Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1358

"The Jenkins Group has canceled the ongoing collaboration talks with the Reynolds Group. It's clearly a warning to the Reynolds family! Mr. Jenkins has always been decisive and ruthless in business. Anyone who messes with him will face his fury, and even a century-old business legacy could be wiped out completely! How dare you provoke him!"

Still sleepy, Cassie looked utterly confused.

When did she offend Elliot?

She was not even aware of it.

Umair was furious.

Seeing her clueless and unapologetic, he continued to scold her, "Don't act like you have no idea about this. This morning, Mr. Lionel Jenkins, the Vice CEO of the Jenkins Group, personally mentioned the withdrawal of collaboration.

"He had a cold demeanor throughout, obviously very angry. When I asked him why, he told me to ask you."

Cassie was genuinely puzzled and asked, "Dad, I haven't even met Elliot. How could I possibly offend him?"

Cassie's mother, Vera, also entered the room, rubbing Umair's back to calm him down.

She asked, "Cassie, what did you do yesterday? Tell us everything, and we can help you analyze where things went wrong."

"Okay."

She obediently got out of bed, stood on the carpet, and patted her face to wake herself up.

Cassie recalled she only did a few things the day before. Hence, she quickly recounted everything to Umair and Vera.

Except for the blind date with Nathaniel at Hotel Nu'Bella in the afternoon, Cassie did nothing unusual all day.

"Mom, Dad, Nathaniel is a scumbag. Not only has he been to prison, but he also has a secret lover, going so far as to have an illegitimate daughter. He probably agreed to the blind date with me because he wanted me to help him give his illegitimate daughter status through me. I guess he wants to marry me and then put his daughter's name under mine."

She stewed for a moment, then continued, "His illegitimate daughter of his is rude and foul-mouthed. I couldn't stand her, so I scolded her. Afterward, I contacted several newspapers and reporters to expose Nathaniel's scandalous personal life. Maybe I didn't offer enough money because there hasn't been any major news about the Nicholls Group. So, my plan kind of backfired, but I really didn't mean to provoke Elliot."

Umair and Vera exchanged glances.

After a brief contemplation, Umair expressed his confusion, "I've looked into Nathaniel before. Although he had a criminal record, he was bailed out by Mr. Corey from the Lawson family. One of his sisters also engaged to Mr. Howard from the Lawson family. They're practically relatives. I heard that when Romello stepped down, there was some power struggle among the Nicholls family members, and Mr. Jenkins and Mr. Howard teamed up to put him in power. But I've never heard any rumors about him having an illegitimate daughter..."

Cassie also lowered her head, baffled that she managed to offend Elliot out of nowhere.

Instead, it was the collaboration between the Reynolds Group and the Jenkins Group…

Suddenly struck by a thought, Umair pulled out his phone and frantically scrolled through the photos.

Last month, he had seen Elliot and Sheena attending a business gala together.

There was also a little girl who seemed to get along well with Nathaniel, trailing behind him like a little shadow.

After a while, he successfully found a picture taken at the business gala that unintentionally included the little girl's side profile.

"Take a good look. Is this the girl?"

Cassie took the phone and nodded, "Yes, that's the little brat. This must be an important business event, right? Nathaniel actually dared to bring his illegitimate daughter to such an occasion… It's truly embarrassing."

Umair was furious, smacking his head in frustration.

"Cassie, look what you've done! This isn't his illegitimate daughter! This is Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins's daughter, the heiress of the Jenkins and Lawson families, Adora Lawson! Though she's only five years old, she's already the heiress to the wealthiest empire, worth billions of dollars. How dare you accuse her of being poorly behaved?"
