The Phantom Heiress Rising From The Shadows

Chapter 1253:

Without a flicker of concern, Jordy lounged back, resting his foot on the empty chair beside her, sounding even more relaxed than before. “I won’t deny it. You did help me once. But those days are gone. Now, I’ve got more wealth than you ever had. Frankly, you mean nothing to me. I’m only here for whatever scraps you’re clutching in your hand.”

“Scraps?” Rosie was both shocked and enraged by his words. “How dare you say something like that to me? The only reason you’ve got anything at all is because of me! Forget it, your family was once nothing in Shirie. If I hadn’t stepped in, you’d have been crushed. Everything I handed you, I can snatch right back.”

If the Harpers hadn’t frozen your accounts and snatched away every last resource you had, perhaps you would still matter in the business world. You managed to cross the one family nobody dares to offend. You’re finished. Take my advice—dump those failing assets now. Every minute you hang on to them, your losses just keep piling up.”
