Chapter 103
“Impossible!” Marianne shrieked, as if someone had stepped on her tail. “She’s just
a country girl we brought back from the slums! Her biological parents were nobodies from the ghetto. How could she have that kind of power p>
Marianne let out a cold laugh. “Ever since you came back from the hospital, you’ve been rambling about being wrong, all wrong, saying Serena knows medicine and is some kind of master doctor. I think you’ve just gone crazy from working nonstop p>
“I know exactly what Serena is capable of, and it isn’t much! If she really had that kind of ability, she would have shown it off long ago, desperate for us to give her a second glance p>
Logan looked up weakly. “But… but how could it be such a coincidence p>
“It only proves that Serena is a jinx! A curse on all of us!” Marianne cut him off, grinding her teeth. “It’s because you ran into that damn girl that we’ve had such bad luck p>
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
They had one encounter with Serena, and the Wynn family suffered such a huge disaster.
Thankfully, she had made the decisive choice to kick Serena out of the family when she did.
Otherwise, who knows how much worse their luck would have gotten!
“It’s because you ran into that curse that the Lancaster Group canceled the deal!” Marianne glared at her son. “The Wynn family had barely received the offer from the Lancasters, nothing was even finalized, and the two of you were already running around bragging about it p>
“Now that the Lancaster family has pulled out, all those opportunists are afraid of offending them, so they’re kicking us while we’re down p>
She turned to Patrick. “Honey, our top priority right now is to beg the Lancaster family for forgiveness. As long as they agree to give us the contract back, those other companies will come running back with their tails between their legs p>
It was their only option now.
Patrick clenched his fists. “You’re right! We’ll go beg the Lancaster family p>
He kicked Logan again. “And you, you’re going to get on your knees and apologize to them p>
The secretary trembled nearby. “What about… Titancrest Group and NovaForge Capital p>
“If the Lancaster family relents,
those two will come crawling back, begging me to renew their
contracts!” Patrick’s face was grimy “We absolutely cannot lose the Lancaster deal p>
“Mom, Dad,” Hailey said, holding her phone and looking at a post on her social media feed. “A friend of mine said the Lancaster family booked a private room at Le Celeste tonight. It seems like they’re celebrating something.net
Patrick’s eyes lit up. “Really p>
Hailey nodded confidently. “Absolutely certain p>
“Good. Then we’ll go to Le Céleste tonight and intercept them!” He had been wondering how to track down the Lancasters, thinking his only option was to camp out at thei corporate headquarters te hadn’t expected Hailey to have their location.
Marianne beamed and pulled Hailey into a hug. “Oh, Hailey, you really are our little lucky star p>
Unlike Serena, who only ever brought them bad luck.
Hailey smiled sweetly. “I’m just happy I can help Mom and Dad p>
Logan rubbed his bruised backside, a sour feeling growing in his stomach as he watched the harmonious mother-daughter scene.
If it had been Serena p>
If he had been kicked that badly, Serena would have rushed over immediately to check on him and get him some medicine.
But maybe… it was because Hailey had just returned to the family. She was just getting used to having a family again and didn’t know how to interact with so many new relatives.
Once Hailey fully embraced this family, she would be better.
