She had already made the exception for Finn Chen. Otherwise, she wouldn't tell him the stuff about Irene Chen.
"Okay, thank you for your information," Finn nodded. He would take care of the bitch. In the final analysis, the whole City C was under his control now.
…
Soon, Finn and Maura returned to City C.
When they entered the house, Leah Jiang was watching TV.
"You! How dare you come back?" Leah got angry the moment she saw Finn.
She glanced at Finn in disgust. Previously, Finn left slamming the door in front of Fay Sun and her son, making Leah lose face.
Finn frowned impatiently and ignored her. He kept walking towards his room. If it's not for Maura, he won't return to Shawn's Family.
"Stop!" Leah was furious about Finn's attitude. She took a step forward and stopped him, "I am talking to you. Can't you hear me?"
"Get out of the way!" Finn remarked coldly. He could put up with Leah for Maura, but he had his line.
Finn's cold look made Leah a bit scared. She felt the man in front of her got vastly different. What had he experienced recently?
…
At this time, Maura came in.
Seeing them facing off, Maura raised her eyebrows and cried, "Mom, what are you doing?"
"Maura, thank God. You're here. You're here," Leah shouted as if she found her boss. She walked to Maura and planned to tell her on Finn. Then she saw Maura's arm wrapped in white gauze.
"Kid, what happened to your arm?" Leah screamed worriedly. It's just a few days. Maura was so haggard and even with injuries on her arm and face.
"No worries," Maura shook her head, "It's just by a knife, accidentally."
"What? Who did that to you?! Tell me. I must get back at that bastard," Leah replied in a fury. Maura was her sweetheart. She would never let others hurt her.
Maura smiled bitterly, "Thanks, mom. But Finn has solved the whole thing. He messed up the bitch who hurt me."
Maura couldn't say that a wolf bit her. She had to lie.
After analyzing the geomancy, the man concluded that Finn was a stormy petrel. Whoever lived with Finn would not live long.
Initially, Leah was dubious about his remarks. But after seeing Maura's arm, all doubts disappeared. It's Finn who caused these incidents!
She must expel this man from her family.
Otherwise, a knife or a car accident would be on her way.
"Mom, stop that. It's not what you said at all. Remember that? Finn helped me be the head of the Spring Hill Project," Maura answered her back angrily.
"No. The reason why you take charge of the project is our Shawn's Family, and you're impressive. That had nothing to do with this loser," Leah replied coldly.
Initially, she was happy that her daughter had become the head. Still, then she realized Scott Xia controlled the project financially. Maura couldn't get any benefits at all. It's like she's only a person working for Scott.
"Mom! The general manager of DS Group is Finn's classmate in college. He did help me to be the leader," Maura explained patiently.
However, Leah sneered coldly, "Kid, the general manager is not a fool. Businessmen prioritize their profits. Indeed, he is Finn's classmate. So what? He could bring nothing to the manager. Why would he offer you a project worth nearly seven billion?"
