Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 181

“Alright, I’ve got to go.” Lydia was about to hang up.

Juna called out quickly. “Wait, hold on. That kid from the Jefferson family is still looking for you. He keeps trying to challenge you to a race. Honestly, he’s so persistent it’s almost sweet. Are you really not going to give him a chance?”

Lydia answered without missing a beat. “No time.”

“Okay then, girl.”

On the other side of town, at LYLX headquarters, Jenson waited with anxious eyes, watching Ethan finish his phone call. As soon as Ethan put his phone down, Jenson rushed over, forcing a smile. “Mr. Reed, if there’s anything we’ve done wrong at Smith Corporation, please just tell us. We can fix it, really. But about the partnership…”

“I’m sorry. From today on, we won’t be working with Smith Corporation anymore. Bryce, please show him out.”

Ethan’s voice was ice cold, and he didn’t hesitate to call his assistant over.

Jenson wasn’t ready to give up. He looked desperate, like he might start crying any second.

“Mr. Reed, please, even if you won’t work with us anymore, can you at least tell us why?”

He hadn’t slept at all last night, worrying about this. LYLX was their biggest client, the one that made Smith Corporation look good. Without LYLX backing them, Smith Corporation would fall apart and get swallowed up by the competition. The thought alone was enough to make him panic.

“A reason? You really don’t know?” Ethan used to have respect for Jenson. He thought they were Lydia’s biological parents, even though the Smiths had never treated Lydia right.

But now, everything had changed.

They broke Lydia’s heart and kicked her out of her own home.

Without Lydia, their company would never become so soccessful.
