Caroline’s POV:
When the news of my father’s death hit the Internet, it caused an uproar.
The next morning, Adam went to the company and presented a will that stated that my father had
transferred all his shares to his brother, Adam Wilson, before his death.
The minute I heard the news, I rushed to the company to confirm it.
"Hey, isn’t this Caroline? What are you doing here?"
Adam drawled with a grating smile, his body relaxing into the sofa in the chairman’s office without a
care in the world.
"I should be asking you this question.Why are you here?" I demanded as I stared him down coldly.
Adam leaned forward and retrieved a document from the table.
The next second, he flung the document at me, a self-satisfied smile on his face.
"Caroline, I suggest that you read that document carefully.But I will do you the favor of relating its
contents to you.When Edward was alive, he made a will and transferred all his shares to me.That
means that I now own majority of the shares in the Wilson Group.Simply put, I’m the chairman now."
While he spoke, I perused the document and found Dad’s signature on it.
The reason for their actions became crystal clear when I saw the signature.
Just for the sake of getting my father to sign this so called will, they had deceived him into using a drug
that made him mentally unstable.
My grip tightened on the document and I nearly tore it into pieces, but in the end, I refrained.
"Congratulations, Adam! Your wish has come true," I gritted out through clenched teeth.
"Thank you.As the chairman of the board, I now officially declare that you are dismissed from your post
as the CEO of Wilson Group.You can get out now," he declared condescendingly, an air of superiority
surrounding him.
Having expected such an announcement, I nodded shortly and left the company without any objection.
Adam’s POV:
Once I was able to send Caroline away from the company, no one dared oppose my rule.I entered the
office of the chairman of Wilson Group and sat on the new high back leather chair, sighing with
satisfaction.
This chair was customized in England.
It was said that this chair was the same model as the Queen’s.
It was really comfortable! What made me happier was the new title I got.
From now on, I was the chairman of Wilson Group and the whole company was mine! With a
triumphant smile, I slouched in my chair and tapped my fingers against the desk.
"I didn’t expect that Caroline would end up like this one day! Didn’t she always look down on me?
Today, I finally let her taste the feeling of being belittled, trod upon and discarded."
Nothing could topple the elation I was feeling right now Standing at me from his spot on the sofa,
Simon pulled a face at my statement.
"Adam, you have gotten what you wanted Let’s stop it here." frowning, I removed my feet from the
table, stood up and poured Simon a glass of Martell.
"Simon, you are not feeling sorry for Caroline, are you? After everything you have done for her, it
doesn’t seem like it makes a difference to her.She doesn’t care about you, so why are you still so
insistent on looking out for her?"
Simon picked up the glass and took a sip.His eyes were cold and indifferent when he looked at me.
"It’s my business.It has nothing to do with you."
With a shrug, I sat next to him on the sofa and placed my arm on his shoulder.
I shifted closer and whispered in his ear, "Simon, do you really want to stop now? It’s way too early! We
still have a lot we can accomplish together.If you stay here and help me, together we can defeat
Charles and get Caroline into your bed."
Sadly, my cajoling words had no effect on Simon.He stared back at me blankly before shaking off my
hand.He stood up regally and turned to appraise me with an ice cold stare.
"No, thanks.Edward is dead and I have avenged my father.As for Caroline, I will win her favor myself.I
don’t need your help."
Simon turned around and strolled out of my office without looking back.
Anger twisted my gut and I gritted my teeth as I watched his receding back silently.
With an angry snarl, I kicked the coffee table to vent some of my anger.
The coffee table toppled over from my kick and crashed against the floor with a loud piercing sound,
which only served to further irritate me.
"I only asked him to work in the company because I appreciated his abilities.And he dares to reject my
offer? What an ungrateful brat!"
The assistant came in and asked awkwardly, "Mr.Wilson, are we really going to stop?"
I slapped him on the head and sneered, "Stop? And wait for Charles to kill me?"
Although I had kicked Caroline out of Wilson Group and vented my anger, by doing so I had completely
offended Charles at the same time.I had no other choice but to continue on this route.
The next day, I sat in my office and enjoyed the wine leisurely.
In the chairman’s office, there was a wine cabinet that was filled with all kinds of precious wine Edward
collected over the years.
What felt like a lifetime ago, I used to salivate over these wines, but Edward was such a mean man that
he refused to give me even a bottle.
Now, all these were mine.
That cunning man must have never thought that I would someday find a way to defeat him.
The sound of someone pounding on the door repeatedly jarred me out of my introspection.
I frowned in displeasure and announced curtly, "Come in."
"Mr Wilson, bad news! Charles withdrew all the money! Without that money, Wilson Group has become
a shell of a company"
Even before she was fully in the room, Asta, the CFO, began yelling in a thun, high voice before I could
fully process the meaning of the things she was saying to me. She hunned towards me until she was in
front of my desk "What?"
My mouth gaped open as I stared at Asta in shock.
My glass clattered as it hit the table.I didn’t bother to check on the spilled wine is anger overrode my
shock.
"How did he do it? Can’t you do anything to stop him?" demanded gruffly, my mind racing. An
errabastected blush colored her cheeks and she lowered her head in shame before rasping in a low ,
"to prewout investment was to meet an emergency the company was facing at the time.Because of the
urgency of the situation, we didn’t take the time to sign a proper contract with him, so…"
The stilted words were like a bolt of lightning to my system.
I slumped into my fancy leather chair as my mind went completely blank.
For a long time, I existed in this floating space where I was a meaningless atom without any worries.
Of course Asta had to bring me back to reality with her whining.
"Mr.Wilson, what should we do next?" Asta asked nervously.
"Get out! Let me think it over."
I shooed her out of my office, the sinking feeling in my gut spreading.I rubbed my throbbing temple, a
wave of panic enveloping me.I had thought that with the money Charles transferred to the Wilson
Group and my management, the group would definitely be able to grow stronger.
But I had not been expecting this curveball Charles threw in my way.
My mind kept running around in circles, but I was unable to come up with any solution to this crisis.
While I was in this downtrodden state, Olivia stormed into my office in a flurry, her high heels clacking
against the floor loudly.
"Adam, you promised to give me a large sum of money once you over the Wilson Group.You are the
chairman now, so where is my money?’ succe nn Pasting a smile on my face, I got to my feet and
walked over to Olivia with a glass of wine in hand.
I pulled her into my arms and kissed her neck affectionately.
"Olivia, Charles has withdrawn his investment.This is not my fault, but Caroline’s.I’m certain that she
has instigated him into doing this.Didn’t you always say that she was just a brainless woman? So why
can’t you fix it yourself?"
Olivia pushed me away all of a sudden and wiped the place where I kissed.
The disgust on her face was undisguised.
"Get your dirty hands off me.Don’t touch me."
"Dirty?"
I sneered at her and threw what was left of my wine in her face.I stormed back to her and slapped her
face twice.
"Bitch, how dare you call me dirty? How clean do you think you are? You seduced me and begged me
to fuck you! All the women I’ve slept with have bigger breasts than you.They are prettier than you and I
am more comfortable when fucking them! Who the hell do you think you are? If you hadn’t been of
some use, I would never hook up with you! You think I’m dirty, don’t you? That’s because you’ve never
seen anything dirtier!"
Turning on my heel, I faced the door and shouted to get the attention of my bodyguards outside.
A second later, several bodyguards rushed into my office.
Olivia’s beautiful and delicate face turned red and swollen from the force of my slaps, and her split lip
Was stained with blood.
She bit her lips, tears streaming down.
Her eyes were full of hatred when she stared at me "Adam, you bastard! You can’t do this to me!"
I turned a deaf ear to her insults and ordered the bodyguards, "She is all yours now.You can fuck this
woman as you like Just make sure she’s alive after you’re done."
Eyes blank and unblinking at my order, the bodyguards as one turned their attention to Olivia and
advanced on her.
The hatred on Olivia’s face turned into panic.
She struggled to get up from the sofa and ran towards the door. The bodyguards pulled her back to the
sofa and bent over to tear her dress Olivia struegled and screamed desperately for help, but she was
no match for these people.
Her efforts only got her more punches. After a few minutes, I spat at her before leaving the office.
