Chapter 237
Tanya thought so too.
It’s just that…
The cause of this matter was them….
Her image in Chase’s heart had always been very good.
If Chase found out about this, she wondered if he would think that she and her family were bullying Ashley, thus affecting her image in his heart.
Vivian naturally understood her thoughts.
No one knew the importance of a persona better than her.
That was the key to making a man love you forever!
Miranda naturally knew as well that the reason Chase loved Tanya so much was because she was special enough and good enough in his heart.
If Chase found out about this, it could indeed affect Tanya’s image in his heart.
Although handling it well might result in little impact, for Tanya, it certainly wasn’t a good thing.
Meru
She glanced at Catherine and said faintly, “Catherine is not young anymore. From now on, you really need to pay close attention to your every word and
action.”
If this matter isn’t handled well, the impact on their family could be fatal!
“I, I…”
Catherine had thought it was just a small matter, but now it had escalated to this point, and she was already scared. She hadn’t been seriously reprimanded like this in a long time, so she felt wronged but had to admit her mistake, saying, “I know, I’ll pay attention from now on.”
Miranda didn’t speak again.
Seeing Miranda blame her granddaughter, Mary naturally felt a bit uncomfortable.
But this matter indeed started because of Catherine.
If it really affected the future of Speed’s self-driving cars, the loss would indeed be too great.
Compared to that sum of money, Catherine being reprimanded was nothing.
Therefore, even though she felt uncomfortable, she didn’t argue for Catherine.
Anyway, this matter is not something they can hide even if they want to.
After all, if Eternal insists on terminating the contract, Chase will definitely find out sooner or later.
Tanya understood this, and Vivian and Miranda naturally understood it too.
The food had already been served.
But none of them touched their forks.
Because they had already lost their good mood for dining.
Tanya held her phone, thought for a moment, then took a deep breath, got up, left the private room, and called Chase.
On the other end, Chase quickly picked up:”Hello.”
“Sterling, Tanya said, something happened on my end…”
She briefly recounted what happened, then said, “Her attitude at that time was a bit aggressive, and I couldn’t stand anyone talking about my mother, so I
was misled for a moment, which led to the current situation.”
After Chase listened to her, he said, “You’re wrong. If you go to court, they won’t just demand contract termination and compensation for their company’s reputation loss. They’ll also demand liquidated damages from you, because on the surface, it’s your fault that your cooperation can’t
continue. Terminating the contract is also a loss for Eternal, and it’s impossible for him not to claim this part of the loss from you.”
Tanya was stunned and said, Tim didn’t mention this on the phone.”

He did it on purpose. He downplayed things to make you think there was still room to turn things around, so you’d drop your guard. Your call to Tim, admitting your mistake and apologizing, was actually a perfect opportunity for him to get something on you.” After he finished speaking, he added: “If I’m not mistaken, Tim has probably already recorded your conversation.”
Tanya stiffened. It was only then that she suddenly realized:”So she intentionally made me call Tim? The purpose was to make me leave evidence for
them?”
Chase: “Right.”
Tanya pursed her lips.
She never expected Ashley to be so scheming.
And only now did she understand that this matter was far more difficult to handle than she had imagined.
After pondering for a while, she came back to her senses and asked:”Then this matter…”
Chase was frank: “I might not be able to solve it. Eternal is protected by the government; I can’t touch Tim.”
What about approaching the Jones Family?
Although Tanya thought this, she didn’t say it out loud.
Because she knew that if Chase didn’t bring it up himself, she absolutely couldn’t say it.
She just wondered if Chase would consider that approach to help her, even if she didn’t mention it…
They chatted for a while longer before hanging up.
Back in the private room, Mary quickly asked:”What did Chase say?”
He said he’d help me mediate, but… he’s not confident he can make Tim drop the idea of canceling the contract with us.”
Compared to that, Vivian was actually more concerned about another matter:”Did Chase say anything about this?”
After all, no matter how important the self-driving car project was, it wasn’t as important as Chase.
Whether Chase’s feelings for her daughter had changed or not, that was the top priority.
Vivian didn’t say it explicitly, but Tanya knew what she meant.
Hearing this, a sweetness welled up in her heart, and she said, “Chase told me not to worry, said he would help deal with things. As for blaming me, he didn’t say a single word.”
Hearing this, Vivian finally felt relieved.
Miranda and Mary also breathed a sigh of relief.
Catherine’s mood also improved:”I knew it, Chase loves you so much, he wouldn’t possibly stop loving you or blame you because of such a small
matter!”
Of course, she was happy that Chase loved her.
But today, she had lost face, dignity, and money.
Tanya said calmly, “Chase and my affairs are one thing, but Catherine, I don’t want anything like this to happen again, do you understand?”
This was the first time Tanya had been so serious.
Catherine’s neck went cold, and she shrunk her neck, saying, “I, I know, I promise I won’t talk nonsense again…”
