The First Heir
Chapter 780

Chapter 780

Martha’s wishful thinking was very meticulous. She would not force it if Wynn really did not like him, butthe more investments the better.

She refused to believe that someone would invest in Beacon for no good reason.

The other party had to be up to something.

It just so happened that Jacey returned at this time. She just came back from the company. Recently,the company’s business had declined and they were short of funds, so she was very busy.

As soon as she entered the door, Jacey made a face, obviously unhappy. She threw her handbag onthe sofa.

Everyone could tell that Jacey was in a bad mood.

At this time, Seth approached with a cheeky smile and said, “What’s the matter, Jacey? Are you stillworried about the company?”

As he said that, he served Jacey the tea that was prepared by Philip.

It was very well-played.

Jacey took a sip of the tea, then took out the gift she had prepared before handing it to Bradford Shesaid, “Grandpa, I wish you many happy returns of the day.”

Bradford happily accepted it and said, “Great, my granddaughter is very sensible.”

Seth looked at the exchange quietly, his thoughts unknown.

Jacey sat down and sighed. “The company is short of funds now. I really don’t know what to do.”

Hearing this, the expressions on the Green family’s faces collapsed.

This matter had troubled them for a long time.

Kirk’s wife made eyes at Kirk at this moment, and the latter hesitated for a while before saying, “Well,Wynn, I overheard your discussion just now. I know that you’re now the chairman of the board, andBeacon’s business is very good. You see, our foreign trading company is facing some cash flowproblems now, so do you think you can lend us ten million to turn things around?”

Ten million!

Instantly, the living room fell silent.

Irrelevant people pretended to be nonchalant, but Martha’s family looked like they were sitting on pinsand needles.

Wynn said apologetically, “Uncle, I’m sorry, but I don’t have so much money. Although I’m the chairmanof the company, I’m just a salaried employee myself.”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Kirk’s family changed completely.

The only reason they invited Martha’s family here today was just because of this.

Jacey stood up with a pained expression and turned to leave, saying, “Dad, what did I tell you? Theywon’t help us. Just think about the relationship between our two families. They’re not close to us, sowhy would they help us? It’s fine. I still have to go back to the company.”

This was their attitude of asking for help.

With a flushed face, Kirk looked at Wynn and continued, “Wynn, just take it as I’m begging you. I’veasked about your company. It has a lot of funds. Why don’t you see if you can move some funds

around and give the money to us to turn things around? Don’t worry, I’ll ask Jacey to return the moneyto you as soon as possible.”

“What? Are you telling my daughter to embezzle funds from the company? No way! I won’t allow it!”

Martha was not stupid. When she heard this, she immediately jumped up and protested.

Kirk quickly explained to Martha, “Sister-in-law, I’m begging you. Without this money, our family will gobankrupt!”

Kirk had really exhausted all alternatives before resorting to this.

Martha was adamant. “No way. There’s no room for discussion regarding this.”

Kirk turned to beg Wynn instead. Wynn also looked helpless and said, “Uncle, I really can’t help youwith this. It’s illegal to do that.”

Over there, Jacey stomped her foot, glared at Wynn fiercely, and scorned. “Hmph, don’t help if youdon’t want to. Why are you being so pretentious? Do you really think you’re so high and mighty justbecause you’re a chairman of a company? Who knows if you slept your way up? Dad, stop beggingher. I’ll take care of it myself.”

Jacey’s words were a bit misleading.

Seth also jumped in and sneered, “Of course, she slept her way up. What a wh*re! How could shebecome the chairman based on her capabilities? Pigs will fly!”

Suddenly!

An uncanny voice rang.

“What if I can help you?”

Philip stood up with a grim expression and said, “However, there’s one condition. Jacey and Seth willkneel and apologize to my wife for what they just said!”

No one expected Philip to stand out at this time. They exchanged glances with each other, looking atPhilip as if they were looking at an idiot.
