The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 1507 The Arrogant Montclairs

The entire Montclair family, except for Alfred, their black sheep, was steeped in arrogance.

However, Ophelia never saw it that way. Perhaps time had dulled her memory, making her forget how she was able to marry into the Whitman family and what it meant to be content.

The trap Kenton had set for Taylor wouldn't have succeeded without the Montclair family's assistance. Over the years, this had become an unspoken secret between the two families.

Tamia held firm control over the family's affairs, and her youngest son's greatest asset was his obedience.

The eldest, Alfred, was not her biological child, but the youngest, Landon Montclair was. Given that Landon was born late in Tamia's life, he was practically spoiled rotten.

Landon was currency seated in the agreed-upon meeting place between several families.

"How do you plan on dealing with the girl from the Quinnell family?" Edison Waldron asked.

The Waldron family was the one who organized this meeting. Yet, they had always played the silent partner's role. After all, they could profit from the rivalry between the Whitman and Wray families.

But now, with the Wray family in decline, it was only a matter of time before the old man would seek a family to do their bidding. The Whitman family was out of the question due to their ties to the Quinnell family.

This stroke of fortune had to land on the Waldron family no matter the cost! Edison was determined to make his family's value apparent to the old man!

Landon, still naive and riding the wave of newfound influence, couldn't help but voice his thoughts bluntly." Mr. Waldron, what you should be asking isn't how to deal with that Quinnell girl, but how to take advantage of the Whitman family.

"If you ask me, the Whitmans are so busy dealing with their own problems that we could easily step in and deal the final blow."

"You're quite astute, Mr. Montclair. That's exactly my intention. We all recognize that the public sentiment is currently in your favor, which is why I thought it best for us to collaborate and brainstorm a plan.

"But what exactly do you mean when you mention that they are busy with their own problems?" Edison replied in an unusually respectful tone. It was obvious he was flattering LandonContent protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Just a few days ago, Edison would never have given this mama's boy a second thought. But the Montclair family had a knack for pulling shady tricks. They were all too aware of the discussions online.

Regardless of whether Noah had done anything to betray Ophelia or not, the Whitman family would have to hand over their shares to the Montclair family. In no time, the Montclair family's status would rise significantly.

That was the only reason why Edison was acting this way.

Landon relished this newfound attention. After all, he was a member of the Chamber of Commerce, yet these people always treated him as inferior. In the past, no one paid him any mind when he spoke.

These people might have been successful in business, but none could compare to the advantage he had from Ophelia's marriage.

Landon knew how to play his cards right. He picked up his teacup and blew on it before speaking, "The public opinion is secondary. My mother holds the key to the Whitman family's fate.

"That Taylor.. since he always looked down on others, he is about to face some hardships during the account inspection. Soon enough, the Whitman family will pay the price for what that girl has done!"

Edison, a seasoned fox in the business world, quickly picked up on Landon's implication. "Are you suggesting there are issues with the Whitman family's accounts?"

Landon replied dismissively, a look of superiority on his face, "There will definitely be issues if they don't obediently give my sister what she deserves.

"My brother-in-law used to look down on me, but now it's his brother's turn to be the family disgrace. Isn't that hilarious?"

The Chamber of Commerce members each had their own agendas. But with the Montclair family holding so much leverage, they were eager to support whatever Landon said.

Edison, always cautious, asked, "Is anyone aware of this plan?" "Rest assured, not a single soul knows," Landon replied.
