Chapter 391

"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, Grandma. I truly can't lay eggs," Angela replied with amusement as she watched Natalie's livid face.What was Natalie thinking? Did she want to turn the whole family upside down?Natalie pointed at Angela. "You! Get out!" she snarled as she rose from her seat."Calm down, Grandma." Dexter, who'd been silent until now, spoke calmly. "We won't stop you from bringing Trevor into the family but don't expect others to welcome him with open arms." His words instantly sent Natalie into a fury. "You too? He is your brother! He—" "I have no brother. My mother had only one child—me," Dexter interjected coldly. "Also, if you continue to make unreasonable claims against my mother and my wife while favoring an outsider…"He paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and continued, "I'll send you away, and whatever you do after that is none of my business. " "You piece of shit! It's all because of you that your mother and your wife dared to treat me w

"Hey, do I look like I'll lose my composure that easily?" Angela scoffed as she prepared to get out of the car. "But don't blame me for being ruthless if he doesn't fall in line. Since you've entrusted the matter to me, stay out of it and just play along when the time comes."Seeing her confidence, Dexter was at a loss for words. "Just act accordingly, okay?"As Angela nodded casually, she asked, "Were you the one who took Trevor away?"Dexter responded with silence. Until now, he still suspected that Trevor was behind the scheme against Angela, causing her injuries. Since Trevor had ended up in his hands, there was no way he would let this opportunity pass by.After briefly handing over company affairs, Angela took Joanne to Emerelda Jewelries, the subsidiary under Bamford Co.Although it was just a subsidiary, it was anything but small—judging by the two towers that made up the office alone. Angela was stunned by the sight of the skyscraper when she got to the office. Even Graha

Felix was taken aback when he followed Hank's gaze. Angela looked too familiar to him. However, he couldn't remember who she was or why she was here.After all, he was obsessed with the feeling of being in control of Emerelda Jewelries. He had lost all common sense long ago."I'm Angela," she reminded him with a smile. "So you were behind the theft of our company's antiques?"Felix was furious, but he laughed and replied, "Who let her in? How dare she spout nonsense here? The company is mine, and so is everything inside it! What does any of this have to do with you?"Still, the name "Angela" felt oddly familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before."How ridiculous! Do you even hear yourself? 80% of the company shares belong to me, yet you dare to claim it for yourself? Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" Angela sneered. Suddenly, as though struck by a realization, she exclaimed, "Oh my! Wait, are you Uncle Felix? No, there's no way. Uncle Felix wouldn't commit inventory theft o

"Uncle Felix, listen…" Dexter quietly pulled Felix aside. "I've already handed this company over to Angela. She's experienced in managing a company. So from now on, she makes all the decisions here. My mom and I have no say in anything."Felix's face turned livid with anger. "Why did you give it to her? What right does she have to take your things?"Dexter let out a bitter smile and said helplessly, "My wife is a tough woman. What can I do?""You… You coward! How can you let your wife boss you around? Now, I have to suffer such humiliation because of you!" Felix exclaimed in exasperation. He glared at Dexter in frustration and barked, "Have you forgotten how well I treated you when you were younger? Didn't I even save you from those criminals too?"Felix's reaction came as no surprise. Every time he wanted something, he would bring up the past. Dexter was tired of it, but he was equally helpless whenever it happened."I can personally send you one or two items if you have your e

The door to Felix's office wasn't even fully closed. It had been left half-open, and the sounds of a video game being played came from inside.Angela knocked twice, but Felix didn't respond. So, she simply pushed the door open and walked in."Mr. Rosewell, it's time for the meeting," she stated.Felix glanced at her impatiently but didn't say a word. He continued playing his game, fully immersed in it.Angela took out her phone, snapped a picture, and sent it to the company's group chat. Almost instantly, notifications flooded Felix's work phone.Felix was peeved and retaliated immediately. "What the hell are you doing? Do you really think you're in charge here?""If you don't take me seriously, then I'll have to take myself seriously," Angela said calmly. Then, she repeated monotonously, "Mr. Rosewell, it's time for the meeting.""Who the hell do you think you are, trying to tell me what to do? I already looked into you—you're nothing more than some woman Dexter married on a wh

"As the company's manager, Mr. Rosewell, you abused your power for personal gain and made unauthorized decisions to claim dozens of company-owned antiques for yourself. "This matter has already reached Eldmere City's police department, tarnishing our company's image. Therefore, you are fined 30 thousand dollars as a warning to others."The moment Angela finished speaking, everyone was in complete shock.A promotion followed by an immediate fine—what kind of logic was that? What was the reason behind it?Felix's expression turned sour. He wanted to deny it, but too many people had already witnessed what had happened. A few words wouldn't be enough to make this go away. 30 thousand dollars? This crazy woman had gone too far! Angela had actually dared to walk all over him!Fuming, Felix immediately reported the matter to Dexter. Half an hour later, Dexter replied, saying that all company matters were now under Angela's control and he wouldn't intervene. Seething, Felix called Fion

Angela's response was firm. She carried herself with an air of authority that sent chills down people's spines.Felix shot her a hateful glare before turning and walking away.When Angela reached home that evening, from a distance, she spotted Felix arguing with Fiona at the entrance. He was pulling at her arm, talking animatedly.Angela parked her car by the side of the road and walked over. She could faintly hear the conversation between the siblings."Fiona, how could you let that brat get in my way? You have no idea how unreasonable she is! I worked so hard to grow the company into what it is today. The moment she arrived, everything fell apart!" Felix complained vehemently.Fiona retorted, "Have some self-awareness. If it weren't for Dexter explicitly turning a blind eye and letting you off, I would have kicked you out a long time ago. That company belongs to Angela now."If you still want to stay there, you better keep your head down. If you keep causing trouble for her, I

Mia frowned and said, "But… But what if it wasn't them? Forget it. You're right—it has to be them."Angela let out a deep sigh. "Right now, I'm just worried that they might move Leo somewhere else without even telling Zayn. They might even act like nothing ever happened."Mia's legs gave out, and she nearly collapsed to the ground."Don't panic. I'll ask Dexter for help. We'll monitor all the train stations and airports in Eldmere. There's no way they'll get past us!" Angela said.Without wasting a second, she called Dexter.The moment he heard what had happened, he immediately mobilized his men to set up checkpoints at every critical location as Angela had suggested. He even personally went to the airport to oversee the situation.To their surprise, their plan proved effective in about an hour. They intercepted Leo and the men who had taken him at Eldmere Airport.Angela and Mia rushed over as fast as they could. When they arrived at the VIP lounge, they saw Leo along with two

Growing tense, Mia quickly nodded. She was just about to leave when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of her eye.A sudden chill ran down her spine. It was Zayn!He wasn't alone. Florence was there, and surprisingly, so was Layla.At that moment, Angela also sensed something was wrong. Following Mia's gaze, she spotted Zayn sprinting toward them as if he were running a 50-meter race.Even from a distance, they could see how much force he was exerting to get to them, as if he were terrified that if he were even a second too late, Mia and Leo would vanish before his eyes.Damn it! How did they get here so fast?"Mia, don't you have something to say to me?" Zayn demanded, his voice low and laced with accusation, before he even came to a complete stop.It had only been a few days, yet he seemed to have lost so much weight that he was almost unrecognizable. His eyes were dull, and he looked lifeless.Just then, he spotted his son—the baby Mia had giv

Gritting her teeth, Mia spat, "Zayn, if you have even a shred of conscience left, let me leave and stay out of our lives!""It isn't like that. It's not…" Zayn was in visible agony as he was accused by the woman he loved.His face contorted in pain, but at this moment, there was nothing he could do except offer meaningless words in his defense."Ha!" Angela let out a cold laugh, her eyes filled with mockery as she looked at this spineless excuse of a man. "Are you a child? Don't tell me you're still holding on to your mother's apron strings."You're just a mama's boy who only knows how to obey his mother. Mia must have committed some serious sins in her past life to be stuck with a pathetic excuse of a man like you in this one. I feel embarrassed on your behalf!"Zayn flinched as if Angela's words had physically hurt him. He abruptly stood up, his eyes filled with desperation. "Angela, please don't say that. You have to help me—I truly care for her. I'll take responsibility as a
