âAs for why I want to take over the Clark family business, you are well aware of what you did twenty years ago. I know I canât find any evidence now, and even if I could, it is beyond the limitation period for legal prosecution. But I can use my own ways to seek justice.â
Jacob Clark was shocked by what he heard. A year ago, when Enna mentioned something similar, he suspected that she knew about his actions all those years ago.
Now, bringing up the past confirmed his suspicions â she knew about what he did at the hospital!
But how had Enna found out about this secret?
If Enna really knew about what had happened in the past, thenâ¦
Jacob Clark, clinging to his final shred of hope, furrowed his brow and berated, âWhat are you talking about? I have no idea what I supposedly did twenty years ago! Enna, donât just believe any rumors you hear. I know youâve been brooding over your motherâs death, but I canât change the past. Your motherâs death had left me very heartbroken too. Why canât you understand that?â
He was heartbroken too?
A cold-hearted man saying he would be heartbroken?
This must be the biggest joke Enna had ever heard!
Having done such a heinous act and still pretending to be affectionate â who was he trying to fool?
âYou were so young back then. I risked divorce with Auntie May to bring you home. In all these years, have I ever mistreated you? I know, Jasmine has a better life than you, but itâs not my fault. I am so busy with work, I canât always take care of you.â
âEnna, even if youâre angry with me, you shouldnât have taken over the company without a word. Do you know how much Iâve sacrificed for the company? Youâll cause a huge loss with your actions. Listen to me and stop the takeover now!â
âWe have misunderstanding, Iâll explain to you. Iâll make up for the lack of care when you were younger. Just stop the takeover.â
Towards the end, he didnât seem to notice himself slipping into a commanding tone.
While he failed to notice, Enna, however, picked up on his authoritative undertone. She looked at him scornfully as if watching a one-man show, quietly waiting for him to finish.@@novelbin@@
Jacob Clark rambled on until he noticed that Enna was silent. He slowed down upon seeing her scoffing look, âEnna, please be understanding. Iâve never asked you for anything. This time, Iâm begging you, stop causing trouble. Can you ask the bank to halt the takeover?â
After making sure he was done, Enna finally straightened up and barely glanced at him, âAre you done, President Clark?â
ââ¦â Jacob Clark furrowed his brows, having a vague feeling that he was going to be rejected.
âNow itâs my turn to talk.â She sat upright, put her hands on the table and stated calmly and efficiently, âIâm not going to beat around the bush with you, I will not stop the takeover of the Clark Familyâs business, itâs a done deal!â
âBesides taking over the Clark, I will also reorganize the Board of Directors. When the time comes, you wonât be part of it. Also, I will relentlessly take over and suppress your other businesses until you have nothing left!â
All those years ago, Jacob Clark had acted heinously out of greed, now, she would strip him of everything!
Nothing could cause greater pain for a person like him than losing everything!
Since he still failed to realize his wrongdoings, she will slowly help him understand!
The Clark family business is hers to claim!
