Chapter 598
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
The receptionist glanced up and inquired, âDo you have an appointment?â
âNo, I donât.
â
âUnfortunately, you need an appointment to meet the CEO.
â
âIâm here to make an appointment.
When can I see him?â
The receptionist browsed the schedule and replied, âYou can see him in⦠about a week.
â
âWhat? A week?!â Kendra shouted.
Waiting a week was out of the question!
âI need to see him now.
Please let him know,â Kendra insisted firmly to the receptionist.
The receptionist ignored her.
She was used to dealing with demanding visitors.
âIâm sorry, but I canât notify him without an appointment.
â
Kendra, seeing the receptionistâs stubborn stance, felt her anger surge.
She clenched her teeth, ready to cause a scene.
âRupert Walsh, come out here! If you donât show yourself, donât hold it against me for taking extreme measures.
Thereâs nothing I wouldnât do for my daughter!â
At the Vanguard Group, a renowned corporation, security was always on high alert.
Noticing the commotion in the lobby, the security team approached to try and expel Kendra.
But Kendra refused to leave quietly, raising her voice and drawing more attention.
The security guards had no choice but to physically escort her out.
âDonât cause any more trouble, or we wonât be so polite anymore!â one of the guards warned her sternly before walking away.
Standing outside, Kendra gazed at the towering structure.
The revolving door seemed like a barrier, cutting her off from her last hope.
She slumped to the ground, buried her face in her hands, and cried in despair.
She realized men were heartless and ungrateful.
None of them could be trusted.
After shedding many tears, Kendra composed herself.
She had always sought to depend on men for success and riches, but now she realized that the last thing in the world she could rely on was men.
She stood up from the ground and felt the taste of blood in her mouth.
Juanita and Lindsey had wronged her daughter Shelia.
Kendra swore that she would not let them off easily.
Kendra returned to her home, feeling like she was in a daze.
Benny hadnât been around for the last few days.
He was tied up with business, having secured a hefty investment from Juanita, and hadnât even inquired about Shelia.
Kendraâs emotions were a mix of absurdity and sorrow.
It seemed Like all her hard work had been for nothing.
She was unwilling to accept it!
Earlier, she had sought advice from a lawyer.
The lawyer had said that, given the circumstances, Shelia might face a maximum of one year in prison.
One year might seem short.
But the real concern was Sheliaâs future.
