Mr. Emmert suddenly took a deep breath, went silent for a moment, and then sighed, "Well, if that girl's grandpa and dad were still alive, they could have done whatever they wanted in B City! Does Rebecca know about this?"
"She doesn’t. Please keep this a secret, Emmert. Rebecca and that girl have never been on good terms. Stephanie is Ashley's apprentice, and Rebecca has always held a grudge against Ashley. Because of Ashley, Stephanie has become Rebecca's enemy."
Hearing this, the wrinkles on Emmert's face deepened.
"They are blood relatives!"
"So what? Rebecca has been spoiled rotten by the Snider family. Stephanie is a lot more sensible."
"Are you using Stephanie for her connections, young man?"
Sebastian scoffed, "Do you think my family cares about the Snider family? I only helped Rebecca secretly get Zachary out of the country for treatment because he's Stephanie's biological father.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have anything to do with the Snider family."
"So you're saying Zachary got this favor because of his daughter?"
"No matter how you mock me, Emmert, if it weren't for Stephanie, I wouldn't be where I am today, and I wouldn't have anything to do with the Snider family! Even if Zachary wakes up and Jarvis Snider comes back from the dead and both father and son are business geniuses, they will never surpass the scale of my corporation."
"Boy, you're quite cocky."
Sebastian said indifferently, "That's only part of it. I'm ready at any moment to fight Zachary for Stephanie."
"She's his biological daughter! Fight over what? If Zachary truly wakes up, you should return his daughter to him, and then we'll see if he's willing to marry her to you."
"No way." Stephanie was his; he wouldn't give her to anyone.
Emmert angrily said, "While her biological father's away, you, an older man, are taking care of her. What's that about? How could you have the nerve to say that?"
"She's my relative! I can treat her however I want!"
Sebastian laughed coldly, "Stephanie isn't so easy to bully!"
Soon after, Sebastian told Stephanie that she had done well. If Emmert was rude to her, she could retaliate!
Don't swallow your anger; let it out.
So, Emmert, who had been in the entertainment circle for many years, suddenly faced a challenger.
Stephanie was a little nervous for her audition and didn't perform well.
Emmert scolded her, "Can you even act? How can you dare to show off with such little skill?"
