Chapter 25 Mr. Landau Came Here
Courtney Sachs laughed sarcastically, staring at Mr. Reese, "Mr. Reese, do you think I'm just fooling around, competing with Julian Quinn over such a trivial advertisement?"
Mr. Reese's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He finally understood that they not only competed for a role, but for pride!
The way everyone looked at Julian Quinn changed again. The ambiguous glances made Julian feel like she was about to explode with anger.
She slammed her hand on the table, pointing at Courtney Sachs, "Courtney, are you out of your mind? Is Lilian Rossum your mother? Why are you helping her so much? What benefit do you get from targeting me?"
"I just feel like it! Her own husband doesn't support her, so who else will if not me? Do you think that everyone is like you, fawning over men, shamelessly seducing someone else's husband and flaunting in front of the original wife. Our Lily (Lilian Rossum) doesn't have as thick a skin as you."
"You, you!!" Julian Quinn, unable to contain her anger, lunged at Courtney Sachs.
Fortunately, the people around them quickly intervened.
"Mr. Landau is here!" someone shouted.
The office fell silent for a moment. Everyone turned to look at the door. Frank Landau stood there in a suit, with his hands in his pockets, and indifferently observed the drama unfolding.
His gaze swept over the room, from Julian Quinn to Courtney Sachs, and finally settled on Lilian Rossum.
The moment Lilian met Frank's eyes, she quickly lowered her head.
Julian Quinn, seeing Frank as her savior, limped towards Frank Landau.
"Frank, you're finally here. Courtney Sachs bullies me every time!"
Courtney Sachs, seeing Julian's act so pitifully, felt nauseated, "Please, keep your drama to yourself. It's embarrassing."
Mr. Reese, regaining his composure, gestured, "Mr. Landau, what brings you here? Please come in."
Frank Landau raised his hand to decline, and asked, "The role hadn't been decided?"
"Well, Miss Sachs is not willing to compromise, you see..."
Frank Landau glanced at Mr. Reese, "Your game is well-made. I'll invest two hundred million. If the Sachs family is interested, ask Lester Sachs to see me."
His gaze shifted to Courtney Sachs as he spoke, making it clear that the message was also for Courtney.
Mr. Reese: "..."
"Frank Landau, what do you mean?"
Frank Landau looked at her indifferently, "I mean exactly what I said. Courtney, you're not qualified to negotiate with me."
"You..." Courtney Sachs was taken aback by his audacity. She laughed sarcastically, "Frank Landau, your wife is right here. If you don't care about her, just divorce her. Don't make everyone sick."
Frank Landau's eyes darkened, his tone chilling, "Who are you to her?"
"It doesn't matter who I am to her. At least I'm better than a decoration like you! At least I won't let her be humiliated in front of others!"
Frank Landau smirked coldly, "Is this how the Sachs family educates its members? To meddle in others' family affairs? If you don't want Lilian to be upset, you shouldn't have taken her here. Do you think what you're doing can change anything?"
Courtney Sachs was momentarily speechless. She knew how Frank Landau treated Lilian Rossum, yet she still insisted on standing up for her. The result was evident, making Lilian the laughingstock.
Although Frank Landau played a part in this situation, Courtney Sachs, knowing the outcome and still persisting, bore most of the blame.
"Indeed, I have overestimated her position in your heart. This is my fault."
As Courtney Sachs finished speaking, Lester Sachs rushed in.
Breathless, as if he had run up. Lester entered the office and went straight to Courtney Sachs.
"Courtney, you're causing trouble again. Come home with me!" Lester Sachs tried to pull her away, but she resisted. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Courtney Sachs held back her anger, nowhere to speak out.
"Lilian, come here," Frank Landau suddenly called out.
Courtney Sachs turned to Lilian Rossum, glaring at her, "Don't go."
Lilian stood there, looking lost. Seeing the coldness in Frank Landau's eyes, she hesitated to slowly step forward.
Courtney grabbed her arm, "Things have already come to this. Why are you still going to him? Let Frank Landau make a stand today. Either divorce or break up with that woman. Everyone is watching. Show some backbone, will you?"
