Chapter 596

ผู้เขียน: Tina Peach
Sheryn finally broke down in tears and poured everything out to Wilma.

Wilma was silent for a moment on the other end of the line, then burst out in disbelief.

“What did you just say?! You sided with Howard and refused to testify for Tyler? Sheryn, have you completely lost your mind? What is Howard to you, huh? Why are you helping an outsider?”

It was rare for Sheryn to hear Wilma raise her voice.

Though she was only Wilma’s adopted daughter, Wilma had always treated her well over the years.

This was the first time Sheryn had heard her so furious, but Sheryn felt wronged.

“Mom, you can’t put all the blame on me! If it weren’t for Rachel stirring up trouble, things wouldn’t have turned out like this. You didn’t see it—Tyler was willing to throw his life away for that woman! Why? What does she have that I don’t?”

She was too busy airing her grievances to notice Wilma’s growing exasperation.

“You foolish child! Can’t you tell the difference between a moment and a lifetime? Even if

    It was a critical moment. There was no time left for hesitation.After a brief thought, Sasha agreed without further delay. “Fine.”Yvette leaned in, reminding her, “Remember, this plan was your idea, not mine.”Sasha silently cursed Yvette a hundred times in her head, but forced a smile. “Yes, yes, it's my idea. Happy now?”Yvette pulled up a phone number and handed it to Sasha. “I used to have insomnia, and this doctor was good. You should consult him. For someone like my dad, you’ll get proper guidance. I’m sure he can give you solid advice.”Sasha was smart. She caught the hint immediately and quietly memorized the number. “Don’t worry. I’ve got this.”-By ten that night, Rachel still hadn’t heard from Tyler. The doctors had already come in multiple times to change his dressings, and she couldn’t tell them he had slipped out of the hospital. Instead, she lied, saying he was in the bathroom—or maybe caught up with company matters he couldn’t ignore.Honestly, she only hal

    Jim’s face was calm. “Yes, Rachel. I’m handing the company over to you. From now on, you’re the rightful heir.”Rachel froze. She had never imagined Jim would entrust the entire company to her.“Dad, I don’t really want to take over the company,” she admitted.Jim sighed, understanding her hesitation. “I get it. In the past, the Lloyd family treated you unfairly. I know why you’d want nothing to do with the company. But this business isn't just mine. Your mother poured her heart into it, too. Can you do it for her sake?”His voice trembled. He was on the verge of breaking into tears.Rachel softened. She knew Lloyd Enterprise had been built by her parents from scratch. Although the Lloyd family had other businesses in the past, they had all gone bankrupt during an economic crisis.This company was truly her parents’ creation, not just another branch of the Lloyd family empire.Even if Rachel walked away now, she couldn’t let Yvette inherit what her parents had worked so hard to

    Jim’s hand trembled as he reached out to grasp Rachel’s. His eyes were heavy with guilt.“Rachel, it’s always been me who’s let you down. I was too weak. I thought if I focused on making things right with Yvette for a few years, helped her get balanced, then I could bring you back. But instead, I only made her more spoiled and entitled.”Rachel held his hand tightly in return. She knew exactly what was on his mind.“Dad, I know you did it for Yvette, but unfortunately, she may never truly understand your intentions.”Rachel understood Jim well. At his core, he was a soft-hearted man. If he weren’t, he never would have gone to such lengths to compensate Yvette. His goal had always been to make Yvette realize her mistakes and to prevent her from continuing down a misguided path.“If I’m not mistaken, Dad, the inheritance you left Yvette should be enough for her to live on, right?”A flicker of emotion passed through Jim’s cloudy eyes, and his face twitched slightly. He lowered his

    Yvette’s eyes went wide with disbelief.“Dad, what are you saying? You want me to give up my inheritance? Are you out of your mind? I’m your daughter! And besides, I grew up in the countryside and went through all that hardship. You should be giving me more!”She didn’t even need to ask how much Jim had left her. From his words alone, she could tell it wasn’t much. With Sasha now heading for divorce, she wouldn’t get much either. That left nearly everything for Rachel.Jim’s expression darkened with disappointment.“At this point, you’re still so selfish, only thinking about money. Yvette, you’ve had the life you have today because of me. If I hadn’t spoiled you too much, you wouldn’t have ended up like this.”Yvette, misreading his words, thought he was feeling guilty. She tried to cover it up with a weak smile. “Yeah, Dad, if you hadn’t given me away by mistake, I wouldn’t have grown up so starved for love.”Jim’s voice cut through sharply.“That’s not what I meant, Yvette. Si

    “Do you think I'm oblivious, Sasha? Do you really think I’m too old to see what you’ve been doing behind my back?” Jim snapped. Jim was being wheeled into the room by a nurse. On the surface, he looked steady, but Rachel could tell he was pushing himself. He wasn’t fully healed, yet he came just to back her up.Rachel’s heart clenched. She stared at him, emotions swirling.Sasha froze, caught off guard by Jim’s sudden appearance, and stepped forward as if realizing something.“Jim, after all these years together, you can doubt anyone else, but why me?”Jim snorted coldly and shot her a hard look. “Sasha, we’re done. Divorce papers have already been sent to your place. When you see them, if everything checks out, just sign.”Sasha’s eyes went wide. Disbelief was written all over her face.“You want a divorce? Are you insane, Jim?! If we split, who’s going to take care of you?”Jim’s laugh was bitter. “As if you’ve been caring for me while I’ve been in the hospital! No, it’s bec

    Yvette didn’t hold back. She continued to provoke Rachel.“Seriously, Rachel. If you had just been willing to marry Howard from the start, none of this would’ve happened. Now you’ve ruined the Ziegler family’s one precious heir, and they might never have kids because of it. You think they’re just going to let that slide?“Mr. Hunt is a stand-up guy, and I’m sure the Ziegler family approached you first. He was just trying to protect you, which is why he clashed with them. So now, their only option is to go after him.”Sasha added in a sharp, accusing tone, “Exactly, Rachel! You really have no sense sometimes. How could you put Mr. Hunt in this position?”Rachel felt her head spinning from their words. Her glare cut through them like shards of ice, freezing the air around them.“Done talking? Good. You can leave now and take your stuff. Trash belongs in the trash can.”Sasha shivered and instinctively reached for Yvette’s hand.“Yvette, let’s just go.”But Yvette wasn’t backing d
