"And Adeline, touch your own conscience. How much profit have I given to the Smith Group in the past two years in order to make up for the mistakes made by Angela?
No matter how you do the math, it's our Chante family that's losing out!"
Hearing this, Elva's tears fell down as she thought about her life over the past two years.
Lorenzo pointed at the door, "Since you don't even appreciate what our Chante family has done, and you still feel that your Smith is being aggrieved, then fine. You will now get out with your two children, and from now on our two families will be cut off and never see each other again!!!"
In the past two years he had been ambling around, Adeline did not expect him to say that. She shortly froze, speechless for a long time.
"Dad, you're finally acting like a man!"
The stifled feeling in Greyson's heart finally decreased, and he tilted his chin slightly, pointed at the door and hissed.
"Can you understand my father?
Go away!"
Adeline came back to her senses, her face red with anger, pulling Jessica and Danis to leave.
"Mom, calm down."
She did not use much strength either, and Jessica pulled her in easily.
Danis' handsome face was a blistering mess, but he did not refute his sister's approach.
"Uncle Lorenzo, I don't think you would have done this until now if you really wanted to cut ties with the Smiths.
So I'm going to hazard a guess that by saying all this and listing all the things you've done in the last two years, you're trying to let us know that it's been a rough two years for you too, and hope that we can understand."
Jessica said in a soft voice.
Lorenzo took the medicine Elva handed over, tilted his head and drank it down without making a sound.
Greyson was amused and taunted.
"A bitch just thinks too much!
But I'm sorry; our Chante family really wants to cut ties with shameless people like you this time!"
This was nothing pleasant to ears, and Danis' eyebrows knitted together as he was just about to say something, but Jessica stopped him.
She gave him a wink, signaling him to keep quiet, and then continued.
"Uncle Lorenzo, what my mother said and did today was indeed a bit too much, so I'll apologize to you for her first."
Adeline did not feel like it was her fault today, and wanted to say something else, but Danis interrupted her, "Mom, leave the rest to Jessica, don't make a mess", and pulled her back.
"Who the hell is going to accept your apology?"
Because of what happened to Angela, Greyson did not have any good feelings towards the Smiths, ''Get out!
Now get out with your mother and Danis. You are not welcome in our house!"
Danis' brow knitted a little tighter, a gloomy look under his eyes.
Jessica looked at Lorenzo as if she had not heard Greyson’s words, with sincere attitude, "Our two families have been friends for decades, if we really break it off because of a small matter, it will definitely make us a laughing stock for the onlookers!
And as Uncle Lorenzo should be well aware that our two companies' businesses are intricately intertwined. I'm afraid if they were to really dissolve their cooperation, both sides would be suffer from a great loss."
"I was angry and out of breath just now."
Lorenzo went along with the step she gave, "If you weren't here today, the two families were really cut off by grace because of what I just said in anger, then it would be my fault."
Greyson's mouth was slightly open, his eyes filled with surprise and anger, not understanding why the situation had taken a sudden turn.
"I don't blame Uncle Lorenzo for this matter, and it's really because my mother was a bit capricious.
I heard that Uncle Lorenzo gave the piece of land in G city to James, it just so happens that our family also has a piece of land there. We want to build a large amusement park, however there are some problems with the capital chain, I wonder if you are interested in participating as a partner?"
Jessica laughed.
The Smith Group and the Chante Group had cooperated for many years, and Lorenzo could not be clearer if the other party had problems with the capital chain on the amusement park project.
The Smith Group's amusement park project in G City had an extremely high return on investment and no problems with funding, but now Jessica was asking him if he was interested in taking a share, clearly showing goodwill for what had just happened.
