Chapter 130
Whenever she felt on the verge of breaking down, she would try to hold herself back in this manner.
“If you’re after the money, have your lawyer contact me.
Let’s see if you have any legal right to it.
”
“You! You ungrateful brat!” Benny’s anger was so intense that he nearly stumbled to the ground.
Kendra rushed to his side to assist him.
She glanced at the onlookers gathered around and came up with an idea.
She took a seat on the floor, slapped her thighs with both hands and let out a heart-wrenching cry.
“Lindsey, even though I’m not your real mother, I’ve always loved you as if you were my own! Your biological mother is wealthy, yet she left you behind.
It was your father who brought you up! Now that your family’s facing financial bankruptcy, you’re worried about being dragged down with us.
So, you’re cutting ties and planning to seek shelter with your mother.
We get it, and we won’t stand in your way.
But you shouldn’t have used that money to support a man! Don’t you realize the family business is struggling with capital turnover?
Without that money, the company is headed for bankruptcy.
Your father’s health has always been fragile.
How do you expect him to handle this kind of shock? Is this how you show gratitude for all the care he’s given you?”
Kendra’s words painted Lindsey as a selfish and ungrateful daughter in everyone’s eyes.
In addition, whispers spread about her in the company.
Her colleagues were already biased against her.
“Is she the executive agent who got promoted right after joining the Agent Department?”
“She didn’t just secure that position through connections; she also dipped into her family’s funds to support a man.
Shame on her!”
“Her parents must be unfortunate to have a snobbish daughter like her!”
Lindsey’s gaze bore the weight of her anger as it pierced through Kendra.
Her circumstances at the company were already challenging, and with Kendra publicly tarnishing her reputation in this manner, things were poised to become even more complicated.
She inhaled deeply, seeking to regain her composure.
Next, she approached Kendra and fixed her with a chilly stare.

“Vitality Entertainment isn’t where you can create a scene at your will.
If you persist in this behavior, I’ll request the security personnel to escort you out! Or would you prefer I summon the police?”
Upon hearing Lindsey’s involvement with the police, Kendra recognized that staying longer wouldn’t be to her advantage.
While she hadn’t obtained the money this time, she had successfully created further disappointment in Benny’s eyes regarding Lindsey.
Additionally, she had tarnished Lindsey’s reputation within the company.
So, the visit hadn’t been entirely in vain.
Kendra felt a sense of contentment wash over her.
She rose to her feet, dried her tears, and approached to assist Benny, who was catching his breath heavily.
Feigning unease, she spoke with a semblance of solemnity.
“Lindsey, we were left with no alternative but to approach you.
Our intention isn’t to humiliate you.
Please refrain from calling security or the police.
We’ll depart on our own accord.
We’re heading out now-“
As they observed her walking out, arm in arm with that silver-haired man, the crowd’s disdain and displeasure towards Lindsey intensified.
It didn’t take long for the two colleagues who had been criticized by Lindsey to catch wind of the visit of Lindsey’s parents.
They blew the situation out of proportion and shared the story with everyone at the company.
Later that day, Jayleen called Lindsey into her office.
“Lindsey, what’s going on with you? Just a couple of days after your promotion, people in the company started complaining about you! I heard your parents showed up at the company this morning and made quite a mess, causing quite a stir!
Now everyone’s talking, claiming your behavior isn’t up to standard.
