?Chapter 988:


    Ensley pressed her lips together. It was literally just a dor. The phone call itself cost more than that measly transfer, but she wouldn’t dare voice that thought. Elyse had a razor-sharp tongue.


    “I did transfer it. I have a screenshot to prove it. Take a look.”


    Elyse’s eyesnded on the screenshot—just one dor. “One dor? Is this some kind of joke? Do you think I need a single dor? I’m talking about myndpensation—the millions I’m owed!” Ensley forwarded thend sale contract.


    As Elyse stormed towards Dani’s office, she passed the finance department, whereughter rang out.


    “Can you believe Elyse? Asking me for millions inndpensation? I waspletely speechless!”


    “Exactly! Ms. Harper gifted thatnd straight to Phillips Group for their amusement park. And this old hag thinks she can cash in on it? It’s downright hrious!”


    “Elyse is greed personified. She yed these same tricks on her own sister, and now she’s trying to pull the same stunt on Ms. Harper. Honestly, having a rtive like that is just bad luck for Ms. Harper!”


    “That old hag has no shame. Isn’t Nina a celebrity now? She doesn’t even look after her own mother, yet here Elyse is, leeching off Ms. Harper instead! You should’ve heard her on the phone earlier—acting all high and mighty. If you didn’t know better, you’d think she was the one in charge of thepany!”


    Elyse stood frozen at the finance office doorway, her face twisting with rage.


    The conversation inside carried on. “Didn’t she once tell her own daughter to sell her body? If things are so bad, she can just sell herself now.”


    The moment those wordsnded, Elyse stormed in and pped the speaker across the face.


    Just as Dani wrapped up her meeting, she walked in to find Elyse standing there, face dark with fury. She arched a brow.

    “What’s the matter, Aunt?” Dani’s voice was smooth, unreadable. When it came to putting on an act, she was leagues ahead of Elyse.


    “You sold the vi for just a single dor?”


    “Yeah. Phillips Group is setting up an amusement park. I didn’t feel like charging them for it.”


    Elyse bristled. “Why? Sure, you’re married now, but who’s to say that’llst? I get it, you’re in love, but what if things change? Your mother handpicked the vi as a gift for me, and you practically gave it away for free! I don’t ept this!”


    Lillian, overhearing, rolled her eyes. “We paid full price for that ce back then. You don’t agree? Who cares? What right do you even have to object?”


    Elyse’s frustration spiked. “I’m Dani’s aunt! If she’s making reckless decisions, how can I not be concerned? Dani, you’re married now, but you still have to protect your assets! Small sums are one thing, but a vi that size? How could you just give it away?”


    “Are you even thinking about your future?” Elyse asked, her voice sharp.


    Dani let out a soft chuckle. “Did my mother think about her future when she gifted you that vi?”


    Elyse stiffened. “Let’s not dwell on the past. I’m just trying to remind you to be more careful with your finances.”


    Dani nodded. “Understood. Anything else?”


    Elyse was caught off guard by the question.


    Anything else? What else was left for her?


    The vi was gone. What else could she possibly ask for?
