Chapter 508

Autor: The Stranded Fish
The arguments online grew more heated, but Samantha didn't see them until she finished her third project meeting.

"Ms. Manning, the board has already sent out an email. They want an emergency meeting this afternoon. They want you to explain what has been going around online and about all the negative news."

Her personal assistant's voice was low, her concern obvious. With how loud the scandal was, it threatened her new position.

Finella might well have arranged the emergency meeting, and h

  • The Choices We Made   Chapter 669

    Danielle slowly sat back down on the couch. Then, she picked up the remote and turned the television back on. Then she took one of the roses she had yet to arrange, trimmed a section from its stem, and placed it in the vase… - Meanwhile, a black sedan traveled smoothly along the highway to Central City. Weston sat in the back, eyes closed and head against the headrest. The driver concentrated on the road. He could see Weston's quiet expression in the back seat through the rearview mirror. Assuming he had fallen asleep, the driver slowed and raised the heater's temperature by one degree. But Weston was awake all along. His hands rested on his knees, his fingers repeatedly rubbing the head on his cane. His eyes were closed, but faint, irregular movements continued underneath his eyelids. He was fighting hard to get a grip on his emotions, but it was like quicksand. The harder he struggled, the deeper he sank. It was not anger, nor was it humiliation at having been exposed

    All it proved was that Sydney was not the little girl Weston had been seeking. Danielle had never considered that he had confirmed Lucio was his son more than a decade ago. When Weston spoke again, there was no guilt or weakness in his voice. Instead, he sounded coolly indifferent, almost shameless. "I have no idea what you're talking about. You say I had an affair. Where's your proof? You show me a test saying Sydney isn't related to me, and somehow that proves I have an illegitimate son? Don't be ridiculous." Danielle stood with her mouth open, unable to answer. She had been so proud of her own discovery and so eager to make Weston hate Evelyn and Sydney for deceiving him that she had thrown down the negative result without thinking things through. Now, she had no more moves left to make on the board. "No evidence means you've made things up," he said casually as if he was dismissing a child who was making unreasonable demands. "And as for the attack, think about what y

    Weston's body suddenly swayed after he heard what Danielle gleefully proclaimed. He bent his head down and stared at the thin sheet of paper, though he felt as if he could no longer understand the words. He read down the page, then back up, over and over again. His lips moved twice, but nothing came out. Hunter had been standing in the doorway and had heard every word Danielle said clearly. He hurried to the coffee table and snatched up the report. Then he looked at Danielle. "Grandma, could there be a mistake? How did you get Sydney's DNA sample anyway?" "I pulled the hairs from her head!" Danielle's voice was full of the smug pride of someone who had finally won. "When she came here with Weston to hit me, I took them without her noticing. I've still got a few left. I found a reputable lab myself. You can have another test if you don't believe it!" Hunter studied the conclusion for several seconds. Then he brought the report to Weston and held it flat before him. He show

    "I'm your wife, and you had me held down so she could hit me?" Danielle demanded an answer from Weston. "Since when do you go to such lengths for those from her generation, Weston? "Even if you were right and they were both at fault, Katarina is your own granddaughter. You've always chosen to protect your family. Would you really treat her and an outsider the same? You wouldn't take her side at all?" Weston's fingers tightened slightly around his cane, but his expression gave nothing away. "I told you. It was to keep her quiet." "Keep her quiet? Ha!" She laughed with an almost mad delight. "There's more to it than that. Today, I'm going to tell everyone about the awful things you've done to me over the years. "Did you think I never knew about your affair? I've swallowed the humiliation all this time for our children's futures, but I can't put up with it anymore. "Cheating wasn't enough. You had to clean up after that woman too, supporting the illegitimate offspring she left

    Theodore's expression changed. He snuffed out his cigarette using his bare hand and stepped forward to snatch the bottle from Danielle. He tightened the cap and handed it to Beatrice. "Mom, what are you doing?!" Then he turned to Weston, shocked and confused. "Dad, what happened? Is any of that true?" Weston looked at neither Danielle nor the pesticide. He simply sat down on the couch and folded his hands over his cane. "Both sides were responsible for Katarina's suffering. "Katarina was the one who picked up the cane and hit Sydney first. Sydney's hand was swollen before she took the cane away and fought back. Katarina's leg wasn't broken just by the blow. According to the doctor, her own fall had something to do with it too. "Then Katarina called Linda over and had her beat Sydney until her face was completely swollen. Sydney's arms were also covered in bruises from the cane. "I looked at both of their injuries. Sydney had more, and she was lucky her arm wasn't broken.

    When Danielle received the report, her hands were shaking. It was not because of nerves, but it was feverish anticipation. It was as if she might just hit the jackpot. She opened the last page, skipping the dense tables to read the conclusion. Disbelief, confusion, and utter bewilderment appeared on her face in turn. Then she suddenly let out a sharp, spiteful laugh. She threw the report on the coffee table and picked up her phone, swiping rapidly through the screen. She called her son, her daughter-in-law, and her grandsons. Each heard the same message. "Come here tomorrow. I have something important to announce. All of you. You have to come." She called Weston last. The phone rang for a long time before he answered. "What is it?" he asked, as flat and distant as though she were just another business acquaintance. "Weston." There was a smug, condescending pleasure in her voice he had never heard before. "Come over tomorrow. I've got something to tell you. Our son is co
