Chapter 90: Old Madam Taylor Compromises!
“Grandma!”
When she saw Old Madam Taylor fuming with anger, Serena hurriedly reminded her.
Old Madam Taylor took a deep breath and calmed herself down. Then, she looked at Serena and nodded at her.
Then, Old Madam Taylor said sulkily, “Fine! Since you insist on making me apologize to you, then I will apologize to you today! But, let me warn you first.
After I apologize to you today, Brianne, you have to go back and be the general manager. Otherwise, you can forget about seeing your father’s ashes!”
After saying that, Old Madam Taylor held her walking stick as she stood up reluctantly and bowed to Brianne and Bruce.
Then, she said reluctantly, “I was wrong and made you two suffer. I hope you two can forgive me.”
After apologizing insincerely, Old Madam Taylor immediately straightened her back and said snappily, “Are you satisfied now? Can you let Brianne go back to be the general manager?!”
“Bruce, Grandma has apologized. Why don’t we forget about it?” Brianne advised.
Bruce sneered and continued to say playfully, “You seem to be in a hurry to let Brianne go back. Let me guess. Are you afraid that Zane Co. will target you too?”
When she heard this, Old Madam Taylor’s expression changed abruptly, as if she was afraid that Brianne would go back on her words. “That… that’s not true! What nonsense!”
“You guys know very well whether it’s true or not.” Bruce sneered.
At this moment, Serena couldn’t help but say, “Even if it’s true, so what!? You created this mess yourself. Shouldn’t you be the one to bear the responsibility!?”
“If you didn’t use Zane Co.’s name to deceive the Richards and Freeman families, would they bother us?”
“If you’re a man, then take the responsibility that you should take on. Don’t always drag the people around you down!”
“Serena, shut up! Don’t you dare slander my brother like that! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I’ll leave Porta with my brother immediately!” Brianne said with a determined look in her eyes.
Brianne, who was usually mild-mannered, was now defending Bruce toughly.
“Enough! All of you, shut up!”
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Old Madam Taylor hurriedly opened her mouth and pulled Serena behind her.
She threatened Brianne word by word, “I’ve already done what you asked me to do. Despite my old age, I still have to apologize to you two juniors. I’ve already done enough!
The predicament the Taylor family is facing now was all caused by him. If the Taylor family were to fall, it wouldn’t be good for the both of you. Don’t forget that your father’s ashes are still in the Taylor family!
You have to be the general manager no matter what! If I don’t see the both of you appear at the Taylor family tomorrow, then don’t blame me for being heartless!”
After threatening Brianne, Old Madam Taylor said coldly, “Serena! Let’s go!”
After the two of them left, Brianne stood there helplessly with mixed feelings.
It turned out that Bruce was really helping her. He even used the name of Zane Co. to deceive people to help her.
It was all because she was useless. It was because of her that he did this and was targeted by Zane Co..
Thinking of this, Brianne felt extremely guilty. She couldn’t help but comfort him, “Bruce, it’s okay. You don’t have to worry about the Taylor family. I’m here.”
After saying this, Brianne had a bitter and listless look on her face.
Bruce gently rubbed her head. “Have you really decided to go back to the Taylor family? If it’s for me, you don’t have to.
In my eyes, Zane Co. is nothing. As long as I want to, I can solve this problem at any time.
So, you don’t have to worry about me, and you don’t have to return to the Taylor family for me.”
After hearing these words, Brianne squeezed out a smile.
How could she not know that the current Bruce was no longer a match for Zane Co.? He only said that to take on all of this for her.
But how could she bear to let him take on all of this alone?
Thus, Brianne smiled and shook her head. She pretended to be fine and said, “Bruce, you don’t have to persuade me anymore. I’ve already decided. I’ll go back tomorrow.”
Seeing that Brianne was so insistent, Bruce didn’t say anything else. He only said that he would accompany her tomorrow.
When Brianne heard that, she immediately became anxious. She knew that the Taylor family would definitely be waiting to give them a hard time tomorrow. How could she bear to let Bruce suffer with her?
However, Bruce’s insistence made her feel a little helpless, so she could only give up.
..
That night, after Old Madam Taylor and Serena returned to the Taylor family, they announced the news of Brianne becoming the general manager.
At the beginning, Zeke and his wife still had some objections, but after listening to Serena’s explanation, they both agreed.
Not only that, but Zeke even took the initiative to mentionDraco.
In his opinion, it was almost certain now that Draco had taken care of the Taylor family previously because he had been swindled by Bruce.
Now, those channel merchants had left, which meant that Draco already knew the truth.
In that case, the ten million that Draco had given to the Taylor family previously was no different from a hot potato.
Although the money had been frozen by the bank, in his opinion, this money had to be returned no matter what.
Things would be bad for them if they offended Draco and his next step might be to target the Taylor family.
After listening to Zeke’s analysis, Old Madam Taylor also nodded in agreement.
“Zeke is right. Draco isn’t someone the Taylor family can afford to provoke. When Brianne comes back tomorrow, take the opportunity to settle this matter together.” Old Madam Taylor said.
After that, she looked at Zeke and said, “Zeke, I’ll leave this matter to you to handle. No matter what, you have to contact Draco. We’ll apologize to him in person tomorrow to express the Taylor family’s sincerity.”
After Zeke heard that, he immediately began to make arrangements.
After Old Madam Taylor arranged everything, she also sighed helplessly and said to herself, these were really troubled times!
On the other side, when Zeke contacted Nine Dragons Property Co., Draco, who had received the news, immediately asked Bruce for instructions.
Bruce’s reply was very simple. There was no reason to turn down free money.
After receiving the reply, Draco eagerly replied to the Taylor family that he would go there personally tomorrow.
After Zeke received Draco’s reply, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Draco wouldn’t be willing to take the money.
Luckily, he could finally throw this hot potato away.
After Old Madam Taylor found out about this news, she was so relieved that she stopped frowning. This should be the only good news today.
Next, she quietly waited for the trouble that would come tomorrow so Brianne and Bruce could take the fall.
“Please don’t let there be any more trouble tomorrow. Otherwise, the Taylor family really won’t be able to hold on.” Old Madam Taylor silently prayed to herself.
