As expected.
Half an hour had not passed.
But the news about Laurel disrespecting elders has already become a trending topic.
There were a total of two trending topics today related to the Lambert family.
First, the Chairman of the Lambert Group was taken away by the prosecuting authorities for
investigation on suspicion of committing a crime.
The second is that Laurel publicly embarrassed her NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
grandmother, causing her grandmother to faint on the spot. Now, Laurel’s grandmother’s life hangs in
the balance.
Laurel sat in the office.
Laurel watched the news quietly.
Laurel thought, “There were really a lot of things happening recently.”
Afterwards, Laurel answered several phone calls.
One was a phone call from Laurel’s dad. Laurel’s dad asked Laurel what exactly happened and if she
needed him to come to the company to handle it.
Laurel, of course, refused.

If Laurel’s father were to handle these matters, things would become even more complicated.
Maybe the top management of the company was actually bribed by Kermit, forcing Laurel’s father to
resign. If Laurel’s father doesn’t agree, it will be another trending topic.
The second call was made by Shelley. Shelley asked Laurel what had happened.
Shelley asked, “Wasn’t everything going smoothly in the company? How did such a big thing happen?”
Then, Shelley angrily scolded Wendy over the phone.
Laurel felt better in her heart.
Now.
Laurel’s phone rang again.
Laurel glanced at the phone screen.
It was Bruno.
Laurel wondered, “Was he trying to mock me?”
But Laurel thought for a moment and decided to answer the phone.
“I thought you wouldn’t answer my call anymore,” Bruno’s voice was clearly tinged with sarcasm.
“Then I hung up the phone,” Laurel stated.
“Laurel!” Bruno hurriedly stopped Laurel.

Laurel chuckled.
“I thought you wanted me to help you.”

“Do you think you could help me?” Laurel asked in response.
“Think about your dad’s situation. How could it have happened so suddenly?” Bruno deliberately
reminded.
“So you’re saying that was you who did it?” Laurel said coldly.
“I didn’t do anything illegal,” Bruno explained hastily.
Bruno had been deceived by Laurel many times in the past. This time, he was clearly more cautious
than before.
Laurel thought, “Bruno, you have clearly committed many illegal acts.”
Laurel didn’t want to argue about these things with Bruno
now.
Laurel also did not want to waste time talking to Bruno.
Laurel answered Bruno’s call purely to get some information from him.
“However, I can find out what exactly happened to your dad. Laurel, you’re so smart. You should know
what I’m talking about,” Bruno said cryptically.
Laurel knew exactly what Bruno was saying.
Bruno just wanted Laurel to ask him for help in solving her father’s problem.
Laurel could tell from Bruno’s tone that he knew all the ins

and outs of this matter.
Bruno probably not only knew about this matter.

Bruno was probably also one of the main planners behind this
matter.
“What did you want me to do?” Laurel asked.
Laurel hardly hesitated.
Bruno laughed out loud, probably feeling a bit proud.
“You compromised so quickly, which makes me feel a bit. strange. Laurel, aren’t you supposed to have
a strong sense of self-esteem? What happened? Why aren’t you opposing me at this time?” Bruno said
sarcastically. “By the way, I remember you have a husband. Why isn’t he helping you? Now you realize
he’s useless, right?”
“What do you want me to do, after all?” Laurel was running out of patience.
“I divorced Hayden. Then, I got back together with me,” Bruno said bluntly.
Laurel chuckled lightly.
Laurel really found Bruno’s words funny.
“Are you saying that if I divorce Hayden, you will help me with my father’s affairs?” Laurel asked.
“Yes,” Bruno replied.
“How can I guarantee that you can really keep my dad safe? What if you’re deceiving me?”

“Do you think you still have any qualifications to negotiate terms with me? Your father is clearly going to
suffer this time. According to Lexingcester’s law, he will definitely be sentenced to ten years in prison.
After your father goes to jail, do you think you can handle the entire Lambert Group on your own? Once
the Lambert Group is taken away by Kermit, you won’t have any bright future!” Bruno said confidently.
“Your only choice is to trust me unconditionally.”
“Bruno, you will never be able to change your arrogant personality in your entire life,” Laurel mocked.
Bruno’s face changed immediately.
At this moment, Bruno could clearly feel that Laurel was not at all threatened or tempted by him.
“We won’t consider whether I have the ability to save my father or not. Assuming I really can’t save my
father, at the same time, I choose to ask for your help. So, the result of your help would be that my
father will still be imprisoned, and I will be painfully married to you,” Laurel said. “Bruno, you’re
dreaming.”
Bruno tightly held the phone.
Indeed.
Bruno had no intention of helping Laurel. Bruno wished for Laurel’s family to be destroyed immediately.
Then, Bruno could find a way to buy the Lambert Group’s stocks. How could Bruno possibly go and
help Laurel?
Bruno just wanted to take this opportunity to make Laurel lose everything.
Chapter 251 Killing Two Birds With One Stone
Bruno wanted Laurel to choose to divorce Hayden.
After that, no one would really help Laurel anymore.

In this way, Bruno could torture Laurel without any hesitation.
However, Laurel was indeed no longer the same Laurel as before.
No matter what Bruno said, Laurel would not believe him.
Bruno thought that at this moment Laurel would be panicking and not knowing what to do. However,
Laurel was actually not at all flustered.
Bruno couldn’t help but wonder, “What caused Laurel to change so much?”
“Laurel, I gave you the opportunity. However, you didn’t know how to appreciate it. In that case, don’t
blame me for being too cruel to you in the future!” Bruno threatened.”Let me give you a reminder.
Hasn’t Hayden become a city official? The background of a city official in Lexingcester must be clean. If
your dad gets into trouble, Hayden’s background won’t be clean anymore. What do you think he will do
then? Do you think he will give up his promising future for you?”
“That was none of your business.”
“Don’t deceive yourself. Men are selfish. In the face of career advancement, love holds no value in a
man’s eyes. By leaving Hayden on your own accord, you are also giving yourself a chance and
preserving your self-respect. Otherwise, in the future…”
Laurel hung up the phone directly.

Laurel was not angry.
Laurel felt that talking to Bruno was a waste of time.

Bruno couldn’t provide any help to Laurel. Bruno didn’t even have any value to be used by Laurel.
Laurel put down her phone.
At this moment, Laurel’s face did indeed look a bit gloomy.
If this accident was planned by Bruno, Laurel had to admit that it was the smartest thing Bruno had
ever done.
This period was a crucial time for Laurel’s development at the Lambert Group. If Laurel missed this
opportunity, there would be no chance in the future. At the same time, the promise. Laurel made in
front of senior management may not be fulfilled.
Hayden had just become a city official. If something happened to Laurel’s family, it would undoubtedly
have an impact on Hayden.
Bruno really hit two birds with one stone this time.
