Let Me Stay The Night

Brenda’s menacing voice echoed loudly in the silent and spacious living room.

Christina calmly stared at the elegant Brenda and replied slowly, “Mrs. Lesley, you have misunderstood me. How can I dare to lecture you, an elder? I am merely considering my own and Victoria’s future.”

Brenda sneered, “Don’t bring Victoria into this.”

The status of the Lesley family attracted flatters from many people, but since Christina married into the Hadley family, she lacked neither status nor wealth and power. The only thing she was worried about was the reputation of her studio.

Brenda believed that the reason Christina hired Victoria as a chief designer was simply because she valued Victoria’s fame. Therefore, when Victoria had conflicts with her family and lost the wealth and status provided by the Lesley family, Christina took advantage of the situation and deceived Victoria into signing a so–called contract.

“The contract that Victoria signed with you is null and void starting today. The liquidated damages will be borne by the Lesley family,” Brenda declared as she raised her head proudly. “I have only one condition. Victoria and Sebastian must completely sever ties. After that, I request that you stop disturbing her new life.”

Brenda appeared resolute and unyielding.

Christina’s gaze instantly turned cold. “Mrs. Lesley, you may not yet be aware of the true consequences if Victoria breaches the contract with the studio.”

Brenda snorted coldly. “First, you tried to lecture me on how to handle things, and now you’re resorting to threatening me? To put it bluntly, Mrs. Hadley, when I was your age, I had already built a thriving beauty salon business. Being sensible and knowing when to advance and retreat is the best way to success.”
