Chapter 16 At that moment , Andrew received a call from Marvin .

Mr.

Lloyd , Christina wants that orphanage property , Should we give it to her ? Marvin asked .

Andrew thought for a moment before replying , Handle it as you see fit .

But given our history , If Stevens Corporation makes a decent offer , let them have it .

Marvin sighed , I knew you still had a soft spot for that woman .

Alright , I guess Stevens Corporation is getting a good deal .

Soon after , Christina received news that Wealthroller Investments had agreed to let Stevens Corporation develop the property .

She was overwhelmed by the sudden turn of events and could hardly believe it .

Mr.

Yates finally changed his mind ? The staff who delivered the message explained , Ms.

Stevens , your reputation as Jayrodales rising business star precedes you .

To be frank , Mr.

Yates received a phone call and immediately agreed to give it to you .

Christina was stunned when he heard that one phone call had changed Marvins mind .

She turned to Shawn , genuinely grateful .

Please thank your father for me .

Youve been a huge help , and I wont forget this ? Shawn froze , his face contorted as if he had eaten something sour .

He knew the truth his family had no pull with Wealthroller Investments .

Moreover , Tony did not even have Marvins number , let alone the ability to make such a call .

Is everything okay ? You look troubled , Christina asked , noticing Shawns odd expression .

Shawn forced a laugh and quickly said , No , no , everythings fine .

Its all going according to plan .

I told you to relax , Christie .

This kind of thing is childs play for the Fields family .

While he bragged , he secretly wondered who the big shot was that could sway Marvin with just one call .

Oblivious to Shawns nervousness , Christina smiled .

Youve been a great help to Stevens Corporation .

Id like to treat you to dinner tonight .

Shawns face lit up .

Id be honored to join you for dinner , Christie .
