Love on the Fast Track

Chapter 1138:

Selling company secrets is a grave offense that could land someone in jail. Surely no one would take such a risk just to assist them.

Elsa quickly seized the opportunity to taunt Hank, “Hank, could you not have identified the mole within the company earlier? Mom said you invested a hundred million into the new product. I hope it hasn’t all been wasted?”

Marlene caught her breath. A hundred million, discussed as casually as if it were only a hundred—mere pocket change for their level of investment.

She had indeed joined a wealthy family and felt incredibly fortunate.

They treated her well, and all she needed to do was play along with their schemes.

Marlene was resolved to stay with the Wilson family, embodying the obedient figure they expected and fulfilling whatever they required of her, as long as she could keep her title as Miss Wilson.

Hank was clearly distressed. “The entire data for our new product was compromised, forcing us to discard everything and begin again with the planning and strategy. We’ve been working nonstop to try to limit the damages.”

Elsa subtly nudged Larry, prompting him to add, “Iker, I’ll certainly support Hank through this crisis. I was deeply involved in the planning for the new product.”

Larry’s words made Hank look even more troubled; if he had realized the extent of the leak earlier, he wouldn’t have informed Iker that all the credit for the new product should go to him.

Iker, managing to keep his irritation in check, said, “I expect to see results before my birthday party. If you two don’t come up with something satisfactory, you won’t be managing the company anymore.”

Larry responded, “I’ll follow your orders, Iker. I’ll put in the effort and coordinate with Hank to navigate through this setback.”

Hank said, “Dad, you can rely on me!”

Marlene absentmindedly chewed on her fork, observing the various motives and plans among the Wilson family members. Elsa, her so-called cousin, always sought to enhance either her own or her husband’s influence within the company.

And Hank was always eager to demonstrate his capabilities and earn his place in the family’s esteem.noveldrama

Larry and Hadley usually kept silent and steered clear of trouble. Iker, the stern patriarch of the Wilson family, was known for his commanding presence. His word was law, and he maintained tight control over the family.

Mindy, always with a cunning smile, was adept at making pointed remarks.
