The Mafia Heiress's Comeback: She's More Than You Think novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103 You And Bobby Can Catch Up Behi…

Both Ashton and Cullum were frozen in shock.

“Did I open the wrong file?”

In a fluster, Ashton shut the surveillance window, rechecked his settings carefully, then reopened the footage.

But the same sounds came through again.

Clearly, the feed was accurate.

Everything matched perfectly–the timestamp showed clearly it was moments after Maren had supposedly consumed the wine.

How had things spiraled out of control like this?

Ashton looked around, clearly puzzled, until his eyes found Maren. She sat there calmly, and that quiet confidence of hers made his stomach churn.

“Maren, are you aware of what’s really going on here?” Ashton and Cullum asked her simultaneously.

Suddenly, they both understood Dick’s absence might mean something far worse than a mere delay. Anxiety crept into them steadily, becoming impossible to ignore.

“Haven’t you noticed how familiar those two voices are?” Nadia reminded them. a

Cullum concentrated hard, brows knitted in confusion, until recognition flashed across his face.

“That’s Bobby’s voice! And the other one–it’s Dick!”

“What did you just say?” Ashton yanked Cullum by the shirt, desperation edging into his tone. “Listen again- you must be mistaken!”

Cullum looked startled and said slowly, “No, Dad. I’m pretty sure that’s exactly what I heard.”

“He heard correctly.” Maren said, stepping forward and unlocking her phone.

Earlier, she had used Bobby’s phone to record the entire thing, then synced it to her own.

As soon as the screen lit up, a video started on its own. It showed two naked men, tangled up in a storm of motion and heat.

One was unmistakably Bobby, the other, Dick.

They had abandoned all dignity, acting purely on instinct.

Nobody knew exactly how long the footage lasted, but by the end, filth was splattered everywhere–the couch,

floor, and even the coffee table.

The scene was disgusting beyond words.

“Ashton, how disgraceful! Is this how you raised your son?”

“This is outrageous! How sickening.”

“Ashton, your son needs serious discipline!”

A few shareholders threw up on the spot. Though most had seen plenty in their lifetimes, nothing had

prepared them for something this disgusting.

One by one, they rushed out of the office and headed straight for the restroom.

“What are you doing just standing there? Get Bobby out immediately!” Ashton shouted at Cullum, voice

cracking in panic.

“Yes, I’ll go right now!” Cullum’s face remained drained of color. He hurriedly wiped cold sweat as he dashed

from the room.

Only Ashton and Maren were left facing each other now.

Collapsing into his chair, Ashton felt his strength evaporate completely.

This was it—his downfall.

He had lost everything.

“How did this happen? It doesn’t make sense…”

Ashton sat motionless, thoughts racing to find answers.

Hadn’t Maren swallowed the drugged wine herself?

There was no denying what he’d seen. Dick had watched her lift the glass and take a sip. The surveillance audio

left no room for doubt.

So how did things twist around until Dick ended up tangled with Bobby instead?

The entire scheme had backfired. Instead of trapping Maren, Ashton now found himself utterly humiliated in front of everyone.

“So, are we ready to sign the contract now?” Maren asked, breaking the suffocating silence

Her calm, firm voice chilled Ashton to the bone.

“Maren, please, just let me explain!”

Fixing the past wasn’t on his mind anymore. Now, all he cared about was cleaning up the mess.

Ashton desperately needed to justify himself.

If Maren realized he’d been behind everything, he’d be utterly finished.

By tomorrow, the shocking scandal involving Bobby and Dick would dominate every headline, sending the Morgan family’s reputation and stock prices into freefall.

Every shareholder would despise him.

If Maren took control in the middle of all this chaos, he’d have no options left.

What he hadn’t realized was Maren’s role in orchestrating everything from the beginning, Her ultimate aim had always been his downfall.

“Go ahead,” Maren said graciously.

Ashton’s relief was short–lived. “Maren, I knew you’d understand-”

“You’ll have plenty of time for your explanations after signing.”

Ashton’s fleeting relief shattered in an instant at Maren’s blunt reminder.

“You wouldn’t do this, Maren,” Ashton pleaded weakly, unwilling to accept defeat.

“Enough. I’ve shown you enough patience. Delay signing once more, and you’ll find yourself explaining things

from inside a jail cell,” Maren said firmly. Reclaiming her rightful shares had already been dragged out far too

long. She’d make sure nothing obstructed her today.

But rather than surrender, Ashton lashed out instead. “You think you can throw me in jail?”

Certainly, he’d taken over Maren’s inheritance, but he hadn’t committed a crime worthy of imprisonment-

such a threat was outrageous.

He had always considered Maren worthless. Being reduced to this humiliation after years as head of the Morgan

family was intolerable.

“With this evidence,” Maren said sharply, holding up her phone to display the damning video once again.

Only then did the full reality hit Ashton.

“You knew everything from the start?”

Everything finally clicked into place. Ashton understood perfectly now.

He should have seen it coming from the beginning.

Maren had mapped it all out, catching on to his tricks well before he acted.

And now, the bitter taste of regret clung to the memory of him begging her for forgiveness.

“You worthless, spiteful girl! You’d really destroy your own brother? How’s he ever supposed to live in Baimsa again?” Ashton was furious, openly blaming Maren for his son’s disgrace.

Maren laughed coldly. “Is that so? When you came up with your filthy little scheme, did it ever cross your mind how I was supposed to walk around Baimsa after that?”

Ashton saw no fault in his actions. “Your reputation was already in shambles. Why would a little more harm

even matter?”

Maren, in his eyes, held no worth at all. He’d never even treated her as human.

“You’re absolutely right. And that’s why tomorrow morning, I’ll personally deliver this recording to the police. You and Bobby can catch up behind bars.”
