Chapter 201 Debt Collection


    Maurice had lost all his patience.


    He wanted to push Darcy to the brink and finish off Quintessential Group once and for all.


    “Come on. We should check out the woman. She’s one gorgeous doll in Lilyrose. I’m sure she’ll be


    even more captivating in a state of despair.”


    Maurice strutted confidently out of the local bank with his men in tow.


    The conversation went on at Quintessential Group’s office building.


    “Riley, how much debt are we sitting at for each bank?”


    Sinking her back against her chair behind the desk, Darcy kneaded her aching temples and asked her


    assistant.


    Public opinion had shifted as evident in the onlinements, and Joy had paid a heavy price for her


    betrayal.


    However, Darcy was not happy at all.


    The issue was money.


    She needed money now more than ever.


    With a significant number of employees resigning, panic spread within the organization.


    The Quints were eager to jump ship, not caring what would happen to the family business, while work


    at the construction site operated as usual, thanks to the strenuous efforts of project manager, Andy,


    and


    his team.


    However, the 10 million dors she demanded back from Gold Tooth

    Without money, it was only a matter of time before the construction had to be halted.


    Besides, word got out on the bank’s loan cuts and Quintessential Group’s suppliers began pressing for


    payment.


    The group was facing its most serious crisis in years.


    Five years ago, the same tragedy struck, and the family business fell apart after Hector’s ident.


    “Ms. Quint, the debt we have with Lilyrose Bank is 50 million dors.


    “Industrial and Commercial Bank, 70 million dors.


    “South Bank, 90 million dors.


    “Lockhart Bank, 70 million dors.”


    The list went on as Riley opened a folder and reported the numbers.

    She had considered borrowing from other businesses.


    However, Quintessential Group’s credibility was out the window after what happened. No one would

    It could very well be the end of the Group.

    Kaze got up from the sofa and went to fetch a ss of water. He handed Darcy the drink.


    “You can do it, babe. Don’t lose hope. This will soon pass,” Kaze said


    while patting her shoulder.


    Darcy responded to his encouragement nonchntly.


    There was a knock on the door, and an employee walked in. “Ms.


    Quint, the managing directors of various banks in Lilyrose are here. They demand that you meet them


    in the lobby.”


    Darcy was shocked.


    Furrowing his brows, Kaze told the employee, “Tell them that they will have to get up here themselves if


    they want to meet my wife.”


    Darcy walked out of the office without a word.


    Left without a choice, Kaze went with her.


    They got to the lobby to find the entrance packed.


    The press was there too. Cameras shed when Darcy appeared.


    A few middle-aged individuals in suits walked out of the crowd.


    They were the managing directors of various banks in Lilyrose.


    “Ms. Quint, when are you going to pay back the 70 million dors you. owe to Industrial and


    Commercial Bank?” solemnly asked Yusoft, the managing director of Industrial and Commercial Bank.


    “Don’t forget the 90 million dors you owe South Bank.”


    “You owe Lockhart Bank 70 million.”


    The other managing directors questioned Darcy too.


    They personally came to Quintessential Group’s office building to

    As lights flickered furiously, Darcy turned pale in the spotlight.


    Darcy drew a deep breath and replied, “There is still time before the repayment due date, Mr. Lewis.


    You should know that the group has encountered some issues. Would you mind leaving for now? I will


    make sure we pay what is due before the time is up.”


    She said the same thing to the other bank managing directors.


    “Haha. You must be joking, Ms. Quint. We have ess to your corporate bank ounts. You probably


    can’t raise 30 million dors. How do you n to pay back hundreds of millions of dors?”


    Maurice, the president of Lilyrose Bank, swaggered his way through the parted crowd.
