Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 138 A few minutes later, in the Lynn family’s study, Mr. Lynn sat firmly at the head of the table while the housekeeper respectfully ushered the visitor in..

“Miss Smith, please have a seat,” Mr. Lynn greeted with a smile.

Isabella sat down and got straight to the point, “Mr. Lynn, | am here today to borrow some money from you.” As she spoke, a hint of reluctance was palpable in her demeanor.

In her past life, she rarely focused on business matters. Only if it involved Ben would she pay a bit more attention.

In her memory, a grand opportunity in the busineLynn family.

She knew that directly asking for a loan might not be well-received, but she was also aware that Monica had returned.

In the past life, the Lynn family had stirred quite a bit of drama in their attempts to reconcile Monica and Ben.

This time around, she saw no reason why they wouldn't cause a stir again.

If they were harboring such intentions, then she just happened to have the information they were craving. ss world was looming in the next few days.

Back then, Ben entered the scene with ten million dollars and exited with a staggering a hundred million dollars, a feat hailed by many as a business miracle.

Now, Isabella wanted to replicate this remarkable success.

Ben admired capable individuals. If she could also turn ten million dollars into a hundred million dollars, he would surely regard her with newfound respect, realizing that she was indeed the person who could genuinely assist him.

Originally, Isabella was brimming with confidence, intending to accomplish this all by herself.

However, there had been a series of unexpected setbacks recently.

First, when she established her company, mysterious additional expenses kept cropping up, causing her budget to be severely strained.

Furthermore, she planned to start an entertainment company and had covertly reached out to several promising talents for the future.

Yet, every time she made contact with someone, they would promptly inform her that they had already signed with another company, named “Future Entertainment.” 1. In har previous life.

Chapter 138 there was no trace of this company in the entertainment industry.

It was evident that the company either went bankrupt or was too insignificant to remember.

It irked her that the talents she had her eye on were snatched away by that company, one after another.

Following these developments, Isabella's company remained nothing but a shell.

A shell that couldn't generate any income, yet required continual investment to maintain.

Consequently, her funds were dwindling.

She had initially received twelve million dollars from her family to kickstart her business venture in Coraland.

After purchasing property, establishing the company, and hiring several high-salaried talents, she was left with merely four million dollars.

Isabella had no choice but to approach her family once again for financial aid. However, her usually doting parents unequivocally refused, stating that the twelve million dollars was their limit. If she exhausted this amount without building a successful venture, she would have to return home and settle down in marriage, a prospect Isabella was adamantly against.

But without money, she couldn't invest and therefore couldn’t reap any astonishing profits.

Left with no other options, Isabella decided to seek out a partner for herself.

Isabella had tried to reach out to Leo, but the moment he heard it involved investing money, he bolted faster than anyone else.

She even sought collaboration with other established families in Anaville, but those people didn't trust her at all. They didn’t even allow her to speak before refusing her partnership request.

After much consideration, Isabella set her sights on the Isabella believed there was a foundation for collaboration between them.

As for whether Monica and Ben would actually reconcile after receiving the information, Isabella wasn't the least bit concerned.

No matter how the Lynn family plotted, Monica was like a blob of mud that couldn't be propped up against a wall.

“Borrowing money?” Mr. Lynn chuckled. “Let's forget about borrowing. | can gift you ten thousand dollars, and you don’t have to repay it. Consider it as fostering a good relationship between our families.” Ten thousand dollars? Isabella replied calmly, “I intend to borrow six million dollars.” Mr. Lynn narrowed his eyes, “I'm afraid we don’t have that much liquid capital at our disposal.” Isabella flashed a slight smile, “What if | could facilitate a reconciliation between Monica and Ben?” Mr. Lynn's pupils constricted sharply, “I don’t know what you're talking about. Ben is already married,” “What era are we living in? Just because someone is married, it doesn’t mean they can't divorce,” Isabella remarked. “Besides, if it weren't for that accident, Ms. Lynn would still be Mrs. Landor. Why should she return, fully recovered from her ordeal, only to find her position usurped? It really irks me on Monica's behalf.” Mr. Lynn scrutinized Isabella closely, who met his gaze with a smiling face.

After a lengthy silence, he finally spoke, “Why would someone from Riowert be capable facilitating a reconciliation between Ben and Monica?” “Because | have compromising information on Susan,” Isabella whispered mysteriously, of Chapter 136 her voice dropping to a conspiratorial tone.

“Oh?” Mr. Lynn remained impassive.

Feeling the need to reveal a bit more to pique his interest, she continued, “Right now, the public believes that Ben and Susan are a loving couple. But who knows that in Susan's heart, there lies affection for another man, and it has been there for a full decade?” “Oh?” This time, a glimmer of interest sparked in Mr. Lynn's eyes.

“And there’s more. Susan has a very bad relationship with her family. Her parents and even her own sister regard her as an enemy. Do you know why?” “Oh?” The spark in Mr. Lynn's eyes brightened.

He was genuinely unaware of these details.

However, Isabella decided to hold back the rest of the information for now. She looked at Mr. Lynn and proposed, “Six million dollars, and I'll tell you everything | know. Furthermore, | can write an IOU, promising to repay the amount with interest within five days at the latest. | am, after all, a member of the Smith family, you shouldn't worry about my ability to repay the loan, right?” After a moment of reflection, Mr. Lynn spoke slowly, “If the information you've provided is all true, | can lend you the six million dollars.” “Itis, itis, all true,” Isabella couldn't hide the excitement bubbling inside her as she hastily replied.

Without hesitation, she revealed everything — Susan's relationship with Timothy and the complications between Susan and Yana.

These events had been exposed to the public in her previous life.

It was one of the reasons Isabella had always felt that Susan didn’t deserve Ben.

How could someone as fickle and heartless as Susan merit a lifetime of affection from Ben? Was she worthy of it? Mr. Lynn listened intently, occasionally probing for further details.

Chapter 138

Observing that Isabella answered each query without faltering, potn seeming to be fabricating anything, a stifle ‘glint of interest appeared in his eyes. Interesting.

He was surprised to find that Susan had quite a colorful background.

The explosive information shared by Isabella seemed to have significant potential for manipulation.

“Six million dollars, it's a deal,” Mr. Lynn finally said, his decision made.

Isabella nodded vigorously, her face beaming with happiness. “You won't be disappointed.” Half an hour later, Isabella walked out of the Lynn family, holding a card loaded with six million dollars.

Back inside, Mr. Lynn was lost in thought, contemplating the bombshells Isabella had dropped.

Firstly, he needed to verify the information.

Even after that, he couldn't act impulsively.

He would wait for the perfect opportunity — a moment when he could strike and leave Susan with no possibility of recovery. But such an opportunity wouldn't just present itself.

He had to create it.

Mr. Lynn pulled out a piece of paper and expressionlessly wrote down two names: Carl and Jane.

These two people would be the breakthrough point in his plan.

He needed to give it more thought, considering the detailed logistics.

After all, it was rare for Monica to finally open up to the idea of being with Ben again. Both as a father and for the sake of their family's reputation, he needed to strategize carefully for his daughter's sake this time.
