Yvette nodded. She was sitting casually on the sofa. Her long and straight legs were slightly bent.
She rested her chin on her palm and said lightly. âHave a seat, Howard. How do you feel now?â
Howard had been struggling with serious heart disease for over twenty years. He had been hospitalized more than a dozen times.
He had almost lost all hope. Later, surprisingly, after taking a few boxes of medicine that Yvette gave him, he gradually felt better.
A few days ago, a doctor told him that his heart disease was cured. Now, he just needed to be careful with his health.
Even the doctors said his recovery was like a miracle.
The one who treated him as a renowned expert, Yosef Kenton, who had subtly asked Howard several times whether someone had been secretly treating his decease.
Talking about his illness, Howard but emotional. Who wouldnât want to live a few more years?
He said gratefully, âBoss, my disease is almost cured. Iâve been taking the medicine that you gave me regularly. Itâs amazingâ
Yvette nodded nonchalantly and said lazily. The bio lab, one of the top three labs in Betricg, needs investment for a project, right Howard was puzzled. He wondered how his boss knew about this The bio lab was indeed looking for investors to collaborate on a new project. This idea was brought up after a funding shortfall.
But it hadnât been made public yet.
Only the powerful people in Betrico knew about this. It was still highly confidential.
Howard said, âYes, boss, the bio lab is a key national lab and was supposed to have sufficient funding. However, due to some unexpected reasons, the costs exceeded considerably and the government doesnât want to invest more money in it. The director, Rashad, is now looking for other investors to resolve his urgent financial crisis.â
Yvette grinned, looking wild, untamed, and strikingly beautiful. She said lightly. âInvest in this project. Tell him thereâs only one condition: I want someone to study in his lab.â
Howard was briefly taken aback and reflexively blurted out, âWho?â
Yvette slightly raised her head and then said, âMe.â
In just a few hours, the news that the Chambers Group was going to hold a conference was spreading rapidly.
Everyone was anticipating the announcement from the Chambers Group regarding its bankruptey and withdrawal from.
Seacrityâs market.
As one of the four major families declined, numerous others were eager to fill the void.
At the Smith residence, Dennis was sitting on the sofa with Nellie by his side and Zeke and Winona sat on either side, looking jittery. Neither of them was speaking.
Nellieâs face looked healthily rosy and was glowing. Lately, she had been enjoying her life immensely. She changed her partners daily: all kinds of young and handsome boys.
She finally realized that she hadnât gained anything from all these years with Zachary Although she was unwilling to accept it, there was nothing she could do about it.
If Zachary went bankrupt, she could do whatever she wanted.
Nellie was thrilled, thinking that Zachary would soon announce his bankruptcy and would have nothing left. She asked, âDad, is the Chambers family really going to anounce their bankruptcy?â
Dennisâs eyes looked fierce and menacing. His smile was cold and evil.
He said, âYeah, even if the Chambers family tries its best, they wonât survive a long time. Heâs left everything to Yvette. Although weâve been pushing him hard, he hasnât used that inoney yet. Heâs made up his mind. It is a wise choice to announce their bankruptcy now. At least, he wonât lose everything.
Nellie was so furious that she gritted her teeth when Dennis mentioned that Zachary was still protecting Yvette.
Zeke and Winona exchanged a glance. They had no say at this moment.
Recently, every time Wines went to a party with Victor, she felt that people despised her.
If she hadnât been going to marry into the Carter family, those people would probably humiliate her.
Although Victor had forgiven her, sometimes cold toward her.
no longer as nice and soft to her as before. He was sometimes gentle and When he was in a good mood, he treated her better. When irritated, he would look cold.
He showed no respect for her at all in front of everyone.
Winona didnât dare to say anything. She had to swallow her pride. She looked visibly worn out.
Zeke was now relying on the Smith familyâs money. He couldnât spend extravagantly anymore. Some people who once catered to him backed off when they noticed his decline.
Zekeâs life was miserable too.
Dennis scanned Winona with a serious and cold look. He asked, âWinona, how have things been lately with Victor?â
Winonaâs fingers suddenly tensed. There was an awkward silence in the living room. She said, âGrandpa, Iâm doing well with Victor. Donât worry. Yesterday, I had dinner with Mrs. Carter Of course, Winona wasnât going to let Dennis know that she had a meal with Yulia yesterday. But Yulia kept laughing and sneering at her.
Dennis nodded in satisfaction at Winonaâs words.
He said, âGood job. Just focus on keeping Victorâs heart but donât forget about yourself like your mother did. She had been tricked for years without realizing it Hearing her name, Nellieâs cheeks turned pink. She lowered her head.
Zeke looked at them with a cold face. A hatred was growing within him.
If his mom hadnât done something so disgraceful, he wouldnât be the laughingstock of Seacrity.
He would never shake off the label of a âbastard.â And the saddest part was that he didnât even know who his father was.
Threeâlifteen on the nose, Zachary, dressed in a black suit, showed up at the conference in time.
He was entirely different from before. It was brimming with energy. She even jumped up and down while walking 10:23 Sun, Oct 13 Chapter 151 The reporters below were puzzled. They thought it wasnât at all what they had expected.
Zachary didnât look like someone about to declare bankruptcy atall. He looked so happy.
Before coming here, these twentyâsomething news outlets had already decided on todayâs headline.
The title would be: [The Chambers Family Is Going to Bankrupt Whatâs Next for Them?]
Zachary calmly walked to his seat and sat down. Lucas followed behind him carrying a black briefcase.
Numerous cameras flashed on Zacharyâs face instantly.
Before Zachary could say anything, the reporters shot him with a lot of questions.
âAre you going to announce the Chambers Groupâs bankruptcy?â
âDid the Chambers family encounter a series of setbacks from the Smith family and the Carter family because of your divorce from Nellie âRumor has it that Zeke and Winona, whom Nellie, the third child of the Smiths, gave birth to, arenât yours? So youâve left all your money to your eldest daught hom you reunited with not long ago. Is it true?â
âDid you alone bring the Chambers family to the bankruptcy?â
âPlease, head of the Chambers family, could you please explain everything to us?â
âWhat exactly do you intend to announce at todayâs press conference, Mr. Chambers?â
Faced with the reporters tough questions, Zachary calmly waved his hand, signaling them to quiet down. His dark eyes glittered.
He said, âThe Chambers Group is holding this press conference to address what happened in the past two weeks, preventing people with evil intentions from twisting the story any further. Iwill explain everything to you.â
