Chapter 1270 Nothing More Than a Lapdog

03%

After the press conference, he went straight back to the company with his bruised body instead of

going home because there was a woman who wanted to see him!

“Mr. Verkade, you’re back? Ms. Zelinsky is in your office!”

Alani Hurst was Gautier’s personal female assistant and also one of his admirers. She was surprised to

see him in his current state!

She had never seen the assertive Gautier look so disheveled and exhausted. It seemed that everything

that happened at the press conference was true. Did he really fail to win the woman from another man?

Gautier didn’t pay any attention to Alani. He walked straight into his office and found Hattie sitting in his

chair, with Dominique standing behind her.

His office was filled with black-clad bodyguards.

All of them belonged to Hattie!

The scene was extravagant and shocking!

“Ms. Zelinsky, how dare you… sit in Mr. Verkade’s seat? This is-”

“Someone, go and slap her!”

Before Alani could finish her sentence, Dominique immediately gave a cold order.

“Yes!”

A black-clad bodyguard stepped forward and slapped Alani hard across the face.

Alani’s fair and tender face immediately swelled up like a bun. She looked helplessly at Gautier, hoping

that he would come to her rescue.

Little did she expect that he didn’t even look at her. Instead, he smiled at Hattie and asked, “Ms.

Zelinsky, what can I do for you?”

“Stop there!” Dominique called out coldly to him again with a proud and icy gaze. “How dare a disloyal

dog like you come near Ms. Zelinsky?”

Gautier’s expression faltered slightly, but he quickly regained his smiling face.

Even Alani could tell that Gautier’s smile now was extremely awkward. She had never seen him in

such a humble state before!

“Gautier, you have quite the audacity!”

Hattie finally said something and revealed her stunningly beautiful oval face. Yet, it instilled a sense of

fear that made one’s heart tremble.

“Ms. Zelinsky, I don’t understand what you mean.”

Gautier continued to smile, but beads of sweat had started to form on his forehead.

Hattie didn’t bother to play along and said directly, “The Verkade family’s collaboration with the Zelinsky

family generates an annual revenue of over 1.2 billion, with profits exceeding 150 million. If the Zelinsky

family were to withdraw their investment and terminate the collaboration what consequences do you

think the Verkade family.

made one’s heart tremble.

“Ms. Zelinsky, I don’t understand what you mean.”

Gautier continued to smile, but beads of sweat had started to form on his forehead.

Hattie didn’t bother to play along and said directly, “The Verkade family’s collaboration with the Zelinsky

family generates an annual revenue of over 1.2 billion, with profits exceeding 150 million. If the Zelinsky

family were to withdraw their investment and terminate the collaboration, what consequences do you

think the Verkade family would face?”

“Ms. Zelinsky, haven’t we always had a pleasant collaboration? Why are you saying this-”

“Shut up!”

Before he could finish his sentence, Dominique interrupted him coldly.

Gautier immediately dared not speak any further.

At this moment, Alani’s heart was incredibly shaken!

In her eyes, Hattie was the queen!

Only a queen could turn the assertive Gautier into an ordinary man who was humble to this extent!

“The collaboration has indeed been relatively pleasant, but you have made me very unhappy!”

Hattie immediately spoke up, “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. You actually want to join

forces with the enemies of the Zelinsky family? Are you trying to get rid of the Zelinsky family?

Unfortunately, things don’t always go as planned. Your self-directed drama still hasn’t won Mackenzie’s

favor. You’re truly useless!”

Upon listening to such a scathing insult, Gautier looked quite unpleasant at the moment, no matter how

composed he was, but he dared not speak.

Hattie continued, “If we were to end our cooperation with the Verkade family immediately, we might

experience a small loss, but that would be insignificant for the Zelinsky family. However, have you

considered the consequences for the Verkade family? It could be disastrous for you!”

Gautier finally managed a bitter smile.

He knew very well that Hattie was not making empty threats. If the Zelinsky family were to terminate

their cooperation with the Verkade family, the Verkade family would undoubtedly suffer a severe blow,

even if it didn’t collapse immediately!

The Verkade family also relied heavily on the Zelinsky family for their business. If the Zelinsky family

were to use their influence through the chamber of commerce to suppress the Verkade family, it would

be the end for them!

After all, the Verkade family was not like the Quillen family. They didn’t possess the Heart of the Sun,

nor did they have independent and unique business autonomy!

“Ms. Zelinsky, there’s really no need for this! The Verkade family has always been a loyal partner to the

Zelinsky family-”

“Partner?”

Hattie immediately interrupted with a cold laugh. “Mr. Verkade, have you misjudged the situation? You

are nothing more than a lapdog that the Zelinsky family keeps in Yeringham!”
