She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 934

"...You're absolutely right, Minister..."

Faced with Lilian's suffocating pressure, Holden had no choice but to bow his head in submission.

"Then it's settled. Minister Halevy, you'll be our witness. I'll have the contracts sent over to the Lockridge Group by tomorrow morning."

"Not a problem."

Lilian gave Melanie's shoulder a fond, approving pat.

Out of everyone in the room, Holden and Dominic looked like they were attending a funeral.

But with the former minister standing right there, neither man dared to utter a word of protest.

"Who would have thought? This whole disaster turned out to be a blessing in disguise for the Lockridge Group."

Melanie glanced from Holden to Dominic, her tone laced with sweet poison.

"VP Hale, you've been begging for a partnership with the Royce Group for months. Looks like you finally got one! Congratulations to you both."

If Melanie had just stayed quiet, he might have survived the humiliation, but her mocking congratulations nearly made Holden cough up blood.

This was the absolute exact opposite of the partnership he wanted!

He wanted to rip a piece of the pie from her hands.

Instead, she had just swallowed his entire operation whole!

Holden fought to keep his composure, but his lungs were practically burning with rage.

Her smug, victorious smile was almost more than he could bear.

In the end, Holden let out a furious scoff and stormed out, not even bothering to wait for Dominic or Gavin.

Even though they were standing in their own facility, the Lockridges fled the scene like trespassing outsiders.

Thorne made a few quick, nervous pleasantries with Lilian before scurrying off as well.

Barney curled into a ball in the corner, trying his hardest to become invisible.

The storm had passed, and the last thing he wanted was to stick around surrounded by the Whitmore family's lethal-looking enforcers.

"Um... Vice President Whitmore, if you don't need me anymore, can I get out of here?"
