Chapter 275: Child’s Play

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Actually, it won’t be difficult to resolve this matter. I can give you 45,000 dollars now, but what will happen in a month’s time? Have you thought about whether you’ll really be able to find a sponsor? Even if you really do find a sponsor, what will happen if they decide to stop sponsoring you when they run into their own difficulties? Mercy Orphanage has done well, but it can’t be a charity that relies on the generosity of others.”

The director nodded in agreement, yet she was at her wit’s end.

“I can introduce you to a few corporations, and you can work with them to come up with profitable projects. Then, Mercy Orphanage will get a share of the profits and a steady income. You’ll be able to focus on taking care of the children then.”

The director hadn’t paid much attention to Finn Taylor earlier, and she simply thought that he was Jamie Little’s friend. In fact, it was Finn Taylor who had brought up the topic of a donation. The director had never once mentioned it, yet Finn Taylor had taken the initiative to make such a proposition.

She couldn’t help but wonder about his background. “Mr. Taylor, what do you do?”

“Didn’t I already say that I’m unemployed?” Finn Taylor chuckled. He could tell that the director didn’t believe him. “My wife is really impressive. You might’ve heard of her.”

“Oh, may I get her name?”

“Yvette Larson—the chairman of the Larson Corporation.”

If this had happened in the past, the director might not have known about his wife. But now, the Larson Corporation was the second-largest company in the whole of San Francisco.

The Larson Corporation must’ve been among the companies that the director approached.

“Huh? If your wife is Yvette Larson, you must be…” The director suddenly stopped in the middle of her sentence.

‘I never expected my status as a matrilocal son-in-law to be so well-known for even the director to know about it.’?Awkwardness filled Finn Taylor’s face. “Sigh, let’s just talk about the collaboration.”

“Mr. Taylor, we don’t have to discuss anything. I’ll agree to anything you propose, and we’ll be willing to do whatever we can to work with you.”

“You don’t have to do much, really. The companies will have to publicize their involvement with your orphanage so as to improve their reputation. This means that the children could be invited to their charitable events to participate in performances or to give speeches.”

The director nodded. “That’s fine. Our children already attend regular dance and singing classes. Besides, it’s only right for us to express our gratitude.”

Following that, Finn Taylor didn’t stay in the orphanage for much longer.

Yvette Larson had run into some trouble at the office, so he asked to be excused.

Just then, Jamie Little asked a little embarrassedly, “Um… Finn Taylor, could you give me a ride?”

Jamie Little had come in Harvey Little’s car, but because of their disagreement, the latter had left. This left Jamie Little stranded.

“Alright. Let’s go.”

The director sent the pair off. When she saw Finn Taylor getting into his Ferrari, she couldn’t help but think about Harvey Little’s words. He had said that Finn Taylor couldn’t even afford a 30,000-dollar Buick.

At that time, Finn Taylor hadn’t even tried to rebut him. It wasn’t because Finn Taylor didn’t have a car but because the difference between them was so great that he saw no point in rebuking the other.

What was the point in that? Was he worth wasting his breath on?

…

Finn Taylor left with Jamie Little, and she apologized to the former along the way. “Finn Taylor, I’m sorry. I didn’t think that Harvey would be so careless with his words.”

He waved her off. “That’s fine. Besides, it’s difficult for people like him to provoke me.”

Jamie Little laughed bitterly on Harvey Little’s behalf.

The latter had struggled to keep up his pretense, thinking that he’d earn respect by saying such things. Yet, he was nothing more than a clown in the eyes of others. Besides, Finn Taylor would’ve lost if he had lost control over the other’s words.

As Finn Taylor sent Jamie Little back to her studio, he reminded her that developing the photos as soon as possible would be the greatest help she could give him. He then wasted no time in heading to the Larson Corporation.

As soon as he walked into the office, he saw Yvette Larson’s helpless smile.

“What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

“Not really. Everything is fine with David Sullivan holding the fort.”

“Why did they call you back in such a hurry then?”

Earlier in the morning, Yvette Larson had initially prepared to leave with him. However, the company had suddenly asked her to return to the office.

Worried, Yvette Larson had chosen not to follow her husband.

Had someone been joking with her?

“Take a look at this.” Yvette Larson retrieved a piece of paper from her drawer and handed it to her spouse.

Finn Taylor couldn’t help but sneer as he read through the paper’s contents—it was from Quince Larson.

The Larson Corporation was now the second-largest corporation in San Francisco. Although Yvette Larson was the chairman of the company, she didn’t hold the decision power.

The company had been acquired, so Quince Larson was asking for the company’s name to be changed.

He wanted his company to be named the Larson Corporation. Besides, he felt that he was now amongst the top-tier elites in the city now that his company was the third-largest in the city.

He hoped that Yvette Larson would return the position of family head to him. If she refused, he would call for a family meeting.

As long as at least three elders agreed to it, they would reselect a new family head.

Finn Taylor couldn’t hold in his laughter.?‘Does he think this is child’s play? Does he really think the Larson family is so amazing? So what if Yvette hands the position of family head over to him? As long as I’m here, Yvette can establish a new and more powerful Larson family at any time.. The Larson family is just a second-tier family—a mid-tier one at that. If not for Yvette, I’d never care for such an insignificant family! Yet, Quince Larson treats it like a precious gem!’
