Ray’s scalp went numb as he took call after call.

Marilyn, lying in her hospital bed, felt the same prickle of panic as she listened in.

After Ray had taken twenty or thirty calls, Marilyn’s pale face turned rigid as she looked at him. “They’re all threatening to sue?”

She’d heard every word of those conversations clearly.

Customs had just called to say their products were banned from Germany, and now all these business partners were calling to back out of contracts and threaten lawsuits.

For them to get the news this fast… someone had to be pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Ray nodded grimly. “Yeah, they’re all saying if we can’t meet our contract obligations, we’ll have to pay huge breach of contract fees.”

Those amounts were no joke.

This chain reaction was giving Marilyn no time to catch her breath.

“Mom, you have to stand up for me. How dare Aurelia humiliate me like this?”

Marilyn already had a splitting headache, and seeing Lauren in this state only made her more irritable. “What now?”

Lauren ranted, “She’s trying to steal my stuff! Jason just came over with papers for me to sign… Transfer agreements and a huge list of things I have to give back!”

Lauren clenched her fists. “She’s going too far! Haven’t I been humiliated enough by her these past few days?

“Now she’s doing this to me. What am I supposed to do? I just had babies, I can’t even recover properly.”

The more Lauren talked, the angrier she got, until she broke down sobbing.

Marilyn’s expression darkened even more. “These are trivial things. Just give her what she wants.”

She didn’t have time for such petty issues right now.

In her eyes, what Lauren was going through was nothing compared to the mess with her international business.

did you say?”

Give it back to her?

Lauren stared at Marilyn in disbelief. “This isn’t about giving things back! She’s humiliating me, Mom. You have to get justice for me.”

Lauren had always been a little scared of Marilyn. But now, pushed too far by Aurelia, she’d completely lost her cool.

Marilyn snapped back, “Justice? You can’t even handle some nobody girl with no background, and you expect me to get justice for you?”

Lauren fell silent.

Marilyn added, “You know you just had babies. Why don’t you use those twins to fix your problems?”

After all, she was now a major contributor to the Hawthorne family.

For something this small, she still needed to run to Marilyn for help?

Lauren had been angry before, but now Marilyn’s scolding

She snuffled, tears streaming down her face.

Marilyn sighed in frustration. “All you do is cry!”

Ray stepped in, “Ms. Drake, whatever issues you’re having, you

should ask Madam Hawthorne to resolve them. Mrs. Drake is in a bad mood right now. Please go back to your room.”

He still needed to discuss their next move with Marilyn.

Marilyn really didn’t have the time to deal with the fight between Lauren and Aurelia right now.

She spat out two cold words. “Go back!”

Faced with Marilyn’s attitude, Lauren’s eyes turned even redder. “Mom~”

Marilyn lost her temper completely. “Enough! You can’t even handle such a small thing. Useless!”

She was already swamped with the German crisis, and Lauren’s fussing was pushing her to the edge of her patience.

Seeing Marilyn’s anger flare up, Lauren didn’t dare say

word.

“Yes, miss.”

The caregiver quickly wheeled Lauren away.

Left alone with Ray, Marilyn closed her eyes, her head throbbing. “Set up a meeting with Aurelia!”

She never thought Aurelia could cause so much trouble.

Once this crisis was over, she’d take care of her.

Ray didn’t agree with Marilyn lowering herself to meet such a young girl.

He said, “Shouldn’t we meet with Mr. Fletcher instead?”

Meeting with Aurelia now would be giving her too much credit. And in Ray’s opinion, that was the last thing they should do.

Marilyn thought for a moment and nodded.

But Grant… just thinking about him gave Marilyn another headache.

“Can you get Grant to come here?” she asked.

She couldn’t leave the hospital right now; her whole body was
