chapter 1829
Fredrick could not believe everything that had happened.
Reluctantly, he ran a few more tests, but every result showed just how Poulenc was far ahead of his products!
Fredrick finally admitted defeat. He sighed and went to find Waverly.
The moment she saw him, Waverly excitedly asked, "How did it go, Father?
Did Anthony agree?"
A moment later, she saw how defeated Fredrick looked. She arched her brows elegantly. "Father, what happened?"
Fredrick looked at her dully and sighed, saying, "Waverly, I tried my best. Poulenc is way more effective than our Kansas' products. Furthermore, I can see that Anthony and Charmine are truly in love. They’re married, so don't ruin their marriage. Waverly, listen to me: return with me to Kansas and stay with Max. I'll be more at ease this way.”
Waverly was furious, so much so that she was close to cursing, but thinking of something, she shut her eyes and took a deep breath.
When she reopened her eyes, she looked frail and helpless. She walked toward Fredrick and held his hand, softly saying, "Father, how can I give up so easily? Charmine ruined me so badly! She shredded my innocence and framed me to have slept with an assistant! She even ruined my reputation and made Julian dump me! She stole everything from me! Am I supposed to just be content with this? You said you reconciled with me to make me happy, and now you're on her side?" "Of course not." Fredrick
thought of how much he owed her and how hard it was to have found his daughter; he did not want to harm her.
He instantly explained, "Waverly, why would I side with Charmine? I only want you to be good. You’ll feel bad stealing a married man."
Waverly bit her lip, her eyes brimmed with tears, making her a pitiable sight. "Father, I really like Anthony," she whimpered hoarsely, "and only Anthony is good enough for me. If I can’t be with him. I'll never be happy. I'll suffer my whole life if you want me to go back to Kansas!"
Fredrick gazed at his daughter, his girl with eyes reddened with tears, and became anxious.
He quickly reached out to wipe off her tears and said, "Waverly, don't cry. Whatever you do, I’ll support you!"
Despite her reddening nose, Waverly's eyes faintly, oh-so faintly, gleamed with viciousness, but she then sniffed and feebly reasoned, "Father, I don’t want to go back. Can you stay here with me?"
Fredrick saw the tears that streamed down her face. How could he turn her down?
He instantly nodded, "Alright, I won't ask you to go back, and I won’t go back. I'll stay here with you."
Waverly's upset face brightened a little with a faint smile. She held onto Fredrick's arm and said, "Father, if you stay, I won't make you bored. Now that Poulenc is so famous and stole your sales, I won’t let my father get bullied by another country!"
Hearing this moved Fredrick.
Regardless, he helplessly conceded, "This brand is indeed good, and I had been defeated. I admit it."
He could only try to establish a better product to compete with them.
Waverly had a disappointed look. "I don't wish for my father to be a coward. If you're defeated, don't stay defeated."
Fredrick met her disappointed gaze and said, "Waverly, I won't get defeated so easily. For your sake, I won't let Charmine win this so easily!" NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
Waverly's disappointment only then faded. She smiled. "Father, let’s open our first branch in Burlington. You stay here and pass me your technology." Her eyes flared with determination. 'TH win this war for you!"
