Inside the room, Sofia sat in her specialized wheelchair, looking troubled as she faced the people in front of her.
"You've seen my condition. Since the car accident, my legs are paralyzed. I spend my days confined to this wheelchair."
"As for the family business, my son is entirely in charge."
"I even have to rely on my son to give me a monthly allowance."
"If you're looking to borrow money, you've definitely come to the wrong place."
The middle-aged man sitting opposite Sofia had an overbearing attitude.
"Like it or not, we're still family. Right now, my company is in trouble."
"As my cousin, you can't just sit by and watch my business go under."
"Sofia, I know you're upset about your legs."
"But to say the White family can't afford to lend us money? No one would ever believe that."
"You're too naive. The man you married was so capable; how could he not have left you more inheritance when he died?"
"Your son is only in his twenties, right? He's too young to know how to run a massive company."
"He should hand over the power to you so you can safeguard it."
The man speaking was Sofia's cousin, Ian Sloan.
Hearing this from outside, Murray was so furious he almost kicked the door down.
Where did this idiot come from, spewing such brainless garbage?
Andres clamped a hand onto Murray's shoulder and gave him a sharp 'shush' gesture.
The conversation inside continued.
This time, the one trying to persuade Sofia was Ian's wife, Mrs. Sloan.
"Sofia, Ian and I are at our wits' end. That's why we came to you."
"We're all Sloans at the end of the day. No matter what happens, your maiden family will always be your strongest backing."
"After staying here for a couple of days, I can see how deeply rooted the White family is in Aethelburg."
