The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 710 What Have You Done To Her

After observing the situation, Seth had a pretty good idea of what was happening.

Henry piped up, “Mrs. Guerra, I see some truth in your words, but after all, you and Mr. Guerra are divorced now. He’s not here at the moment, and all we have is your side of the story. What if he returns to find no payment made, potentially damaging the company’s reputation? How would we handle that?”

Henry had been counting on the kickbacks to cover the losses. Now, he was unable to get in touch with Dillon, and the Lanister family had redirected their funds. If he couldn’t secure the partnership with Riveron Corporation, his misdeeds were bound to be exposed.

Lysander glanced at him, her gaze indifferent and emotionless.

“I heard from Olivia,” she began, “that you’ve been in charge of the collaboration with Riveron Corporation. Now, it’s clear that there are issues with the Lanister family, yet you’re so eager to rush the finance department to transfer funds to them. Aren’t you afraid that the company’s money will just go to waste? Remember, part of that money is mine.”

She was well aware that the funds in Guerra Group’s public account had nothing to do with her. Even Josiah might not have free access to it. However, to thwart their plans, she had no choice but to feign ignorance.

Henry’s expression changed instantly as he flew into a rage. “Have you ever worked at Guerra Group? If not, on what grounds do you keep saying there’s something wrong with me?”

With a nonchalant demeanor, Lysander said, “I didn’t exactly say that. I was just making a reasonable inquiry.”

The tension in the conference room had escalated to a point where it was no longer possible to continue arguing. The atmosphere was as tense as a drawn bow ready to snap at any moment. It was Seth who first decided to soften his stance. He said, “Mrs. Guerra, there’s no need for you to get upset. Isn’t it just a disagreement over the fund transfer? Why don’t we both take a step back and wait until Mr. Guerra returns to discuss it further?”

He was clearly trying to delay things, unsure of when Josiah would return. As for Lysander, it was impossible for her to always stay at the company.

At worst, he’d handle the matter when she wasn’t around.
