Chapter 505:
She had only whispered to her brother to tease the Powell couple, but she hadn't anticipated that Coen’s mental
resilience was so fragile that he'd faint before her brother could even respond.
Everett and others hurried over, and the front desk staff called for an ambulance. Norah ccloser to assess
the situation. Just like with Madeline, Coen had fainted due to overwhelming stress, and he would recover soon.
However, seeing Rhoda so distraught, Norah did not offer any reassurance.
Seeing that the situation wasn’t serious, Everett returned to Sean to affirm his interest in cooperation.

“Mr. Scott, I'm really keen on partnering with you. All of your industries are ideal for collaboration.”
“Didn’t you just finalize a deal with the Powells? There’s no need for collaboration withfor now.” Sean's
response was cold. He wasn’t fond of the Powell family, be it the seemingly delicate Madeline, the overbearing
Coen, or the snarky Rhoda—they all irked him.
“You seem to get along well with the Powell family, huh? That's good.”
He nodded slightly and added, “I have other commitments to tend to. Let's discuss our future partnership
another time.”
Kylee was pissed off by her husband's foolishness. Sean’s words couldn’t have been clearer, so why couldn't her
husband grasp them?
The implication was clear: if their family partnered with the Powells, they couldn't work with the Scott family!
Norah and the Powell family were not on good terms, and it would be foolish for anyone to try and bring them
together! Now, they were going to give up working with the Scott family just to team up with the regular Powell
family?! Her husband was being utterly foolish!

Kylee stepped forward, her tone polite. “Mr. Scott, there seems to be a misunderstanding. This is the first
meeting between our family and the Powell family. There’s no prior friendship. The project just seemed like a
good fit. Our top preference has always been to collaborate with the Scott family. Right, honey?”
Everett, understanding the unspoken agreement after years together, promptly followed up. “Exactly. We have
long been interested in a partnership with the Scott Group. Could we possibly discuss this opportunity, Mr.
Scott?”
Rhoda felt something was off. “Mr. Morris, didn’t you agree to a partnership with us?” With her husband
unconscious here, was Everett really withdrawing from their agreement? She wasn’t deeply knowledgeable
about business, but she sensed something was amiss. Her husband had devoted countless nights and significant
effort to this deal. She couldn't let it slip away.
She rushed over to Everett's side. “Mr. Morris, my husband passed out. You can’t bail out now!”
