Ye Huanhuan stared coldly at Herbert Smith, a strong sense of disgust welling up inside her.
What she wanted was not just monetary compensation, but for this despicable man to be punished by law and sent to prison.
However, faced with the stalemate, Herbert Smith began to appear somewhat anxious.
He originally thought that he could quell the storm by paying enough money, but Ye Huanhuan clearly did not intend to compromise easily.
At this moment, Tang Yi seemed to understand Ye Huanhuan's true thoughts. He leaned close to her ear and whispered:
"Take it. We don't have enough evidence right now, and it won't be easy to send him to prison."
Ye Huanhuan felt a slight tingling sensation in her ears. She clenched her teeth, her heart filled with contradictions and struggles.
In the end, she made the difficult decision to accept the billion-dollar check that she found deeply humiliating.
"Mr. Herbert, before the matter has been fully investigated, our Ye Group has decided to terminate all cooperation with your Smith family."
These words were like a heavy hammer blow, shattering the tense atmosphere at the scene.
This also demonstrates Ye Haiming's stance: he chooses to believe Ye Huanhuan and is willing to give up business cooperation opportunities with the Smith family in order to protect her rights.
Ye Huanhuan was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected Ye Hairing to go to such lengths for her sake.
"Ye! What are you saying?"
Herbert Smith was clearly taken aback. "You're going to terminate our cooperation over such a trivial matter?"
“Mr. Herbert, this is no small matter; it concerns my daughter’s reputation!”
Ye Haiming looked at Ye Huanhuan, his eyes filled with guilt, and said in a low voice, "My wife has been searching for my biological daughter for twenty years, and now she has finally brought her home. Today's family reunion banquet was originally intended to let everyone know that my daughter has returned to my side."
At this point, his gaze shifted back to Herbert Smith, his eyes sharpening:
"However, you want to destroy all of this. I don't know how you sneaked into this dressing room, but I'm not a fool. I can still tell the difference between truth and falsehood."
"Ye, I... I can add another 5 billion in investment!" Herbert Smith panicked; he hadn't expected Ye Haiming to be so decisive.
"No need," Ye Haiming waved his hand. "My Ye family doesn't lack this little bit of money."
Upon hearing this, Herbert Smith's face instantly turned extremely gloomy.
Although he was wary of Tang Yi, it didn't mean he would take Ye Haiming seriously.
Ye Haiming only achieved some success in S City. His Smith family could easily destroy the Ye Group with a flick of their finger.
"Ye! You will definitely regret your choice today!" He gritted his teeth and said this before slamming the door and leaving.
Ye Ting was utterly shocked: "Daddy, you actually gave up the cooperation with the Smith family for Ye Huanhuan? Don't you plan to expand into the Y country market?"
Ye Haiming gave Tang Yi a meaningful look, then turned to Ye Ting and said:
"Shut up! This is the decision, and it's none of your business! After today's banquet, you'd better pack your things and get out of here in W City immediately!"
"Daddy..." Ye Ting's face was filled with reluctance and unwillingness.
Ignoring Ye Ting's protests, Ye Haiming turned his gaze directly to Ye Ru, who was trembling in the corner, and called out, "Ye Ru, come here!"
When Ye Ru's name was called, she couldn't help but tremble. She hesitated for a moment, but finally walked up to Ye Haiming at a very slow pace.
Ye Haiming: "Go arrange for someone to redo Huanhuan's makeup and dress her up!"
Ye Ru felt relieved. She thought Ye Haiming would punish her. She nodded and replied, "Okay, Daddy, I'll go find someone to rearrange things right now."
After saying that, she left the dressing room.
Before leaving, she took a deep look at Tang Yi, who was embracing Ye Huanhuan.
If it weren't for this despicable man interfering, her plan would have gone smoothly!
She had meticulously planned everything, intending for Ye Haiming and Tang Yi to expose Ye Huanhuan's affair with Herbert Smith on the spot, thus ruining Ye Huanhuan's reputation and preventing her from attending the subsequent banquet activities.
Then, Herbert Smith would come forward and identify Ye Huanhuan, saying that she had seduced him.
Whether Ye Haiming believed it or not, by then it was a done deal. For the sake of the crucial cooperation project with Country Y, even if Ye Huanhuan was indeed framed, Ye Haiming had no choice but to use Ye Huanhuan to restrain Smith Herbott and thus continue the cooperation.
However, unexpectedly, Ye Huanhuan vomited up all the cookies she had eaten, causing the drug to take effect by less than one-fifth.
What shocked her even more was that Tang Yi, the heir to the Tang Group, was actually willing to put on such a show in order to cooperate with Ye Huanhuan.
This completely disrupted her plans and caused her to fail at the last minute. It was utterly despicable!
However, if one plan fails, another will follow. Ye Huanhuan, just you wait!
Thinking of this, Ye Ru couldn't help but let a sinister and malicious smile creep onto her lips.
After Ye Ru left, Ye Haiming immediately instructed Ye Ting, "Go to the banquet hall and greet the other guests!"
Ye Ting had no choice but to leave the dressing room reluctantly.
