Born to Flex: Here Comes the Real Heiress Chapter 10
Simon was knocked flat onto the floor, and blood immediately began pouring from his nose. Belinda and Maya let out terrified screams. Meanwhile, the bodyguards swiftly freed me from my restraints.I slowly rose to my feet. After rubbing my reddened cheek, I looked down at Simon, who was sprawled on the floor, and scoffed."I've never trusted any of you. No matter where I go, I always have a team of bodyguards with me, all of them former special forces soldiers. If I go ten minutes without checking in with them, they'll come looking for me immediately."You thought you could hold me hostage with the pathetic weaklings you hired, huh?"Once I said my piece, I turned around. I never wanted to have anything to do with this family again. But when I reached the door, I paused and glanced back at Simon."Oh, right. Let me give you a tip—the Gibson family won't last another three months."No one spoke.Before leaving, I took one last look at Belinda. She was standing there with red-rimm

I turned around.The affectionate, almost obsequious expression that had been on Simon's face moments ago had vanished completely. All that remained was cold indifference and flashes of anger."At the end of the day, you're too young." Simon slowly rose to his feet and began walking toward me. "This is Gibson Corporation—we're in my territory right now. Did you really think you could come and go as you pleased?"Belinda's expression shifted, but in the end, she took her husband's side.Simon looked me over as though I were an asset whose value needed to be squeezed dry."If the Gardners care so much about you, then it's only right if you make a worthy contribution to our family, right?"He commanded the bodyguards, "Restrain her."Several bodyguards immediately closed in around me. One of them seized my wrists in a painful grip.Standing off to the side, Maya finally had a smug smile on her face again."Well, Colette? You were so tough just now. Why aren't you showing off the

The smile on Simon's face was frozen stiff. He assumed that being welcomed back into one's birth family was something a daughter who had spent close to two decades growing up elsewhere should have been desperate for.And with me in the picture, the Gibson family could easily gain the backing of the Gardner family. Yet I'd rejected his suggestion without a moment's hesitation.Simon's expression hardened, but he still forced a smile."Colette, are you still holding a grudge against me? I admit I didn't handle things well before, but we're a family. Family shouldn't hold grudges against each other. No matter what, you're still my biological daughter—"I couldn't even be bothered to hear him out. I got to my feet and turned to leave.Simon hurriedly tapped out a message on his phone. Just as I reached the conference room door, it swung open, and Belinda appeared in the doorway. She had clearly rushed over.The moment she entered, her gaze went straight to me."Colette…"Her voice

When Alvin couldn't muster a response, I continued, "You signed a highly leveraged agreement without prior board approval. You made wildly inaccurate projections of overseas markets. You even deliberately squeezed the company's cash flow reserves just to inflate the numbers in the short term."Alvin, did you really think no one would find out about all the stupid things you've done?"Simon snatched the document off the table. A heavy silence hung over the conference room. The only sound was the rustling of pages as Simon flipped through everything. The more he read, the darker his expression became.By the time he reached the final page, his hands had started trembling."Alvin!" he roared.The entire conference room seemed to shake, and Alvin's face turned deathly pale."Dad… Just let me explain—""Explain what!" Simon hurled the documents straight at his face. "You still have the audacity to say you want to explain things to me? You bypassed the board and took on massive levera

The entire conference room fell silent for a full three seconds. Maya was the first to let out a piercing scream."That's impossible!" Her voice cracked as she threw the biggest fit ever, like a feral cat whose tail was stepped on. "How could you possibly be related to the Gardner family? Stop trying to intimidate us with these outrageous lies!"There was a simple reason why she'd dared to humiliate me so shamelessly this whole time—she was the one who was raised as the pampered heiress of the wealthy Gibson family for the last 18 years. That was the sole foundation of her sense of superiority.But if I really was a member of the Gardner family, it would mean that she'd been acting like a clown all along.Alvin's expression was even uglier than Maya's. She was simply having a meltdown, but he was terrified that his position in the family was about to be completely shaken.He understood Simon all too well. In the face of such enormous gains, not even his own son mattered to him.I

"32.3 billion dollars."Those were the words I'd calmly said to Isaac.Everyone else in the conference room, including Isaac's assistant, looked completely clueless."Mr. Sherman?"The other senior executives exchanged confused glances. Clearly, none of them had any idea what I was talking about, let alone why Isaac had suddenly panicked.Just half an hour ago, Sherman Capital had been doing everything in its power to crush Gibson Corporation. But now, Isaac was actually willing to take a loss himself just to keep Gibson Corporation afloat?Only Isaac knew what that number meant.32.3 billion dollars was the exact amount stipulated in the performance-based agreement Sherman Capital had signed with Gardner Group. The agreement itself was a highly confidential secret. Even among the Shermans themselves, no more than five people were aware of it.Cold sweat began to bead on Isaac's forehead. It was only when he saw the confused expressions of his own team that he abruptly realized
