Chapter 430
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
âOkay, Iâll be there soon.
â
Walking out of the bedroom, she found the table laid with breakfast Domenic had prepared, along with a note: Off to work, remember to eat.
Lindsey nibbled a bit of the sandwich and hastily left.
Exiting the taxi, she saw a throng gathered outside the company.
Hastening through the crowd, she found Benny and Kendra at the center.
Frowning, she inquired, âWhatâs happening here?â
Benny turned, catching sight of Lindseyâs composed face.
Not having seen her for a few days, Lindsey had transformed into a more
mature and poised version of herself.
Benny knew Lindsey had become a hot topic lately.
He had anticipated Lindseyâs realization of the harsh realities after her downfall, expecting her to return and apologize.
But he never imagined Lindsey not only triumphing but also abruptly resigning to launch her own company.
Last night, after learning the news from Shelia, Kendra had tried to provoke Benny, âBenny, launching a company isnât childâs play.
Lindsey just graduated; what does she know? Itâs beyond her capabilities.
If her company fails, youâll be left cleaning up the mess.
â
âShe didnât offer the money from her mother for your companyâs working capital.
Instead, she left you with a significant potential problem.
Once her company takes off, itâs like a ticking time bomb.
Who knows if itâll become a burden to the family? If it affects the relationship between Shelia and Jacob, itâll be troublesome.
â
Despite Bennyâs years in the business realm, he couldnât manage the company well.
Kendraâs words seemed rational to him.
He felt compelled to stop Lindsey from establishing her own venture.
âLinds, just shut down the office and head home with me.
â Benny gave Lindsey an icy look and spoke.
Lindsey couldnât believe her ears.
âWhat the hell are you even talking about?â
Benny replied with anger, âLindsey, this has gone on too long.
How could you start a company without consulting me? Do I even matter to you as your father?â
Lindsey scoffed.
âIâve already told you, I donât consider you my father.
â
âHow dare you!â Bennyâs face flushed with rage.
Yet, Kendra smiled and said.
âLinds, legally Benny is your father.
If your company fails, heâll have to fix things.
Donât be stubborn.
Youâve probably spent most of the money your mother left you.
Just give whatâs left to your father and find a regular job.
Our family canât handle any more problems.
â
It took Lindsey a while, but she finally got it.
They were worried her company would lose money and bring them down.
Benny, her father, had never believed in her ability to manage the company successfully.
He had always doubted her.
