Semua Bab Even After Death: Bab 1601 - Bab 1610

Avery added, trying to lure Jacqueline into the trap, "We're in hot waters. Mom is missing, and Henley's family is watching us. They've never liked how Grandpa favored us. "They consider Dad's company one of Grandpa's assets, so they began to purchase some shares here and there before Grandpa passed on. Before, we didn't have anything to worry about. Those shares wouldn't pose a threat, but Grandpa is dead now."Jacqueline's expression changed. "Is it bad?""Yes, it's bad. The shares they bought and Grandpa's shares have surpassed the amount of shares Dad has." He sighed. "It's because Dad loves us so much. He gave us a portion of the shares. No one expected Grandpa to pass away, and Henley's family is causing trouble now. The amount of shares Dad has can't be compared to them. "They can become the rightful owner of the company. Even if we take this to the court, we're bound to lose the case.""What should we do?"Jacqueline had long set her eyes on this company. If she weren

Alexander was a careful person who didn't ask for much. His sole wish was to have a peaceful life.It wasn't that he couldn't bring himself to do as Jacqueline said, but she was basically planning to gamble all their savings for a future. A loss would mean losing everything!Similar to Jacqueline's story, he struck gold and was able to become the son of a rich family by chance. He cherished his life dearly.Even if they decided to back out of the game right now, they had enough money to spend for the rest of their life.Greed was never rooted in him. To him, this moment was the peak of his life. Never once had he ever wished to become rich overnight.Jacqueline obviously thought differently from him. Despite his effort to dissuade her from doing it, she didn't budge an inch.She became livid instead. "Alexander Procter, I'm just going to ask this one question—are you going to help me or not?""Why would I not help you, Jacqueline? I'm just—""Then enough of the nagging! Once I

Not even a book could enumerate the number of awful things Ethan had done to Olivia.It pained David so much to hear those stories happening to his daughter.It wasn't something to be brushed off with one word. Just how did she get through those nights all alone?David couldn't forgive Ethan. The way David looked at Ethan was no different from looking at an enemy."Calm down, Dad. You need rest," Olivia cooed.He patted his chest. "Olivia, no matter what happens to our family, I'll never allow you to be with this man again."He glared at Ethan. "What are you looking at? Get out! You're not welcome here! You bullied my daughter because she didn't have a family, so stay away from her in the future! I'll be glad to look after her myself forever.""Sir, I know that everything was my fault. Nothing can be done to atone for my sin. Nothing. I just want to apologize and make up for what I did.""Save it. You shouldn't have done it if you knew that it was wrong. I don't care if you're

Ethan knew what Olivia meant. "Don't worry, Liv. I've asked someone to look into it. It's just that it's not going to be easy."After all, he was mainly influential and powerful in Arlandia. Wielding his authority here was quite difficult. Furthermore, Brandon had planned for this for many years. It wouldn't be easy to track him down.That was why David couldn't sleep lately. The men he dispatched would end up missing. There was no news as of today.Ethan ended up fainting after kneeling for two days straight, but the Fordhams stood firm with their stance.Sean coldly said, "He should've died there."Troy agreed, "Bad guys tend to live longer than the good guys."David hummed in response. "Throw him out. What an eyesore."Olivia shut her eyes, feeling helpless. It seemed like they wouldn't accept him for the time being.She told Kelvin to carry Ethan to the bed so that she could look after him.Avery, who didn't hate Ethan that much, approached Olivia. "Jacqueline has the mo

David's words sent a chill down everyone's spine. Among the people present, many of them used to be on his side. However, they chose a new leader to follow after the news of the plane crash.Although they didn't know what kind of illness Avery had, his health had been deteriorating as the years went by. It seemed serious.Avery's brothers seemed unreliable, so they chose to side with Henley.Who would've known that David's death was a feign? He even showed up at such a critical moment!Immediately, they began to curry favor with David."Mr. David, I'm glad to see you safe and sound. We've been praying for you, hoping for you too—"David interrupted, "Hoping for me to die tragically sounds more like it."The person chuckled wryly. "How humorous of you, Mr. David.""We've been hoping for you to come back sooner. Look, the company was in huge trouble while you weren't around. This way, Mr. David." One of the elderly people changed his mind the moment he saw David.He was on Hen
