She was Farad Tang's sister, named Leila Tang, the daughter of Jayiay Tang, the eldest son of Fernan Tang.
As she entered the room, she immediately noticed Camellia Tang and Ellison Jiang and couldn't help but give them a quick glance.
Then, she approached Fernan Tang, took out her phone, and showed him a news article.
Fernan Tang was left dumbfounded when he saw the news about Chairman Luby Ye personally inviting Camellia Tang to enter the Qian Jun Building.
Chairman Luby Ye was a highly influential figure in Jiang Zhong, and even the four major families had to consider his opinions.
Quickly picking up the contract document on the table and confirming that it was indeed a billion-dollar contract, he laughed heartily, "Haha, Camellia, well done! You truly live up to our Tang family's reputation. Securing a one-billion-dollar contract with Qian Jun is a remarkable achievement. Our Tang family can finally hold our heads high in Jiang Zhong."
"But Grandpa, what about Ellison Jiang?" Camellia Tang asked anxiously.
"What? Has the young master from the Xiao family arrived?" A middle-aged woman entered the room.
This was Camellia Tang's mother, Fawn He.
As soon as she entered, she noticed Trivon Xiao and walked over with a flattering smile, "Young Master Trivon Xiao, I've heard so much about you. How is my daughter, Camellia? As long as you agree, she can be your wife today."
"Mom!" Camellia Tang stamped her foot in frustration, looking at Fernan Tang and pleading, "Grandpa, you promised. Now that we have the contract, you can't go back on your word."
"Hmph."
Trivon Xiao couldn't help but snort and said, "Does getting the contract mean you can rest easy? With just one phone call from me, I can make Qian Jun cancel the contract."
"You..." Camellia Tang pointed her finger at the arrogant Trivon Xiao and then turned to Fernan Tang, shouting, "Grandpa!"
Fernan Tang put down the contract.
He didn't understand why Chairman Luby Ye would personally receive Camellia Tang. However, Qian Jun was indeed an intimate partner of the Xiao family. Offending Trivon Xiao could result in losing the contract. Moreover, this contract was secured by Camellia Tang, not Ellison Jiang.
He smoked his dry cigarette and said, "Camellia, you brought back this contract, and it has nothing to do with Ellison Jiang. Grandpa is keeping my word. Divorce him, then be with Trivon Xiao, marry into the prestigious Xiao family."
"That's right." Trivon Xiao looked self-assured. He believed that once Fernan Tang agreed, he could pursue Camellia Tang without interference. Later, he would deal with Ellison Jiang.
He didn’t believe that Fernan Tang would dare to offend him for the sake of a son-in-law they had chosen.
Offending him meant trouble for the Tang family in Jiang Zhong.
With a smug expression, Trivon Xiao continued, "Fernan Tang, your choice is wise. My father is about to become the head of the Xiao family, and as long as you curry favor with me, we'll have plenty of orders in the future."
"Dear..." Camellia Tang looked at Ellison Jiang with a distressed expression.
Ellison Jiang looked at her and asked, "Camellia, what do you think?"
Camellia Tang firmly stated, "I've already registered our marriage, and I am your wife. Unless I die, we cannot get a divorce."
Ellison Jiang nodded and said, "Then go ahead and call Luby Ye. Explain the situation to him and see if Trivon Xiao can convince Qian Jun to cancel the contract with the Tang family with just one phone call. If Trivon Xiao really has that kind of influence, I think you might be happier with him than with a poor guy like me.”
The people from the Tang family admired Ellison Jiang's understanding and pragmatism.
Fernan Tang smiled and said, "Ellison Jiang, you're quite sensible. Rest assured, I'll keep my word. After the divorce, I'll compensate you with five hundred thousand."
Camellia Tang didn't understand Ellison Jiang's true intentions. She thought Ellison Jiang was giving up on her due to the pressure.
She held onto Ellison Jiang's hand tightly and said, "Honey, don't worry. I will definitely keep you in the Tang family. If they try to kick you out, I'd rather die."
"Let's make the call first."
"Alright."
Camellia Tang took out her phone and was about to dial the number on Luby Ye's business card.
However, Fawn He abruptly took the phone from her hand, scolding, "What are you trying to do? This useless guy has agreed to a divorce, yet you're still so stubborn. What's good about following this loser? How can he compare to Young Master Xiao?"
Trivon Xiao casually waved his hand, seemingly unconcerned, and said, "Auntie, let her make the call. Let her give up on this futile hope. Camellia, when you make the call, ask Chairman Ye whether he wants to cooperate with the Xiao family or the Tang family."
Hearing this, Fawn He handed the phone back to Camellia Tang.
Trivon Xiao, on the other hand, looked completely confident.
He believed that the Tang family was just a second-tier family in Jiang Zhong, and Chairman Luby Ye would never choose to cooperate with them over the Xiao family.
Camellia Tang dialed Chairman Luby Ye's number.
"Mr. Ye, it's me, Camellia Tang. Yes, the same one who signed the contract with you recently. Trivon Xiao from the Xiao family says he'll cancel the contract I signed with you."
In Mr. Ye's office, he received Camellia Tang’s call, and his anger flared.
"Trivon Xiao? Who is Trivon Xiao? My signed contracts can't be canceled by anyone!" he exclaimed angrily.
"It's Trachinoid Group from the Xiao family. Trivon Xiao asked whether Qian Jun wants to cooperate with the Xiao family or the Tang family," Camellia Tang replied, her voice lacking confidence, as the Tang family was only a second-tier family compared to the prestigious Xiao family.
"Camellia, don't worry. Let me check, and I'll call you back right away," Luby Ye reassured her.
"Okay," Camellia Tang said before ending the call.
Trivon Xiao wore a smug expression as he asked, "How did it go?"
Camellia Tang replied, "Chairman Luby Ye said he would call me back later."
After hanging up the phone, Luby Ye quickly investigated the matter.
Usually, he didn't get involved in which companies Qian Jun collaborated with; it was the responsibility of his vice president. However, when he found out that Qian Jun Group and the Xiao family had a close partnership, and they had just signed an agreement giving Trachinoid Group priority for Qian Jun's orders, he was furious.
"Vice President Wang, you're fired! Pack your things and get out!"
Luby Ye swiftly issued the order. He also instructed the business department to cancel the collaboration with Trachinoid Group immediately. From now on, Qian Jun would never provide orders to Trachinoid Group again.
After taking these actions, he called Camellia Tang back and said, "Camellia, I've sorted things out. That Trachinoid Group company, Qian Jun will no longer cooperate with them. From now on, Tang family's Yong Le Company will be our top priority. Are you satisfied with this decision?"
Camellia Tang had put her phone on speaker mode, and everyone in the room heard Luby Ye's words.
This revelation caused quite a stir among the Tang family members.
Meanwhile, Trivon Xiao chuckled, "Camellia Tang, who were you calling just now? Who has such a big influence? Canceling the collaboration with Trachinoid Group and choosing to work with Tang family's Yong Le Company? Unless you found someone to impersonate Chairman Luby Ye, no one in their right mind would make such a choice, right?"
His voice was loud, and because Camellia Tang had put the phone on speaker, Luby Ye heard everything clearly.
Luby Ye's anger flared up, and he shouted, "Is it Trivon Xiao? Let me tell you, I am very responsible for what I say. From now on, your Xiao family is finished!"
Then, he lowered his voice and said, "Camellia, you can rest assured about the order. No one can cancel it. If the Xiao family wants to cause trouble for the Tang family, just wait. I'll deal with it right away. I'll make the Xiao family go bankrupt within half an hour!"
After that, Luby Ye hung up the phone and gave orders, "Use all means to suppress the Xiao family. Make the Xiao family liquidate and go bankrupt within half an hour!"
Luby Ye, the helmsman of Qian Jun, had significant influence, even within the Ye family in the capital city.
If he wanted the Xiao family to go bankrupt, it was as good as done.
Back at the Tang family villa, Ellison Jiang wore a faint smile upon hearing these words. He looked at Camellia Tang, who appeared somewhat bewildered, and said, "Camellia, it seems that Chairman Luby Ye has great confidence in you. Are you his goddaughter?"
On the other hand, Trivon Xiao wore a disdainful expression. Making the Xiao family go bankrupt within thirty minutes?
What a joke!
However, at this moment, he received a call from his father. The voice on the other end was filled with anger, "You damn brat, who have you offended? Qian Jun just canceled its collaboration with Trachinoid Group!"
Upon hearing this, Trivon Xiao was dumbfounded.
