Her Seven Little Bodyguards

Chapter 137

Moreover, I live at Haling Villa, not the Greyson Residence. I see that he still loves to order people

around. She said mockingly, “I don’t think there’s anything to talk about, though. Linda, send our guests

off.”

George was used to Linda and Melanie’s obedience. His word was the law at home, and no one would

go against him. Vania chasing him off right in front of her own assistant was humiliating for him, and he

roared, “You don’t get to say no!”

He raised his hand against her, but Vania saw through him. She held his hand and flung it away.

“You’re at my company, not your house.” She then gave him a warning glare and continued, “You don’t

get to do as you please here. Are you going to leave, or should I get someone to help escort you out?”

Vania stopped Melanie and George from getting any high ground, and they failed to bring up the

investment demand.

Melanie quickly played the victim right in front of her father. “Vania, I know you’re angry, but he’s your

father. You can’t do this to him.”

Vania crossed her arms and stared at them coldly. They’re not here just to ask me over for dinner. I bet

they’re going to ask for my help so that Melanie can stay with Hanson. As such, Vania kept quiet. She

was waiting for the other shoe to drop.

In the end, it was Melanie who relented. She kept on the victim act and condemned Vania by saying,

“Vania, you’re a part of the family. The company is in trouble now, and you should help Dad out. You

can’t just stand by and watch us go broke. Please, I beg you.” Melanie was playing the victim to make

Vania look like an oppressor. Dad’s going to hate her even more, and he’ll never take her back now.

Oh, so that’s why. The mockery in Vania’s eyes was getting palpable. This crisis didn’t show up out of

nowhere; it started right after Mom died. The company only managed to look successful because it had

a strong foundation and lots of resources to lean into. In fact, they managed to last this long because

Luke Corporation injected a lot of funds because of Melanie.

However, Melanie was also the reason why Greyson Realty’s share prices had dipped. Luke

Corporation did not inject any more funds, and it put them in a precarious situation. They were deep in

the red now, and bankruptcy was imminent unless they had more funds coming in.

George isn’t fit to be a leader. He’s arrogant and stubborn, so how did he manage to build a company?

Also, why did Mom fall for him? She felt sorry for her mother, for the woman had fallen for a piece of

sc*m like George back then.

Meanwhile, Vania’s company had a mountain of resources. She could save ten companies like

Greyson Realty if she wanted to, but she refused. She had cut all ties with the Greyson Family, and

Melanie’s fake plea disgusted her. She said coldly, “I’m running a business here, not a charity.”
