Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian)

Chapter 66

The Smith family urgently gathered for a pivotal family meeting.

Elijah was sitting at the head of the table, his expression incredibly grave. "As you all know, we invested all our money into the Skylink project. Now that the Shadowtiger Group has collapsed and the project has been forced to halt, our family's downfall seems imminent."

Elijah looked much older than before. The Smith family used to project a strong image, even if they were struggling behind the scenes. But they teetered on the brink of bankruptcy now.

Lyra was the first to voice up, "Grandpa, the Skylink project was all Lillian's doing. If our Smith family goes bankrupt, she'll be the main culprit!"

"Exactly, this trouble was all caused by that wretch. She must take full responsibility," Belinda accused angrily.

Jamie and Lucas cast the blame on Lillian. Even Ronan and Evelyn mocked her.

Tears streamed down Lillian's face. She was feeling a torrent of hurt. She had pursued the Skylink project intending to benefit the family, never anticipating such a dice outcome.. However, she recognized that tears were futile. She composed herself and said, "Grandpa, I acknowledge my part in this crisis. But dwelling on the past won't help us now. "We need to focus on sohing our immediate financial problems. The company needs a minimum of one billion dollars right away to avoid collapse.

"Shut up!" Elijah's sharp rebuke silenced the room as he fixed Lillian with a stem glare. "Were it not for your imprudent ambitions, our family wouldn't be facing this dire predicament" Belinda added with disdain," would've occurred."
