chapter 9 Treason

In this moment, Lorcia Xiao suddenly had an incredible thought.
Could the Young Master Ye mentioned by Tolina Wang be her own husband, Bradley Ye?
But then again, she thought it was too fantastical.
How could that be!
Bradley Ye was just an orphan who grew up in an orphanage!
But who else in the world would be so good to her besides Bradley Ye?
Thirty million was already a luxury, but the other party directly offered sixty million...
She couldn't help but ask Tolina Wang, "Vice President Wang, may I ask, is your chairman named Bradley Ye?"
Tolina Wang's heart skipped a beat. The young master had instructed not to reveal his identity and only mention his surname Ye. If the young lady guessed it, wouldn't she be blamed?
So she hurriedly said, "Mrs. Xiao, please don't inquire further. Our chairman is a scion of the Yanjing elite, and his identity is highly confidential. I'm not authorized to disclose it."
Lorcia Xiao nodded slightly. The mention of "scion of the Yanjing elite" by Tolina Wang brought her back to her senses.
Bradley Ye was an orphan and couldn't possibly be a scion of any elite Yanjing family. It seemed she was indeed thinking too much.
...
When Lorcia Xiao left Tolina Wang's office, she was still in a daze.
In her hand was the sixty million cooperation agreement between the Xiao family and the Emgrand Group.
It all felt like a dream.
Outside the Emgrand Group, Lorcia Xiao saw Bradley Ye's figure and excitedly ran up to him, saying, "Bradley, I actually did it."
Bradley Ye chuckled inwardly, thinking, as the boss of the Emgrand Group, how could you not succeed?
But he feigned surprise and said, "You managed such a tough project, wife, you're amazing!"
Lorcia Xiao said, "Oh, it's not that I'm amazing. It's like the Emgrand Group just gave it to us."
"Why?" Bradley Ye asked deliberately, "Why do you say that?"
Lorcia Xiao, afraid that Bradley Ye would get jealous if she mentioned the chairman of the Emgrand Group, quickly said, "Oh, it's a long story, let's go to the company now and share this great news with everyone."
Bradley Ye laughed and said, "Great! Now Daniel Xiao has to keep his bet and kneel before me!"
Lorcia Xiao nodded, saying, "He's always so arrogant, it's time he learned a lesson!"
In fact, Lorcia Xiao also had her pride. Daniel Xiao and others looked down upon her and her husband. Now that she had secured the cooperation, it indeed was time for them to be more restrained.
Ten minutes later, the couple arrived at Xiao Group.
In the conference room, every member of the Xiao family had a strange expression.
Everyone knew Lorcia Xiao had gone to the Emgrand Group early in the morning, but no one believed she could pull it off, and they were all waiting to laugh at her.
Unexpectedly, she returned so quickly.
When Lorcia Xiao and Bradley Ye entered the conference room, everyone had a mocking look.
Daniel Xiao said unkindly, "Oh Lorcia, you're back in just half an hour? Couldn't you even get into the Emgrand Group? Hahaha!"
His sister, Brandice Xiao, also sneered, "Oh Lorcia, failing in less than an hour, you're breaking records, right?"
Old Lady Xiao's face also darkened. The Emgrand Group project was indeed very challenging. Even if Lorcia Xiao couldn't secure it, she should have at least been more serious. Giving up so quickly truly angered her.
So, Old Lady Xiao stared at her coldly and said, "Lorcia Xiao, you've disappointed me."
Hearing this, Bradley Ye frowned immediately.
These people were too disgusting, mocking without even asking about the result.
Especially Daniel Xiao, what was he boasting about? He would soon be kneeling before him!
Lorcia Xiao was initially excited, but the words of the others were like pouring cold water on her. Angry, she said, "I'm sorry to disappoint you all, but I have secured the project cooperation with Tolina Wang of the Emgrand Group!"
"What? You did it?"
"Impossible! How could that be! You couldn't even have seen Tolina Wang!"
Everyone was stunned.
"Lorcia Xiao, do you think we would believe that?"
Daniel Xiao regained his composure and shouted, "The Emgrand Group's Tolina Wang is a renowned business elite in the city. How could she possibly meet you? Do you even know your own status?"
Faced with their doubts and accusations, Lorcia Xiao pulled out the contract and handed it to Old Lady Xiao, "This is the project contract with the Emgrand Group, please have a look."
This contract, like a bomb, exploded the atmosphere in the room!
Daniel Xiao still didn't believe it, shouting, "This must be a fake contract! I don't believe she could secure the Emgrand Group!"
"Exactly!" Brandice Xiao added fuel to the fire, "How could she secure a contract with the Emgrand Group? That's a thirty million project! If she could do it, I would have done it long ago!"
Lorcia Xiao sneered, "Cousin, you're wrong. This contract is not for thirty million, but sixty million!"
"Get out!" Brandice Xiao scoffed, "A sixty million contract? You really have the nerve to say it! Do you think we're fools? If you can sign a sixty million contract, I can sign a billion!"
Daniel Xiao also said coldly, "Lorcia, are you treating Grandma and all of us like fools?"
He then turned to Old Lady Xiao, "Grandma! Lorcia is being utterly disrespectful! You can't let her off!"
Old Lady Xiao was also infuriated. She thought even thirty million was a long shot, but Lorcia Xiao came back in half an hour claiming a sixty million deal...
Wasn't this making a fool of her in front of everyone?
How could she maintain her authority in the family if she didn't deal with such an unfilial descendant?
Old Lady Xiao, her heart racing, slammed the table and shouted, "Lorcia Xiao! Go to the HR department and process your resignation immediately!"
Lorcia Xiao was shocked. Had these people gone mad? Just look at the contract, would it kill them?
Just then, someone suddenly shouted, "Damn! The Emgrand Group's official WeChat account just posted an update! The sixty million contract is real!"
