Chapter 379 Ice Queen
Seeing Kate’s persistent behavior, Caspian felt somewhat helpless.
He knew her too well. If she didn’t achieve her goal, she would definitely continue making a
scene.
If that happened, it wouldn’t be peaceful for him and Willow,
They both didn’t want to see her around. Hence, they needed to figure out a way to get her to leave.
“I can give you the Massey family’s assets,” Caspian said.
“Caspian, you truly are my good son–in–law!” Kate exclaimed excitedly.
Hearing this, Caspian was speechless. Kate’s attitude had made a complete turn.

“However, I can only give you the original assets of the Massey family. Any assets acquired through illegal means must be confiscated! Let me think how much of the assets are clean… He chuckled.
As he spoke, he began to calculate. But in reality, he already had an answer.
Hearing this, Kate was momentarily stunned. Getting some assets was still pretty good for her.
“How much of the assets can I actually get? Hurry up and tell me!” she asked eagerly.
“This much!” Caspian smiled and held up a finger.
“Ten billion?” Kate asked excitedly.
Ten billion wasn’t a small amount!
Caspian shook his head.
“How much is it, then?” Her face suddenly turned dark.
If it were any less, she wouldn’t accept it. With her spending habits, a few billion wouldn’t be enough.
“Only a billion,” Caspian said with a smile.
“That’s so little!” Kate’s face had darkened completely at this point.
“What? That’s too little for you? In that case, forget it,” Caspian said as he turned to leave.
“It’s not little at all!” Kate hurriedly said.
Even though it was just a billion, it was still money!

One billion was better than nothing.
Originally, the Massey family only had a few billion in assets, but in the past few months, they had expanded their influence and taken out high–interest loans.
With Lincoln’s intervention, the Massey family’s assets plummeted rapidly.
Their legal income was about one or two billion.
“Caspian, tell me the truth. How much are the total assets of the Massey family?” Kate asked cautiously.
Several billion seemed to be a small figure for the actual total assets of the Massey family.
Willow couldn’t stand it anymore.
“Mom! Will you ever stop? Caspian is already going to give you one billion. Stop pestering him,” Willow said.
“How am I pestering him? I’m part of the Massey family. Don’t I have the right to know?” Kate argued.
Looking at her, Caspian was extremely helpless.
Kate indeed wouldn’t give up.
However, if he were to disclose the entire assets of the Massey family, she would definitely continue to pester him.
After all, the actual assets amounted to tens of billions. She wouldn’t be satisfied with just one billion.
“I can’t tell you that. Just go and ask Lincoln for one billion.” With that said, Caspian left the villa.
He really didn’t want to continue arguing with Kate.
Meanwhile, a private plane landed at Eastcove Airport.
Dozens of well–dressed men stood on both sides of the airport runway.
This indicated that a significant figure was arriving.
Soon, an outstanding woman in a tight–fitting black suit and black stockings emerged.
Her impressive figure compelled others to take another glance at her.
But her cold demeanor discouraged any approach.
Facing her, even the dozens of b*dyguards showed utmost respect as they didn’t dare to meet
her eyes.

Everyone knew she wasn’t someone to be casually provoked.
This woman was Jyn Morrison, the CEO of Morrison Group of Dhord City.
Her company possessed assets exceeding hundreds of billion in Dhord City, making her a tycoon in the business world!
Moreover, she was also the heiress of the Morrison family in Dhord City.
Countless elite bachelors, real estate tycoons, and wealthy heirs had pursued her, but she remained single.
She always maintained a cool demeanor, earning her the title of “Ice Queen“!
“Ms. Morrison, I’ve investigated thoroughly. After retiring, Caspian married into the Stewart family in Southlake City. His wife is Willow Stewart, the CEO of Southlake Corporation…” A secretary wearing a black skirt approached Jyn respectfully.
The secretary handed her a folder.
She didn’t understand why Jyn would have a special interest in a matrilocal son–in–law.
As far as she knew, Jyn and Caspian were comrades in arms. But after Jyn retired, she inherited the family business.
Meanwhile, Caspian disappeared without a trace.
Now that Jyn knew of Caspian’s whereabouts, she rushed to Southlake City.
She even canceled a contract worth billions.
Her secretary, Ginger Copley, was extremely surprised. A person like Jyn could have anyone she wanted, yet she was fixated on a matrilocal son–in–law.
Jyn looked through the information in the folder. After Caspian married into the Stewart family, he led a life without much dignity.
She was somewhat annoyed at this information as her fair face showed a trace of sternness.
Caspian was the man she had waited for several years.
Why did Willow get to have him?
When Ginger saw Jyn getting angry, she was even more shocked.
Ms. Morrison was usually indifferent and never got angry over anything.
Yet today, she was furious over Caspian.
If this news were to spread to Dhord City, it would definitely surprise many people.
“Let’s go to Southlake Corporation!” Jyn said.

30 minutes later, Jyn and her group arrived.
“This is Southlake Corporation?” Jyn looked at the building in front of her and said disdainfully.
Although Southlake Corporation’s building was tall and prosperous, in her eyes, it was no different from a thatched hut.
Morrison Group in Dhord City was a hundred times better!
“Let’s go!”
Jyn didn’t say much and walked into Southlake Corporation with her secretary and b*dyguards.
“Hello, is there something I can help you with?”
The front desk receptionist was frightened when this group of people rushed in.
Jyn remained silent. She didn’t want to engage with such people.
“Open your eyes wide and take a good look! This is Ms. Morrison, the CEO of Morrison Group of Dhord City!” Ginger stepped forward and proclaimed.
“What? Ms. Morrison of Morrison Group? Jyn Morrison!”
The receptionist was stunned.
Everyone knew about Morrison Group as they were one of the largest companies in Dhord City.
Their assets reached hundreds of billions, and they had a wide range of industries under them.
Jyn was hailed as the youngest and most promising female CEO!
“Ms. Morrison, nice to meet you!” the receptionist said with trembling fear.
“Where is Willow? Have her come out to greet us!” Ginger said impatiently.
Ginger had accompanied Jyn and had seen many big corporations before. In her eyes, Southlake Corporation meant nothing.
