At that moment, the usually composed and rational Ella completely lost her calm and composure.
She picked up Eric's phone and answered Aurora's call. The melodious voice on the other end came through.
"Mr. Nelson… I beg you, for my sake, please give my cousin another chance! Kimi might be a liar sometimes, but he's a good kid… Mr. Nelson, I'm willing to forfeit a year's share of my earnings if it means you'll forgive him!"
Hearing the pleading tone, Ella let out a cold laugh. "Miss Wilson, your words are laughable. If he were such a 'good kid,' he wouldn't have conspired with his mother to bully my Elias!"
Aurora was stunned, not expecting Mrs. Nelson to answer the call. She panicked instantly. "Mrs. Nelson… Kimi and his mother know they were wrong. Please, just this once… I don't care about my profits or anything else!"
Ella's eyes flashed with icy resolve.
