Chapter 1400 - 1394: Just Heard, Not Spread Out Yet
Upon hearing Nathan Moore speak so, Violet Zimmerman’s expression on her face immediately turned serious."Nathan, you’re Evander’s brother. Isn’t what you are doing clearly undermining your aunt? Our Lancaster Family just announced our marriage alliance with the Quinn Family, and you withdraw your investment. Those who know might think you’re standing up for Evander, but to those who don’t, it could seem like our Lancaster Family is backing out!
Nathan, as your aunt, I’m telling you, you can’t do this. This kind of maneuver that harms both the enemy and yourself isn’t beneficial to you or the Quinn Family. Listen to your aunt, don’t be reckless, and quickly transfer the funds to Director Quinn."
Violet Zimmerman spoke righteously but didn’t mention their own family helping with the funding. For the mighty Lancaster Family, billions are just a number. And since she didn’t bring it up, Vanessa Quinn couldn’t directly mention it, sitting beside her, listening to her righteous words, her nails unconsciously embedding into her palm.
Old fox! Trying to subtly express regret.
Hmph! What does she think Vanessa Quinn is?
A plaything to summon and dismiss at will?
Really miscalculated!
Vanessa Quinn secretly vowed in her heart that if Violet Zimmerman refused to help, she would spread what she just heard.
After all, if the Lancaster Family wants to break off the engagement, they can’t blame her!
"Aunt, forgive me for not being able to obey. You know, my parents passed away early and I have no siblings. After all these years, Evander is the only brother I have, and now that he’s asking for my help, as his second brother, it is natural for me to fulfill my duty."
Knowing that Vanessa Quinn was sitting right beside Violet Zimmerman, Nathan Moore deliberately spoke so frankly.
"Why are you so stubborn, child? Then tell me, what would it take for you not to make things difficult for the Quinn Family!" Violet Zimmerman feigned anger as she spoke, and any intelligent listener could tell that she was deliberately leading Nathan’s words for Vanessa Quinn to hear.
"It’s very simple. Have the Quinn Family voluntarily hold a press conference and announce the cancellation of the engagement. Although I will stop cooperating with the Quinn Corporation, I won’t interfere with other companies."
Dream on!
Vanessa Quinn gritted her teeth in her heart but wore an expression of grievance and urgency on her face as she rushed over to grab Violet Zimmerman’s arm, "Aunt, you must help me. We are relatives. You can’t just watch our Quinn Family fall..."
Upon hearing Vanessa Quinn’s plea for help, Nathan Moore’s voice came through the speaker.
"Aunt, may I trouble you to give the phone to Miss Quinn? I have something to say to her!"
"This..." Violet Zimmerman seemed troubled but hesitated for a moment before handing the phone to Vanessa Quinn.
"Director Moore, please speak," Vanessa Quinn took the phone, displaying a weak appearance.
"Vanessa Quinn, since the Quinn Family hasn’t suffered much damage yet, I advise you to quickly announce it to the media, otherwise... heh, even the heavens can’t save you!"
After Nathan Moore left these words, the speaker was filled with a busy tone.
Holding the phone that had been hung up, Vanessa Quinn looked at Violet Zimmerman with grievance, "Aunt..."
"Sigh, this Nathan Moore, what a meddler!" Violet Zimmerman cursed angrily, and just as Vanessa Quinn was about to say something more, Joseph Lancaster, who had been silent on the single-seater sofa, spoke up.
"Sister-in-law, don’t you have another meeting this afternoon? Have you forgotten?"
"Oh dear, isn’t that right? Look at me with my memory!" Violet Zimmerman slapped her thigh and laughed at herself, then turned to Vanessa Quinn, "Vanessa, how about this, you just head back first. I’ll think of a way regarding the company’s matters, or I’ll call that brat back after my meeting and have him speak to Nathan Moore."
Clearly, the two were performing a double act, but Vanessa Quinn was not someone who didn’t understand the situation. Reluctantly, she stood up and said with grievance, "Then, Aunt, you go ahead and get busy. I’ll think of another way."
