Chapter 511: Chapter 511: Muli’s Girlfriend (1)_1

"Brown Lya, if you want to see whether the Xiao Family is more important to me or Xiao Xin is more important, I will let you know right now." With that, Xiao Muli picked up the phone, dialed his assistant in front of everyone, and ordered loudly enough for all to hear to cancel all collaborative projects with the Brown Family.

The moment Xiao Muli finished speaking, Brown Kress screamed, "Family Head Xiao, no, please! It’s all my daughter’s fault. I will definitely discipline her when we get back. Please don’t let our companies suffer so much because of my daughter’s misbehavior."

"Haha, President Brown, rest assured, the Xiao’s losses are nothing to Muli. Plus, if anyone else in the Xiao Family frets over these losses, she would not mind helping to make up for them." Although Situ Xin usually acted like a queen, any woman, no matter her demeanor, would be overjoyed to be so protected by the man she loved, cherished by him even more than his career.

Situ Xin’s words caught Brown Kress’s attention. Although surprised by her declaration, he also harbored a suspicion that he should have guessed earlier.

"Dady, don’t worry. I think Xiao Muli is just talking. He wouldn’t dare really terminate the cooperation with our Brown Family. If he unilaterally terminates the partnership, Xiao’s would have to pay us a large sum in breach of contract fees," thought Brown Lya, still holding onto a glimmer of hope. Even now, she refused to acknowledge the significance of Situ Xin’s status, clinging to the belief that Situ Xin was an insignificant nobody.

"Shut up. I’ll deal with you when we’re back home," said Brown Kress. Lya’s words did not bring him the slightest joy; instead, they only fueled his irritation. If, as his daughter suggested, a contract had been signed between the two families, then Xiao Muli would have to pay a hefty breach of contract fee to dissolve it. Even if Xiao Muli stopped cooperating with the Brown Group, Xiao’s penalty fee would be enough to offset the Brown Family’s losses.

However, the problem was that Xiao Muli’s visit to BL coincided with the end of the current partnership period between the Brown Group and Xiao’s. The main purpose of Brown Kress meeting with Xiao Muli was to renew their contract.

At the time, negotiations between the two sides went well, and they were about to sign a new one-year contract in the next couple of days. But now, without the new contract signed, the question of a breach did not arise.

Brown Kress grew increasingly agitated as he thought more about it, looking at his daughter, who had a sullen face that looked like she was about to cry. If it weren’t for the composure he had cultivated since childhood, Brown Kress would have disregarded the setting and disciplined his daughter on the spot.

Brown Kress held back from scolding his daughter in public, but his expression was stern as he glared at her several times.

"Family Head Xiao," said Brown Kress, now desperate, changing the way he addressed Xiao Muli.

However, Xiao Muli gave Brown Kress no further chance to argue. Today, he had finally taken his girlfriend Situ Xin out to foster their relationship, but such an incident had occurred. If it had not been for Situ Xin holding him back that evening, he would have settled the matter with the father and daughter there and then.

Ignoring Brown Kress, Xiao Muli took Situ Xin by the hand and headed inside the villa. The people invited by Brown Kress to the party, excluding those who had just witnessed the incident while entering, were waiting inside the villa, growing restless waiting for the party’s host and guest of honor, so they couldn’t help but come out to see what was going on.

And so, many had witnessed what had just happened, yet not one person stepped forward to plead on behalf of Brown Kress’s family or to smooth things over. Everyone seemed to be watching the drama unfold with keen interest, whether it be on Situ Xin’s side or Brown Kress’s was yet to be seen.

"Family Head Xiao, hello, I’m Brown from the Brown Family, Blair Brown. I am the Vice President of the Brown Group. I sincerely apologize for my niece’s behavior earlier and on behalf of her, I apologize to you and to the beautiful lady beside you." Xiao Muli, still holding Situ Xin’s hand, had not reached the villa’s entrance when he was stopped by a middle-aged man who bore some resemblance to Brown Kress and who identified himself as Blair Brown. The man proceeded to apologize to Situ Xin on behalf of Brown Kress and Brown Lya.

Situ Xin, observing the humbly bowing Blair Brown in front of her, narrowed her eyes, a hint of amusement flashing through them. She wondered if this was the so-called family power struggle of foreign aristocracies.

Clearly, there was animosity between Blair Brown and Brown Kress.

Just as Situ Xin formed this thought, a frustrated voice came from behind her, "Blair Brown, what do you mean by this? Are you so eager to replace me?"

"Dear brother, that’s not fair of you to say. I’m just trying to recoup the losses for the Brown Group. I certainly don’t want our Brown Group to suffer financially because of certain individuals," replied Blair Brown calmly and patiently in the face of Brown Kress’s accusation.

"Mr. Blair Brown, this issue doesn’t concern you. Therefore, we cannot accept your apology. Also, please step aside; we need to go inside and rest for a while," said Xiao Muli to Blair Brown, not hiding his displeasure. He was thoroughly sick of dealing with the Brown Family.

Had Xiao Muli not previously received word that someone he had been wanting to meet would be at the party, he would have already departed with Situ Xin.
