My father walked up to my mother, squatted down, and held her hand. “Honey, I mess up. Let’s not get a divorce. I’ll definitely change from now on.”
Sarah’s face fell,stunned.”Honey,what’re you doing?You can ditch this hag.You said you had no feelings—she’s the one clinging!”
I laughed.In her mind, my mom was desperate?This was a power marriage,evenly matched.
My mother impatiently took out the documents from her bag and threw them in his face. “These are all the evidence of your infidelity, as well as some of the criminal information about your company. If you don’t want me to expose them, just obediently get a divorce as I said.”
My father frantically flipped through the documents. Everything was clearly written in them, including the time of his infidelity, the people he had an affair with, and the criminal information of his company.
He directly slumped to the ground. “Fine, let’s get a divorce.”
My mom slid a prepared agreement over.”Sign.”
Sarah snatched it.”No way you get this much!You greedy witch,trying to steal my man’s wealth?”
My mom smiled.”I almost forgot about you. The money he spent on you, you have to pay it back to me. Otherwise, you can just wait for the legal summons.”
Sarah froze,ignoring her crying baby,eyes glued to the agreement.
As the party at fault, my father almost left the marriage with nothing. Back then, my grandfather handed over the company to him only after he got married. Now that they were getting a divorce, everything had to be divided. Currently, my mother was the second largest shareholder of the company. And my mother’s company was the property gifted by my maternal grandfather before the marriage, which had nothing to do with my father.
After the divorce, my mother and I immediately sold the shares in our hands to his old rival. That person suddenly became the largest shareholder of the company, overpowering my father.
Then we announced their divorce in the newspaper and declared that my mother was single again. The media was very harsh, laughing at my father for having bad taste, for giving up the golden phoenix and choosing the rotten wild chicken instead. He raged,calling Mom to curse her,but who cared?His days were numbered.
A few months passed,Robert regained company control,outpacing Mom’s and Nathan’s firms,aggressively expanding and targeting us.I told Mom to lay low—he’d crash soon.
I heard from friends in the circle that he didn’t marry Sarah,instead hunting for a well-matched bride.
Sarah found out that he was going on dates, she was so angry that she went crazy. She followed him and disrupted the blind date arrangements. The two of them had a huge argument and exposed each other’s weaknesses.
Robert slapped her on the street,calling her shameless. The two of them fought until they were both covered in blood.
I had no time for their drama—I’d passed my exam and joined the state police department.
On the day I started working, the department launched an operation to combat gangsters and eliminate evil. I actively participated and targeted my scumbag father first. Father, my meritorious service medal’s coming.
Mom handed me her evidence.”she had investigated. “Honey, it took me several years to find this with great difficulty. Come on! Give this social cancer a good catch for me.
I stood up and saluted her to express my gratitude.”Thanks, Ms.West.Won’t let you down.”
Nathan sat,offering a stack of files.”Online intel I gathered.Should help.”
I pounced,hugging him.”Thank you,best boyfriend ever!”
My mom couldn’t stand it and covered her face. “Stop being so lovey-dovey here. When are you going to get married?”
I stuck out my tongue.”Mind your business—and your new young boyfriend.He keeps calling me asking where you are.”
She shoved me playfully.”Get lost.”
When I led my team members into Harper Inc.,they were having a meeting. When Robert saw me come in, he sneered, “What, is your mom out of money and now you’re here to beg me?”
I ignored him,pulling my badge.”Mr.Harper,we’ve received reports of your involvement in organ trafficking,tax evasion,and bribery.Come with us.”
He really lived up to his title as a tycoon. In just a few months, he managed to revitalize the company and even made it develop better than before. There’s no way he could have done it without some shady business.
With our evidence,he’d never see daylight again.
His face paled.”Claire,don’t joke with Daddy.”
I raised a hand.”We’re done.”
“If you have anything to say, confess it honestly at the police station.”
Officers swarmed, maintaining order.
The case blew up online.My team worked overtime,freezing his assets and evicting Sarah and her kid from his villa.
