Chapter 358
She paused for a second, a malicious glint flickering in her eyes.
“Shouldn’t it be a relief that my sister is safe and sound? But why in the end, are me and Pulse Entertainment the ones who got hit hard?”
Her complaint, full of pain, only fueled Carolina’s already burning anger.
She knew all too well that Chloe always liked to work against Keira. If there was no issue between them, that would be just great. But why did it turn out that Keira and Pulse Entertainment were the ones left to deal with the mess?
She had seen Chloe’s tactics. Now, things have gone this far, it seems like Chloe had been scheming all along!
However, the complexity of the situation didn’t give her much time to think, as the office phone started to ring
“Ms. Petry, all the major companies are calling to withdraw their investments…”
The incessant ringing of the phone echoed in her ears. Carolina’s heart pounded fiercely. She hung up the phone, propped her hand on her forehead, completely drained.
“Mom, are you okay?” Viviana asked, watching Carolina’s weary figure, a wave of concern washing over her.
Right now, the whole Summers family was practically being held up by Carolina. With everything in such chaos, if she were to collapse, wouldn’t everything fall apart?
Carolina leaned back in her chair, her eyes closed tiredly, “First, let’s send Keira abroad”
Hearing this, Keira’s eyes widened in panic, “No, I don’t want to go abroad! Grandma, are you going to abandon me overseas just like you did with my sister…”
Carolina’s eyes snapped open, her aged eyes full of bloodshot veins, “Just lay low for a while! How are you going to face the media otherwise?!”
Keira’s face turned pale, her hands clenched tight as her body shook uncontrollably.
With a choked voice, she looked at Carolina, her face full of heartbreak.
“Grandma, don’t you trust me either? How could I possibly hurt my sister? How could L.. I understand the current situation of Pulse Entertainment. It’s not just important to you, it’s also where I can realize my dreams. Even if I have grievances against my sister, I wouldn’t gamble with the Summers family’s reputation and Pulse Entertainment’s future, grandma…”
Carolina frowned slightly, a glint of deep thought in her eyes.
Seeing this, Viviana quickly said, “That’s right, mom. Keira’s right. Other than you, she’s probably the one who cares most about Pulse Entertainment. How could she cause trouble for Pulse Entertainment? It’s Chloe, she’s always been displeased with us. You saw it at the last anniversary party, she deliberately made things difficult for us and Pulse Entertainment!”
Carolina pinched the bridge of her nose, her eyes narrowing a bit, “The real cu’prit!”
Seeing Carolina’s mood gradually calming down, Viviana continued, “Mom, there’s always a solution to everything. Don’t worry for now. I think the most urgent issue is the company’s financial situation. We need to solve this asap. Should we negotiate with Chloe? The Starlight International office building is in the best location in the city. The market price is nearly a billion…”
Carolina said helplessly. “That Starlight International was a gift to her from Yasmine. She made it clear last time at the Summers family gathering. You want me to negotiate with her, you’re trying to send me to my grave sooner, aren’t you?”
Viviana seemed a bit troubled, “The situation is urgent, I’m just looking for solutions…”
Carolina shook her head, “That girl won’t compromise anytime soon, and Pulse Entertainment can’t wait…”
With that, Carolina paused for a moment, suddenly looking at Keira, “Have you contacted Lance?”
Keira was taken aback, then shook her head, “No.”
Carolina nodded, her tone softened, “Since it’s a misunderstanding, go and clear things up with him. No man can stand to see his woman hurt, go explain it to him…..”
The implication in those last few words “explain it to him” was subtle, but those who could understand, would understand.
Keira bit her lip and nodded, “I understand, grandma. Once Lance calms down, I’ll see if the Olson family can help Pulse Entertainment.”
Carolina nodded in satisfaction, “You’re the smartest, most sensible one.”
At the school’s hotel.
Chloe was looking at the news all over the internet, but something felt off
The reporters that came tonight were all invited by the school from well-known magazines. However, the news online was everywhere. She couldn’t help but turn to look at Damon, “Is this… your doing?”
