Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 244

The call lasted only three minutes, but Brian's face went from pale to gloomy, and by the time he hung up, his eyes were practically bulging out of his head.

"Mr. Cedillo..."

Andre kept his cool, "Looks like you got the call from the company."

Brian’s vibe noticeably weakened as he was tightly restrained by Andre. "The Calder Corporation collaboration, you, you..."

Andre chuckled, speaking casually, "Calder Corporation has been backing the Marshal family for fifteen years now. It's about time we gave other companies a shot."

Calder Corporation was a partner of the Marshal Group. After saving Andre fifteen years ago, the Cedillo family thanked him by introducing Calder Corporation as a partner.

Calder Corporation used to be a subsidiary of the Cedillo Group, but then it branched out on its own while still maintaining a tight relationship with the Cedillos.

For many years, Brian thought that Calder Corporation had grown into a big enterprise, no longer under Andre's control. But to his surprise, Andre dared to breach the contract, risking a hefty penalty.

Calder Corporation was not lacking in partners, but he was.

Andre said, "Brian, you're so busy you don't even have time to entertain guests. You seem a bit absent-minded. It looks like work has been overwhelming. So let me help relieve some work pressure for you, no need to thank me. The Marshal Group is already a mature enterprise, it doesn't need my assistance anymore."

Andre stood up, holding Mia's hand, ready to leave.

Brian quickly stood up, blocking Andre, "Andre, you can't just cut us off like that, can you?"

Andre said, "Cut off?"

He glanced at his nephew, then at the phone on the table. "I thought you did it on purpose, but you blamed me and my nephew for ruining your business just because a cup broke. You detained my nephew privately, treated him like a criminal, even confiscated his phone. Who's really cutting who off here?"

Brian quickly handed the phone on the table to Leo.

Leo took it.

Jillian knew the importance of Calder Corporation to the Marshal family. She went over and tried to grab Andre's wrist with both hands. Anticipating her move, Andre pulled Mia from his right to his left.

Jillian's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.

Mia said, "What are you trying to do, grab my husband? If you dare to touch my husband today, I'll make you pay."

Jillian was so angry with Mia she was about to lose it, "Move aside, don't get in the way of me talking to Andre."

"Jillian, are you out of your mind? Every word I speak to you now feels like a waste."

Jillian walked around Mia, standing in front of Andre blocking his way. "Andre, you can't withdraw your investment from Calder Corporation. You're driving our family into a dead end. My father saved you years ago. Is his favor only worth fifteen years?"

Mia said, "...I don't know whether it's my sense of right and wrong that's twisted, or yours."

Leo said, "When it comes to shamelessness, your family really takes the cake."

Andre: "If someone was in a bind, would you just stand by and do nothing?"

After saying that, he looked meaningfully at Brian, then left with his wife and nephew.

Brian was taken aback as he watched Andre's retreating figure. What did he mean by that?

Inside the house, Jillian asked her father, "Dad, what did he mean just now? Will Andre help us?"

Brian still hadn't recovered from his shock.

Andre started the car and drove off. Halfway, he told Leo, "Toss the phone."

They drove to a deserted area, and Leo threw his phone out of the window. They were both worried the phone had been tampered with.
