Back in university, among all the men who pursued her, Leah couldnât help but wonder why she had chosen the seemingly useless Billy Anstey. Perhaps it was solely because his family had some assets, and she had tricked him into falling for her.
Over the years, while Leah observed the other men thriving in their careers, Billy struggled to maintain Anstey Group and lacked the courage to expand its business territory.
âLeah, were you playing me from the beginning?â Billy asked indignantly.
With her hands handcuffed, Leah disdainfully brushed aside the hair on her forehead and replied softly, âYes, nothing happened between us that night.â
Billyâs pale face, already drained due to his diarrhea, turned even paler as he murmured in disbelief, âWhy me?â
âBecause youâre a fool with money!â Leah boldly revealed her true intentions to Billy.
âI really didnât expect you to be this stupid! Look at yourself. How could such a naive son come from clever parents like yours?â Leahâs expression was full of contempt as she fearlessly continued. âLiliane doesnât know her true identity yet. If you keep it hidden, you still have a daughter. But if you reveal the truth about her identity, you will have nothing!â
Enraged, Billy pounded the table and shouted, âIâve raised your daughter with Shane for over 20 years.
Why do I still have to be a saintly father?â
âAnstey, you can go and tell Liliane now,â Leah arrogantly declared, as if she had complete. control of the situation. âBut let me tell you a fact. The moment Liliane learns about her true identity, there will be no more Anstey Group in this world.â
Confused, Billy furrowed his brow and asked, âWhat do you mean?â
âYou gave the Anstey Group to Liliane as her wedding gift.â Leah smiled charmingly and slowly revealed, âI wonder if that illegitimate daughter of yours will take care of you when you have nothing.â
At that moment, Billy remembered Leah had been constantly nagging him about the Warner familyâs vast wealth and business empire before Lilianeâs wedding. She had easily persuaded him to transfer all his assets to Lilianeâs name.
âLeah, I transferred my assets to Liliane on the condition that sheâs my daughter. Since sheâs not, then I have every right to take back everything. Iâm not locked up here like you, and Liliane is sick. I have plenty of time to deal with both of you. Moreover, Iâll turn your story into a TV drama and movie for everyone to watch for free. Iâll make you and your daughter infamous!â
Leah couldnât believe that Billy, who had always been an honest person, would show such determination. She angrily pointed at him and exclaimed, âHow dare you!?â
âWhy wouldnât I dare?â Billy, provoked by Leahâs shamelessness, turned aggressive. âLiliane is not my biological daughter anyway. Even if she dies, itâll be your retribution for your evil deeds!â
Leah pointed at Billy and cursed furiously, âAnstey, if you dare to harm my daughter even the slightest bit, Shane will not let you off!â
âDonât worry. I wonât give him the opportunity to mess with me. Iâll report him for engaging in improper relationships now! Tell me, when you and your daughter damage his career, will he choose his own future or you and your daughter-
Before Billy could finish speaking, his phone beeped. He turned on the screen and saw a local news article. As he read the content, he suddenly burst into laughter.
âLeah, your adulterous partner has been reported and is now locked up! Should I use my connections to ensure you become a miserable pair of prison lovebirds?â
