Money Only to Burn

Chapter 65

Today, Rainee's mother, Fern Lawrence, will sign with Ronyan Real Estate in the west.

So she got up early in the morning and dressed carefully. He even paid attention to the details of his clothes.

After all, today was the most pleasant day of his life.

"Mom, you look so pretty in these clothes." Rainee nodded in satisfaction as she looked at her mother in a red suit.

Thank ye. When I was young, there were a lot of people chasing me.

If it wasn't for your father's sweet words, I wouldn't have married him. Fern looked around in front of the mirror and was very satisfied with his clothes.

Then he felt it wasn't enough. After thinking for a moment, she grabbed a bottle of perfume at Rainee's dressing table and sprayed it on herself. The perfume filled his body.

"Mom, it's my perfume." Rainee grabbed the perfume bottle and hugged it. She looked very nervous and picked up that precious perfume.

"Little bit of perfume. You are so stingy. " Said Fern with annoyance.

"The perfume is different. It's a gift from Cyril." Rainee held the perfume tightly in her arms, afraid that her mother would use it again.

"Now, do I have to get Cyril's permission to use your perfume? Fern felt nauseous at the thought of using the perfume that Cyril had bought.

She felt Rainee was like a flower pot, which she had been watering and feeding for over 20 years.

However, in the blink of an eye, Cyril was about to take her away.

"Mom, you can use this perfume bottle." Rainee handed Fern another bottle of perfume on the dresser.

"it's too late now, I'm angry!" Fern walked away.

Rainee hurriedly walked over and said a few sweet words.

Then Fern started smiling happily. "All right, I gotta go. If not, it will be too late. I have to go to your grandfather's company first. Some official seals are in the company. " When Fern spoke, he had already walked to the door.

Seeing Fern go out and gradually disappear from his sight, Rainee felt a little uneasy, as if something bad was going to happen today.

"It looks like I couldn't sleep well last night. I'm a little nervous!" Rainee shook her head and went to rest.

At the same time, Griffin Lawrence was waiting for Fern in the company. On the next table, some of the files and documents needed to sign the contract had been prepared.

Griffin even equipped Fern with an assistant. He was afraid that Fern who had not run the company did not understand the process and made a mistake when signing the contract.

"Why hasn't Fern come yet?" Griffin saw that time. Time has shown it almost at 10 a.m.

There were only two hours left before the signing time at 12 a.m. It took an hour from his home to Ronyan Real Estate in the west.

If Fern doesn't come soon, it'll be too late.

"Dad, don't worry. There may be traffic on the road. " Lizbeth Lawrence, who was on Griffin's side, comforted him when he saw Griffin was very anxious.

"Call him quickly. If he doesn't come soon, it'll be too late! "

Griffin was a little angry. How could he feel comfortable handing over the company to Fern if he was late on such an important day?

"Dad, relax. I'll call him right away!" Seeing Griffin angry, Lizbeth was a little pleased. This is what he wanted to see.

Then he pulled out his phone and called, but Fern's phone was turned off. In order for Griffin to hear it clearly, Lizbeth deliberately turned on the loudspeaker.

"Dad, Fern is so annoying. Today was the day to sign the contract, but he completely turned off his phone. What if he really missed the deadline?" Lizbeth said to Griffin.

"That's outrageous!" Griffin slammed the table hard. This was a transaction worth about 200o million dollars. he had never received an order of this magnitude in his life.

If the order can be successfully completed, Griffin company will become the first-class building materials provider in Chinsy. His last wish before retirement was for his company to achieve first-class vendor status in the industry.

"Dad, relax. Fern shouldn't be so reckless. Let's wait a minute! " Lizbeth comforts her while secretly happy.

"Let's wait another hour. You can ask someone else to sign with Ronyan Real Estate if he doesn't come in an hour. " Griffin said after thinking for a moment. He had no other choice. He couldn't give up orders from Ronyan Real Estate for the sake of Fern.

Lizbeth was secretly pleased, but she said, "Is it worth it? It's Fern who took the order. Would he blame me if I signed the contract? "

"He's late, and there's no one to blame? Moreover, how could he be late on such an important day. How can I hand over the position of president to such an incompetent person? " Griffin turned his face in anger.

"Then let's wait a minute!" Lizbeth is secretly excited.

With Griffin's words, he was close to succeeding Fern as the new president!

As time went on, Fern seemed to just disappear. No one can contact him.

Griffin's not playing. He immediately pulled out his phone and called several times, but he still could not contact Fern.

Griffin was reminded of his granddaughter, Rainee, and his daughter-in-law, Tyler. Thinking of this, Griffin called Rainee first, and the phone connected immediately.

"Rainee, when will your mother come? Where is he? "

"Mother leaves early in the morning. Has he not arrived yet?" Rainee initially lay on the sofa to rest. When he heard the news, he immediately lifted up from the sofa and became nervous.

"Letting out early in the morning?" Griffin frowned, and his premonition was unpleasant.

After hanging up the phone, Griffin paced back and forth several times in the office.

Finally, he decided to sign the contract first.

"We won't wait any longer. Lizbeth, bring some people to sign with Ronyan Real Estate. I'm gonna go find Fern. " Griffin could only make this arrangement.

"Okay, Dad, I'll make some arrangements." Hearing this, Lizbeth was secretly delighted. He must know why Fern disappeared! Her husband, Mateo Shaprio, has arranged it.

However, he would release Fern unharmed after the contract was signed and sealed, but by then it was too late, of course.

Moreover, after this incident, Griffin would be more cautious and would not let Fern inherit his position.

"The plan was to kill two birds with one stone".

Lizbeth brings with him the official seal and the required files, as well as two assistants with him and goes to Ronyan Real Estate in the west.

There was only an hour left before time

signing at 12am.

So Lizbeth can still make it there. Right now, Lizbeth was extremely excited, as if everything was under his control.

The already restless Rainee grew even more nervous after receiving her grandfather's phone call. He couldn't reach his mother whose phone was dead.

"What should I do? What am I supposed to do? " Rainee was so anxious that she could only think of one person. "All I can do is ask Cyril for help."

At the critical moment, Rainee thought of Cyril first. Cyril happens to be overseeing the Permanent Cultural Entertainment Company. When he received Rainee's call, he immediately walked to a quiet place.

"What the hell is going on? Don'worry. Tell me what happened."

On the phone, Rainee almost cried. Cyril had to figure out the situation first before making a decision.

Rainee tells Cyril everything about her mother on the phone, including her grandfather's phone call.

"Have you lost touch with your mother?" Cyril shocked. How could Fern miss such an important appointment when he had to sign with Ronyan Real Estate?

"Something really happened to him."

Cyril frowned and thought about it carefully. "Why was he missing on the day of signing the contract?"

"Could it be that his two sisters are playing games?" Cyril could not help but think of the two Rainee cousins who came to take revenge for their mother yesterday.
