Chapter 73

Chapter 73 Giselle let out a cold laugh . She was curious to see what Arme would want to discuss . " Let's go outside , " she said . She didn't want to risk arguing in front of her employees or customers , so she stepped out of the clinic and walked to a spot away from the storefront . " Talk " just stated coldly at her . Anne , for once , was unusually composed . She didn't yell accurse . She ju " Giselle , there's no deep hatred between us . My mom messed with your shop once .

Then you ruined my engagement . Aren't we already even ? Giselle almost laughed out loud . She crossed her amma and stared straight at her half - sister . " Anne , do you even believe the crap you're saying ? Are you that stupid , or do you think ! am ? " " What I mean is - I don't want to keep fighting like this . We each have our own lives . There's no need to keep crossing lines . As for Donovan , you know full well no matter how you chase him , he will never marry you .

The Kane family would never allow it . " So ? " Giselle taunted . " If you walk away from him for good , my mom will offer you a substantial financial settlement . " Oh yeah ? " She kept up the cold smirk " Let's hear it . What exactly do you consider substantial ? " " 500 million dollars , " Anne said flatly , her eyes locked on Giselle's , clearly not joking . " And on top of that , she's willing to give you 2 % of the company's shares .

With that kind of money , you can live the same life I do . Even if you do nothing for the rest of your life , you'll never have to worry about anything . " " Wow . That much ? I'm so tempted , " Giselle sald with a sneer . " Will you agree or not ? Anne snapped , unable to stand her mocking tone . " What do you think ? " Giselle shot back Before Anpe could respond , Giselle stepped in closer , locking eyes with her . " Then let me make it crystal clear . No , I won't agree .

Unless Renee transfers the entire company to me . Once I've taken back everything that belonged to my grandparents and my mother , I'll gladly hand the man over to you on a silver platter . " " In your dreams ! " Anne exploded , enraged by the audacity of that demand . " Giselle , I'm seriously trying to negotiate here . Don't pull your lowlife crap ! What I'm offering is already extremely generous . If you keep seducing Donovan , do you really think the Kane family won't shut you down ?

" " Save it , " Giselle said with a look of pure disdain . " You've got such a powerful mother and such tight connections with the Kanes . Surely you're not that insecure , Let's just compete fair and square . You go be the elegant heiress . I'll be the shameless slut . Let's see which style he prefers . " Anne trembled with rage , her whole body shaking . She felt like she was being crushed under Giselle's presence - like she was punching a pillow , all fury with nowhere to land .

diselle had no more time to waste . But before walking away , she leaned in close and whispered mockingly in her ear , " Of course , you could always try being as desperate as I am . Maybe if you throw yourself at him dight under the Kane family's nose , you'll win him over . " " You filthy bitch ! " Anne instantly snapped . Those words continued her worst fear - something had happened between Giselle and Donovan in the bathroom . She shrieked , her voice raw with fury .
