Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 370

Leah Spencer was absolutely flabbergasted.

She never expected that even Thorne's involvement wouldn't resolve the issue.

“I just don't get it,” Leah stammered, “This is clearly just a minor issue. Can they really file a lawsuit and terminate the contract over something so trivial? That can't be right!”

Vesta chimed in, “I had our lawyer review the original contract between Neural Nexus Tech and PrimeStar. It clearly states that if one party damages the reputation of the other, the injured party has the right to terminate the contract.”

“But, but even if this incident did harm their reputation, the impact was minimal—”

Vesta explained, “True, the impact isn't huge. Normally, in such situations, we'd just need to mitigate the issue's impact on PrimeStar, offer an apology, and compensate for any losses. But—”

Henley interrupted, “If Vesta had acted immediately upon learning what you said and made sure you apologized, PrimeStar wouldn't have had any grounds for termination.”

“But instead, Vesta didn't immediately act to protect PrimeStar's interest or prompt you to apologize. Instead, when PrimeStar's employees stood up for their company, she blamed them for overreacting. This gives Stewart a valid reason to terminate the contract if he feels we've gone too far and can't trust us anymore.”

“In business, if someone wants to achieve a particular goal, all they need is a small conflict that they can blow out of proportion.”

Leah protested, “But my cousin did apologize as soon as she realized her mistake!”

“They can still argue that we only apologized because we realized the severe consequences of the contract termination, not out of genuine respect for the facts.”

Leah was at a loss for words.

Henley asked, “Is Stewart really that unwilling to budge?”

If they could persuade either Charlene or Stewart, the crisis could be averted.

Charlene was out of the question, but what about Stewart?

Vesta replied, “He was pretty firm about it on the phone.”

Everyone present understood that Stewart's insistence on terminating the contract was largely due to Charlene.

If they could somehow convince Stewart...

But how could they persuade him? They had no leverage.
