The moment Ronald heard the voice, he blurted anxiously as if he had found hope. “Fass, my company has been set up by the Lowry Family. I’m wondering if you can help us out.”
Lynette’s eyes glistened as she thought her uncle would surely have a solution for them.
However, Fass said in a deep voice, “Leonard Enterprise has been struck and I’m up the creek too.”
When Ronald heard that, his pupils instantly dilated and he couldn’t even hold his phone properly anymore. “Even Leonard Enterprise has been retaliated against?” he mumbled.
Before Ronald could even think of what to say next, he heard a beeping sound from the phone.
Fass had hung up the call!
“We’re finished!” Ronald slumped to the floor.
His decades of hard work was going down the drain, and he had no one but himself to blame for raising such an arrogant daughter!
“What should we do, Dad?”
Lynette’s eyes became swollen as tears flowed down her face.
If the Shields Family went bankrupt, she would be doomed too because it would be the end to her affluent, comfortable days.
She couldn’t imagine how her life would be in the future and how the peers in Woodsbury University would jeer at her.
Gritting his teeth, Ronald was filled with rage and resentment.
Currently, the best way was to flee from Sandfort City.
“You should go abroad. I’ll ask my assistant to book a flight for you this afternoon. Someone will pick you up at Markovia.”
Ronald hurriedly left after saying these words.
He still had to straighten out the mess in Shields Enterprise and couldn’t bother about other matters anymore.
After so many years of tough grind in Sandfort City, Ronald had no choice but to give up his baby to minimize the damage, and he was filled with grievance at the thought of Shields Enterprise being destroyed by his own daughter.
Bathed in tears, Lynette sat numbly on the floor in a daze as she watched Ronald walk away.
Meanwhile, Janet and Mason got straight into the car after walking out of the training base.
In the car, Janet crossed her legs while checking the notifications on her phone. Suddenly, her eyes glistened as she smiled and raised a brow at the man sitting beside her. “It’s on the news!”
“What?” Mason didn’t get her, so he leaned forward to look at the screen. Then, he smiled delightfully.
On the phone screen was a picture of them at the training base. Standing side by side, the stunning couple was extremely pleasant to look at.
Although there had been some unforeseen circumstances during today’s interview, Mason’s displeasure had greatly subsided after seeing this picture.
“The marks are well covered,” Janet chuckled.
With his eyes darkened, Mason pounced on her and reached out his hand to unbutton Janet’s shirt. “They are disappearing fast. Seems like I shouldn’t have held back.”
Just as Janet was about to react, the phone in her hand started buzzing, followed by a rapid ringtone.
Distracted, she narrowed her eyes and looked down at the screen.
“Hello.”
Janet finally answered the call with an indifferent voice after the phone rang for a while.
“Janet, the condition of the patient in Yobril is not looking good. He just vomited blood and I heard that his situation is rather dire.” Lee’s anxious voice emerged from the other end of the call. Obviously, he was not as calm as Janet.
Janet furrowed her brows. “How did that happen?”
Before this, the patient had already vomited the extravasated blood in his body after she gave him an acupuncture treatment, and by rights, he shouldn’t be vomiting anymore blood if he had taken herbs according to her prescription.
Lee answered, “I have no idea either. By the way, Sheldon said he has messaged you to notify you about it, but you have not replied.”
Biting her lips, Janet replied in a deep voice, “Wait for me at the airport.”
