Chapter 146 I Want You to Woo Abella
"Wait, Mr. Wilson... Mr. Romer just said he would consider buying it for 60 million, otherwise, he'll go to sleep..."
"What did you say? 60 million???" Mr. Wilson almost exploded.
"Yes, if it's 60 million, he'll pay the full amount, otherwise, he'll turn off the lights and go to bed..."
Mr. Wilson was so angry that he was at a loss for words. Just as he was about to say he wouldn't sell anymore, Mrs. Wilson suddenly knelt down beside him and quietly pleaded, "60 million is still 60 million... We should leave a way out even when the hills are preserved..."
As the clock approached 11:55, Mr. Wilson was in so much pain that he could barely breathe. He clenched his teeth and said, "Sell!"
"That's great!" The agent breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly made arrangements...
At 11:58, Mr. Wilson's phone made a sound, and he received 60 million in his account.
"Hurry, quickly transfer it to that wretched girl..." Mrs. Wilson urgently said, "There's no time left!!"
Mr. Wilson swallowed his tears and transferred the money. It was exactly midnight.
Mrs. Wilson and Isla quickly checked online, but there was no news of Abella exposing the plagiarism!
They finally breathed a sigh of relief...
But Mr. Wilson was overwhelmed with grief. The total price of the houses and shops was 180 million, but in the end, they only sold for 60 million!
What a loss!
What should they do next...?
He covered his forehead, heartbroken.
Mrs. Wilson knew that they still owed Mrs. Wilson 50 million and they would have to sell more properties and shops to repay it...
At this moment, she came to Mr. Wilson's side and comforted him, "Everything is for our daughter. Our daughter has suffered for 18 years, so let's consider it compensation for her?"
"Sorry, Mom and Dad, it's my fault for burdening you..." Isla apologized tearfully.
Seeing her pitiful and tear-streaked face, Mr. Wilson couldn't bring himself to blame her again. He just said, "In the future, if it's not yours, absolutely don't take it, understood?"
"Dad, I will remember this lesson. I won't take anything that's not mine anymore," Isla bit her lip and deeply resented Abella.
Just then, her phone rang.
At first, she thought it was Remy calling. Remy hadn't called her in three days...
But as soon as she answered, her expression changed. "What? You're saying you're QY's customer service?”
"Why are you still awake at this hour? Are you working 24 hours? Why did you call me?"
"Our customer service is available 24 hours, Miss Isla. You were wearing QY's dress, jewelry, and high heels at the award ceremony..."
"Because you plagiarized Anika' work and seriously defamed our brand, we have blacklisted you."
"If you continue to wear our brand's products in the future, we will take you to court..."
"What did you say? Hello, hello??" Isla thought she heard wrong and before she could clarify, the other person hung up the phone.
At this moment, Isla's phone made a sound and she received a text message alert, indicating that she had been blacklisted by the brand and was no longer eligible to wear QY's products!
"What happened?" Mrs. Wilson vaguely heard their conversation.
"Mom, Abella somehow managed to get QY to blacklist me! They said I defamed their brand!" Isla cried in anger.
Why? After causing her to lose so much money, embarrassing her in front of her parents, boyfriend, and the audience, wasn't that enough?
Now QY wants to blacklist her? This is too much!
"It's just a brand, why are they acting so superior! They even called you specifically... Do they just want to humiliate you?" Mrs. Wilson was also furious. "A prestigious international brand, making things difficult for a customer? Is that meaningful?"
"Mom, what should I do? I can't wear QY's products anymore..."
"It's just a brand, Mom will buy you more limited editions in the future..." Mrs.
Wilson comforted. "Stop crying, silly child, is a brand worth crying like this?"
"Mom, you don't understand..."
QY is a top international brand, loved by many celebrities, socialites, and heiresses because of its unique and innovative products.
As long as you wear QY's products, no matter the occasion, you will outshine others...
But now, everything has been ruined by Abella!
"Okay, okay..." Mrs. Wilson could only continue to comfort her.
Meanwhile...
Remy hadn't contacted Isla for three whole days, and he couldn't believe he could resist contacting her for that long...
Maybe he didn't love her as much as he thought...
No matter how many calls Isla made in these three days, Remy turned a blind eye, though his heart felt a pang...
Mrs. Hamilton sat on the couch and spoke coldly as she saw him come out after taking a shower, "Stop."
"Mom, is there something wrong?"
"I told you to break up with that girl from the Wilson family, did you do it?"
Remy didn't answer, although he hadn't officially broken up with her, their relationship was almost over.
"I want you to pursue Abella!"
Remy widened his eyes, thinking he misheard.
"Abella was previously from the Wilson family, we had a betrothal with her. She must have an unconscious desire to be with us."
"Consider Abella as your fiancé, she had feelings for you, but Isla intervened and her cunning schemes..."
"Mom, Isla is not cunning." Remy couldn't help but interrupt.
"What about her doesn't match the cunning character? Am I just getting old and can't see it?" Mrs. Hamilton thought Isla was talented because Mr. Wilson was the richest man in New York...
But in the end, the Wilson family fell into poverty, and Isla's talent was just a facade...
It's really infuriating!
"You can tell Abella that you are willing to lower yourself and be with her, regardless of whether she is the heiress of the Wilson family or whether her biological family is poor. Even if we, the Johnson family, have to lower our status... as long as she publicly announces herself as Anika during the engagement and performs a few piano pieces on the spot..."
"Mom, are you dreaming?" Remy couldn't help but interrupt her beautiful fantasy.
"Do you know Anika' income? Just in taxes, her amount is in billions. Our family's assets combined probably don't even amount to half of that..."
Anika is low-key and doesn't participate in the ranking of billionaires. Otherwise, she would be at the top!
There's no such thing as the Wilson family or the Johnson family.
"She's just playing a few piano pieces, and she earns that much?"
"Of course!"
Mrs. Hamilton pondered for a moment. "Isn't that even better? Marry a wife who can earn money, isn't that better than marrying that cunning woman?"
"..."
Remy was rendered speechless. It's as if he said he's willing to pursue Abella, and she would be interested in him.
With Abella's personality, an ordinary person wouldn't be able to handle her.
"Anyway, as long as you care about her, remember her preferences, surprise her on holidays, and persistently pursue her, she will eventually surrender!" Mrs. Hamilton was confident. "Whether the Johnson family can gain recognition in high society depends on you, my son!"
Remy stood there defeated, in a deep thought.
