Elisa returned home with a temper.

“Amara, that useless Dustin really didn’t take anything from the Wyatt family. The Langley family took him in,” she said huffily.

The Langley family?” Amara frowned.

“Yes. The one called Simone Langley. She brought some gifts to the house that one time. But I sent her packing because you didn’t want to see her.”

Amara thought about it.

“I remember now. The company owned by the Langley familly wanted a partnership, but I ignored them. I heard their company is on the brink of bankruptcy now.”

“Yes! That’s the same Langley family.” Elisa nodded earnestly.

“Their company’s going bankrupt. The family’s not going to survive much longer. I can’t believe they dared take that piece of trash in. It makes no sense!

“That trash Dustin even claimed that the Wyatt family owes him. Isn’t that laughable?”

Elisa’s sisters all reacted in different ways.

Some mocked him, others felt disdainful, and yet others treated it with cool indifference.

“Dustin was nothing more than a dog that the Wyatt family kicked out. If the Langley family dares to take him in, that’s clearly an act of defiance against us. They really don’t know what’s good for them!”

“Dustin even said he’d make us regret it. I wonder if he’ll even survive until tomorrow!” Elisa continued to mock Dustin. “Some men from the Serpentine Gang went there too, and Dustin just had to stick his nose into the problem. I bet he’s in trouble now!”

The other sisters frowned. After a while, they all laughed.

Dustin really did not know how useless he actually was.

“He’s no longer a part of the Wyatt family. There’s no need to care whether he lives or dies,” Amara said coldly. “As for the Langley family, we just need to pull some strings to make them face complete ruin!”

Just as Amara said that, her phone rang.

It was a call from the company.

“What is it?” asked Amara calmly.

“Miss Wyatt, we have a huge problem! The Excelsior Group suddenly canceled the contract your personally signed with them! They no longer want to work with us!”

“What?!” Amara’s face darkened.

The Excelsior Group was one of the top conglomerates in the capital, Somerton–Many businesses wanted to collaborate with them and secure their hefty contracts.

Chapter 3

Amara had personally taken on the task and gone to Somerton many times to negotiate with them, but she was turned away even before she got to meet the lowest executive officer of the Excelsior Group.

Just as she was about to give up hope, the Excelsior Group had reached out. Their president had personally met her. The man had been exceedingly courteous and claimed that he had been moved by Amara’s sincerity. He then readily handed her a huge contract.

That achievement was something that Amara felt immensely proud of. It was a remarkable story that had become something like a legend in the business world in Rivenesco.

The Wyatt Group had just delivered their first batch of samples. Just a day before, the Excelsior Group had s seemed pleased with those samples. They were supposed to sign the contract for a huge order the next day. Why had they suddenly changed their minds at this point?

Amara did not understand.

“What’s going on with them?!” she screamed into the phone.

How could there be such a mistake when this order was so critical for the Wyatt Group?

“Miss Wyatt, we also don’t know what’s going on…” stammered the person on the other end.

Amara hung up and threw her phone on the coffee table. She folded her arms in front of her chest. Her face was frosty and troubled.

“Amara… what’s going on?” Delia looked wary. It was almost like she was afraid to speak too loudly.

“What’s going on with the Excelsior Group? Why did they suddenly cancel their order?” Amara could not figure it out no matter how hard she thought about it.

The day before yesterday, the Excelsior Group had been delighted and had praised the Wyatt Group.

“Amara, why don’t we investigate and see if we can fix this?” Bella asked tentatively.

Amara thought it through before picking up her phone again and making a call.

First, she called the president of the Excelsior Group, but the call did not go through.

“Has he blocked me?” Amara could not believe it.

She had grown up as the envy of many. She was always revered and respected and had never been treated this way before.

She could not believe that this was how things had ended up. She pulled up WhatsApp to check her messages, but her face only turned darker when she saw it.

The app showed that she had been blocked, and she had no other means of contacting the president of the Excelsior Group.

Amara looked scary as she huffed shakily.

“Find out what’s happening with the Excelsior Group now!” she said after dialing a number.

Soon, she got some updates.

“Miss Wyatt, the president of the Excelsior Group is personally driving over to the Langley family

“What?”

All five sisters were shocked. They could not believe it

The Langley family..

The same Langley family that had taken in that useless trash, Dustin?

How could that be?

“The Langley Group is on the verge of bankruptcy and has massive debts. Why would the Excelsior Group be interested in them? The president is even visiting in person!”

Bella found the entire situation unbelievable.

“What is the president of the Excelsior Group thinking? In all of Rivenesco, only the Wyatt Group can

handle such a huge order as theirs. The Langley Group is nothing!” Clara said furiously.

Delia frowned but remained silent. She was just as stumped as the rest of them.

Elisa could not make sense of it, either.

She had just returned from the Langley family, so she knew how things were over there.

Had the president of the Excelsior Group lost his mind?

Suddenly, Amara stood up and walked to the door.

“Amara, where are you going?”

“To the Langley family!”

Outside the Langley family villa, a relatively modest Maybach came to a halt.

The president of the Excelsior Group stepped out of the car,

Inside the villa, the Langley family was immensely worried after Dustin had headed out with the Serpentine Gang members. They had almost called the police.

But soon, Dustin had returned safely inside.

“Dustin, are you alright? Where are the Serpentine Gang’s people?

The whole family rushed over to Dustin. They were scared that he might have gotten hurt. 1

“Don’t worry. They just left. The money you owe them will be handled later,” said Dustin with a smile. Dustin would definitely help the Langley family since they took him in with such open hearts.

“How did you manage that?” David and Monique were stunned.

Dustin considered cooking up a story, but Simone changed the topic before he could say anything. She could sense that he could not tell them the truth.

Dustin gave her a grateful look

He had not spent much time with Simone, but he knew that she was very perceptive and understanding. The two of them had a strange ability to sense what the other person was thinking.
