Annabelle Linton looked at William Chapman, her expression calm and composed. "President Chapman, you should think twice before you act."
"Give the agreent! I’ll sign it, I’ll sign it!" William Chapman yelled frantically, looking at Annabelle Linton with a terrified expression.
Everyone in the hall looked at each other in confusion, not understanding why William Chapman had such a drastic change of heart.
But only William Chapman himself knew what Annabelle Linton had said!
She had told him she had evidence of all his corruption and bribery over the past decade.
And he didn’t dare to doubt her words!
He knew better than anyone whether he had taken bribes!
And he knew even more clearly how many years he’d serve for the amount he had taken!
Don’t be fooled by the fact that everyone in the hall seed to be showing him respect; not a single one of them wasn’t there to watch him make a fool of himself!
If these people found out about his bribery, he would never see the light of another day!
Ryan Linton and Chase Lynch glanced at Annabelle Linton in surprise, wondering what thod she had used to make William Chapman change his mind so quickly.
Annabelle Linton watched coldly as William Chapman finished signing, her expression impassive.
After signing, William Chapman stumbled out of the room.
Annabelle Linton didn’t spare William Chapman a single glance. She picked up her wine glass and smiled. "Excellent. Then let everyone here today bear witness."
"From this day forward, I, Annabelle Linton, and my brother, Ryan Linton, have absolutely no connection to William Chapman! And from this day forward, William Chapman has no connection to my Linton Family."
"Now, let’s forget tonight’s unpleasantness and celebrate Ryan’s birthday, and celebrate the Linton Group and the Norwing Group becoming one family. Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
"Bravo, truly! The young lady of the Linton Family is so impressive!"
"She’s as capable as her maternal grandfather. The student has surpassed the master!" the guests in the hall complinted.
In truth, it wasn’t that Annabelle Linton was truly so capable, but rather that the Norwing Group was a great tree that cast a large shadow.
It’s nice and cool in the shade of a large tree. Everyone was just trying to curry favor with Chase Lynch.
Chase Lynch stared at Annabelle Linton’s distant yet perfectly composed face, and his mind wandered for a mont.
"Annabelle Linton, you’re really not like other won."
Annabelle Linton took a sip of her wine and gave him a faint glance. "Oh."
Annabelle Linton didn’t know.
In truth, in a corner of the grand hall, soone had been watching her with rapt attention.
Only after everything was settled did the person finally leave.
Leona Grant took a couple of steps, watching from within the crowd as Annabelle Linton’s face remained indifferent yet blood with a brilliant smile. In that mont, she couldn’t describe the feeling.
’Annabelle Linton, are we really about to get a divorce?’
...
「The next day.」
Chase Lynch officially took over the Linton Group.
Because there were people arranged in advance, the handover ceremony went very smoothly.
Annabelle Linton sat in the conference room watching Chase Lynch speak eloquently, feeling a little dazed.
’The fruits of several generations of hard work were gone, just like that.’
’In my last life, after the Linton Group was gone, all that awaited was endless indifference and contempt.’
’But in this life, I handed over the Linton Group with my own hands in a blaze of glory, taking the money we deserved, and no longer needing to live at the rcy of others’ whims.’
’Annabelle Linton, from this day forward, you will continue to be happy, won’t you?’
’Starting today, you can finally say goodbye to the past two decades of humiliation, right?’
’From now on, you will be just you. You will live for yourself. You will live a brilliant life.’
’You will be happy forever.’
The Linton Group was gone, but she believed Ryan would create a new group ten tis more powerful.
A smile couldn’t help but appear on Annabelle Linton’s lips at the thought.
Before the smile could fade from her lips, Annabelle Linton’s phone suddenly rang.
Annabelle Linton frowned and stepped outside to answer. Leona Grant’s voice, filled with unprecedented panic and anxiety, ca through the phone: "Annabelle Linton, sothing’s happened to Grandpa! Get to the hospital, quick!"
