She Was the Treasure All Along novel Chapter 412

"Loyce..." Gordon pondered for a moment, his fingers gently tapping on the file folder on the desk. "You must think this through. Macrostar has been operated by Edgar for nearly twenty years. It's no longer the same as it was, and the core team are all his people. If you want to take it back, the resistance you face won't be small. This isn't just about signing your name and doing a handover. This is going to be a tough battle."

"If it's my responsibility, I'll shoulder it. If it's my property, I'll take it back. So what if it hurts a little? Is the Lonsdale family really afraid of a little storm like this?"

Loyce's tone was indifferent, yet it carried an undeniable undercurrent of absolute confidence.

"Well said! The true bloodline of our Lonsdale family has guts!" Gordon slammed his hand on the table, his old eyes bursting with admiration and pride. "Behind Loyce stands the entire Lonsdale Group! Standing behind you are your grandfather and your brothers. Even if you fail, we'll be your safety net! Just go for it, little girl! Show them all what you're made of!"

The return of the eldest daughter of the Lonsdale family was already known to a portion of the elite socialite circle. However, most people still turned their noses up at her. Those who had only heard of her considered her a bloodsucking leech from the countryside trying to latch onto a wealthy family. Yet, those who truly knew her practically worshipped her like a god. The contrast was staggering.

Feeling the old man's unreserved support, a warm current flowed through Loyce's heart. She accepted the invitation, her fingers tracing over the name "Loyce." The corners of her mouth curled into a faint but sharp smile. "Don't worry, Grandpa. I'll make sure to attend this party properly."

Edgar Lonsdale's newly purchased mansion was packed with guests tonight.

A massive crystal chandelier illuminated the high-ceilinged living room as bright as day. Melodious strings flowed through the air amidst the clinking of glasses.

Aside from the personal friends of Edgar and his wife, most of the invited guests were high-level executives from Macrostar Production's board of directors and business partners with deep ties to them.

The air was thick with flattery, probing questions, and an unspoken pursuit of wealth and status.

Edgar, dressed in a meticulously tailored custom suit and holding a glass of champagne, was red-faced and beaming as he accepted everyone's congratulations, looking every bit the master of the Macrostar empire.

Alicia Seabrook, on the other hand, wore a luxurious, elegant dress. With a perfectly poised smile, she navigated effortlessly among the wealthy socialites. Standing in the corner was Sybil Seabrook, trying hard to keep her back straight and regain her former radiance, though a lingering trace of gloom and timidity remained on her brow.

She had been suppressed too ruthlessly by Loyce before. Whenever the outside world brought her name up, it was always laced with a bit of mockery, causing her to avoid the public eye for a long time out of a sense of inferiority.

"Congratulations on the new home, Mr. Lonsdale! Aqua Estate is truly a prime location!"
