Presley gave her an excuse, a true one at that.
The Harper Group just couldn’t cough up that much cash right now. He was willing but unable, so
Wendy couldn’t really force him to provide the money. Besides, what was the point of forcing him when
he was flat broke?
Meanwhile, over at Cole’s end, Robin gave him a straight answer. At the same time, they noticed that
the scattered shares in the stock market were being snapped up again. Who was behind it, they didn’t
know yet.
Grace, having been a high–society wife for decades, was clueless about business matters. But she
knew that the Alonso Corporation was in hot water. If they couldn’t find the money to solve their
problems, they would be in deep trouble. But she was helpless.
The night deepened, and Wendy felt a chill in her heart.
“Mom, call home and see if Dad’s back yet?”
“Alright.”
Grace was in a state of turmoil. When she heard Wendy’s words, she just followed her instructions
without thinking. The maid on the phone told them that Cole hadn’t returned home. After hanging up,
Wendy instructed the driver to head straight to the office.
Without a doubt, with the company in such a mess, Cole was probably trying to figure out a way at the
office. The employees were all working overtime, but they were just huddling together, discussing the
latest gossip. When they saw Wendy, they didn’t even bat an eye, too busy with their own work.
Upon entering the office, she saw a lone figure sitting in the dark behind Cole’s desk. Wendy flicked on
the lights and stared straight at Cole. “Dad,
find another solution?”

Cole glanced at her without emotion. “What do you think?”
He simply didn’t have the energy to be angry with Wendy anymore. She seemed to be always
unaffected, only caring about what she thought was important. From the start, she never thought about
fighting for the company, but only about battling with Chloe for Damon’s sake. Step by step, she was
leading the company into a dead end.
Seeing Cole looking so down and out, Wendy felt anger boiling inside her. “So, what are you going to
do?”
Cole chuckled bitterly. “What else can I do? We’ll just have to deal with the losses as they come and
take whatever comes next…”
Infinity Media was being investigated, and now they were looking for the one responsible. As the
Alonso Corporation’s stock kept dropping, they could only brace for bankruptcy. Today, even the
international bank called to urge the Alonso Corporation to repay their loans.
How many more hits could the Alonso Corporation take?
“You’re planning to give up on the company?” Wendy understood what Cole meant and her face turned
angry,
Cole didn’t answer, his silence a tacit agreement.
“No way!” Suddenly, Wendy shouted, “Our great Alonso Corporation, how could it come to this? You
give up the company, and you want me to surrender to Chloe? No way! You shouldn’t even think about
it!”
Her loud voice echoed in the office, sending chills down the spine. Cole frowned. “I think you’ve really
lost it! Get out of here now!”
“No! You can’t give up on Alonso Corporation! It’s mine! How could you give up on it? If you let the
company go down under your watch, you wouldn’t be able to face our ancestors even in death…”
Suddenly, a sharp smack echoed in the office. Wendy was knocked to the floor by Cole’s slap. Her
whole body was in pain, and she let out a muffled groan.
“Wendy!” Grace immediately went pale and rushed to help her, but Cole shoved her aside.
“Stay back!” Cole glared at Wendy on the floor. “You bitch, I regret ever letting you inherit the Alonso
Corporation. Do you dare to curse me to death? You devil! The predicament the Alonso family is in now
is all your doing! The only thing I owe to the Alonso family’s ancestors is giving birth to you and
choosing you as the heir. You don’t deserve to be the heir. What can a fool like you do to lead the
company?”
Wendy looked up at him, her eyes full of anger. “What are you planning to do? Do you want to take
away my inheritance? I’m telling you, that’s not gonna happen!”
“Watch me!”
“Who are you planning to make the heir? Phoebe? That fool, you trust her?”
Cole laughed coldly. “Anyone is a hundred times better than you!”
“You…”
Father and daughter were now like enemies, each refusing to give in. Grace was worried, especially
about Cole really making Phoebe the heir. She had worked so hard to become Ms. Grace, and her
daughter had finally become the head of the family. She thought that if she could control the Alonso
Corporation, the entire Alonso family would be theirs.
Who could’ve imagined that it would come to this?
But no matter what, even if the Alonso Corporation was facing difficulties now, it would only be a minor
setback in the end. There wouldn’t be
much difference in the long run!
Seeing that Wendy had grown up and was about to take over the company, how could she allow the
loss of everything at the last moment?
“Cole, Wendy was driven into a corner, you know. You know she’s always been a proud one, and with
all the trouble at the company and her being so young, why are you picking on her?”
Cole’s chest was heaving dramatically, his gaze locked on Wendy. He let out a cold laugh, but his
expression was astonishingly calm “She’s already twenty–seven, but she still acts like a kid, cursing at
me when she gets upset? I’m still alive and kicking, and she’s already claiming the Alonso family is
hers? When did I hand over the Alonso family to her?”
‘Cole…”
“Shut up! If she thinks she’s getting her hands on the Alonso Corporation, she’s got another thing
coming!”
Wendy’s face twitched violently, her gaze on Cole was downright venomous.
The air suddenly became charged with tension. In the silence that fell between them, Wendy’s phone
suddenly rang.
Wendy’s eyes flickered, glancing at the phone that had just been knocked to the floor. She gritted her
teeth and started crawling towards it.
