Chapter 700 The Vinlands' Party “Grandfather and the rest of them are the worst. The joke’s on them, but they can’t stand to see us doing well for ourselves either.” Darcy put down her phone in frustration.
“It’s alright. We don’t have to care. We're not members of the Vinland family anyway.” Trying not to laugh, Kaze consoled her.
The incident was not something to brag about.
Darcy’s family quickly put the matter aside.
They doubted the Quints’ last nchange would affect them.
Soon, the Vinlands held a press conference.
They announced their commercial expansion into Lilyrose.
The Vinlands stated that they would take over Quintessential Group.
The family would also resolve and improve the myriad of issues with the online lending platform and delayed payment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMultiple financial issues arose with the assets acquired by the Quints from the top three families.
The Quints’ inability to straighten things out made matters worse.
The Vinlands’ statement calmed all parties’ fears.
Many companies’ protests ended.
“That's the power of the mega-rich. One announcement E3hil it takes for everybody to believe all problems are solved.” Darcy had been keeping an eye on the news. She sighed.
The things that drove the Quints to desperation were quelled by the Vinlands with the release of one statement.
The Vinlands’ words carried more weight than the hundreds of millions the Quints spent.
Darcy’s family received an invitation delivered by hand.
“The Vinlands learned something from the Lees. We are invited to a banquet at Dynasty Hotel tonight.” +15 BONUS Agnes opened the invitation letter.
She turned to her husband and daughter for their opinion.
Hector said, “We should go. Darcy, your grandmother was good to you. Although we have not stayed in touch with the Vinlands, we are related in a way.” Darcy’s wits won Tanya's adoration and the latter took Darcy under her wing.
That was probably the reason why Master Quint was unreceptive toward Darcy but favored Samus and Deborah after Tanya's passing.
“I think we should attend the party. Since the Vinlands are expanding their business into the city, we will cross paths sooner or later. | don’t see why | should make them enemies.” Darcy had her considerations from a business standpoint.
In the end, they decided the entire family would attend the Vinlands’ party.
Kaze got a call from Winnie, who mentioned Shangrila Group received an invite too.
Winnie was going to take Brenda with her.
After the party, Winnie intended to shop at the hotel's commercial street with her daughter.
Work at Shangrila Group had been overwhelming.
Winnie finally made tfor her daughter.
Kaze felt horrible as he had always taken a hands-free approach to business.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I'll pick you up later. | haven't seen my goddaughter for a while now.” Kaze put down the phone and informed Darcy that he would be swinging by Winnie's to pick her and Brenda up.
Sky could chauffeur Darcy and her parents.
That evening, Kaze drove to No. 9 Springville District.
“What have you been up to, Zenny? Where has the money gone? | gave you 100 thousand dollars a few days ago, and now you're asking for 200 thousand dollars.” At the entrance, Winnie looked angrily at Zenny.
After James’ fatal accident, she remarried Zenny.
+15 BONUS “I told you I'm starting up a business with a friend. Why are you still suspicious? | have no problems with you working as the general manager of Shangrila Group, but you are not supportive of my business venture.” Zenny said annoyedly, cigarette in mouth, “My family has spent a lot of money on Brenda’s treatment, you know.” “Make sure you do well in the business. Don’t gamble off the money. Your dad is already in hot water, so don’t make your mom sad.” Winnie reluctantly took out a bank card.
Zenny'’s favorite pastwhile working at the Traffic Department was gambling.
He would often seek help from his dad, Benedict, for his mounting debts.
“Stop wasting my tand give it to me!” Zenny snatched the bank card and walked away.
He paused at the sight of Kaze.
Zenny buttered Kaze up right away. “Here you are, Mr. Lee.” 0
