Chapter 1840
“It's Brian Hughes.”
Surprised to hear from Brian, Wilton quickly asked his assistant to entertain the guests. He then stepped out of the private room to a quieter spot to talk.
“Oh, Brian, what's up?” Wilton asked.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“I need to discuss something important,” Brian began. “Mr. Larson, you’ve been in the business world for years. You know, a well-run family makes a prosperous business. | just hope the Larson Group won't fall apart because of one reckless woman.”
Hearing Brian’s words left Wilton puzzled.
“Can you explain what you mean?” he asked.
Brian responded, “Mr. Larson, you might want to ask your wife about her actions.” What could Renata possibly have done?
Wilton’s brow furrowed in concern. “What has she done?”
Brian continued, “Mr. Larson, your daughter made a scene at my wife’s family reunion party. Clearly, she lacks a proper upbringing. However, considering our families’ ties, my wife and | overlooked it. But now, your wife is causing more trouble. She’s even forcing people to leave the crew just to secure a role for your young daughter. Isn’t that a bit extreme?”
Wilton’s frown deepened upon hearing this.
“My wife forced someone to leave the crew? | was completely unaware of this...” What the hell was Renata doing? He cursed in his heart.
“You seem to be in the dark about this matter.”
Brian went on with a firm tone, “I have no issue with Ivy joining the TV series I’ve funded, but you need to remember my wife wrote the script. She’s insistent that each character is portrayed by someone suitable. You know well about Ivy's capabilities. She's not professionally trained, so ideally, she should've studied the script closely once she got the role. But it seems she’s acting on her own, thinking her family’s support is enough.”
Wilton, caught off-guard by Brian’s blunt words, replied with a strained smile, “I see your point. It’s my fault for not teaching her better. I'll make sure she behaves.”
Brian didn’t mince his words. “Mr. Larson, as a father, it's on you when your kids act out. Ivy needs to learn that there’s always someone better out there. It seems to me that both you and your wife haven't grasped this yet. You're so tied up with work that family matters slip through. Maybe it’s time to find someone who can handle those family affairs better. You’re a sharp businessman, but it seems you didn’t make the best choice in a partner. Your wife isn’t guiding your daughter right. If you won't teach her, | will. lvy should remember this lesson. She’s not always the best and shouldn’t use your family’s name to harm others. Mr. Larson, we don’t want a rift between our families over your daughter, do we?”
Brian’s directness left Wilton feeling uneasy. He was still piecing together the situation but understood the gist of Brian’s message. Renata had previously joined Ivy in bullying others, and Ivy had received her consequence.
Brian’s warning was clear. If he supported Ivy in her bullying again, he would find himself at odds with several influential families, including the Moreno family!
“| understand. Thanks for the heads-up. I’ll look into this immediately.” Wilton’s face darkened as he ended the call. He was about to dial Renata to find out what was going on when his phone rang. It was her.
Answering with an icy tone, Wilton asked, “What do you want?”
