Chapter 107 A New Strategy

If Ms. Bennett has earned both Madam Kate’s and the boss’s favor, she must have some redeeming qualities. A rare gem. from a rotten tree, indeed.

Josh found himself feeling a shred of sympathy for Lauren.

At Skyline Medical Center

David slammed his phone onto the bed, his face dark with rage.

Willow flinched at the sudden outburst and quickly stepped closer, “Dad, what happened? Did Mr. Brooker refuse again?”

David gritted his teeth, his voice filled with resentment “That bastard is impossible to get through to. Last time, we tried to arrange a marriage between him and that little wretch, Lauren–he rejected it. This time, we invited him to dinner and even arranged some beautiful women to accompany him, and he turned that down too!”

His chest heaved with barely contained fury,

Willow frowned, “But isn’t he supposed to be a notorious playboy? How could he reject them so easily?”

“Who knows?” David slammed his fist on the table, making everything on it tremble.

If they couldn’t secure the Eastgate project, the Bennett family would have no place in Hoverdale’s elite circles. How could he not be desperate?

Willow’s eyes gleamed with an idea, her voice dropping slightly. “Dad, what if the rumors were wrong? What if Mr. Brooker isn’t actually the type to indulge in women?”

David narrowed his eyes, considering her words. After moment, he nodded. “It doesn’t matter whether he is or isn’t. What matters is that we must be part of the Eastgate project. If one approach doesn’t work, we’ll try another.”

A sly smile crept onto Willow’s lips. “Dad, I heard Madam Kate’s birthday is next month. Why don’t we prepare an extravagant gift and visit her in person? It might be our chance to get in with the Brooker family.”

David’s eyes lit up. “Willow, you’re sharp. That might actually work. If we win over Madam Kate, Felix won’t be able to refuse us.”

Willow beamed with satisfaction. “But we need to choose the gift carefully. It has to be something she truly desires.”

David nodded, but soon, his expression turned grim. “The Brooker family is the most prestigious in Balewood. They’ve seen every luxury imaginable. Finding a gift that stands out won’t be easy.”

“Not to mention, the birthday banquet will be filled with prestigious guests. Every present will be rare and worth a fortune. If we want Madam Kate to notice ours, we need something extraordinary.”

Willow tapped her chin, then smirked. “As long as we cater to her tastes, she’s bound to like it.”

A flicker of something crossed her eyes, and she made decision, “Dad, I need to go to Halewood.”

Finished

David immediately understood her intent. “You want to go there yourself and figure out what Madam Kate -likes?”

Willow nodded. “The Bennett family must secure a share in the Eastgate project. If we succeed, you’ll solidify your position in the company. The board will trust you more. And once they do, we can push them. to pressure Mom into handing over the rest of her shares. When that happens, the entire Bennett Corporation will be ours.”

David didn’t hesitate. “Good idea. And it’s best if you lay low for now. I have a feeling Kenneth is already suspicious of you.”

Willow had thought the same.

Kenneth might have stopped Elaine from pointing fingers at her, but that wasn’t because he was on her side.

He had never truly cared about her. His heart had always belonged to Lauren.

He wasn’t protecting her–he was protecting himself.

If Elaine’s accuss turned out to be true, Kenneth would have to face the fact that he had wrongly‘

blamed Lauren.

And once that truth came out, everything he did to Lauren would be a cruel joke.

Their relationship would be beyond repair.
