A cloud of anger washed over Marina, her face turning stormy. She stamped her foot in vexation, exclaiming, “Mother, look at this jerk! He dares to act superior after everything that’s transpired! He actually blocked me!" Laura, hearing the unending dial tone, offered a comforting suggestion, “Maybe you should try to reach him with my phone?” Marina pressed her Lips together and nodded. She took Laura’s phone and dialed the snumber, only to meet the sfate-no connection.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMarina’s expression darkened further, while Laura simmered with rage.
Marco's ingratitude incensed her. At the stime, considering Liza's directive, they were left worrying about how they could possibly get in touch with Marco.
At that moment, a janitor entered the room, intending to clean.
Noticing the room wasn’t empty, she immediately apologized and started to retreat. An idea sparked in Laura’s head as she swiftly intercepted the janitor, persuading her to Lend them her phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey redialed Marco’s number, their gazes pinned nervously on the screen.
After three rings, the call was finally answered. Marco's detached voice floated from the other end. “Who is this?” Seizing the opportunity, Marina immediately responded, “Brother, it's me, Marina! Please, don’t hang up, just hearout!” Marco hesitated, his voice chilling further, “What do you want?” “Brother, since you were ousted from the Bryant family, | know it must be hard for you. We've been siblings for B so long; surely there are still sLingering emotions. Given our past relationship, | want to help.” Fearing that he might cut her off, Marina hurriedly put forth her proposition.
ANGELA'sLIBRARY “Cback and be my executive assistant. You'll manage the group's affairs just as before. Of course, I'll remain the CEO, and you'll be my assistant!” Convinced that her appeal to Marco’s sentiment and rationality would sway him into gratefully accepting her offer, Marina's tone oozed arrogance as she added, “I can offer you a monthly salary of $9, 000. | wouldn't extend such a generous offer to anyone else, but I'm doing this because of our former sibling bond!” For a moment, there was no response from Marco’s end. After what seemed like an eternity, a contemptuous Laugh broke the silence.
The derision in the Laughter was clear, even to Marina. Flustered and irked, she retorted, “What are you Laughing at? I'm offering you a chance to work!” “Marina, | never thought that a few days as a CEO would make you even more senseless. The Bryant Group isn't faring well, so Grandma has sent you to plead withto return and salvage the situation, hasn't she?” The realization that Marco had seen through her schmade Marina's heart plummet. Her face hardened, but she forced herself to maintain a strong front. “So what? You should consider it a privilege that we're willing to hire you back!” “Is that so? Then, keep that ‘privilege’ to yourself. I've made it clear; I've severed all ties with the Bryant family.
Even if the Bryant Group's stocks plummet, it won't concern me.”
