Eden Swan picked up his phone. "Joshua Lawrence."
"Brother-in-law, did it work? Was Jeanne fuming in anger? I was so excited for the entire afternoon just thinking about it." Joshua's excitement was indescribable when he thought about Jeanne being chased out of the family.
Eden's expression turned ugly at Joshua's excitement. "Joshua Lawrence, are you sure you gave me the final proposal?"
"Yes, I gave you the proposal the moment I got it. Didn't you remind me that there might be changes when it goes to the board of directors? You asked me to keep an eye on it, so I asked one of the board members. Jeanne's proposal was approved by the board of directors, word for word."
"Including the investment amount?"
"Yes." Joshua was very certain.
"But right now, Jeanne's investment amount is 2.2 billion."
"That's impossible!" Joshua Lawrence's expression immediately changed to one in disbelief.
"It's not impossible if it's the truth. Jeanne Lawrence has secured the MUK proposal."
"How could this happen?" Joshua could not accept the situation. He raised his voice and said, "Didn't you say that Jeanne would be kicked out of the Lawrence Enterprise after this? You even told her to scram!"
"Enough! If not for the error in the message you sent me, would I have failed?" Eden was furious.
"1 gave you the final proposal, I swear!" Joshua refused to let go.
"What's the point of swearing? In the end, Jeanne succeeded, and we were all tricked by her!"
"1 knew Jeanne wasn't dumb. She's a smart woman. You must have let your guard down. It must be your fault..." "You're blaming me? Joshua Lawrence, know your place. What right do you have to blame me?" Eden said in a menacing tone.
Joshua was so furious that he could not retort.
"Let me ask you one last time. Did the board of directors approve more than 2 billion for the investment?"
"I'm sure they did not!" Joshua said fiercely.
"Then Jeanne must have changed the documents after approval by the board of directors. If it's her own doing, then this proposal will no longer be valid."
