Chapter 337
Chapter 337:
She learned that Braylee, Roscoe’s competent wife, played a crucial role in managing Bloom Group’s operations alongside him. Braylee’s pride was evident in her disgust for those she deemed incompetent or unproductive.
Fernanda then ordered Bright Lights Media to dedicate an entire week to reporting solely on the Rafael incident, disregarding other news. This tactic was intended to signal to Braylee that Bright Lights Media wasn’t challenging them but merely lacked other content to publish.
A company that seemed so inefficient appeared worthless as an acquisition target.
Fernanda’s assessment proved accurate. Following Bloom Group’s announcement of their integration completion, Rafael stormed into Braylee’s office, visibly angry. “Braylee, why did you spare Bright Lights Media? Don’t you know Fernanda is in charge there now? Wasn’t this the perfect opportunity to retaliate?”
Braylee met his gaze firmly, sensing his anger and frustration.
Despite her irritation at his sudden intrusion, she responded coldly, “Acquisitions are purely business. Your personal issues with Fernanda should remain separate.”
“Come on! She’s openly challenging us!” Rafael raised his voice. “She broadcast that recording everywhere, flaunting our dispute for the whole world to see!”
“So?” Braylee asked. “What came of it? We contained it immediately, didn’t we? It caused no real trouble.”
Despite this, Rafael remained unsettled.
He felt that Braylee and her husband should have seized this chance to crush Fernanda’s modest enterprise, demonstrating the Hudson family’s capability to destroy her works.
Braylee stood, approached Rafael, and gently guided him onto the sofa.
“We decided not to acquire Fernanda’s company because it simply isn’t worth it. That company lacks talent and resources, and it’s a total disaster after the leadership shake-up. Why should we waste our time trying to acquire it? Acquiring it would require spending money, resources, and effort. Wouldn’t it be wiser to focus on companies that are more worthwhile?”
Still unconvinced, Rafael asked, “Is her operation really that bad?”

“Yes, absolutely. Why do you think they spent an entire week focused solely on you? They have nothing else to report! A company that can’t immediately latch onto trending topics—do you think it has a future?”
With these explanations, Rafael began to feel somewhat relieved. So, Fernanda’s business truly was insignificant!
Braylee softly patted Rafael’s shoulder, comforting him. “Don’t worry. A company that’s going nowhere will naturally collapse. We shouldn’t bother intervening; doing so would only result in our own losses.”
Rafael gave a slight nod, and the anger he had brought with him began to fade away at last.
“But I can’t just let her antagonize us without consequence. We’ve already made our point.” Braylee chuckled softly, her pride clear as she continued, “I have just…”
“Canceled our contract with Voligny Company. The Morgan family must be scrambling now. Given Robert’s bad temper, he won’t make life easy for Fernanda.”
Hearing this, Rafael’s mood lifted, a smile breaking across his face.
