Chapter 98 

Catherine realized that she would be making a fool of herself when Stanley pointed that out, but when she thought of the benefits they would get from the project, she frowned again and said to Stanley, “Then do you have any better solutions?” 

“I…I do!” 

Stanley gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t worry, I promise I’ll find a way to deal with Charmaine. If I can get to the eldest daughter of the Longhorns, wouldn’t it be much easier to ask for the project quota or something like that?” 

“Can we rely on what you just said? Time is already running out!” William asked, knowing that Stanley was worried about his position being usurped by Diane. 

“Of course, Uncle William! Don’t underestimate my ability! Give me a week and I’ll get it done for sure!” Stanley patted his chest and assured them. 

William had nothing else to say to Stanley after the latter gave an assurance, but he turned to his mother and said, “Mom, you do realize that you went a bit overboard five years ago. You can’t expect Diane not to be mad at us when we kicked her out when she was pregnant, and-” 

“What are you trying to say, William?” Catherine interrupted coldly before he could finish speaking. “Do you want me to lower myself, apologize to her, and beg her to move back?” 

When William saw that the old lady was angry, he immediately said, “No, no, no! That wasn’t what I meant at all. She shouldn’t ask you to apologize to her.” He paused for a moment and then continued, “What I mean is, there’s no need for us to make our relationship with her any more awkward than it is now, right? What if Stanley fails? We can’t abandon an option and leave ourselves with no room to maneuver!”

half million dollars within a month just to prove to us that Diane was right to be with him!” 

“A dowry of seven a half million dollars? Can he even produce that money?” After the old lady heard this, she could not help but snigger “You think you can bluff me? Seven and a half million, along with a grand wedding, is a hefty sum of money!” 

“Right? That was what I thought too. He doesn’t even look remotely capable of producing that money, so we’re quessing that he’s planning to sell the villa! He should be able to do whatever he wants with it because Mister Henry gave it to him!” Felicia immediately said. 

“Don’t let him sell that house!” After hearing that, the old lady’s face soured. “Whatever you do, you must never make him sell the house. Understand?”
