Chapter 56
“Impossible!” Hazel retorted sharply, as if it was getting on her nerves. “She is just a country girl brought back from the countryside, and her biological parents are also lowly poor people in the slums. How could she manage that?”
Hazel said with a sneer, “The day you returned from the hospital, you kept clamoring about something was wrong and everything was wrong, saying that Sienna knows traditional medicine and has amazing medical skills.
“I think you were just exhausted from working shifts in the hospital, so you said such crazy things!
“How could I not know Sienna’s abilities? If she really was that capable, she would have been eager to show it off, wanting us to take another look at her!”
Lauren raised his head weakly. “But… but how could it be such a coincidence…”
“That can only mean that Sienna is indeed a scourge! A jinx who harms all of us!” Hazel interrupted him, grinding her teeth. “It was because we met that jinx Sienna that we ran into bad luck!”
The more Hazel thought about it, the angrier she became.
The Fairbank family encountered such bad luck after only meeting Sienna once.
Fortunately, she made a decisive decision to kick Sienna out of the Fairbank family when she said she would.
Otherwise, she had no idea how much more the Fairbank family would have suffered!
“It’s because you met that jinx that caused the Cooper family to cancel their cooperation with the Fairbank family!” Hazel glared at Lauren. “The Fairbank family received the Cooper Group’s initiative for cooperation, but before anything was finalized, you all boasted about it outside!
“Now that the Cooper family has canceled the cooperation, those opportunists are afraid of offending the Cooper family and are taking advantage of our misfortune!”
As she said this, she turned to look at Melvin. “Honey, our top priority now is to seek the Cooper family’s forgiveness. As long as the Cooper family is willing to give us back the contract, those opportunists will come crawling back!”
That was the only solution.
Melvin clenched his fist. “Right. We’ll go beg the Cooper family!”
As he said that, he kicked Lauren. “You! You will kneel and apologize to the Cooper family!”
The secretary trembled beside him. “Then, what about Instro Group and Hopes Investment?”
“As long as the Cooper family agrees, those two companies will come back begging me to renew their contracts!” Melvin’s face darkened. “We can’t lose the Cooper family’s contract.”

“Mom, Dad.” Holding her phone, Jessica read a message on her Twitter and quickly said, “I heard from one of my friends that the Cooper family had booked a private room at Moon Restaurant tonight, apparently to celebrate something…”
Melvin’s eyes lit up. “Really?”
Jessica said firmly, “It’s absolutely true!”
“Okay, we’ll go to Moon Restaurant to intercept them tonight!” He was wondering how to find out the whereabouts of the Cooper family, and if that didn’t work, he would have to go to the Cooper Group’s head office to see them.
Unexpectedly, Jessica happened to know the whereabouts of the Cooper family.
Hazel happily put her arms around Jessica. “Sweet Jessica, you really are our lucky star!”
She was unlike Sienna, who would only bring them bad luck!
Jessica smiled sweetly. “As long as I can help.”
Lauren rubbed his kicked butt, looked at the harmonious scene of the mother and daughter, and felt a little uncomfortable.
He thought, ‘If it were Sienna…
‘When I got kicked so badly, Sienna would definitely rush over to care for me and help me apply medicine.
‘Perhaps it’s because Jessica has just returned to the family, and she doesn’t know how to get along with so many family members.
‘As long as Jessica completely accepts this family, she will definitely do better than Sienna!’
“Honey, what are you doing standing there? Hurry up and get ready. Let’s go to Moon Restaurant to wait for the Cooper family!” Hazel pulled Jessica and was about to change her clothes.
But Melvin stood still and stared at his phone in a daze.
“Moon Restaurant is the most luxurious local restaurant in the entire Orlathis City.” Melvin frowned. “With the current situation of the Fairbank family…”
It was too extravagant to have a meal at Moon Restaurant.
Even the most ordinary seats would cost at least 100 thousand dollars for a meal.
There was a time when they didn’t have to worry about several hundred thousand dollars.
But due to successive withdrawals and terminations of cooperation, coupled with the bank’s debt collection, Fairbank Group’s liquid funds were tight.
They really couldn’t afford these several hundred thousand dollars.
Hazel didn’t expect that the family’s situation would be so difficult. “But this is our last chance.”
Melvin scratched his head, looking unkempt and completely without any dignity.
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something. “Where’s that card Sienna left?”
The day Sienna left, she left a card, cutting off all ties with them.
At the time, he gave the card and list to Eden, asking him to verify it.
Afterward, he threw this matter to the back of his mind.
“You really believe that country bumpkin has 200 thousand dollars?” Hazel narrowed her eyes and sneered.
“Where’s the card?” Melvin had no time to argue with her about Sienna. He would know if the card had 200 thousand dollars once he checked it!
What if she did? Wouldn’t that solve their immediate crisis?
Hazel pouted and turned to walk toward the room. “Eden had already checked it and gave me the list and the card. I just put them in the drawer.”
She didn’t believe that Sienna had spent only 200 thousand dollars during the four years when she stayed with the Fairbank family, nor did she believe that Sienna had 200 thousand dollars.
Melvin didn’t bother waiting for her to slowly go and get it, and immediately ran to the room.
He opened the drawer and, sure enough, saw a stack of paper and a bank card.
He took them all out and went through them casually.
The paper was a clearly printed list, verified by Eden, of all of Sienna’s expenses over the past four years.
