The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 123

Shakira exited Lago's company and got into a Rolls-Royce Phantom parked nearby. Inside the car, Sean, who had listened to the entire board meeting upstairs via his Bluetooth headset, poured a glass of red wine and handed it to Shakira casually. "Congratulations,

boss!"

Shakira sat next to him, took the wine glass, and gently swirled it her eyes slightly raised. "What's there to celebrate?"

"Getting revenge isn't worth a toast?" Shakira paused her swirling, then tilted her head back, finishing the wine with a soft. laugh. "This is far from over."

Sean didn't quite catch it and was about to ask when Shakira's phone rang. It was Mitchell calling.

Before Shakira could answer, Sean swiftly grabbed the phone and connected the call, putting it on speaker with ease, looking eager to see what tricks that guy from the Nelson residence was up to. Shakira fell silent.

Mitchell couldn't wait any longer. "Shakira, I've got some great news for you-Lago is in big trouble, his company's about to go under!"

Shakira replied, "I know." She thought, 'Not only do I know, but I was the one who orchestrated the whole thing.

Mitchell exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, did Walter tell you? My memory isn't great, sorry about that."

"Is that all you wanted to tell me?"

"Wait, don't hang up! There's something really important," Mitchell shouted anxiously. "Shakira, when do you have time? Let's sit down together as a family, have a nice meal, and talk things over calmly, okay?" 'Calmly?' Shakira thought and chuckled sarcastically. "Are you sure that the Nelson family can be calm when they see me?"

Mitchell felt embarrassed and immediately promised, "Don't worry, I've already talked to Mom, Dad, and Finn. They realized the past conflicts were just misunderstandings, and they also felt bad that you almost got caught up in Lago's schemes. Maybe if we sit down as a family, we can really clear things up once and for all?"

Listening to Mitchell, Shakira thought he was naive. Just like she had been naive in her past life.
