Desmond paused for a moment and then left.
Meanwhile, Mango took a sip of the milk while sitting on Nathaniel's chair. Then, she closed her eyes and thought about her plan carefully. After making sure that she did not miss anyone out, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Alright, now, she only needed to wait to see whether her plans would succeed.
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Lilith's parents began to make trouble at the entrance of HY group.
After Clarissa received the news, she obeyed Mango's instructions and protected Lilith from the commotion.
Meanwhile, Lilith cried heavily when she video called Mango.
"Ms. Shen, I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!"
"There's no need to apologise. You are now an employee of my company, so I can't leave you alone. Put your trust on me, and don't intervene with the other things. Just listen to what Clarissa tells you to do."
Lilith eventually calmed down a little after Mango
comforted her.
"But my parents are parasites. They won't stop until they suck me dry by taking all of my money!"
"Do you keep the receipts of all the transfers that you've made to them?"
Lilith nodded hurriedly in response to Mango's question.
"Yes, I have all of them!"
"Print it out and give it to Clarissa. Then, leave the rest to us."
"Okay, thank you, Ms. Shen. If this matter can be solved, I will definitely do my best and work for the company."
Lilith was grateful, and she didn't know how to express her gratitude out to Mango anymore.
Somehow, Mango's calm and composed attitude made her feel confident, and she could get rid of her troublesome parents.
"We'll talk about this later. Just work hard in the future."
After Mango hung up the phone, she sent a message to Clarissa.
"My people found out that Lilith's grandmother raised her when she was a child. Her parents did not support her until she started working. This might be a breakthrough, so let's try to find her
grandmother."
Clarissa quickly said, "Ned has already brought Lilith's grandmother over. There are also a few pieces of evidence that Mr. Ye has gathered. I will conduct the press conference immediately, and I guarantee that Lilith's parents' reputation will be ruined this time."
Mango paused for a moment after hearing her words.
Did Nathaniel do all these things?
He must have taken action that morning when she slept in late and met Charlotte outside his company!
She was touched by Nathaniel's kindness as he had always helped her secretly without telling her.
She wondered how Nathaniel was doing currently. Had he arrived at Welbenia? Also, how was his neuralgia?
Thus, Mango became distracted for a moment.
"Since everything is ready, then let's do it. I'll leave Lilith's parents to you then."
"Got it, Ms. Shen."
Clarissa hung up the phone after that.
Mango touched her chin. It seemed that Lawrence had not made any moves yet, and she was surprised that he could be this patient.
When she looked at the clock, she realised that Andrea would be arriving in Ocean City soon. Thus, she was worried that something unexpected would happen.
Meanwhile, Mango waited anxiously.
Just then, there was news from Desmond saying that Lawrence had completely given up on the company. He didn't even care about the mess involving his company and allowed everything to worsen.
However, Mango felt anxious, but she didn't know why.
This wasn't what an ordinary person would do. After all, he had worked hard for so many years. Even if he didn't want the company, he could have left it to Andrea, right?
A sense of fear arose in her when she heard that Lawrence had completely given up his company.
That man was a lunatic, wasn't he?
Mango silently prayed in her heart and hoped for the best. However, she knew that she had to do something.
"Desmond, check if Lawrence has made any financial plans for Andrea in advance."
Desmond paused for a moment, but he still managed to find out quickly.
"Three months ago, Lawrence suddenly bought ten million worth of financial insurance for Andrea, and it's supposed to last for ten years. In addition, he bought some shares as well, including the shares of the Ye family."
Mango furrowed her brows tightly when she heard this.
It seemed that her prediction was correct.
Lawrence was planning to sacrifice his life!
He had already arranged everything for Andrea.
She knew that Lawrence loved Queena, but she didn't expect he would take these desperate measures because of his love.
Queena was dead, so Andrea became the only reason that he had continued living till now. Now that he had arranged everything for Andrea in advance, it could only mean one thing. He wanted to drag her to hell with him!
Mango immediately broke out in a cold sweat at this thought.
She wasn't afraid to confront her enemies, but she was terrified at the thought of having to go against a lunatic like him!
"Madam, are you thinking of something?"
Desmond couldn't help but ask when he heard that Mango had requested him to find out about this.
Meanwhile, Mango was racking her brain out.
Originally, she planned to let Desmond and the others deal with Lawrence, and she would be heading directly to Welbenia to find Nathaniel and William. However, it seemed that she had to change the plan.
"Come and pick me up from the airport. I will escort Andrea personally to my grandpa's house."
However, Desmond didn't agree with her decision.
"No, Lawrence's men are watching you nearby. Also, you have our people protecting you in the Ye's mansion and the company. On the other hand, it's crowded at the airport, so unexpected incidents might happen. You're putting yourself on danger by doing this!"
Desmond completely disagreed with her right now.
