Chapter 151 The Harrison Legacy
+8 Pearls
Zynn had just arrived and was sitting beside Melody, asking about the past few days‘ work. When she caught sight of the scene unfolding nearby, she propped up her chin and smiled.
As the PR director of Quinn Group, Zynn took pride in her beauty. Her black evening gown flowed elegantly, and just sitting there, smiling at Mario, she was already drawing attention from several men nearby.
But Zynn had always been indifferent in this area.
Sure, she could talk business, drink like a pro, and chat about anything under the sun. Men came and went at her command. But the truth was, she had never truly loved anyone.
Beauty was enough. That alone kept her satisfied.
“Mr. Mario sure can hold his liquor. The banquet hasn’t even started yet–try not to get drunk too early,” Zynn said lightly.
Mario glanced at her. “I’ll be fine.”
“Drinking while in a bad mood makes it easier to get drunk. Be careful. The Harrison family actually sent Fabien and Wen Meiyun tonight. Guess that means none of the younger generation is worth anything.”
Chase, worried about Mario’s reaction, asked quietly, “Are you nervous to see him?”
Nervous?
Mario searched himself and found

Wa
trace of nervousness. In fact, he was excited.
“No. I’ve been waiting to see him for a long time–just didn’t expect it to be at something like this,” Mario replied, turning his head to look.
Seeing Fabien meant the beginning of his counterattack. Of course Mario was excited. But still, the reality of the moment struck him hard–Fabien stood before him, completely unharmed, while Wen Meiyun still carried herself like some high–society matron.
Why?
If the Harrison family hadn’t refused to let my mother through the front door, if they hadn’t forced her to live as the woman kept outside, she wouldn’t have died in childbirth just because she couldn’t reach anyone in time.
Why do the ones who destroyed her still get to stand here like nothing ever happened?
“More than half of Larry’s properties have been seized. You already bought them up?” Wendy asked, trying to shift the mood.
Mario nodded. “Just small holdings. But going through them helped me spot something–the Harrison family’s core assets are still under Fabien’s control. And look at Drake Bay. After all these years, it’s still not finished.”
