Seven Years of Marriage with Jake novel Chapter 42

Chapter 6

Philip finally couldn't sit still.

"Helen, how did you get the largest share? And how did you make those old fools support you to become the chairman?"

"You're nothing but an ignorant little girl! What ability do you have to control the company? I don't accept this! Let me tell you, Helen, as long as I, Philip, am here for one day, you won't be able to sit comfortably in that chairman's position!"

His eyes were full of anger and unwillingness.

His bloodshot eyes stared at me, seemingly wanting to swallow me whole.

I smiled. Helen indeed didn't have this capability, but Julia did!

"Big brother, you probably don't know yet? I was able to become chairman so smoothly all because of Dad's support."

"If it weren't for the 5% shares he transferred to me, how could I have become the largest shareholder?"

"What? That's impossible! He clearly told me that those shares were reserved for me. It's impossible that he would give them to you!"

"But he did give them to me, not to you..."

Before I could finish speaking, Philip had already left the office, running so fast it caught me off guard.

Sebastian could never have imagined that the shares he sold out for his son would end up in my hands!

Early the next morning, news of Sebastian's sudden illness and death shocked me.

Just died like that?

I returned to the Parker house. The mourning hall was already set up, they moved quite fast.

I heard it was triggered when Philip confronted him. Due to emotional agitation, by the time the ambulance arrived, he was already cold.

Philip and Sofia cried as if their lives depended on it in front of e v e r y o n e .

As Sebastian's beloved daughter, I called the police in front of everyone, demanding to investigate the truth for my father.

This moved quite a few people present.

The police came, and for once, everyone in the Parker house gave a consistent statement.

I walked up to Philip, wiped the tears from the corner of my eye, held his hand, and looked into his eyes.

"Big brother, Dad left us too suddenly. He was with you when he passed. Did he leave any last words for us?"

Philip suddenly went mad, shaking off my hand.

Pointing at Sebastian's coffin, he started cursing loudly.

I raised an eyebrow slightly, revealing a barely noticeable smile.

I stood by, pretending to be panic-stricken.

"That old bastard Sebastian, he deserved to die! He said he'd leave the shares to me, let me become the company's successor.

But in the end, he gave everything to you, you little bitch! He left nothing for me!"

"He said I was useless, didn't he? Well, I killed him, took back all the shares that belong to me with my own hands!"

"Ah... Philip Parker! What are you saying?!"

Sofia screamed, interrupting his words, forcefully covering his mouth, looking around in shock and dismay.

I shifted my gaze, and Philip suddenly froze in place...

The nearby police officers looked at each other and directly handcuffed Philip.

I cried even harder, frantically beating Sebastian's coffin, cursing him for being so good to me, leaving me so many shares, yet dying himself.

Sofia looked at me in horror, her pupils visibly dilating.

Her whole body was trembling, her lips quivering along with it.

The muscles on her face twisted into a grimace, full of panic and hopelessness.

Seeing that the police and the crowd had left.

I patted my hands that had just touched the coffin, dusted off non-existent dust from my clothes, and turned to Sofia with a gentle smile.

Sebastian's shares naturally all fell into my name.

The charge of intentional homicide against Philip was established He went to confront Sebastian, they argued, and he took out the sleeping pills he had prepared in advance, already dissolved in water.

Claiming he was wrong and begging for forgiveness, he personally handed that glass of water to Sebastian, watching him drink it down.

Sofia came to me, taking out all her savings, begging me to save Philip.

I agreed and went to the detention center with Sofia.

Only a fool would refuse money.

"Helen, you have the nerve to come? It's all you! Everything was controlled by you! You killed Dad, killed Peter, and now you've sent me here!"
