Chapter 137: IF HE WAS ALIVE, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN ASHAMED

Why would you say that, Philip? Davis family has been a long family friend. Why would we not invite you in, when you are already at our doors.

We even bring the dogs in who come at our doors and feed them. You are but our family friends." Senior Sterling said.

And hearing that, the Davis’ family frowned a little. Though, it sounded right, for some reason it felt odd.

Anyway, that comment hit a point that Philip wanted and he said, "Do you really feel that, Senior Sterling? Because, it looks as if your family does not really think so. Because if they would, then they wouldn’t be cutting off all professional ties with us, that both the families had so painstakingly built through l these years, that too without providing any explanation at all!"

And saying so, he turned to look at Dove, who stood their unbothered, looking at her beautiful manicured nails, as if the whole conversation has nothing to do with her at all.

And looking at her like that, a nerve almost popped out of Philip’s forehead. Now, he was fully convinced that that this girl was deliberately ignoring them all this while! In short harrassing them!

Philip huffed and then turned towards Senior Sterling and said, "Senior Sterling, you too very well know about the recent deals that we had made. Those deals were discussed and made when you were still in the position. But look at now! Just before a week of finalisation and signing of the paperworks, Dove decided to withdraw from those!

It has the hardwork of both the companies! And it is not a matter of a few thousand dollars but a deal of billions of dollars! We at least deserve a proper explaination if such a thing is even happening. But not only did she not give us that. But she continued ignoring any of our contacts, thoroughly harrassing me and my son!"

And saying that, he turned to glance at his son Roan. And at that, Roan broke out of his trance staring at Dove, and looked at his father. Looking at Philip’s angry expression, he realised that he had zoned out. And he cleared his throat, and nodded his head.

That was right. He can’t get distracted. It was a very serious matter.

At that time, finally Dove raised her head, but she did not look at either Philip or Roan, but at Cara. Cara was standing at back of her husband looking at Senior Sterling, waiting for him to say something.

Then she on feeling a gaze towards her, she turned her head to look at Dove, and when their eyes met she instinctively averted her eyes.

And looking at that, Dove lightly chuckled.

That chuckle caught the other people’s attention too.

Philip turned towards Dove and just looking at her laughing made him shake in anger. He pointed towards her and yelled, "You? You still have the audacity to laugh?! Senior Sterling, we always thought that you raised her well with proper manners and a sense of responsibility! And that was why were eagerly wanted her to be the daughter in law of our family. But from what I am seeing, she is just a senseless brat! Even her father now would be ashamed of her if he was alive."

At this point, Philip did not even hold up from going personal. And at this point, everyone there frowned hearing that.

Dove raised an eyebrow. She had never really been in a argument with Philip in person. And normally, he looked to be a composed person. Just like that time when the engagement was called off. It was Casa who was doing all the shouting, while Philip did not say much expect for the last part.

But it seems now that, Philip was more involved with money. Where they was money involved he was more active. Makes sense.

Freya who looked at them argueing at first in confusion, and then slowly it got clear what it was all about.

She too knew about the couple of billion dollars deals that was to be signed by both the companys. Noah had told her about it casually in a conversation happening between them. He did not say anything in great detail, but Freya border line knew that it was something big.

And now hearing herself that Dove had cancelled and withdrawn Sterling Corporation from the deal, it was indeed a big shock to her too.

But Freya did not know anything about it. She turned to look at her son, who despite having a small frown on his forehead stayed quite and calm.

Even Senior Sterling, who should apparently have a reaction, stayed calm. So, Freya too did not say anything regarding the matter. But the Davis’ family were sure aggrieved.

And now that, the Mr Davis touched the topic of her deceased husband, that Freya too did not appreciate at all, she still tried to mellow the atmosphere a little. "Mr Davis, Mrs Davis, Roan! Please calm down. Let’s sit down and talk about it. I am sure it is some kind of misunderstanding that can be resolved and talked out calmly. Please come in and sit down."

Because, whatever it is the Davis’ were a family friend and guest. No matter if they had just bragged in unannounced. Still, she Mistress of the house, she did not want the situation to blow out of proportion.

Senior Sterling too agreed, and nodded her head. And before he could say anything, Dove beat to him, and surprisingly after observing all of them, and frustrating them to no ends, she said, "Yes, Aunty Freya is right. Now that we all are here, I guess we can talk about it. Let’s get seated together and address the topic." She gave them a quick smile, before turning around and stroding to the living room.

And Dante too followed her closely behind.

Philip and Roan looked at each other in slight surprise, their anger still overpowered, before they huffed. And then everyone walked to the living room.

Cara was the last one to start walking. She had kept her head casted downwards, in her own dilemma.
