Chapter 09

Marian's face was calm, and the expression on her face did not even change. It was as if she had already expected all of this. She once again took out a folded piece of paper. The paper was for Sheryl. She stretched out her hand and she gasped when she saw the first line on the document it read, "Resolution of Parent-Child Relationship" This was unbelievably cruel. She had just handed over an official document that could actually separate herself from her own family. Marian stared at her with plain eyes. Compared to Sheryl's angry blush and gritted teeth that could be seen through her cheeks, Marian was much calmer. "The only reason why I'm still part of the family is because of a document that's lying around in a drawer somewhere. If you want to disown me then go ahead. I asked Attorney Zhang for this, he said you just have to sign it and we're done." After speaking to Sheryl, Marian slowly turned her gaze to her little brother. There was a terrifying cold light and a gloom in her eyes, but the smile on her face was gentle. The extreme contrast made Charlie so scared that his heart skipped a beat, and he swallowed his saliva nervously. He then recovered and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?" She then replied, "This house is under Grandpa's name, which means it belongs to me now. If you sign this I suggest you pack your bags and get out." Marian's tone was calm, it was as if she was stating facts rather than making threats. So many things were running through Charlie's mind, he couldn't handle it and he almost broke down crying. This cursed child was fulfilling her destiny. Sheryl could feel her internal organs exploding with anger, so she turned to her husband for help. "Christian, she can't do this, she's going to ruin everything." Christian curled his eyebrows and he looked at Marian suspiciously. He sensitively felt that all this was going too well for her. She had something prepared for every problem she was facing. He still thought she was just a dumb girl from the countryside, he thought someone was helping her do these things. The Su family house alone was worth a hundred million yuan. If they signed the second piece of papers they can kiss the inheritance goodbye. Christian looked at her bitterly. "Marian, the Su family is your grandfather's lifetime effort. You were sent away to the countryside, you don't know how important all of this is to us. The property of the Su family must be kept in the hands of the Su family. Besides, you are too young, you don't know how to manage that money. I cannot allow you to ruin everything your grandfather worked for. "If you're so obsessed with the money then let's hold a press conference and let society judge who's—." "No need!" Marian decisively interrupted Christian's words. This made Christian's eyes instantly bright, he thought Marian was afraid of the compromise. This teenage girl must not understand the word press conference. Marian then followed. "The Global Economic News has invited me for an interview and I can bring you alongside me." Global Economic News was the world's top program for everything business related. In the forty years of Christians' career he had not received a single invitation, but somehow this girl got a chance for an exclusive interview. Christian stared at her incredulously and he was trembling angrily. "You are going to ruin everything!" Marian smiled cynically, but there was a trace of domineering power in her eyes. "Don't worry, the Su Group will not fall in my hands. Let's make a bet, if I don't raise the price of our stock by thirty percent I'll sign the authorization agreement," she said in an overly confident tone. Christian had worked as general manager for ten years and he could only ensure that the stock price wouldn't fall, now the country girl was saying she could raise it by thirty percent. It was incessant nonsense, he could only imagine the pitiful look in her eyes when she begs him for help. Christian had a dark look on his face. He looked at Marian with a serious expression. "Fine then, we have a deal. You better not disappoint." Marian took out another folded piece of paper from her pocket and she threw it over to Christian. "I never disappoint," she said with a confident smile and a bright fire in her eyes. After that Marian left the dining room. Christian opened the paper, and an impressively written title was on the first line, "Letter of Commitment." She really wasn't fooling around.
