“Okay.”

When William Scott said that, Xenia Lewis did not know what to say and just mumbled it casually.

Simon Jaber was overjoyed. He quickly said, “Thank you, Miss Xenia Lewis. I’ll arrange for another person to make a transfer right away.”

“Ah… but the contract…”

“We’ll go through the procedures with the contract later. It’s more important for you to develop the company first. It’s settled then. Thank you again, Miss Xenia Lewis. I’ll personally apologize to Miss Lin later on.”

After hanging up, Xenia Lewis handed the phone back to Delilah Xenos. Her mind was still in a daze.

Everyone was also silent. At this moment, everyone’s minds were clearly similar to Xenia Lewis’s. They had not recovered from their shock at all.

“Bam!” Delilah Xenos was the first to come back to her senses. She came in front of Xenia Lewis and raised her hand to give herself a loud slap. Then, she knelt down with a thud and said, “Xenia Lewis, it’s all my fault. I was blinded by greed and came to find trouble with you. I’m horrid!” As she spoke, she gave herself two more slaps.

“What are you doing? Get up!” Xenia Lewis retreated in fear and almost fell into William Scott’s arms. Thankfully, William Scott held onto her waist.

A clear palm print appeared on Delilah Xenos’s face. It could be seen that she had not been gentle with herself. Tears were flowing out of her eyes as she said, “It wasn’t easy for me to get to where I am now. It wasn’t easy for me to get to this position. Xenia Lewis, I beg you. Please tell President Jaber not to fire me. I really know I was wrong. I won’t do it again.”

Xenia Lewis was completely frightened by Delilah Xenos. She stammered, “You… get up first. We can talk things out.”

“If you don’t agree, then I won’t get up.” Delilah Xenos knew that her fate depended on William Scott. She did not know William Scott, so she could not ask him for help. William Scott had also made things difficult for her because she had offended Xenia Lewis. As long as she could get Xenia Lewis’s forgiveness, then there would be a chance.

Xenia Lewis had never encountered such a situation before. She had no idea how to deal with it.

William Scott said calmly, “If President Jaber didn’t call, what would have happened? You know better than anyone else that some things come with consequences that you have to bear. If you don’t want President Jaber to pursue this matter, you should leave.”

Delilah Xenos’s face was filled with fear. Simon Jaber was not an ordinary person. He was a ruthless person. Now, she was just fired. If he pursued the matter of her offending Xenia Lewis, she would have to bear the consequences.

What William Scott meant was that this matter would come to an end here. It could be considered as an acceptable outcome. She smiled bitterly and slowly got up. She said to Xenia Lewis, “Xenia Lewis, you really have a good cousin-in-law.” There was indescribable envy in her words, but she dared not speak with a hint of jealousy anymore.

The corners of Xenia Lewis’s mouth twitched. She didn’t know how to face Delilah Xenos. Even if Delilah Xenos had treated her like that just now, seeing that Delilah Xenos was already in such a miserable state, she couldn’t do anything to add insult to injury.

Delilah Xenos left in a daze, as did the people she brought with her. The two of them were feeling uneasy now. They didn’t know if they would be implicated when they returned to the company.

In the office, other than William Scott and Xenia Lewis, there was also Joan Cairn.

At that moment, Joan Cairn’s expression was extremely awful. Her lips quivered and she whispered, “Xenia, I…”

Xenia Lewis also looked at Joan Cairn and his emotions became extremely complicated. She opened her mouth and said, “Joan…”

Joan Cairn quickly said, “Xenia, I wasn’t really going to withdraw. Delilah Xenos forced me to. I am not withdrawing anymore.”

Xenia Lewis subconsciously wanted to agree, but William Scott said, “Before signing, I asked you if you were sure. You were already very sure at that time, so… let’s just leave it at that.”

Tears flowed from Joan Cairn’s eyes and she burst into tears. Covering her face with her hands, she ran out.

Just a moment ago, she was about to become a shareholder of a company with a valuation of 50 million. However, she had given up just before that could happen. If she had persevered and stayed with Xenia Lewis on account of their friendship, or if Delilah Xenos had come earlier, before she had signed the contract, the outcome would have been different.

But now, she had only taken the 200,000 dollars that she had invested and had given up the best opportunity in her life. She was filled with regret.

Xenia Lewis looked at William Scott bitterly and said, “William, Joan has been working alongside me for more than two years. She was just blinded for a moment.”

William Scott shook his head and said, “In the face of benefits, she’s already sold you out once, so it’s hard to guarantee that there won’t be a second time. Moreover, can you really trust her as much as you used to? Will you really not guard against her at all?”

“Well…” Lin Xuan was speechless.

William Scott patted Xenia Lewis’s shoulder and said, “So, instead of being on guard against each other in the future, it’s better to just break it off. This is to prevent everyone from having more conflicts over future benefits. Furthermore, what right does she have to enjoy your benefits?”

Xenia Lewis shook her head. She knew that she should put Joan Cairn’s matter aside. She then looked at William Scott with a strange look in her eyes.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” William Scott took a step back on purpose, looking scared.

Xenia Lewis’s gaze turned fierce as well. She closed in until she forced William Scott to lean against the wall. Only then did she stop in her tracks. She snorted and said, “Not bad, my cousin-in-law. Still water runs deep with you. With just a phone call, you managed to get the President of Millennium Productions to beg me to cooperate and give me such a large sum of money.”

When she thought of this, Xenia Lewis was shocked once again. Five million dollars, what a huge favor to William Scott that was. They couldn’t just be as simple as friends.

William Scott grinned. “Actually, it’s just that he owes me a favor. He can’t wait to return it to me. It just so happens that he has the opportunity to return the favor.”

“A favor? How big of a favor is that?”

“When he went abroad in the past, I happened to be on a mission. By chance, I saved his life.”

Xenia Lewis widened her eyes and said, “You saved his life? Such a boss with a net worth of 10 billion actually only repaid you with five million, and it’s even an investment. Why do I feel like this is a loss?”

William Scott made Xenia Lewis laugh out loud and said, “It seems like it was indeed a loss. Should I get him to invest more?”

Xenia Lewis was so frightened that he immediately shouted, “No! Five million… I don’t even know how to use that much money. If I have too much money, I’ll be afraid of messing up.” Then, she burst out laughing.
