Laila smiled lightly and continued, “Business is difficult in every industry these days. Jenna, there’s no need to feel guilty. I’m sure Princess Morgana can understand as well, right, Your Highness?”

Laila turned her head and looked at Morgana.

Morgana stared back at her, baffled. What are you looking at me for? Before coming in, you clearly told me not to speak unless necessary, and now you’re asking me?

But under Laila’s subtle gaze, she could only nod stiffly. “Right.”

Laila accepted that single word. “Exactly. We can’t blame Jenna; Business is simply hard.”

Jenna quickly nodded. “Yes, yes. Business really is difficult.”

Laila took out the cooperation agreement. “I’ve read this contract. Princess Morgana holds 70% of Cloria’s. Aside from the initial investment, she has also repeatedly contributed additional funds over the years, all properly recorded. Jenna, I believe you hold the remaining 30%, correct?”

Jenna felt something was slightly off, though she couldn’t pinpoint what. She could only nod. “Of course, when additional funding was needed, I also contributed my 30%.”

Laila nodded. “That’s reasonable.”

“Of course, it’s reasonable,” Jenna said quickly, staring at Laila. What exactly is she planning? Has she seen the accounts or not?

And how had that shop manager not reported that Morgana had sent people to retrieve the account books?

Such negligence would have to be dealt with later.

Estelle, observing everything carefully, immediately understood that Laila must have already seen the accounts and come because she knew the business was profitable.

These books must have been taken directly from Cloria’s. The shop manager had likely been caught off guard, and he might already be under interrogation at Frostwind Pack. Those weak–willed types would confess everything under pressure.

Then, Laila said, “Since Jenna says it’s reasonable, then it is settled. If contributions are split seventy–thirty during losses, then profits should naturally also be split seventy–thirty.”

Laila opened one of the boxes and took out the top account book. “This is the record organized by the Frostwind Pack butler after a full day of calculations. Jenna, it turns out that although business outside has been poor in recent years, Cloria’s has actually been quite profitable.”

Jenna’s expression changed, “What? Profitable? That’s impossible! We just injected subsidies into the shop two months ago!”

She grabbed the account book and flipped through it. When she saw the final figure, her pupils contracted sharply. “That’s impossible. This isn’t the real ledger!”

Estelle frowned. “It’s real.”

“Mother?” Jenna looked up sharply.

She didn’t understand why her mother was undermining her. At a moment like this, they should be denying everything.

However, Estelle saw the confusion in her eyes and inwardly sighed. How foolish. The books had been taken directly from Cloria’s, so there would definitely be witnesses. And the handwriting could be verified against the shop manager’s. There was no way to simply deny it.
