“Seems like it.”
Rashad said coldly, “Her Larson family has made quite a fortune in the construction materials business in recent years, at least in the tens of millions.”
“But every time I think of that family of vultures, it makes my blood boil.”
When the Larson family was poor, it was Rashad who helped lift them up. But when the Larson family rose to power, they were chased out by the Pittman family. They even had the nerve to come begging for money and then refuse to pay it back!
The memories of those dark days made Rashad grit his teeth with hatred.
“Alas!” Charlotte sighed, “They are just that kind of people, getting worked up over them will only upset ourselves.”
“But…”
“If they really secure this deal, I can only imagine how smug they will be, coming to flaunt it and mock us.”
“Annoying.”
Quentin smiled lightly, “I have a hundred ways to deal with scoundrels like her.”
“What else can you do? Are you planning to hit them? Fifty thousand is not a large sum for us now.” Rashad smiled bitterly. “But I can’t swallow this resentment.”
“I have a way to make her hand over the money in three days, and she’ll come to apologize on her knees to your family.”
“Is it true or false?”
Rashad looked disbelieving.
“Of course, it’s true.” Quentin said nonchalantly. “If you don’t believe me, let’s make a bet.”
“Deal! What are we betting on?” Rashad nodded. “Just so we’re clear, using brute force doesn’t count. I don’t believe you can handle scoundrels like her.”
“Let’s see.” Quentin smiled. “If there are results in three days, you’ll have to address me as brother-in-law from now on.”
“If I can’t handle her, then I’ll agree to any one condition you set.”
Rashad chuckled indifferently, “Is that it? You want me to call you brother-in-law every day? I’ll play along with your bet.”
“It’s a deal.”
“Childish.” Charlotte shook her head at the two men. Dealing with a shrew like Karly, you really can’t do much…
Trying to make her repay the money and kneel in apology is like daydreaming. Quentin might underestimate the situation this time.
In the afternoon.
After dropping off Charlotte, Quentin returned to the Holland family.
At this time, the news of the Conley family being exposed had spread like wildfire, causing quite a stir.
However, for Quentin, it was just a trivial matter, and he couldn’t be bothered with the aftermath.
Quentin called Clark Wilson, and an excited voice came from the other end, “General Quincy, what are your orders?”
“Clark, find out if there’s been a recent construction materials project.” Quentin said lightly. “I have something for you to do.”
Serenity Valley Estate, one of the upscale neighborhoods in Stresall. In a 200-square-meter duplex, Karly walked in angrily.
“I am so angry today!”
“Those two bitches from the Pittman family actually dared to treat me like this. I’ll smack them next time! It’s so infuriating!”
“Mom, why are you so angry?” A young woman walked out.
She was Karly’s daughter, Gloria Larson.
“What’s the point of arguing with those two losers?” Gloria rolled her eyes. “I can’t even be bothered to look at them if they die.”
When the Pittman family was still wealthy, she followed them around like a little sister, but now that they had fallen…
Of course, she would not flatter them anymore.
Thinking back to how humble she had been in front of them in the past, Gloria only felt shame and resentment. She wanted to tear off a layer of their skin.
Karly sneered, “Thinking they’re something just because they have a bit of dirty money? Trash is trash and they can never rise up.”
“When I secure the project with Spicurity Group, I’ll show them!”
Gloria nodded, “Then we can slap their faces hard!”
At that moment, a knock on the door sounded.
“Hello, is this the home of Mr. Larson from Larson Construction? We are employees of Spicurity Group, here to discuss a project between Spicurity Group and Larson Construction.”
Mother and daughter were both stunned to hear the voices outside.
Employees of Spicurity Group?
A project?
What on earth was going on?!
