Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 623

According to Bianca's original plan, they were supposed to return to Rivercrest City on the third day. After all, if PerseTech's IPO had been successful, they would have had to go to the exchange the next day to pay the relevant fees.

But no one had anticipated that the IPO would fail so completely.

What was most unbearable for Bianca was that Noreen had managed to take two companies public at once.

The thought made her want to explode. She simply couldn't accept this outcome.

On the way from the exchange back to the hotel, everyone was silent.

Their expressions were grim.

Only Bianca's phone rang incessantly.

She didn't dare to answer.

She knew exactly who was calling and why.

Finally, in frustration, she turned it off.

At the hotel, Seth announced he had made dinner reservations and that they would leave for the restaurant at six.

Bianca responded with a listless nod and went to her room.

Once inside, she turned her phone back on. Calls and messages flooded in instantly.

She ignored the calls but glanced at the messages.

They were all demanding money.

She had signed more than ten leveraged betting agreements, pulling nearly fifty-to-one leverage.

She had planned to make a fortune, but instead, it had all backfired.

Now she was facing a mountain of debt…

He then specifically tagged Seth.

"Seth, how did you let talent like that slip through your fingers? What a waste! You must be kicking yourself right now, aren't you?"

Before Seth could reply, Healy continued.

"Then again, you had this incredible person and you kept her as your assistant. If I were her, I would've been gone long ago! There's no way I would've stayed at Aurelion Group for seven years!"

"In the end, it just shows how devoted Noreen was. You never promised her anything, yet she worked tirelessly for you for seven years. Even when she left, she did it with class. She built her own success without using any of your connections or resources. It was all her."

"A woman like that is hard to find these days."

"So, Seth, if I were to pursue her, you wouldn't have a problem with that, would you?"

Bianca saw right through him. All that buildup was just for that last sentence.

Furious and frustrated, she finally hurled her phone to the floor, the impact granting her a fleeting moment of silence.
