Chapter 551
“Are you home? Ill be coming back, as there’s something I have to discuss with you.”
I am. 11 wait for you.’ Erica replied gently.
With the video and contract in hand, Alex left to meet Erica. Currently, the Tillman Residence looked deserted. In
the past, Mrs. Garner would open the door for him whenever he came home, Now, he had to enter the password
himself to open the door.
Upon entering the house, Alex found Erica, who was waiting for his arrival, sitting on the sofa. Erica was speculating
that Alex wanted to discuss the future of the company with her.
Where’s Mrs. Garner:” Alex asked curiously.
“She quit and went back home since I don’t need a servant when I’m by myself,” Erica explained. Since yesterday
afternoon, she had been watching the news to see if there were any reports of dead bodies found in the sea, but
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnot once did the image of Mrs. Garner appear on the news. This made her think that Mrs. Garner might have
disappeared from the face of the earth forever, or perhaps Mrs. Garner had already been chewed to bits by the
sharks. Regardless, Mrs. Garner no longer existed in this world.
‘Erica, were you afraid of being by yourself last night?” Alex asked as soon as he sat down.
‘I was fine. I wasn’t that afraid when I thought of you.” Erica looked at Alex flirtatiously,
After Alex looked at the woman as though he was watching a theater play, he took out his iPad and played a certain
video. Immediately after, the room was filled with what Erica had said the night before: “If you try to refuse me
again, I will fire you first thing the next morning.”

Frightened, Erica blanched at once and tried to grab the iPad from his hand like a madman while shamelessly
glaring at him. “Why… Why do you have this?”
Alex closed the video before he sneered, “You still have the nerve to ask me? When you were the one who had
slept with one of my employees? Erica Tillman, are you playing some sort of sick game of infidelity with me?”
“What do you want?” Red with anger, Erica gritted her teeth, as she felt she had fallen into a trap.
Alex said nothing further as he threw a contract right in front of Erica. “Sign it!”
“What is this?” Erica took the contract, all the while glaring at Alex.
“It’s good news; I’ll be returning all of my shares in Tillman Constructions to you. From now on, you will be holding
70 percent of the company’s shares, as I’ll be quitting that wretch of a company.“ A look of disgust appeared on his
face. “The company was still profitable back when your father was still around, but now, it’s losing millions every
day. I’m not going to accompany you to saddle these debts.”
“You… Alex, I don’t get how the company operates. I know it’s my fault. Please, don’t go through
with the divorce; don’t leave me, okay?” Erica became anxious all of a sudden. Should the : company continue to
lose money like this, bankruptcy would be unavoidable. The shares she
held in the company would amount to nothing in the end.
“Do you think I’ll still want to be with you? I can’t even stand the sight of a dirty woman like you! Now, if you don’t
want this video to be uploaded online for the world to see, sign it!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmErica broke down. Gritting her teeth, she trembled all over. “I’m not signing this. You were the one who caused the
company to be in this state. Why should I be the one to bear these debts alone?”
“If you want to point fingers, point them at Anastasia, as this was all her doing and has nothing to do with me.” Alex
refused to admit that his capabilities were not up to par. Nevertheless, he wished to have nothing to do with Tillman
Constructions anymore since he had already gotten a sum of money from the company.
“Sign it.” Alex threatened once more by bringing attention to the iPad in his hand. “Otherwise, I’ll upload this online.
The whole world will see just how shameful you are then.”
“No!” Erica was on the verge of going crazy, as she knew that her life would be ruined the minute that video was
uploaded online. She would never be able to hold her head up high ever again.
Caved to Alex’s threats, Erica could only pick up the pen and sign on the dotted line before stamping her fingerprint
next to her signature.
After Erica finished signing the documents, Alex took one copy before he said coldly, “Erica Tillman, don’t bother
me from now on. Your father’s affairs have nothing to do with me. I shouldn’t need to remind you that I can easily
upload this video anytime I want if you named me as a participant in the revision of the will.”
