Nothing to Lose

In the end, their breakfast had just carried on like how it had before the whole conversation was brought up. 

Cyrus was given no choice but to drop the subject and left the exchange at that. Winter could see that he still wanted to say something. But with Grace guarding him, he could not do anything but obey. 

'Well, it's up to Uncle if he'll push through my idea or not. I've got nothing to lose here…' Winter thought to herself, a little amused by the situation.

'If he decided to invest in a jewelry business, it would be good for the company, especially since there are certain events in the near future that'll lead it to be in demand. It'll be good 'cause even though he's still acting as the head of our family business, he's nothing but my proxy. Soon enough, I'll completely take over Middleton Corporation. On the other hand, if he decided not to take up my idea, it would be his loss. I could just do it myself and start my own jewelry business instead.'
