Chapter 710

Caroline retorted, “Even if you get the Collins Group, you don’t have what it takes to take the Evans Group back because it’s under my control. ”

Layla looked at her maliciously. “Really? Caroline, when I get the Collins Group, you’ll discover something that’ll turn your life upside down. When that happens, even the Evans family will forsake you. Not to mention the Morrisons.”

Caroline replied calmly, “Then, I’d better get the Collins Group so my life won’t be turned upside down.”

Layla laughed at her words. “I can’t believe you’re still dreaming, Caroline. Ed has already made it clear that he will endorse me. Do you really think you have a chance? Besides, who’ll endorse you?

That poor husband of yours?”

Caroline glared at Layla.

“What? Are you going to hit me? Remember, there are surveillance cameras here!” Layla challenged, swallowing.

Caroline’s glare was terrifying. It was like a hungry wolf staring at a piece of flesh.

“Why would I hit you?” Caroline pinched Layla’s cheek. “Oh, my dear cousin. I’m just showing you some familial affection.”

“Ah!” Layla screamed in pain.

Everyone was stunned. They didn’t know if they should help. It wasn’t until Layla scratched Caroline’s arm that everyone realized they were fighting and quickly separated them.

When they broke apart, Layla’s cheeks were already red, and Caroline’s arms had several scratches.

Layla hissed in pain.

However, Caroline’s expression remained cold.

“This is my first time meeting someone so fond of sticking their hand into a hornet’s nest. Layla, you’d better heed my warning. I don’t care what you say about me because you’re just a pest. No one cares about pests. But if you insult my husband again, I’ll kill you like one.”

“You’re crazy! You’re a madman! You treat Ed like trash, but–Layla remembered Caroline’s warning moments ago and didn’t dare to finish her words.

Caroline turned away and left.

As Layla watched Caroline leave, she finished the sentence she had started, “What a lunatic. I don’t know what’s so good about her husband. He’s clearly a poor sob, but she treats him like a treasure.”

When Mr. Donovan heard her, he came over and said to Layla, “There’s no need to let someone like her rattle your cage, Ms. Layla. Some people think their possessions are the most superior.”

Layla glanced at Mr. Donovan, and he immediately stopped talking.

She cast her gaze on the staff behind the counter. She asked, “Did Caroline come here to submit the application?”

The staff nodded timidly. They didn’t dare to offend the woman Eddy had given his support to “Throw her application away.”

“But…”

Mr. Donovan shook his head at the staff, then said, “Don’t worry, Ms. Layla. We’ll throw away Ms.

Caroline’s documents. After all, only you’re eligible to acquire the Collins Group.”

After hearing his words, Layla’s mood finally improved. “It’s good that you have some common sense. Don’t worry. When I take over the Collins Group, I’ll definitely keep working with you guys.”

Mr. Donovan smiled and saw Layla off. When he returned, the employee stopped him. “Mr.

Donovan, are we really going to throw away Ms. Caroline’s documents?”

“What do you think? Can you find another company that has more assets than Morrison Corp?”

His words instantly made the employee speechless, and he had no choice but to throw Caroline’s application documents into the trash.
