Chapter 1260 Oops
"That's right. She was only running a small business a month ago, and now she's the chairwoman of both Quartet Group and Sky Ocean Corporation. That's a lot of wealth in a short amount of time, don't you think?"
"I read online that her husband is the biggest mob boss in the city. Mr. Vikram, Mr. Logman, Mr. Joestar, is that why you're afraid of him?"
"Maybe the Vikrams, Logmans, and Joestars are in on it with Darcy. I bet they are aiming to be the next top three families. Even the former top three families weren't as bad as you people."
"A-Are you trying to rebel?"
Bernard and his friends shook with rage.
They rushed to put out the fire, but they got burnt instead.
In fact, the fallen top three families were deemed better than them.
"Lilyrose Commerce Guild is for everybody. You don't decide everything for us. What do you mean by rebelling?"
"That's right. We demand an answer."
Strength in numbers, the members gathered around Darcy demanding that she did right by them.
"People like you are the reason the guild is often taken advantage of."
An icy voice ensued.
Here came Kaze.
For some reason, Darcy was relieved. She got a grip on herself.
"W-What are you saying, Kaze?"
The members cocked their heads back to look at Kaze. They were wary as their minds wandered back to the online rumors and his approach to setting Yuri straight.
"Do I have to spell it out for you?
"My wife would have trouble establishing herself in the city if she took the 300 million dollars. Just think about it."
As Kaze's gaze brushed around the room, the people fell into contemplation in silence.
He drew close and said, "Give Greg a call now, babe. Ask him what is going on. I bet the bastard has something to do with it."
"Greg is the executive of the Red Foundation's South River State branch. I'll call him right now."
Since the members looked confused, Darcy explained who Greg was and pulled out her phone.
It took a while before the call was answered.
"Hello? To what do I owe this early call, Ms. Quint? I'm still asleep. What? We just met last night. Do you miss me already?"
On the other end of the line, Greg spoke in an offhand and flirty manner.
To let members in on the situation, Darcy put the call on loudspeaker.
Picking up on the suggestive undertones, everybody gave Kaze strange looks. "Just ask him."
Kaze's face remained stoic.
Darcy fought back the rage and asked solemnly, "What's with the list published by the Red Foundation, Mr. Nanas? Why isn't Lilyrose Commerce Guild on it?
"When my husband and I attended the little event last night, you promised that the donation would go to the right place."
"Don't be so quick to question me, Ms. Quint. I usually delegate the minute tasks to my people."
Grey added unhurriedly, "Just wait while I ask them."© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Helpless, Darcy waited by the phone.
Moments later, Greg returned the call. "I just asked them, Ms. Quint.
"It's no big deal. One of the staff somehow forgot to put your organization when making the list."
Greg's nonchalance rubbed Darcy the wrong way.
Somehow forgot?
A mistake could not be afforded on such an important matter.
Darcy swallowed her rage and said, "Since we are clear on the matter, you should get your staff to retract the list on Twitter and publish an updated one with our organization on it.
"You should also issue a notice to explain the situation-"
