Chapter 1263 A Sweet Trap Unveiled

“The Verkade family is truly sincere,” the crowd immediately exclaimed.

Everyone present knew that a $450 million order was not a small sum. Faced with such temptation,it seemed that Mackenzie might replace it hard to resist.

Even Beatrix felt nervous, silently praying that Mackenzie could withstand the temptation.

On the other hand, Lara had a beaming smile and was full of anticipation. In this situation, as longas she isn’t foolish, she will know which of Gautier and Emmanuel is more suitable for her and theQuillen family.

As a businesswoman, she will not make the wrong decision. She will thank me in the future.

However, Mackenzie immediately spoke up and politely declined. “Mr. Verkade, we appreciate yoursincerity. Our Quillen family will develop the market by ourselves.”

What?

As soon as this statement was made, there was a collective gasp in the audience.

Lara’s expression froze instantly. Is she crazy? Rejecting money offered by the Verkade family forfree?

Seeing Lara’s expression, the relieved Beatrix secretly took a snapshot of Lara, replaceing it quiteamusing. After living with Mackenzie for many years, she still doesn’t understand her personality. Isshe so easily tempted and manipulated?

“Mackenzie, I hope you won’t misinterpret our intentions.”

Gautier approached Mackenzie and said earnestly, “We share a common goal. The Verkade familygenuinely hopes for mutual trust with the Quillen family. If you still doubt our sincerity, I can publiclypromise that a member of the Quillen family will hold the chairman position in the future. You will bethe CEO of the group. All members of the Verkade family and I will support you. If you don’t needus, we can leave the company and pursue other interests, relinquishing control completely.”

Wow!

Everyone at the scene was shocked by his words.

Isn’t this equivalent to handing over the Verkade family’s business to Mackenzie?

Is this real?

“The power of love is truly remarkable.”

“The domineering CEO of Yeringham has become a fool in love.”

Many people sighed. Even soap operas wouldn’t dare to depict such a plot, yet it happened in reallife.

Lara was moved to tears. Even he expresses his sincerity like this. Is she really that heartless?

“Agree to him!”

“Agree to him!”

“Be together!”

“Be together!”

Led by Lara, the crowd unexpectedly erupted into cheers, turning the press conference into a sceneresembling a proposal.

William’s eyes flashed with excitement. Under these circumstances, Mackenzie absolutely couldn’trefuse.

However, Mackenzie shook her head firmly without any expression. “No, this is unfair to theVerkade family. I cannot accept it. Let’s discuss cooperation another time.”

In this situation, I can only resort to delaying tactics.

As expected by William, she was being held hostage by public opinion and morality. It is impossiblefor her to refuse.

Even if she is cold-hearted, she can’t go against the public opinion of the entire city.

She isn’t like Roselynn, who could completely disregard what others said. She understands theimportance of personal reputation and family honor for a businessperson.

She is well aware that the Verkade family’s proposal is a trap. She isn’t as naive as Lara, who hasno business acumen. Does she truly believe that becoming the chairman and CEO means the jointgroup will belong to her?

Even if Gautier agreed, would his parents and the other members of the Verkade family agree?Would the shareholders and other executives of the Verkade Group agree?

No.

So, in the end, what Gautier says is just an empty promise.

If she agrees to cooperate now and even signs an agreement, it would be difficult to retract later.

This is an enticing trap.

No, this is a premeditated kidnapping.

This kind of abduction cannot be reported to the police because it is legal.

However, Mackenzie was a woman of determination and courage. She would still refuse, even ifshe had to go against everyone in the room and even the entire city. “Mr. Verkade, I appreciate yourintentions, but-”

Before she could finish her sentence, Lara couldn’t bear it any longer and exclaimed, “Mackenzie,let’s not discuss Emmanuel’s abilities. He even frequents nightclubs behind your back. He’s beingdisloyal to you. Why are you still with him? Are you foolish?”
