Selena was the only person he could count on, so Roland had no choice but to lower himself. “I heard that Fowler Corporation has acquired LAYA and is planning to collaborate with you?” He gazed at her with a toady expression on his face.
I just knew that he came because of this! “Yes,” Selena replied as she reviewed the documents.
“Why don’t you let our company join in the collaboration? Look, Fowler Corporation seldom establishes clothing brands, and that’s why there was a problem with LAYA. Meanwhile, JNS Corporation’s Forever Gown is only a wedding dress brand, thus having no experience with everyday clothes. However, our family has been doing that for many years, no?” Roland gazed at her fawningly.
“No way.” Selena declined without the slightest hesitation.
Roland suppressed his anger at her swift and blunt dismissal. “What’s the big deal if you let our family’s company join in? Are you afraid of losing money when there’s such a huge backer like Fowler Corporation?”
“I said no, so it’s no. This matter is non-negotiable.” Selena’s answer was still firm and unforgiving.
At this, Roland slammed his hand on the table. “You ungrateful brat! I raised you throughout the years, yet this is how you repay me?”
Raising her head, Selena stared at him. “It’s not just me you raised. There are still Megan and Meredith. Meredith is the future mistress of the Fowler Family, so isn’t it even better if you were to ask her to seek help from the Fowlers?”
It wasn’t that Roland never thought of having Meredith go to Pierre directly, but after discussing the matter with Jezebelle, they both felt that it wasn’t prudent to do so. After all, she hadn’t yet married into the family, so the marriage was still uncertain. It’d be bad if something happened and they ruined her marriage. “She isn’t married yet! To have her seek help from her future in-laws before even marrying into the family would make her look bad!” he bellowed.
