Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 53

"Hello, is this Mr. Logan Wynn?"

The voice on the other end was steady and firm.

It was an unfamiliar voice. Logan paused. "Yes…"

"This is Stephen, the executive assistant of the Lancaster Corporation. I am calling on behalf of the corporation to formally inform you that the partnership between the Lancaster Corporation and the Wynn family is hereby terminated."

"Furthermore, the Lancaster Corporation will not partner with any enterprise that collaborates with the Wynn family in the future. Thank you."

After saying this, Stephen, the assistant, politely hung up.

A dial tone buzzed from the phone.

Logan stood there, stunned, his mind buzzing. He looked as if he'd been struck by lightning, his face deathly pale.

With a clatter, the phone fell from his hand.

He snapped his head up, his pupils constricting as he stared fiercely at Serena. "You… It was you?!"

"No! Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

Logan's voice was distorted, his eyes bloodshot with disbelief. "How could you have that kind of power? How could you just say you wanted the Lancaster Corporation to cancel the deal, and they just did it?"

Not only had the Lancasters canceled this partnership…

They had also declared they wouldn't work with any company that worked with the Wynns. Wasn't that a death sentence for the Wynn family?

How could a worthless country girl like Serena have the power to influence the Lancaster Corporation?!

Serena met his horrified gaze, her red lips curling slightly. Her voice was casual, without a ripple. "Didn't you say I was a jinx?"

Her eyes shifted to the stiff-as-a-board Hailey. The smile on her lips turned malicious. "Then let your lucky charm go and beg the Lancaster family to reinstate the deal. Let's see if her tears work, shall we?"

"You!" Logan seethed with rage.

Seeing Hailey's red-rimmed eyes and her pitiful, wronged expression, he pulled her into his arms and glared at Serena. "Stop trying to sow discord! You think I'd believe you?"

He sneered. "Even if the Lancaster Corporation really wanted to terminate the partnership, the call would go to my father or my older brother. Why would they call my cell phone directly?"

His gaze swept over the phone in Serena's hand, his expression one of someone who had figured it all out. "I get it. That so-called executive assistant was just an actor you hired! You deliberately set this up with someone to put on a show in front of me!"

The more he spoke, the more convinced he became. He laughed coldly. "You country bumpkin, is there anything you can do besides trick people?"

"Believe what you want," Serena said, not bothering to waste another breath on him.

"—I believe her."

A lazy, casual voice suddenly cut through Logan's desperate denial.

Nicholas had a cigarette dangling from his lips. He raised a playful,慵懒 eyebrow and glanced at Logan.

His posture was like that of a god looking down on a struggling ant. His tone was one of natural contempt. "The Lancasters aren't blind. Why would they ever choose to partner with a second-rate family like the Wynns?"
