42 Falling Out
“No, you’re wrong. You’re the one who put the Lambert Corporation in danger. Ever since you took over the Lambert family, have you ever calculated how much of the family’s assets have been evaporated? Instead of waiting for you to drag the Lambert family down to h*ll, I might as well sell my shares in advance and preserve the last of the family’s glory.”
Balor hated it the most when others said that he was useless. That was why he had ignored the objections of many shareholders and developed a new business for the company. It was one thing for the outsiders and the shareholders to criticize him, but Caroline was just a young b*tch. How could she dare to?
“Do you think it’s up to you, someone who can’t even pass the general exam, to point fingers at business matters? This is the entire industry’s fault, not my mistake as the leader. I’ve put in so much effort to transform the company, but all the efforts in the early stage were destroyed because of your willfulness. Do you know how much loss your willfulness has brought to the company and the shareholders? As the second largest shareholder of the company, I have the right to seek compensation from you on behalf of the other shareholders.”
“You can do that, I don’t mind.” Caroline crossed her arms and said, “As for the reputation and interests of the Lambert family, they no longer exist when you allowed the heir of the Lambert family to be trampled under the feet of others. So, you don’t have to wait until now to worry about these things that don’t exist in the first place.”
Caroline had completely peeled off Balor’s face. Caroline directly exposed that all he had done over the years was to hide his true intentions.
He was so angry that he was about to go berserk, but Kelly quickly stopped him.
“Dad, now is not the time to talk about these things.” She pinched Balor and gave him a look. “We came here today because, firstly, we are worried about how Big Sister is doing. Secondly, we are also here to help Big Sister solve her problem.”
Balor reacted immediately. Not only did he not have the initiative, but he had also been led away by Caroline. When he heard Kelly’s words, he immediately came back to his senses and accused Caroline. “If you were half as sensible as your sister, things wouldn’t have turned out this way today.”
Kelly quickly patted his chest and comforted him, “Dad, Sister only exploded because she was bullied too badly by them. She might not have thought that much. As family, what we should do is to provide her with the best protection and help.”
After consoling Balor, Kelly stood up. “Sister, what we said the day before yesterday still stands. The Lambert family can back you up and provide you with protection, allowing you to safely escape from the encirclement of the Taylor family and the other families.”
“The premise is that I have to give you the money I have from selling my shares, right?” Caroline directly exposed their purpose. “To be honest, I hate it when you guys beat around the bush. He clearly wanted me to die and then hand over everything. However, you still want to use a bunch of benevolence, righteousness, and morality to decorate yourself. This doesn’t make you smart, but only makes you more despicable and hypocritical.”
Kelly looked hurt. “Sister, I know you’ve been brooding over what happened in the past few years. But Dad and I truly want the best for you. Why do you have to use the most malicious intent to speculate about us?”
“Whether it’s true or just my speculation, you guys know it in your hearts. You don’t have to say it to disgust me.” Caroline took two steps back. “But you don’t have to waste your time. I sold my shares, which means that I don’t want to hand over this part of the profits to any of you. So, you don’t have to think about this money anymore.”
Hearing Caroline’s words, Balor no longer pretended to be a kind and strict father. “How should we arrange this money? Do you think you can make the decision?”
With a wave of his hand, four or five strong bodyguards walked in. “I don’t mind telling you what I told you the other day. You have to pay this money, or you can forget about leaving this house.”
“You’ve lost the protection of your grandfather. You’re an 18-year-old girl with a huge amount of wealth. Even if I don’t do anything, do you think you can keep these things?” A cruel smile appeared on Balor’s lips. “Maybe one day, you will have a small accident. For example, you might be hit by a car, slip, fall from a tall building, and so on. As your biological father and the first heir to your assets, I don’t want you to end up in such a miserable state. Do you understand what I mean?”
