Chapter 1251
Lina heard everything they said, and it hit her hard. Their stares felt like knives cutting into her face. Instinctively, she glanced at Desiree, who appeared quite intoxicated, lazily leaning on the couch. Desiree was looking back at her, and they locked eyes.

Lina saw a clear, gloating expression in Desiree’s gaze. Now, she understood the intent behind Desiree’s actions.

Desiree had defamed her and suppressed her, using Nicholas’ unsavory past as a gangster to keep influential people away from Lina. This way, she couldn’t interact with those important connections anymore. If things went according to Desiree’s plan, Lina would be humiliated and angry.

Lina remained composed, trying not to lose her temper, but the others were crossing the line, especially under the influence of alcohol.

Desiree also joined in, seemingly drunk, but Lina suspected she was fully aware of her actions.

Lina chuckled, looking at Desiree. “It seems we won’t be able to proceed with our collaboration. Nevertheless, thanks for sharing the business list.”
