Bennett began, "Here's the deal, your grandpa wants to expand our business in B City. You know how things are in B City, the Crawley family holds the strings. We're currently discussing a project with them, and suddenly they call, saying you've upset Ms. Antonia, and your grandpa has to clear this up."
Estelle was puzzled, "How does the Crawley family know about my connection with the Macclain family?"
Bennett's face showed a hint of discomfort, "Someone mentioned you during our initial negotiations with the Crawleys."
Bennett was vague, but Estelle understood. Her reputation as KING had been used as a bragging tool and a networking strategy by the Macclain family!
"Your grandpa called me again, asking me to persuade you not to cross Antonia, You just need to apologize to her and design a dress for her."
Dismissing it casually, Bennett said, "It's just a dress, why upset Ms. Antonia over this?"
Estelle's exquisite features were icy cool. She smiled faintly, "I thought you guys would back me up!"
Bennett laughed awkwardly, "Estelle, your grandpa said that if you could design a dress for Antonia and mend your relationship with her, once we secure the B City project, he'll grant you whatever you want."
He continued, "Even though you're a famous designer, you'll need connections to progress further. Crossing the Crawley family won't do you any good, right? And, I know you're trying to mend your ties with the Lamont family. Jonathan seems to like you. There's still a chance. But if you cross the Crawleys and they blacklist you, how would the Lamonts see you?"
Bennett tried to coax her from all angles, making it seem like apologizing to Antonia was in her best interest.
Estelle sneered, "So the Crawleys are so powerful that they can blacklist me?"
