Chapter 1237 Outrageous
"We are just trying to help your husband, we didn't mean anything else. If we offended you anyhow, I'll apologize on their behalf..."
Faye held onto Darcy's hand and apologized with a smile.
Not offensive?
Kaze scoffed. Before he could speak, Darcy beat him to it.
She said coldly, "I can differentiate between what is offensive and what is not. I know you lot look down on my husband. You even believed the rumors about his illegitimate acquisition of the Shangrila Group Chairman position.
"But, you have no idea that it was he who made me the president of Lilyrose Commerce Guild."
Kaze called out to the guild members and elected her as the president.
It was such an astonishing scene that Darcy would never forget.
With Darcy's revelation, everyone looked at Kaze in shock, including Greg.
The shock lasted for a moment before it was replaced by disdain.
They assumed Darcy was just trying to protect her husband, and thus credited her husband for that.
"Oh, I see. President Quint, I didn't know your husband was that capable. We were wrong."
"We'll have to propose a toast and make it up to him."
Despite the disdain, Faye hopped onto Darcy's explanation and tried to resolve the awkward situation. She held Darcy tightly, refusing to let her go.
Darcy refused to stay but Faye insisted. She said with a smile, "President Quint, please calm down. It's really no big deal.
"The guild and the foundation are going to work together in the future. You just donated three hundred million through us and only by working together, the money can reach those in need and contribute to the city after the flood."
Darcy frowned. She could not tell if Faye was flattering or threatening her.
As Faye said, the three hundred million donation had been transferred to Red Foundation and if Darcy decided to walk away, it would surely disrupt the process.
Kaze noticed Darcy's concerns, so he said, "Darcy, let's just stay. I don't mind what they say. Really." "Fine."
Darcy finally eased up and agreed to stay.
Seeing how Kaze easily persuaded Darcy, Greg's expression turned grimmer.
"Kaze Lee, you really are a pussy. We trash talk you and your wife decided to walk away from us just to protect you, making us worry for a second, yet you don't even feel angry and say you don't mind. I have no idea why your wife likes you!"
Darcy's expression turned grim and she wanted to leave again.
She did not expect Greg to be so persistent and criticized Kaze again once they sat down.
Kaze held on to her thigh, signaling her to sit down.
He then looked at Greg and said, "You better pray you won't see the other side of me."
"I'm looking forward to that," Greg scoffed.
Knowing Darcy was concerned about the three hundred million dollar donation, Greg was not afraid Darcy would walk away, so he took advantage of that and challenged Kaze even more.
"There will be a day for that," Kaze said with a smile.
Greg grunted and poured himself a glass of wine.
Lilian raised her glass at Greg and said, "Mr. Nanas, let's just forget about that useless guy. He's just dragging us down.
"Here, a toast! To working together..."
