“Auntie, how could you use the Bright family name like that? If you do this people will lose trust in the Bright family name! Grandpa will be mad if he knows about this.”
“Corey you have lost the right to speak for the Bright family, you chose to opt-out of the family remember.
And you Susan don’t think that the Bright family will let you go if you pull this kind of stunt, we are not afraid of hurting our public image as long as justice is served.” Shutting up Corey, Melinda threatened Susan.
As far as the family public image is concerned no one will believe that the city’s wealthiest and prominent family would try to dupe a few million from a small-time auction manager, as long court rules in the Bright family’s favour.
Corey fiercely glared at Melinda and was about to rebut her but was interrupted by Susan, “Corey this doesn’t concern you, stay out of it. And as for you Mrs Melinda Bright just because you have a bigger mouth does not mean whatever nonsense you spout is the truth.
I have been in this business for 7 years now and I have few tricks up my sleeve too.”
Soon the gem on Susan’s right wrist bracelet lit up and the voice of Melinda sounded from within the gem,
“Don’t worry about the loan Susan, we can be considered friends now…”
“Since you promised to introduce me to your card creationist I will loan you the money for zero interest…”
“return the loan at your convenience…”
Melinda’s expression turned hideous as she said, “That was recorded without my consent or knowledge.”
“So what it’s valid as I am one of the parties involved in the conversation. Now that I have satisfied my end of the deal now it’s your turn, I will return the money at my convenience. Please show yourselves out now.”
I was impressed by Susan but it was better to cut ties with the snake when given the chance otherwise it will come back to bite us. So, transferring 40 million $ to Susan’s account I said, “Susan pay her back we don’t need her money anymore.”
Susan had already received the notification of the money transfer from her grimoire and seemed to have the same idea as me. She transferred the 20 million $ she owed to Melinda and with a humble smile she said, “Mrs Melinda, thank you for the help and pleasure doing business with you.”
“No, the pleasure is mine” Melinda responded with a professional smile and turned to me while sending a friend invite to my grimoire adding, “Mr Wyatt when you are done playing small, give me a call.”
I replied, “If I change my mind I will let you know.”
Before leaving she looked at Corey who was still holding a tray full of refreshments and said, “you are not the Corey I know, who are you?”
Hearing this Corey’s face went pale and her hands trembled slightly before regaining calmness, her reaction caused Melinda to raise an eyebrow. But Melinda did not think much of it and left.
…
Walking out of the warehouse Melinda made a call,
“Old man, Corey is surrounded with good company. But for the princess of the Bright family to work as a maid isn’t a bit…” Melinda dragged her voice not knowing how to express her negation without angering the old man.
“I don’t care, my granddaughter wants to experience life, then let her.” Said William Bright arrogantly
“I don’t care either, I am tired of acting the villain. You should have seen her glare at me as if I am the enemy, that unfilial niece. I fed her my breast milk for 7 months when her mother was out on a mission.”
“Ahem!”
“Don’t clear your throat at me. You men all are the same, didn’t you have a mother… anyway I just lost an excellent slave because of your overindulgence, how are you planning to compensate me.”
“How about you get to inform Kitty that I am retiring and that I am giving her the family.”
“What? Old man have you gone senile, family is not yours to give it to mother-in-law. You both run the family together. If you retire then she will be the head of the family automatically.”
“Whatever I am retiring, let me grow old peacefully watching my granddaughter grow.”
“Sure fine with me, but I can’t say the same about the elders and the rest of the family, especially the men in the family.”
“Just warn them not to disturb my retirement.”
‘Tut tut tut…’
Bright family hierarchy is unlike any other family, ever since the rule of War golem twins the family has always had two leaders, this era the leaders were William and his wife Kitty. William’s unexpected retirement now was earth-shattering news for the family and the Sky blossom city.
