Vulcan Empire Chapter 17
By three in the afternoon, the Simmons family received news of the Rostin Advertising Agency securing a major contract with the Holt Group.Upon hearing this, Zachary promptly called for a meeting with the key individuals at the Simmons Group.The Simmons Group was a prominent family business, and all the top positions were held by family members."I'm sure you're all aware of Rosalie obtaining the Holt Group's business for the Southkey Plaza," Zachary stated from his position at the head of the table, addressing Melissa and the others."Yeah, we heard. It's probably because Mr. Holt is repaying a favor to that loser Dustin by giving it to Rosalie," the executives grumbled.Zachary's expression turned serious. "If Rosalie succeeds with this deal, she'll become incredibly influential, and she won't even give us a second thought at the Simmons Group."He paused, then continued, "Do any of you want that to happen?""No way," Melissa exclaimed, rising to her feet.Zachary nodded. "

Melissa grinned with delight. "Grandpa, this is nothing. My future father-in-law is a real powerhouse. The Walsh family is destined to become a ten-billion-dollar dynasty sooner or later."Zachary got straight to the point. "Melissa, give Lionel a call. Have Mr. Walsh inform Mr. Wilson to block Grand Horizon Bank from granting a loan to Rosalie."Melissa swiftly replied, "No problem at all."She took out her phone and dialed a number.After ending the call, Zachary, eager for an update, inquired, "Melissa, what did Lionel say? Is he going to contact Mr. Wilson for us?"Melissa grinned even wider. "He said yes. He assured me that he'll ensure Rosalie doesn't receive the loan. He even mentioned that if our Simmons family ever needs a loan from Grand Horizon Bank, it's a piece of cake."Zachary's heart raced with excitement. "Seriously? That's incredible!"The Simmons Group had been facing a roadblock as they could not secure a large enough loan from the banks, which hindered their

Melissa's conversation with Simon from Grand Horizon Bank was overheard by Zachary and everyone else, and it was perfectly clear.After the call ended, Zachary inquired, "Melissa, was that Grand Horizon Bank on the phone?"Melissa's voice quivered with excitement as she replied, "Yes, it was Mr. Lawson himself from Grand Horizon Bank. They've agreed to grant us the loan, and they said offering up to 1.5 billion dollars would be no issue at all.""What, 1.5 billion dollars!" Zachary was so astonished that he felt his blood pressure rise, causing his face to turn bright red.He had been overjoyed with the idea of 150 million dollars, but now, to his surprise, the possibility of obtaining a massive 1.5 billion dollars emerged.If that were true, it would not be long before the Simmons Group transformed into a colossal billion-dollar company.Melissa expressed her admiration, "Lionel is truly talented. He made a simple phone call and convinced Grand Horizon Bank to lend us the money.

Whispers spread throughout the crowd, catching Melissa's attention. She could not help but feel a sense of satisfaction as all eyes turned towards her. This was her moment to shine, and she intended to make the most of it."I'll show them what I'm capable of," she thought confidently. "After today, they won't dare underestimate me again."With a piercing glare at the bank receptionist, Melissa snapped, "Do you want to risk losing your job? Do you have any idea who I am? I'm the young miss of the Simmons family, Lionel Walsh's girlfriend, the big shot. I hold VIP status here at Grand Horizon Bank. Simon himself summoned me. Get him out here now, or we'll walk right out that door and you'll bear the consequences."The bank receptionist began to panic, stuttering, "Oh, it's Ms. Simmons. I'm terribly sorry for not recognizing you and failing to give you a proper welcome. Please forgive my mistake; I hope you won't hold it against me."Melissa felt a surge of satisfaction. "It's fine. I

Simon blinked in surprise. Lionel? Who was this Lionel person?He was supposed to treat Rosalie, the daughter of the Simmons family, as the most important guest at Grand Horizon Bank.Simon had not seen Rosalie yet, so he was not sure what she looked like. However, the woman in front of him was the same person he had spoken to on the phone, so he assumed she was the right individual.Simon walked up to her and shook her hand politely. "Ms. Simmons, I apologize for the delay. I was caught up with something and kept you waiting."Melissa smiled. "Mr. Lawson, it's no problem at all. I don't mind."After a brief pause, she added, "Mr. Lawson, you seem like a really nice guy. I'll make sure to speak highly of you to Lionel later. Maybe it will help you get a promotion soon."Lionel, again. Who was this person, and why had Simon not heard of him?Simon felt a swirl of confusion.Then, it dawned on him, and he could not help but feel a little excited. "Could Lionel be the mysterious b

Simon's expression grew cold as he asked, "Who are you?"In that instant, when he realized she was not Rosalie, all his respect disappeared.Melissa beamed with pride and said, "I'm Melissa, Lionel's girlfriend. You know, Lionel from the Walsh Group? They're worth a hundred million dollars!"Simon understood the situation clearly. Lionel was merely a small player in a not-so-prominent company.He knew he had gotten the wrong person."What's the last part of your phone number?" Simon asked.Melissa gave him a perplexed look and responded, "Eight nine zero. Why? Don't you remember my number? We just spoke on the phone recently."Simon groaned internally. He had dialed the wrong number. He intended to call Rosalie, whose number ended with eight six zero, but he had mistakenly pressed eight nine zero."Alright, Mr. Lawson, let's not waste any more time. We urgently need to sign that contract. The Simmons family wants to borrow 1.5 billion dollars. I'm supposed to meet Lionel at fiv

Before long, Zachary, Melissa, and the others were all escorted out of Grand Horizon Bank.Apart from feeling embarrassed, they were also furious at being treated this way.They were convinced that Simon had made a mistake."Melissa, what's happening? Why did Simon recognize Rosalie as the top VIP instead?" Zachary asked, clearly frustrated.Melissa responded with determination, "They must have made an error. I guess when my father-in-law informed Mr. Wilson, he accidentally mentioned me as Rosalie. Damn it! That woman ended up getting an advantage."Zachary nodded in agreement. "That's highly likely. You should call Lionel right away and have him come here to expose Rosalie, so she won't get the loan."Melissa felt even more anxious than Zachary, so she wasted no time and swiftly pulled out her phone to make the call.After escorting the members of the Simmons family out, Simon approached Rosalie with utmost respect and inquired, "Are you Miss Rosalie Simmons?"Rosalie nodded,

Simon was slightly taken aback. "Miss Rosalie, isn't 7.5 million dollars too low? You should consider going for 150 million dollars."Rosalie pondered for a moment and replied, "Alright, I'll settle for 30 million dollars then. That should be sufficient."Simon nodded in agreement. "Very well."He admired Rosalie's honesty. If it were someone like Melissa, they would have opted for the full 1.5 billion dollars instead of settling for less.Soon, Rosalie finished signing the agreement.Shortly after, she received a notification from the bank confirming the deposited funds.Rosalie was astonished.Was this the legendary instant transfer service?The VIP treatment truly lived up to its reputation.Just as Rosalie finished signing the agreement, Lionel, who had received a call from Melissa, finally arrived in his car.Melissa rushed over to greet him. "Lionel, you made it."Lionel replied, his expression darkening, "Has that bitch Rosalie left yet?"Melissa shook her head. "Not
