“Mother, it’s all my fault. Please, find it in your heart to forgive me. | will deeply reflect on my actions upon returning.” “Forgive you? It’s easy for you to utter those words. You nearly took Marcus’ life.”
Suddenly, a scalding cup of coffee crashed upon Brock’s forehead.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBrock, now bleeding from the impact, widened his eyes in shock. His gaze met Claudia’s, his fingers gripping his knees with intense force.
When it cto intimacy, Brock, as Claudia’s eldest son, had never received praise from her. Instead, she seemed to suppress him at every turn.
Now, a significant portion of the Thomas Group's shares belonged to Marcus. Claudia’s treatment felt genuinely unjust.
“your eyes reek of greed and self-interest.” As Claudia caught sight of her eldest son’s spiteful gaze, her anger intensified, prompting her to rap her crutch against the floor.
“No, that’s not true. | genuinely repent and beg for your forgiveness. | hope you can see the sincerity behind my actions. | was too eager to pressure Marcus into signing the contract. But it’s clear that he stands to profit in the end. So why did Marcus refuse to sign?”
Claudia pounded her chest, feeling deeply disappointed in him.
“Why won't he sign it? Haven't you realized it yet? The Dayen Group’s financial situation is dire. They’re setting us up!” Brock stood dumbfounded. He hadn’t expected Claudia to uncover the truth behind the scenes.
“Mother, are you serious? | had no idea they are penniless!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBrock began to act like he had no idea of what was going on. In truth, he was well aware of the Dayen Group’s situation. If he insisted on signing a contract with them, it would only result in losses for the Thomas Group, and he had already pocketed a substantial sum.
Marcus sat silently on the side, stealing a glance at Derek.
Derek, on the other hand, retrieved a stack of documents from his pocket and handed them to Claudia.
“Mrs. Thomas, please take a look at these documents,” he said. Claudia accepted the papers and cacross a photograph showcasing the head of the Dayen Group offering a bribe to Brock. Upon reading through the documents, she comprehended the truth and furiously flung the photo at Brock’s face.
“You've truly disappointed me. You’ve embezzled company funds for your own benefit. Don’t forget that your last nis Thomas. From this point forward, you will no longer be responsible for the Novus Group. All of its operations have been transferred to the headquarters. You will go abroad to study, and you are not allowed to return without my permission.”
“What? No! I’ve dedicated my entire life to Novus Group. It cannot be taken away from me,” Brock exclaimed, his emotions running high.
If Claudia stripped him of Novus Group’s business, he would be left idle in the future. How could he fulfill his ambitions?
