Chasing the Unexpected (Nyla)

Chapter 704

Seeing Jonathan’s troubled expression, Phoebe set down her teacup and asked, “What’s wrong? Why the long face?”

Jonathan sank onto the sofa, his voice weak. “The company lost another big partnership today. If this keeps up, we’ll be in serious financial trouble.”

Phoebe frowned. “What can we do? Is there any way to hold on a bit longer? Valarie’s blind date hasn’t settled yet!”

They were pushing Valarie into blind dates primarily because the Weir Group was declining and desperately needed a strong partner to help them through this crisis.

At first, Valarie had refused. However, after learning about the company’s situation, she reluctantly agreed to go on dates.

Jonathan remained silent for a moment before speaking seriously. “How about we stop forcing Valarie into blind dates? I’ve thought a lot about this, and compared to the company, her happiness for the rest of her life is more important. We can’t ruin her life just for the sake of the company.”

“Ruin her life? I’m only introducing her to suitable matches! Her life won’t be too hard, and if you don’t push her into blind dates, what if she decides never to marry?” Phoebe countered.

“If she really doesn’t want to get married, then don’t force her. If the Weir Group collapses, that’s just fate,” Jonathan replied.

Phoebe’s eyes filled with tears as she turned her head away, refusing to speak.
