Cody wasn't letting up. "Meeting Sean is one thing; figuring out how to get through this tough time is another."
Finn said, his voice heavy with stress, "There's a lot of rumors out there. Besides the projects with Yonder Digital, other companies we were looking to partner with have put their plans on hold. And as for the stock..." He trailed off, and the Nelson family fell silent again. Selena looked worried. "So what do we do now? If we meet Sean the day after tomorrow and he still won't budge, are we just going to take this hit?" Rebecca sighed. "If f only we had signed the contract earlier. Even if Sean backed out, the hefty compensation wouldn't leave us in such a bind..."
Finn pressed his lips together and stayed quiet.
Cody's expression darkened. "What do you know about business? Signing contracts isn't something you just scribble your name on! We're trying to maximize benefits here. Otherwise, how do you think the Nelson family got to where we are today?" He then turned to Finn. "Contact our long-term clients and the companies we're working with. See if we can offload the projects we were going to give to Yonder Digital. It'll help minimize our losses."
Fin f fout a heavy breath. "I called them all this morning. They all turned us down."
Cody's face soured even more.
Amid the silence, Yvette's voice broke in softly. "What about the Lopez family?"
Everyone turned to look at her, and she continued, "Mr. Lopez was at the birthday party last night. Given our engagement, the Lopez family won't just leave us hanging, right?"
Yvette had met Walter a couple of times. He was stunningly handsome, with an extraordinary presence-charming and edgy, even more so than some stars who relied solely on looks to get by in showbiz. It was a pity he was wheelchair-bound and had a quirky temper. Otherwise, Shakira wouldn't stand a chance of getting engaged to him. "Yes!" Cody's face lit up with hope. "Other companies will take time, but the Lopez family could take on the whole project at once."
He stepped forward, clapping Yvette on the shoulder, his eyes sparkling. "Yvette, your grandma was right-we're all on you
now.
Selena beamed. "Exactly! Yvette is our family's lucky star. With her here, everything can turn good."
Yvette couldn't help but smile, a proud spark lighting up her eyes.
While Shakira was handing Sean a list of things to take care of, the Smith family called her twice. She glanced at her phone and quickly hit the block button.
Just then, there was a knock at the door, and a servant called out, "Mr. Lopez's pet needs to be fed. The trainer is on leave, so you'll have to do it today." Shakira couldn't help but wonder, 'Walter the devil has a heart to keep pets?'
