Chapter 202 Paying for Quintessential

“Mr. Taon, I don’t see what you’re so smug about. If Quintessential doesn’t pay up, then Lilyrose Bank would lose a whopping 50 million

dollars in bad debt.”

Darcy was infuriated at the sight of Maurice.

The man was the driving force behind Quintessential Group’s predicament.

“Are you saying that your company is planning to skip paying?”

Maurice scoffed and turned to the press. “You heard Ms. Quint. Don’t forget to put it in your reports. Isn’t the public in favor of her now? People are on her side.

“She is no better than her college friend, Joy. One is a traitor, and the

other’s a cheat.

“Tsk, tsk. A beautiful CEO turns out to be a cheat. Now that’s what I

call a headliner.”

Maurice’s accusation set off a flurry of camera flashes at Darcy.

“Ms. Quint, are you admitting that you’re a cheat?” a reporter asked

aloud.

“I’m sorry, everyone. That wasn’t what I said,” Darcy explained in a

fluster.

A lie repeated often enough would become the truth.

Being labeled as a cheat would throw her into public backlash once

more.

Besides, she was the face of Quintessential Group.

At this rate, the company would have no chance at redemption.

Kaze took her arm. “Stop explaining yourself, babe. The press is with Maurice, so no amount of explaining would change their mind. The best way to move forward is to prove the group has money. Tear them down with facts.”

He had given Ray a call when taking the lift down.

The grand fireworks display that Kaze had promised Darcy was set to begin.

Kaze’s words silenced the commotion at the company entrance.
