Chapter 213 Yoli finally bagged second place, but before she could pop the champagne, the tables turned. Attlee was a cocktail of emotions — regret, heartache, anger, and frustration all in one.

He thought of Allbara Investment and the penny dropped.

“So, she’s been dining with Dylan and his gang, no wonder Mario is treating her like a queen” Attlee said.

It was probably because she was Maestro Melody, so she had got a bunch of big shots in her corner.

Attlee was kicking himself, “We should have called Yoli in. All we can do now is apologize to her sincerely, fingers crossed she'll forgive us.” Why? Olga protested loudly. “Yoli already apologized on stage.” Were they supposed to apologize in private too? Wasn't that just lowering themselves and letting Arabella walk all over them? if we could avoid a six million loss just by saying sorry, you'd be laughing your ass off!” Attlee sensed that this was more than meets the eye, “What I'm worried about is, we've hurt that kid too many times. She might not let us off the hook so easily.” She had already blocked their phone numbers.

“Didn't she used to fancy Yoli's necklace? We could give that to her.” Olga said.

Before Olga could finish, Attlee started laughing.

What are you laughing at?” Olga asked.

“Do you think a piano maestro would be short of cash for a necklace?” Attlee asked.

“Then why would she steal Yoli's necklace? And date a bunch of guys? Isn't it for the money?” Olga said.

Attlee pondered and said, “What Yoli said might not be true. She's dating all these guys probably because she’s a piano maestro and wants to connect with like-minded people.” After all, these high profile people loved to flock together.

Olga listened to him, and it suddenly made sense. But how could Yoli possibly lie? Attlee must be overthinking! Just then, Attlee’s phone rang again, it was Ben from the company.

“Mr. Murphy, we're screwed! The Collins family has announced that they won't allow any company to collaborate with the Murphy family, and whoever dares to help us will be challenging them!” Ben said, “Now a few more companies have terminated their contracts with us. If this keeps up, our company is going bankrupt!” Attlee was stunned and utterly confused, “We haven't offended the Collins family, did they mention why?” “No.” Ben said.

“Then go find out!!” Attlee was running around like a headless chicken. There was no conflict with the Collins family at the awards ceremony today. They didn’t even say hi! How could they have offended them? “Don't worry, I'm on it.” Ben said.

After hanging up, Attlee had a sinking feeling that he was done for.

He couldn't figure out why the Collins family would make such a statement, was it because of Arabella? Did the Collins family have a soft spot for Maestro Melody, and decided to step in when they saw her being treated unfairly? If that was the case, they had just pissed off two big shots.
