Chapter 399 How Could She Go On?
Seeing Elisa’s serene expression, she didn’t dare to express too much. She could only speak to
everyone else awkwardly, “I’m very sorry. What Liz gave me at the time was only what was on the
document. She didn’t elaborate, and I had no way of knowing the specifics.”
Just as Linda was about to shift the blame to Elisa, James smiled. “Did Liz not tell you? Or did you not
want to let her go on?”
Everyone else sized up Linda with complicated expressions.
Linda’s expression changed slightly.
Disdain flickered across Elisa’s face. Was she a calculative wench? A manipulative b*tch?
Who didn’t know how to do these things?
It wasn’t easy to learn the good, but was it hard to learn the bad?
Before Linda could word it her way, Elisa’s face was already filled with guilt. “You can’t blame Linda for
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthis. I was inexperienced at the time and never thought to explain such things to her. You asked me to
explain it in detail, Uncle Markee, which was why I came to my senses and elaborated.”
Linda was stupefied.
Wench!
When did Elisa start to use such tricks!
It seemed like Elisa was absolving her, but everyone present was intelligent!
Everyone knew that when Elisa said that she was inexperienced, it was as good as calling Linda
inexperienced.
Linda could have asked if Elisa didn’t say anything, but Linda didn’t. Linda even made the decision to
overrule Elisa. Didn’t this prove that she was extremely biased!
Seeing everyone look at her with doubtful glances, Linda was so furious she almost spit blood. She
shook her head at once. “My thoughts at the time were the same as they are now. It’s not that I don’t
trust Liz. If this wouldn’t affect the company, I would naturally raise both hands in agreement. It’s
because Liz is my cousin, and I hope that she can find her own footing, but too much is involved in
this.”
Everyone looked at Linda and didn’t say anything. It was clear that they were waiting for her response.
Linda took a breath in and restrained her emotions before she spoke. “If the project works out,
everyone would be delighted and satisfied. But if it fails, I’m afraid that it would affect the company’s
reputation. This is such a huge deal. Everyone would know that Mr. Darcey provided the funds and Liz
didn’t take good control of it, causing a huge loss.”
Seeing that everyone was listening to her, her emotions were much more stabilized. “Even though it
isn’t our company’s capital, at the end of the day, Darcey Group would suffer a huge loss. This would
only let everyone else know that Benett Corporation does a bad job of planning proposals. When the
time comes, who else would work with Benett Corporation? Others would be afraid of failing when
working with us. Then… the company’s reputation would be finished.”
When she said this, Linda couldn’t help but sigh, seeming like an elder sister who was worried for her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyounger sister. She said in exasperation, “There’s also Liz’s reputation. How could she go on in the
company in the future?”
Everyone didn’t have much change of expression when they heard what she said.
A shareholder who was sitting next to James looked at Linda indifferently. “Even though what you’re
saying makes sense, Ms. Benett, why didn’t you make public such a huge decision? Why did you
decide to turn it down on your own?”
Linda’s expression changed slightly. She opened her mouth to refute, but Jessie Green spoke up
again, “You’re worried about your cousin, but the company’s benefit comes first for many things. If you
don’t trust Liz and you think that everyone wouldn’t agree to let Liz take charge, you can make it public.
We can think of a way together.”
Linda was at a loss for words.
She was livid.
But Jessie was one step quicker than her. She asked in a suspicious voice, “Why did you choose to
suppress this? If it weren’t for Mr. Markee, how would we know that Liz has such a good proposal and
such a big profit?
