Burning the Patents of Betrayal Chapter 9
"Chuck said, as long as Adam's reputation was ruined, he'd give me a ton of money! Julie, it's not my fault! He forced me! Please don't come after me!"Crying, Sabrina crawled toward me, trying to grab my leg."Adam, I was wrong! I'll listen to you from now on! I'm your sister—you can't abandon me!"Hearing this, Julie looked at Chuck in disbelief."Chuck, how could you do something like this?"Seeing that everything had been exposed, Chuck dropped the pretense altogether.His eyes reddened as he roared at Julie, "Why can't I? Because your heart has always belonged to Adam! I want him ruined—I want him gone! Then the spot as your husband will be mine!""You're delusional!"Furious beyond restraint, Julie slapped him hard across the face.A bright red handprint immediately appeared on Chuck's cheek.Clutching his face, his expression twisted into something wild and venomous."And what do you think you are? Sneaking around behind your husband's back, getting knocked up with a

I stared at Chuck coldly, then shook him off with a sharp motion."Do whatever you want. That sister of mine—I've already abandoned her."The smug look on Chuck's face froze instantly.I didn't spare him another glance. Without hesitation, I turned and walked off the stage.Behind me, Chuck shouted something in a fury. Julie seemed to try to rush after me as well, but both of them were stopped.Over the next few months, everything unfolded according to plan.The new product, with its groundbreaking technology, quickly captured the market. Orders poured in. We all but monopolized the entire sector.The anticipated massive profits arrived right on schedule. James and I both made a fortune.I took that opportunity—along with James's continued investment—to revive Ford Corporation, my great family empire that the Blacks had once completely destroyed.Ford Corporation now struggled yet stubbornly sprouted new shoots in this city once more.Watching the company come back to life, m

A deathly silence fell over the room.Every camera swung toward me in unison."I heard you and Ms. Black are married. Is there any chance this involves corporate espionage?"Whispers spread through the audience, growing louder by the second.Several executives sent by James began to look uneasy.Julie watched me with absolute confidence.She had always believed she knew me. In her eyes, I was still the same Adam—the man who would give up everything for her, who held nothing back.All she had to do was expose me in public, leave me with nowhere to go, and I would bow my head like I had after every argument before, admit I was wrong, and come back to her side.I stared at her, nausea and fury churning in my chest.But after a few seconds, I suddenly let out a soft laugh.I turned and shot James a look.He gave a slight nod. One of his lawyers immediately stood, file in hand, and strode forward."Ladies and gentlemen, here are the complete patent registration documents for all

In the private room sat a man with sharp, chiseled features.It was James Quincy, Julie's most formidable rival.Over the years, relying on the core patents I had developed, Julie had repeatedly crushed him in the marketplace. The grudge between their two companies ran deep.I took out the backup recording chip and slid it across the table."This is the original recording of one of Julie's smuggling deals from three years ago. With this, you'll have more than enough to bring her down. But I have two conditions."James's expression turned serious. He gestured for me to continue.I met his gaze directly."First, I want Julie completely destroyed. Every cent of patent fees she's stolen from me over the years—I want it all back, with interest. I want her reputation in ruins."Second, I need an investment to restart the new energy project my father never got to finish."I have the complete core technical data and improved designs—but I need funding and a production line."At the m

Julie's assistant carefully placed the voice recorder on her desk.Taking a deep breath, Julie pressed play.She hadn't even heard the first sentence before her face went pale and she flung it aside.The recording contained evidence of her illegal overseas transactions.For years, the authorities had been quietly investigating Black Corporation.Relying on her connections, she had always managed to avoid getting caught with solid evidence.As her business grew bigger, so did her confidence. She had come to believe those old dealings were long buried in the dust of time.She never imagined such damning evidence would end up in my hands.Then, as if reassured by a sudden thought, Julie let out a breath."Adam must be furious. That's why he's using this to scare me. There's no way he could actually bring himself to destroy me."A faint, almost indulgent smile even appeared on her face.She turned to the assistant and ordered, "Go. Find him immediately. I went too far this time—

What a "wonderful" sister I have.A deep chill settled in my chest. In the end, rage twisted into bitter laughter, and tears slipped from the corners of my eyes.Just then, Julie dragged me into the hospital room, her face dark with fury, and forced me to kneel in front of Chuck.Lying pale on the bed, Chuck weakly opened his mouth."Adam just lost control for a moment. I don't blame him… please don't send him to prison."Julie's eyes reddened. She grabbed my hair and slammed my head against the floor."Even after being hurt this badly, Chuck is still thinking of you—how can you be so cruel, trying to frame him like this?"I was forced to kowtow to Chuck again and again, my forehead striking the ground until it split open, blood streaming down as my consciousness blurred.Only then did Julie stop. Her voice turned ice cold."You wronged Chuck first. So you'll compensate him—with one of your kidneys."As they dragged me away, I struggled to lift my head.Chuck stood behind he
