PopularNovelChapter 1121 Mia was taken aback when she read the message about the divorce.
After all, everything had seemed fine just before.
In a flurry of worry, Mia immediately dialed Jasmine's number. "What exactly is going on?" she asked.
"Just a few days ago, there was this huge scandal about my father having an illegitimate daughter. When he found out, he immediately accused me of being the one who leaked it.
"1 tried to explain, but he wouldn't even listen. He ended up slapping me.
And to make matters worse, my mom walked in on the whole scene." There was a palpable weight in
Jasmine's words, as if she were grappling with a profound loss.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe continued, "After that, my mom couldn't take it anymore. She confronted my dad and decided to divorce him.
""So now, my mom and I are staying with my grandparents. And to add insult to injury, my dad has brought Luna and that little brat back home." Jasmine's words were accompanied by eyes filled with desolation, speaking volumes in their silent despair.
Indeed, Raymond's transformation had blindsided her completely.
It appeared that only daughters truly understood their mothers’ struggles, while men could only empathize with
the struggles of their own gender.
Mia, too, found herself caught off guard by the turn of events. "What's your plan now?" she asked.
"I suspect my dad will soon throw a welcome party for Asher at the Aide Castle Hotel. I have something special planned for them on that day," Jasmine revealed.
"What's your strategy?" "Don't worry, I won't push too far.
Since I haven't fully taken over the company yet, I still need my father around. Besides, I've already convinc ed my grandparents, so Luna won'tbea factor when the time comes," Jasmine reassured Mia.
Understanding Jasmine's approach, Mia continued, "But do you think your
mother will go along with this plan?" "My mother actually proposed an early divorce to divide the assets, aiming to protect me from any losses. However, I'm adamant about not allowing Luna and that little brat to inherit any of it.
"My mother earned every penny through her hard work, so why should these leeches receive a share? I certainly won't stand for it," Jasmine declared resolutely.
"Got it. I'll ensure someone keeps you updated on the banquet arrangements.
But Jazzy, there are certain matters where I can't lend a hand. After all, I am the owner of the manor," Mia said.
"understand. I won't ask for your
intervention, but I also won't pursue any alternative actions. Instead, could you assist me in brainstorming.a theme?" Jasmine proposed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"That's doable," Mia replied.
As Jasmine outlined her suggested theme, Mia couldn't help but sigh inwardly. It seemed the situation had taken a grim turn.
After ending the call, Mia turned to Peyton and instructed, "Begin investigating recent act ivities on Yellow Island. I've heard rumors about the Prime Minister's daughter being in Nord City. Find out what's happening." Mia couldn't shake the feeling that the residents of Yellow Island were up to something.
Their seemingly altruistic aid to Sharon in rescuing Ralph raised questions. It seemed unlikely they acted without expecting something in return.
Recalling Sharon's haughty demeanor at the banquet, Mia's expression hardened.
"Have the lawyer notify the authorities in Bern City," she ordered. "Inform them of Mrs. Barrett's departure from Bern City without valid reason and advise them to take appropriate action." Indeed, Sharon had overstayed her welcome in Nord City.
Had she forgotten that Mia had granted her only a brief period? Did she genuinely believe she could now wander without restraint?
As anticipated, Mia soon received an enraged call from Sharon. "Mia, you're the one who ratted me out, aren't you?" "Have you forgotten? I initially gave you just a week, yet here you are, still lingering after more than half a mont.
"And at the banquet, you even attempted to undermine me. Did you truly believe I have infinite patience?" "Hey, don't think that having Tim's backing gives you the right to be so arrogant!" Sharon retorted.
Upon hearing Sharon's words, Mia's gaze turned cold. "You've got it all wrong. I've never relied on Timothy for support. I've always been this bold.
"Don't you enjoy using power to intimidate others? Unfortunately, the Lane family holds sway in Nord City. | Even Timothy has to comply."
