CHAPTER 1259 HOW DARE YOU?
D*mn this b*tch!
If it weren't for Elisa, he wouldn't be living in such misery!
If not for her, his family could have lived a happy life and not been treated like pariahs!
Norman was grateful that he had purchased a property under his mistress' name. Otherwise, he would have been left with nothing!
He took a deep breath and composed himself, returning to his humble tone. "Liz, you've seen my suffering now, living a life worse than a stray. Although there have been misunderstandings in the past, you know that your aunt always had your father's best interests at heart, and she did everything to fulfill his wishes. While I know you're upset, karma has returned to haunt us. Could you give Uncle a chance to start over?"
Elisa sneered coldly, "A chance to start over?"
Norman nodded frantically, his face contorted with remorse, "When I was the chairman, I had to be strict with the employees for the sake of the company's future. Some of them have been bearing grudges against me, and now anyone above or below me in rank would target me. Almost everyone in the company is picking on me now. Uncle's life at work has become painful and humiliating."
Norman's eyes glistened with tears.
He continued, "Your father and I were blood brothers, Liz. Why would I hurt my own brother... It's all because he has an incurable disease..."
Elisa's eyes narrowed to slits.
Incurable disease?
As a doctor, she had saved countless lives but neglected to care for her father. She had never given him regular check-ups. If it weren't for her negligence, those crooks wouldn't have had the opportunity to harm him...
Elisa felt a painful squeeze in her chest, but she held back her emotions and glared at the person before her.
"I, too, wonder how you could bring yourself to do something so despicable to your brother," she said.
Norman immediately shook his head and feigned innocence. "No, Liz. You've misunderstood. I'm telling the truth, every bit of it..."
Elisa snorted and remained silent.
Seeing Elisa refuse to speak made Norman anxious. He looked at her beautiful yet stern face and begged, "Liz, I know I messed up. I don't expect shares or money, but could you help me get a promotion? Uncle Norman is begging you to spare some mercy and kindness; let everyone see you still care about me. Please?"
Elisa's lips curled into a sardonic smile, "Why would I do that? Who do you think you are to make such
requests? What do you have to offer in exchange for my help?"
Norman was caught off guard by Elisa's shrewdness and savagery.
Norman knew that mere words wouldn't persuade Elisa, so he paused to gather his thoughts before saying, "Liz, you're becoming more astute by the day. I understand I can't simply ask you for help without offering something in return. It would be unfair to you, and I would feel terrible about it."
Elisa remained stoic at Norman's words. She didn't believe a single word he said.
