Chapter 545
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
In Paulaâs eyes, with Rupert from the Walsh family backing her, Shelia should be confident no one in Morcastle would dare cross her.
Furthermore, Paula had s@x with Rupert that day.
She could tell that Rupert was quite pleased with her.
She knew she had to be patient in her plans.
If her daughter could win Rupertâs favor, she believed Bennyâs company would have a smoother path to success.
At that point, Benny would treat her kindly, leading to a significant shift in her standing within the family.
Kendra gave Sheliaâs hand a reassuring pat and remarked, âThis is a golden opportunity.
Lindseyâs company is fresh on the scene, and partnering with such a big brand will surely spark a lot of online buzz and chatter.
No need to put Lindsey down.
The higher she climbs, the harder sheâll fall.
If she doesnât achieve results that match her resources, itâll surely sting, and her reputation will take a hit.
â
Hearing this, Shelia was taken aback.
After pondering for a moment, she grasped Kendraâs idea.
With a smile, Shelia gave Kendra a thumbs -up and exclaimed, âMom, this strategy is brilliant.
Youâre a genius.
â
When they were hatching their plan, Benny opened the door and entered the room.
Spotting this, Kendra swiftly rose from the sofa, brimming with enthusiasm.
She hurried over, fetched Bennyâs slippers, and assisted him in changing his clothes.
Kendra held the title of Mrs.
Stewart, yet she found herself doing the same thing a servant did.
This left Shelia quite displeased.
Benny appeared weary.
Kendra brewed him some coffee and began massaging his shoulders, sitting next to him.
Bennyâs irritated look softened considerably as he tenderly clasped Kendraâs hand.
âKendra, I appreciate your dedication during these times.
Despite being pregnant, youâve been actively involved in company matters.
Without the money you borrowed, the company could have facedâ¦â
Kendra offered a gentle smile.
âWeâre family.
I must support you and help the company overcome these challenges.
Unlike Lindsey whoâs found success and seems to have conveniently overlooked those who raised her.
â
Benny sighed.
âIf only Lindsey could be a bit like you.
She wouldnât have ended up estranged from us.
â
âBenny, Iâve heard Lindsey is doing well these days.
Her company is about to partner with a global Luxury brand.
Sheâs likely to make a substantial amount of money.
She could easily assist you financially, but she would rather see your company face bankruptcy than offer help.
â
Kendra said in a constricted voice, âLindsey is your flesh and blood.
How much did you invest in raising her? Sheâs living a comfortable life now, yet she doesnât seem inclined to show any gratitude.
It just isnât worthwhile.
â
Bennyâs knuckles turned white as he clenched them.
Suddenly, a realization hit him, prompting him to rise from the sofa.
âYouâre right.
I invested a considerable amount in raising her.
Now that sheâs well-off, itâs only fair that she repays me.
Iâll visit her tomorrow.
How can a daughter turn a blind eye to her parentsâ well-being?â
Kendra nodded softly while resting in Bennyâs embrace.
She gently patted his chest.
âBenny, try not to get too worked up.
Just have a heart-to-heart with Lindsey.
After all⦠Blood is thicker than water.
Her heart isnât made of stone.
â
Observing Kendraâs sequence of actions, Shelia couldnât help but think that experience brings wisdom.
In this way, it would not only unsettle Lindsey but also divert her focus from the collaboration with Cherish.
Consequently, she might be more prone to making errors and messing up the partnership.
