Chapter 79 Ride High

Beck returned to the Miller family refreshed after talking with Clare.

Jane walked to him and helped him change his shoes. After he sat on the sofa, Cherry got him a cup of tea with a smile and said, “Dad, I made the tea for you. You can try it.”

Beck took a sip as a favor and nodded with a smile. “My good girl. Can make sweeter tea than others do.”

Cherry laughed happily.

“We’ve been at Smith Group’s mercy. I was groveling in front of Alston even though I’m a senior. We finally get a win this time.”

Jane sat beside Beck, helping him hammer his legs with a smug face.

“The matter hasn’t been settled yet. Behave yourself outside and don’t get carried away.” Although Beck said that, his face also showed complacency.

He and Clare had planned that for a long time. Clare made a sudden move this time. Beck would take heavy losses to break the contract with Miller Group. He thought Alston was never too good to expect he would make such a decision. If Smith Group had no coping strategy and the product, he would lose his trust.

A company without integrity was not far from bankruptcy.

He didn’t think Alston could turn things around under such circumstances.

“Dad, we have broken the contract. Do we have to pay a lot of liquidated damages?” Cherry expressed her

worries when she saw her parents happy.

Some time ago, the Miler family had begun to control expenses subconsciously. Her pocket money had decreased a lot. She hadn’t bought a high–end custom dress and bag for a long time. And she was embarrassed to greet her friends every time she went out.

Her life would be more difficult if they had to pay for the huge liquidated damages.

Cherry gritted her teeth angrily when she recalled what had happened in the clothing store in front of Alston

and Cynthia.

She couldn’t afford those clothes, and she was so embarrassed. But Cynthia, a lowly illegitimate daughter,

was favored by Alston in such a high–profile manner. How could she bear it?
