Chapter 448

    Oliver walked over and said in a low voice, “She won’t let us start the construction. She said. that the problem with our safety standards hasn’t been resolved yet. We have to give her an exnation.”


    Mnie raised her eyes to Vi, who happened to be looking back at her. There was a smile on Vi’s lips as if she was pleased with herself.


    Mnie thought for a moment and then looked at Terence, who was behind Vi. “You sought her out?”


    Terence’s face was ashen. “I just wanted to go to LeapCo and apologize to Mr. Scott. I was hoping he’d forgive me, then I wouldn’t have to leave Burning Star.”


    “Mnie, listen to yourself. It’s a fact that Eugene was injured here. You can’t just pretend that nothing happened, right?”


    Vi raised her voice at the end of her question. She lifted her chin and made a shoddy imitation of Eugene’s superior attitude.


    Vi was feeling a little smug right now. After all, if Mnie wanted to go through with the coboration now, she would have to bow down to her.


    A hint of mockery shed across Vi’s eyes. She recalled what Mason had said the other day. In her mind, Mnie was just pretending to be capable and aloof, but she was actually doing all sorts of nasty things behind his back.


    No wonder Eugene had dumped her.


    Vi pursed her lips and said, “When you were at LeapCo, you used to say that anyone who can’t even take responsibility for their mistakes has no right to work here.”


    She curled her lips and looked at Mnie gloatingly. “Do you remember, Mnie?”


    Mnie understood. Vi was not holding a grudge against Burning Star. She was targeting


    her.


    Her expression did not change. “We said we’d take responsibility for what happened to Mr. Scott. We’ll agree to any reasonablepensation.”


    “In that case, I think that canceling the cooperation is the most reasonable course of action. After all, you can’t even guarantee our safety. What will you mess up next?”


    Vi’s tone was full of disdain. Mnie and Xander looked at each other.


    Xander said calmly, “I can terminate the contract, but I don’t think you can make the final decision on this matter, can you? Maybe I should contact Mr. Scott now and we can discuss this problem together<b>.</b>”


    Vi’s expression shifted slightly. Eugene had no idea that she was here. She had swapped her role with Lee’s todaypletely on her own ord.


    Xander knew what was going on just by looking at her expression. He smirked, and his cold. ck eyes were filled with contempt. His voice was very calm as he said, “Although Burning Star is just a small studio, we won’t let an ipetent secretary singlehandedly terminate our contracts. I’m amazed at LeapCo’s business practices.”


    “You”


    Vi had not expected Xander to interrupt. She had only wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate Mnie.


    Mnie watched Vi storm away and looked thoughtfully at Xander. “I didn’t know you had such a sharp tongue.”


    “I was just telling the truth,” Xander said casually.


    After saying that, he looked at Terence, who was still standing there in a daze, and said. indifferently, “Are you unhappy with my decision?”


    Terence’s face was pale as a sheet. “No, I just thought it would be nice if I could apologize to Mr. Scott. I didn’t expect to meet her instead.”


    ‘But you still told her everything,” Oliver pointed out coldly. “You knew that Vi had a grudge against Mnie. Were you using this opportunity to get your revenge on us?”


    As soon as Oliver finished speaking, something flickered in Mnie’s eyes.


    Even Oliver knew that Vi was targeting her. Now that she had finally seized the opportunity, would she let it go so easily?


    Mnie looked up and said, “I’m going to go to LeapCo.”
