Eddy’s expression shifted upon hearing Layla’s request. “What did you say?”
He was happy to help Caroline and endorse her. Indeed, Caroline had proved that she was capable
of managing. But he had severe doubts about Layla.
Eddy recalled the last deal that had resulted in a loss and his eyebrows scrunched up tightly. “NO way! I can agree
to anything else, but never this. Do you know how much effort it takes to manage such a big company? Have you
already forgotten what happened with the Evanson Corporation?”
“Eddy.” Layla’s hands clenched into fists. She would always feel hurt when it came to that matter. “Of course I
know. That’s why I’ll hand the Collins Group over to someone else to manage once I
get it.”
She clarified, “Eddy, I don’t want this because of the Collins Group’s position among the top four. I

Eddy frowned even harder, but he could not back down on this..
If he helped Layla acquire the Collins Group, the Morrison Corporation would have to deal with the
potential fallout if the group wasn’t managed well. There was too much risk involved.
“Eddy, are you really going to leave me to fend for myself?” Layla cried devastatingly. “I just don’t
want Caroline to bully me after I lose you. I merely want some assurances for myself… Now, only
having the Collins Group will give me a sense of security.”
Hearing Layla cry, Eddy felt very frustrated. Suddenly, he looked at Layla. “Do you really want the
Collins Group because you’re worried Caroline will take revenge on you?”
Stunned, Layla quickly nodded after coming back to herself. “Yes.”
“Alright. Then I’ll give you a hand and endorse you. I’ll help you acquire the Collins Group.”
Eddy’s sudden change of mind left Layla uncertain. “Eddy, are you lying to me?”
“No.” Eddy repeated himself again. “But let me make something clear. I’m only going to be your guarantor,
Acquiring the Collins Group will have to depend on your own abilities
“That’s not a problem. In truth, Layla hadn’t expected things to go so smoothly. Furthermore, Eddy was going to be
her guarantor himself. There was no chance that she would fail to get her hands on the Collins Group now.

shot looks like.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSonia and Cheryl were very curious too. “Caroline, can you do a livestream when you meet him? We really want to
know what this president looks like as well.”
Caroline chuckled. “A livestream, too? You’re making it seem like I’m visiting a zoo. I’ll try to
sneak a photo when the time comes.”
“Alright! Let’s see what kind of hottie this guy is!” Gwen was overjoyed.
Caroline was actually really excited as well.
In the blink of an eye, a week passed. After getting off work, Caroline drove the car to the
restaurant.
To stop Kirk from worrying, she had planned to have him with her. Unfortunately, Kirk was called away by Sean, so
she could only attend the meeting by herself.

man already sitting there with his back toward her.
