Chapter 126 The Wilson Family is Doomed
"Mrs. Wilson!" Mrs. Wilson no longer wanted to hear any explanations. "We signed the agreement in black and white. During the contract period, there cannot be any negative news, otherwise you will have to pay ten times the breach of contract penalty... As required, you must pay fifty million within ten days, otherwise we will have to see each other in court!"
"Uh, Mrs. Wilson, Mrs. Wilson..." Mrs. Wilson wanted to say something more, but the other party had already hung up, and when she called back, she had already been blocked. Mrs. Wilson slumped.
Fifty million, where could she find fifty million... Although Mr. Wilson is one of the richest men in New York, with personal assets exceeding one billion dollars, most of it is fixed assets, such as houses, shops, shares, cars, and so on... Recently, because Q. Rowe Price and other large groups suddenly stopped cooperating with them, they couldn't move their funds around, and coupled with losing money in business, they had already sold a lot of shops and houses. Now they have to compensate for five.
Maybe we can only sell shares! But if we sell shares, they will become minority shareholders... The decision-making power will be in the hands of Mrs. Wilson and other shareholders! No, it won't work... They can't sell shares...
"You can all go down!" Mrs. Wilson dismissed the maids and anxiously asked Mr. Wilson in a low voice, "What should we do? Isla violated the contract and needs to compensate fifty million, within a ten-day deadline..." Mr. Wilson was about to say something when his phone vibrated, it was an unknown number.
"Hello?"
"Is this Mr. Wilson? I am Miss Anika's attorney agent. Miss Anika' works were plagiarized"...
"According to relevant laws and regulations, you must stop infringing, eliminate the influence, and offer a sincere apology. After that, you must compensate Miss Anika for her losses."
"With Miss Anika' reputation, a sixty-million compensation is already exceptionally lenient."
"If the payment is not received within three days, we will sue Miss Isla and announce the matter on official channels."
"Please... " Mr. Wilson hurriedly pleaded, "Let's talk things out... "
If it is announced officially, the whole nation will know about Isla's plagiarism, which will have a serious negative impact on her reputation and the reputation of the Wilson family...
Mrs. Wilson saw Mr. Wilson finish the call and anxiously asked, "What's the situation? Abella is demanding sixty million in compensation? Why?"
"Because Isla directly copied her composition!" Mr. Wilson gets angry just thinking about it.
"Couldn’t you please stop calling her a deadbeat? If it weren't for you wanting to kick her out of the Wilson family, as Anika, how much benefits could she have brought to us? How outstanding are our two daughters? How much prestige could they have earned? How many connections could they have brought in when they get married?"
The Wilson family doesn't need that Abella. The problem is that the perspective is too narrow! It's too late to regret now...
"Who knew that this deadbeat...that girl is Anika? She never mentioned it before," Mrs. Wilson said indignantly.
"It shows that she is a very cunning person! Grandma adored her the most, but she still kept it a secret from Grandma!" Mrs. Wilson was certain that if Grandma knew, she would have told them. Mr. Wilson sat down on the couch, feeling defeated. Now, with the fifty million breach of contract fee and the sixty-million infringement compensation...it adds up to over a hundred million! He doesn't have that much cash on hand!
"What if we talk to that girl again...
"Quantity first? That girl's soft-heartedness..." Mrs. Wilson hadn't finished speaking when Mr. Wilson couldn't help but rebuke, "You also know she's soft-hearted? If you had been more magnanimous back then, even if we reluctantly sent her away, we could have ended things amicably. Later, when we bumped into her on the road, we could have smiled and greeted each other, and our relationship wouldn't have ended up so strained like it is now!"
Mr. Wilson realized that ever since Abella left the Wilson family, nothing has gone smoothly for the Wilson family...
Just when Isla finally got second place and hadn't been happy for a few days, now we are in such a dire situation!
Mr. Wilson can't explain his current feelings, whether it's regret, heartache, anger, or annoyance...
He remembered Q. Rowe Price and suddenly understood.
"No wonder she would dine with Romer and them..."
It's highly possible that it's her, Anika' identity, that allowed her to befriend some influential people.
Mr. Wilson regretted not doing it earlier. "Call Isla down. We can only sincerely apologize to that child now and strive to earn her forgiveness..."
"Why?" Mrs. Wilson exclaimed, unwillingly saying, "Isla already apologized to her on stage..."
Apologize privately as well?
Wouldn't that just make themselves stepping stones for Abella to step on?
"If saying sorry could save us sixty million, you can secretly cover your mouth and laugh!" Mr. Wilson vaguely felt that things weren't so simple. "I'm worried that after being hurt by us so many times, that child won't easily forgive us..."
She had already blocked their phone numbers...
"Didn't she used to admire Isla's necklace? We can at least give her that..." Mrs. Wilson hadn't finished speaking when Mr. Wilson started laughing.
"Why are you laughing?"
"She's a piano master, doesn't have money to buy a necklace?"
"Then why did she steal Isla's? And have relations with so many men? Isn't it for money?"
Mr. Wilson pondered for a moment and said, "What Isla said might not be true. Maybe she has relations with so many men because of her identity as a piano master, making friends with like-minded people..."
After all, these high-status individuals like to gather together...
Upon hearing him say this, Mrs. Wilson suddenly felt it made sense...
But how could Isla possibly lie?
Mr. Wilson must have thought too much!
Just then, Mr. Wilson's phone vibrated again, it was a call from Davis at the company.
"Mr. Wilson, it's not good!! The Medici family has sent out a strong message, forbidding any company from cooperating with us, whoever dares to help us will have a conflict with the Medici family!"
"Now several companies have come to terminate the contract..."
"If this continues, our company will be left with nothing!"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Wilson was extremely shocked and puzzled.
"We haven't offended the Medici family, have we? Did the Medici family say why?"
"No..."
"Then quickly find out!!" Mr. Wilson was in a state of panic. They didn't have any conflicts with the Medici family at the awards ceremony today... they didn't even exchange greetings! How did they offend them?
"Mr. Wilson, please don't worry, I will inquire right away."
After hanging up the phone, Mr. Wilson had a vague sense that he was finished...
He couldn't understand why the Medici family would make such a ruthless statement.
Could it be because of Abella?
Is it possible that the Medici family likes Anika and intervened because she was being bullied?
If that's the case, then they have offended two influential and prominent individuals at once...
