I’m Someone Else

Chapter 245

Chapter 245

Seeing Olivia heading upstairs, Leah became anxious. She had not finished speaking to her yet, so why was she leaving?

Leah lifted her foot, ready to follow her upstairs. However, Thomas directly blocked her path, saying nothing, just coldly staring at her. Despite her act of barging into the villa without Olivia’s permission, he had already given her face by not taking action. He would have no choice but to use force if she dared to chase after her!

Leah instinctively stopped in her tracks. If this had been before, she would have acted without hesitation if Thomas had dared to block her. Now, she became hesitant. His shocking move earlier had left a strong impression on her. She understood the young man named Thomas standing before her was perhaps not as simple as the information had portrayed.

“Thomas, I’ll give you some advice. Stay away from Olivia if you want to stay alive!”

As Leah wished, she had gained complete control over the Pearson Family. Their wealth was far more abundant than she had pictured as it was one of the six major families in Irieson. She believed gifting the Pearson Family to the Genius of Capitalis would make him very happy. Besides, the marriage was practically sealed with her beautiful granddaughter as the bride!

When the Genius of Capitalis arrived in Irieson and found Thomas—that pathetic man—still clinging to Olivia, he would not spare him! As for her? The reason why she was bewitched by him was that she was inexperienced. Once she encountered an outstanding man, she would abandon Thomas and throw herself into the arms of the Genius of Capitalis!

As for those who waited for Thomas, they could finally act on ending his life. At least, that was what Leah believed.

He sneered. “I’ve always had a strong will to live. Anyone who wants to kill me can come and try. We’ll see if they have the ability. By the way, I almost forgot to tell you that there had been countless who wanted to take my life over the years. Unfortunately, they all failed. In the end, I killed them. I don’t know if you wish to be the next one.”

Threaten me? Just you, Leah? Are you even worthy?

“You!” Anger blazed in her eyes. “Thomas, don’t think you’re invincible just because you know little martial arts. When my grandson-in-law arrives, you’ll see the difference between you and a true strong warrior! You’re nothing more than a weak ant compared to him!”

He calmly asked, “Are you done talking?”

“What do you mean?”

“Do you have anything else to say?”

“No, I’m done.”

Thomas nodded, softly uttering, “Get lost!”

“You are so arrogant, Thomas. Just wait!” After saying that, she turned around and left the villa.

Leah, a well-known figure in Capitalis, could not bear such humiliation. She remembered his insolence and decided to wait and see. By then, she would show him who was in control of everything.

As her figure disappeared, he smirked contemptuously. “Your grandson-in-law? Genius of Capitalis? Haha!” He wanted to see this so-called top talent and know his capabilities. Even though his body had not fully recovered, he was unafraid of a fight!

Trot! Trot! Trot!

Olivia’s footsteps announced that she was descending the stairs. She had seen Leah leave from the bedroom window and decided to come down. However, her mood had not improved much. Instead, she was drowning with disappointment.

“Thomas, we won’t be able to retrieve Keyshire Property’s business,” she said with a sense of grievance. Her eyes, as if capable of speaking, were filled with tears. She was blaming herself greatly.

Olivia, why are you so foolish? I’d already severed ties with the Pearson Family. What does it have to do with me whether Terrence’s alive or not? If he wants to be sick, let him be. What for going back? If I’m not returning, will someone else take away half of Keyshire Property’s business?

Thomas was taken aback. Why can’t we retrieve it? Didn’t Terrence promise to return it?

“What do you mean?”

She explained the situation to him while sobbing softly. After she had gone upstairs earlier, Declan called and informed her about the current situation of the Pearson Group. None of the high-ranking officials in the company agreed to return the business to Keyshire Property. Even the individuals who had previously promised suddenly changed their minds. They simply refused to give it back, no matter what Olivia said!

“Don’t cry. We’ll head to the Pearson Group and reclaim what’s rightfully ours!”

After hearing her words, he understood that the Pearson Group was planning to play tricks. Fine, let’s play then! Since they had already set a shameless precedent, I’ll join them in their rogue behavior! Can’t retrieve it? I’ll just get it back! I’ve never been afraid of a challenge when it comes to comparing the stronger fist!

Olivia wiped away her tears and obediently nodded. “Okay, what do I need to do now?”

“Call Uncle Declan. I need detailed information about the executives in the Pearson Group, including their home addresses.” Thomas’ expression was somewhat fierce as he spoke. He had made up his mind. You all don’t want to give it back? Fine, I’ll take your lives then!

She quickly dialed Declan’s number and relayed the request. Afterward, she changed her clothes and left the house with Thomas. She was determined that she had to retrieve Keyshire Property’s business today.

At the headquarters of the Pearson Group, they came face to face with Declan. He handed a thick stack of documents to Thomas. “These are the files you requested.”

He opened them and took a look. There were quite a lot of people, more than twenty individuals. Many of their names were familiar, as he had previously spent some time at the Pearson Group. It was normal to have heard their name even if he did not personally know them.

They parked the car and walked into the office building together. Immediately, the Pearson Group was in turmoil.

Declan’s arrival was not surprising, but it was different for Olivia. After all, she used to be the former president of the company! Although she had stepped down, her prestige remained.

“Look, isn’t that our former president?”

“Ah! My goddess is back!”

“Hmm. She truly deserves the title of the Most Beautiful Female Entrepreneur in Irieson. She seems even more beautiful than before!”

“I feel motivated seeing her again!”

“Is our goddess going to resume her position as our president? That’s wonderful! I’ve been looking forward to this day!”

In no time, Declan led Thomas into a conference room where more than twenty executives had already gathered. They were all requested by Declan himself. Although the Pearson Group was now under Leah’s control, he was still the legitimate successor of the Pearson Family, and his words held power.
