve lost twenty billion, but we can borrow from Ava! She promised us before, she can’t go back on her word now! The twenty billion was lost by Rhys, which is different from the twenty billion Ava promised us! Did you talk to my aunt?”
“Are you dumb? Didn’t you watch Rhys‘ press conference? He said he wouldn’t consider investing anymore, didn’t you get that?!”
“So you’re not going to fight for it?!” Wendy immediately fired back at Cole.
Cole slammed his hand on the table. “You idiot! Do you understand what Rhys meant? Princess Ava originally promised this, and Rhys was just following orders. If nothing had really happened, do you think he would dare pull out the investment, and even say he wouldn’t invest for a long time?! Do you think the world revolves around you? Just because you’re short of money, and others have to invest in you?!”
“But the investment was promised by Ava! I won’t allow her to go back on her word!! The people of the Alonso family are all counting on her. How dare she let me down at this critical moment?!”
Cole looked at Wendy with a frown, as if looking at a monster. “You’re out of your mind.”
Staring at Cole in the eye, Wendy said clearly, “I will not give up the Alonso Corporation so easily, and I do not believe that the big Alonso Corporation will really go bankrupt because of Chloe!”
“The company’s market value is continuously falling, and no one in the stock market is willing to take over its shares. What can you do?!”
“If there’s no money, go find money! I have Ava, and even if Ava doesn’t work, there’s the Harper Group! Yes, the Harper Group. You helped Robin a lot to become the chairman! Now, asking him for help shouldn’t be a problem, right? And Presley is always loyal and sentimental. If you ask him for help, he definitely won’t refuse!”
Grace suddenly came to a realization, clapping her hands in approval. “That’s right, we still have the support of the Harper family, right? Now that the Alonso family is going through hard times, if they are willing to help us, then there’s no problem!”
Cole furrowed his brows, deep in thought.
Wendy knew the Harper family was their last hope. “I’ll go ask Presley for help right now.”
Cole didn’t object.
The plane landed at the private terminal of P City International Airport. After a long flight, Chloe, who was sleeping, woke up due to the slight jolt of the landing.
Damon was gently patting Chloe’s body, hoping the plane’s landing wouldn’t wake her. But Chloe still woke up.
“Awake yet?”
Chloe obviously wasn’t fully awake, didn’t really feel like talking, and just blinked.
