“Can I help you, Mom?” Cecilia found it peculiar when he received a call from Elena.
The latter was clearly annoyed. “Who gave you the right to casually make a bet with Miranda? How many years has she been with the company, and how many have you? You simply don’t understand Orion Corporation, let alone Imminence Corporation. Did you not know that she’s planning to embarrass you publicly at the company in a few days, with both me and your grandfather present?”
Although not fond of Cecilia, Elena had a clear understanding of who was family and who was an outsider.
She couldn’t possibly let Miranda walk all over her own daughter–in–law.
“I really had no idea about this,” admitted Cecilia, having just learned that Miranda had approached Aston and Elena. It could be that Miranda was worried about her not keeping her word, or perhaps she simply wanted to humiliate her in front of the entire Rainsworth family.
Elena’s disdain for Cecilia deepened as she heard this. “Let me tell you this: running a company is not the same as composing music. Besides, you’re now Nathaniel’s wife. If you lose to Miranda, where would that leave Nathaniel’s dignity?”
After a round of criticism, she then continued, “I heard you need a supplier from Imminence Corporation. I’ll send you some money. Use it to sort things out.”
In other words, Elena was willing to suffer a loss, even going as far as to pay the suppliers herself just to ensure others would continue to work with Orion Corporation.
However, this would essentially be cheating.
“There’s no need, Mom. I have my own plans. Don’t worry about it. I won’t embarrass Nathaniel, and certainly not you either.”
Cecilia paused before adding, “Still, thank you for your kind intentions. I appreciate it, but I need to get back to work now.”
With that, she hung up the phone.
Elena was flabbergasted. She had assumed that her intervention would have been met with gratitude, only for Cecilia to turn her down.
She doesn’t know what’s good for her! She can’t afford to be this ignorant.
With that in mind, the older woman had her own assistant personally handle matters with the suppliers.
Cassandra had been secretly listening in all along, aware that Elena was planning to aid Cecilia. Once alone, she gave Miranda a call.
“Don’t say I didn’t warn you, Miranda. Elena is gearing up to help Cecilia. She has lots of connections money, so dealing with suppliers will be a piece of cake for her.”
Hearing this, Miranda finally understood why Cecilia was always so composed and unconcerned about
failure at all.
“I was wondering why she’s so calm. It turns out she’s enlisted Elena’s help, huh?”

Miranda was also fearful of Elena, fully aware that given the latter’s influence, she was simply no match for her.
Now that Cassandra had informed her about this, though, all she needed to do was to find evidence of Elena assisting Cecilia. Exposing such deceitful tactics would be enough to bring about Cecilia’s downfal
“Thanks.” After expressing her gratitude, Miranda ended the call.
