When he mentioned Matilda, Calvin's face flushed with regret, and his voice became stern. "We've received word that Ms. Sachs, the company's founder, has been accused of embezzling company assets, concealing taxable income, and posing significant risks to the company. The board has decided to remove Ms. Sachs from her positions as Chairman of the Board, President of the Group, and legal representative. And we will hand her over to the relevant authorities!"As he said that, Liam led the police past Chad and Stanley.The police handcuffed Matilda while Liam solemnly read the arrest warrant."Ms. Matilda Sachs, you're being arrested for violating company operating regulations, misappropriating company funds, and concealing taxable income. You're under arrest! Take her away!"Matilda's body appeared to lose all of its strength at that moment.She had no idea what was happening. She had always followed the rules and had never done anything like that.At the time, Matilda was still pl
At the time, Joe was hanging out with a group of tough-looking men in Bloomington's largest slum.After receiving a message from Jojo, Joe turned to the fierce-looking fatty beside him and said, "It's time!"Darkin, the fatty, was the most notorious thug in Bloomington's underground world.He frequently worked as an enforcer for wealthy individuals. As long as there was enough money, he would do anything.Darkin looked at his henchmen and repeated Joe's request. "Are you sure you want us to burn down the whole Temple Road?"Joe smiled and said, "Of course. The cleaner, the better. If you could kill a few people with the fire, that would be even better. Make sure it causes a scene!"Darkin smiled and pointed to the western side of Temple Road, saying, "This is the highest point on Temple Road, and there is an entrance to the sewer. My plan is..."After listening to Darkin, Joe snapped his fingers at the bodyguard behind him.The bodyguard brought over a briefcase, which Joe took
"We have a problem that needs to be solved now. Matilda still has 20 percent of Bellenuite's shares. How do we get them?"Calvin did not want to be too hard on Matilda, so he said, "That's simple. We accelerate Bellenuite's listing and issue additional shares to dilute Matilda's position. Even if Matilda doesn't go to jail, she will not be able to sell her shares. She will only be able to watch as we dilute her holdings."However, Jojo disagreed with that approach and said, "I want to ensure Matilda goes to prison. I never want her to see the light of day again!"Calvin said nonchalantly, "You can do whatever you want. Matilda is already out of the picture anyway."He gestured to Stanley and stood up to leave.Jojo said, "Oh, by the way, about the demolition of Temple Road—"Calvin stopped and did not even turn his head as he said, "Do as you wish. Firemind Capital and Lumigen want the whole of Temple Road."Jojo watched them leave. Then, she immediately called the Sachs family.
"How does this relate to your ex-husband? I heard he never gets involved in company affairs," Liam said, flipping through the documents in his hands.However, Matilda was adamant. "It has to be him. Otherwise, why would he agree to divorce without receiving a single penny?"If Liam had not known about Chad's background, he might have believed her.However, Liam knew that Chad would not resort to such behavior.So, Liam said, "I advise you to tell the truth and not attempt to frame someone innocent. I will give you a couple of hours to think it over. I hope you will tell the truth the next time I see you."However, Matilda struggled and yelled hoarsely. Her eyes were bloodshot as she repeated the same sentence. "I'm telling the truth. This is all because of Chad. He must have done it!"Sonya witnessed all of that and felt sorry for Chad.She could not understand why Chad told her to get Matilda out.After leaving the interrogation room, Liam noticed Sonya and asked, surprised, "
When Sonya saw Chad, she said, "You did what you could. However, she still thinks you're framing her—"Before she could finish her sentence, Matilda angrily interrupted her. "Is that not true? He has been opposing me the entire time. Just as Bellenuite and Lumigen's collaboration was about to take off, he had me imprisoned and my reputation ruined!"Marilyn went to Matilda to help her up. She defended Chad, saying, "Matilda, Chad is not the person you believe him to be. He was not the one who framed you!"Chad unexpectedly said, "She will know the truth eventually. Nonetheless, thank you for the assistance, Ms. Walt."Just then, alarms rang in the police station, and an officer rushed in, panicked, shouting, "This is bad. There's a fire on Temple Road, and it's spreading rapidly. Be prepared to mobilize."The next moment, the entire station was crowded with police cars rushing out of the compound. Liam, wearing a grim expression, prepared to leave. When he passed by Chad, he said,
Jojo turned around in Joe's arms, facing away from the large windows, and kissed Joe deeply."It's all thanks to you. How would you like me to reward you today?" Jojo unbuttoned Joe's shirt and slipped her hand inside. Joe's breathing quickened as he held Jojo and said, "No, we should be rewarding each other…"Just then, the phone on the table rang. However, both of them ignored the call.Matilda hung up the phone, believing Jojo had betrayed her.At that moment, someone opened the door. Matilda turned around in alarm, only to see a familiar figure."I knew you would be here," Chad said, standing at the door with a lunch box.He had a cigarette in his mouth, which flickered in the dimly lit room."What are you doing here?" Matilda asked disdainfully.Chad placed the lunch box on the table and said, "These are some of your favorites!"When she heard that, she began to cry uncontrollably.She used to despise it when Chad brought her food, but at that moment, she felt an indescr
"All the evidence is against you, as many important documents bear your signature. However, given your unique situation as the founder of Bellenuite, we don't want to treat this as a criminal case. I recommend you admit to all charges and use your remaining 20 percent ownership to avoid imprisonment."Matilda became extremely agitated when she heard the last sentence, exclaiming angrily, "I will not give up my shares. Bellenuite is like my child. A mother can't just hand over her child!"Liam never expected Matilda to be so determined. He looked at Chad, hoping he would say something.At that moment, there was another knock on the door. When the officer opened the door, Janette was standing there."You won't be able to convince her. Let me!"Matilda looked at Janette, surprised, and said, "Ms. Lawson, how did you know about this place?"Dusty and tired, Janette walked into the room and proudly said, "The Lawson Group makes investors. How can we invest such a large sum of money if
Celine drove while John, whose arms were still in casts, struggled to flip through the property deeds."This is the house Matilda and Chad purchased together five years ago. They were not even married yet, but they bought a house!""Who knew what your sister was thinking back then? If I hadn't discovered the property deed in the villa, we wouldn't have known about it!"Celine got angrier as she thought about it.However, John said enviously, "But Matilda is certainly good at making money. She had only been in college for three years and already had enough money to buy her own house!"Celine sneered, "It doesn't matter how much money she makes; it's all for our family. No one can take any away, not even this house!"As they spoke, they arrived at the residential area across from Bellenuite's headquarters.Meanwhile, inside the house, Matilda was drinking soup and crying.She had no idea that being able to drink a bowl of hot soup early in the morning would be so luxurious.Only
