She Was the Treasure All Along novel Chapter 415

"Because my last name is Lonsdale!" Loyce's voice spiked sharply, carrying a chilling aura of command that instantly overpowered Warren's roar. "Because every brick and tile of Macrostar was built by my parents, and every piece of paper, every contract, legally has my name written on it plain as day! It's not the place of you wage-earners to run your mouths!"

A group of high-level executives, so used to bossing people around in the business world, found themselves collectively suppressed by the sheer presence of a little girl.

And she was right. Over all these years, Macrostar had always been the inheritance of Loyce's parents, and while her parents were alive, they had already transferred the assets to Loyce for her to inherit once she turned eighteen.

If it truly went to court, with the powerful men of the main Lonsdale family backing her, Edgar really could be ousted.

The tense, swords-drawn atmosphere at the dining table was so terrifying that Sybil shrank into the corner, too afraid to speak. Yet Loyce kept her back perfectly straight, her eyes meeting everyone's gaze without a shred of fear. She looked less like a college student and more like a cutthroat businesswoman who had waded through blood in the corporate world.

Alicia's mind worked the fastest. She knew that continuing to butt heads would only hand someone a weakness to exploit. So, she grabbed Edgar's arm and spoke up to soften the mood. "Loyce is young and promising, I see that clearly. But everyone knows Macrostar is a massive operation. It covers real estate, fashion, and multiple other sectors, with a complicated internal structure and endless management details. It's a good thing for young people to have drive, but it also takes time to settle down and learn."

Another executive, who managed the 'Élégance' brand operations, immediately piggybacked off his boss's words, a "kind" smile on his face. "Mrs. Lonsdale makes a fair point. Ms. Lonsdale is still of school age, after all. She probably needs to deeply understand the domestic market environment and Macrostar's specific operational workflows. Taking over rashly—if there's a misstep, it wouldn't just be bad for Ms. Lonsdale, but it would have a huge impact on Macrostar and the Lonsdale family."

Alicia nodded repeatedly from the sidelines, sighing right on cue. "Sigh, I actually agree that Loyce is my brother-in-law and sister-in-law's only bloodline, and Macrostar should naturally be handed over to her. It's only right. But precisely because of that, as her elders, we need to consider things thoroughly for her. We can't let her bear pressure that exceeds her capabilities."

Alicia shifted tactics, hoisting the flags of "responsibility" and "care" high into the air.

Catching his wife's hint, Edgar understood that completely tearing their faces apart with a junior on such an occasion wouldn't look good. So, he softened his tone as well. "Alicia is right. Loyce, your uncle means no harm. I genuinely want what's best for you. Handing such a massive operation directly to you—never mind us worrying, even your grandfather wouldn't be able to rest easy if he knew."

Alicia chimed in again: "How about this: you start with a specific business first? I happen to have a brand that's perfect for young people to practice with, 'Bloomberry.' It's targeted at the teen market, full of vitality, and matches your age. It's easy to get the hang of."

Loyce noticed that Alicia had gotten smarter after lying low for a while.
