The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming-Chapter 321 - 318: You Are the Heir

"Elliana, when did you get here?" Shawn Lyle couldn’t help but ask another question.

Unexpectedly, the voice on the other end of the phone was quite impatient, "Forget it if you don’t want it, don’t come to me in the future, where do you think I got the money from?"

The last sentence made him instantly understand that the sum that Lyle Corporation needed now couldn’t be covered by Elliana. It must rely on Norman Bennett.

And there’s no way Norman would give her money to use as a bailout, so the origin of this money must be sneaky.

To his surprise, this daughter still thought of her father in her heart, and with things at this point, once the storm passed, he wouldn’t be unable to accept her graciously.

As long as this daughter obeyed him in the future and didn’t oppose him, although it was impossible to pass Lyle Corporation to her, she wouldn’t want for anything in her later years.

So he said, "Alright, alright, darling daughter, don’t be mad, dad’s coming right over. Just wait for dad, alright? Dad’s out, a bit far, it’ll take dad at least four hours even if I drive fast."

"Drive safely and don’t speed," Elliana had to remind him, not out of much concern for Shawn Lyle’s safety, but because she worried about others’ safety.

Shawn Lyle was suddenly overjoyed and hurriedly replied with a chuckle, "Okay, okay, you obediently wait for dad. I’ll hang up first."

After hanging up the phone, Shawn Lyle glanced at that door again, his eyes full of ruthlessness.

A few minutes later.

Knock, knock knock!

The sound of knocking came again, startling Tiana Harris, who was already in a state of high tension, causing her to stand up from her chair.

...

--- North City.

"Are you saying... you got involved in Lyle Corporation from the start?" Elliana was a little stunned after hearing what Norman Bennett said.

Everything had started from Shawn Lyle approaching Norman Bennett to borrow money.

So this crisis at Lyle Corporation was also caused by Norman Bennett!

What puzzled her was... Adrian Davies was clearly on the same side as Shawn Lyle, so why would he help Norman Bennett to harm Shawn Lyle?

She simply asked directly.

Sitting cross-legged at the head of the bed, with Norman Bennett resting his upper body against the bedhead and looking at her questioning face, there was a hint of an unfathomable feeling in his eyes.

"The negotiation comes down to the terms."

Norman Bennett spoke very calmly, almost devoid of emotion.

Even though the words didn’t reveal how it was done, she understood what it meant.

It must be that the terms Norman offered were more enticing than Shawn Lyle’s, but she thought the chances of Norman doing such a thing were low.

She believed more that Norman had discovered something about Adrian Davies, the specifics of which she did not know, but if he didn’t say, she wouldn’t force him to ask.

Why bring down Lyle Corporation? To annex it? She didn’t believe Norman was such an ambitious person.

Although he indeed had a part of "ambition" in the business world, she didn’t believe Norman would target her family.

Even if she herself didn’t like the Lyle family, she still couldn’t quite accept this outcome.

"Girl."

The man reached out to pull her into his arms, and though she felt a bit resistant at the moment, she didn’t make any move to resist, smoothly entering his embrace.

He cupped her face with extreme seriousness, and with a very serious tone, he said, "Girl, listen to me. The reason I want to acquire Lyle Corporation is because the Bennetts intended to do so from the start, but I don’t want Lyle Corporation, nor do I want to let it be swallowed by the Bennetts. I want to shift its development direction, to transform Lyle Corporation from the brink of obsolescence to success, and then transfer it to you. You are the rightful heir to Lyle Corporation."
