Chapter 103
After a moment of silence, Grace said with a smile, “They’ll have to pay for what they’ve done sooner
or later, and Edgar is no exception.”
Hearing this, Adrain finally heaved a sigh of relief.
She would get even with Edgar because of what had happened in the past, but she would not take.
revenge on him because of Sarah.
Grace still cared about him, didn’t she?
Now, because she was only angry with him because of Sarah, he still had a chance to be with Grace!
After making up his mind, he stood up happily and said, “Don’t worry, Grace. I’ll correct these problems.
I’m willing to wait as long as you need, then I’ll be with you forever.”
After that, he left.
Grace held her forehead and was speechless.
It seemed that he still didn’t fully understand what she meant…
“Forget it. I’ll explain it when I have a chance in the future,” she said to herself.
In the next few days, Jade claimed that she had to go to various construction sites every day and was
almost never in the office. Thus, she never came to report on the progress of her work to Yvonne
again.
If Yvonne called to ask, Jade would just say that she was busy.
Yvonne was very unhappy with Jade’s attitude.
If it weren’t for the fact that she needed talents now, Yvonne would have lost her temper long ago.
Just as she was thinking, her phone rang. It was Mia.
“Mia, what’s wrong
On the other end of the phone, Mia was extremely dissatisfied and complained.
“Why have I lost so much pocket money recently? I went shopping with two young ladies from the
Barrow family, but I didn’t have enough money on my card when I swiped it. How can I stay in my friend
circle in the future?”
Yvonne felt a little guilty.
Now that all the money in her hands had been invested in various projects by Jade, she could only
quietly reduce Mia’s pocket money.
“Mom! You said before that you’d support me with everything. How can you treat me like this…”
Yvonne had no choice but to comfort Mia with the words that Jade had told her before.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Mia, the company has encountered some financial difficulties recently, and I had no choice. When
everything gets better, I’ll double your pocket money. I’ll buy whatever you want!”
“Then I want to launch a full set of limited edition skincare products!”
“Okay, okay, I’ll buy all of them!”
The Uconsine and His Bilangierwile
After hanging up the phone, Yvonne was thinking of Jade.
Jade hadn’t returned to the office to report the progress for a few days, nor had she made a phone call.
Yvonne kept feeling that her niece was hiding something from her.
Unable to feel at ease, she decided to call Jade again.
As soon as she took her phone, the door was suddenly pushed open by her assistant, Lily.
Yvonne was unhappy and glared at her. “Don’t you know how to knock on the door when you come
in?”
Lily said anxiously, “Mrs. Fallen, bad news! LANBAG SE’s construction team is making trouble. They’re
blocking the gate of the building!”
“What?”
Yvonne slammed her fist on the desk and stood up in shock. Why? Where are our security guards!”
“There are too many people here. There are more than a hundred people from the engineering team
below. They said that the project funds we agreed on have not been transferred to their accounts yet,
and the person in charge before has been dismissed by Ms. Jade! They had no choice but to come
here for an explanation!”
Didn’t transfer the money to their accounts?!
What about her money?
“What the hell is Jade up to?
An extremely bad idea flashed through Yvonne’s mind, and she was so scared that her face turned
pale.
She didn’t believe that Jade would dare to do this to her! Jade was her niece!
In order to verify it, she dialed Jade’s number with trembling hands
Yvonne was waiting for the call to go through.
The ringtone was heard, getting closer and closer.
It seemed to be… coming from outside the door?
Lily also noticed that the door was open. Just as she was about to open it completely, a pair of slender
hands opened it from the outside.
Jade, gorgeously adorned, wearing a colorful gown, and followed by a man dressed as a lawyer,
Seeing that she was not in a hurry and even deliberately dressed up, it was obvious that she was well
prepared.
Seeing that the atmosphere wasn’t right, Yvonne’s assistant, Lily, snuck out of the office.
In the office, Yvonne was so shocked that her eyes turned red.
Jade was amused by her expression.
“Auntie, I haven’t seen you in a few days. Did you miss me so much?”
Yvonne gritted her teeth and still had a glimmer of hope in her heart. “Jade, why didn’t you pay the

LANBAG SE project workers? What have you been doing these days?”
“Didn’t you guess it just now?”
She walked to the chair opposite Yvonne with a smile and sat down. That’s right, I didn’t take out a
penny of the 88 billion dollars. I asked the financial department to transfer it to my account quietly. By
the way, at least half of the company is mine now.”
“You! How dare you!”
Such a large sum of money had been pocketed by Jade?!
Was it part of her plan to replace more than half of the company with her people?
Yvonne was so angry that she slipped into the chair in pain. “How could your father indulge your
shameless behavior? Or are you hiding it from him?”
Jade sneered and said, “Auntie, have you forgotten that my father is not in charge of my family? But he
still supports me in this matter. You put on airs as soon as you married into the Fallen family. Do you
think he doesn’t hate you?”
Yvonne’s family background was not very good. Back then, she had relied on her campus relationship
and her academic qualifications to marry into the Fallen family.
Yvonne’s brother, James Lee, was not so lucky. He took a fancy to the daughter of the Evans family.
But because of his family background, he could only marry into the Evans family but could not even
have a child with his surname.
Yvonne was so angry that she had a heart attack. She clutched the clothes on her chest tightly to help
herself breathe.
“You stole so much money from the Fallen Group. What do you want?”
Jade smiled and raised her hand to signal the lawyer to step forward.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe lawyer met the suspicious gaze of Yvonne and put a contract on the desk.
Yvonne took it, opened it, and looked at it. “Jade Evans! How dare you want to take charge of the
Fallen Group!”
“How can you say that?”
Jade smiled awkwardly and continued, “Auntie, take a good look. I’m willing to buy the management
rights of the Fallen Group for 10 billion dollars. You don’t know how to run it at all. I think it’s better for
me to run the Fallen Group.”
10 billion dollars?!
Yvonne gritted her teeth. It seemed that the Evans family really supported Jade. On the basis of 88
billion dollars, the Evans family gave her 12 billion dollars.
“Oh my g od! This is my family! My biological brother and niece!”
Yvonne was so angry that she couldn’t speak. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, “In your
dreams! The Fallen Group is a shareholder system! The biggest shareholder Is my son! If you want to
buy the Fallen Group, ask him first.”
Tve sent someone to find my cousin. He has been missing for so long. I guess he died outside.
I’ve also sent out Greg Fallen. Tsk tsk, so only you, Edgar’s mother, can make decisions on his
behalf.”
“You!” Yvonne was filled with grief and indignation.
Only then did she figure out Jade’s plan. First, Jade lured her into selling her shares and mortgaging
her house, and then she would get a huge sum of money to destroy the Fallen Group. After that, she
would get the whole Fallen Group.
Seeing that Yvonne remained silent, Jade became a little impatient. “Auntie, it’s useless to delay it any
longer. Why don’t you just sign it? In the future, when the Fallen Group merges with the Evans Group,
its status will only improve!”
Yvonne was in extreme despair.
Could it be that the Fallen Group was really going to be ruined by her?
Yvonne bit her lower lip, leaving a row of bl oody marks on it. Her hands trembled as she tried to get
a pen.
A cold and arrogant voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
“Ms. Evans, it’s too early to celebrate. If you want to buy the Fallen Group, you should ask me first!”
Hearing this familiar voice, Yvonne and Jade were both shocked!
