A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 836

Chapter 836 

Jennifer’s words were just a fit of anger. However, Jaxton had a plan in mind. 

Due to his lack of capability, even though he was the boss’ son, he couldn’t 

take charge of the company. He was always waiting for Sebastian to retire so 

he could inherit the company. 

Not only that, but he had been suppressed at home for a long time. At the 

age of thirty, he was still restrained like a child. He had been waiting for too 

long to become the true head of the family. 

He knew the only way he could genuinely have a say in the family, and the 

company was if his father died. But Sebastian was only in his fifties, healthy 

and without any illnesses. No way would he die so soon. 

However, neither mother nor son could have anticipated that within half an 

hour, they would receive devastating news. 

“This is the Yeringham Traffic Police. Is this Jennifer Burke, the wife of 

Sebastian Oatley?” 

“Huh? Yes, that’s me!” 

Receiving such a phone call suddenly made Jennifer’s heart sink as a feeling 

of extreme foreboding washing over her.. 

“I am here to inform you that Mr. Sebastian Oatley had a car accident on 

Yeringham Outer Ring Road 3. Unfortunately, he collided with a small truck 

and has been confirmed dead.” 

“W-What?!” 

Jennifer dropped her phone to the ground in shock. 

Jessica also covered her mouth in anguish, tears streaming down her face. 

Was their family cursed?! Now, it seemed that their family would indeed 

come to an end! 

Jaxton’s expression was also one of pain and complexity. Yes, he wanted to 

become the head of the family sooner, but he didn’t wish for his father to die 

now. 

Meanwhile, at the scene of the accident on Outer Ring Road 3, A black Corolla 

passed by. 

While driving, Blake shook his head and sighed. “The Oatley guy died pretty 

tragically. He wouldn’t have to die if he had just agreed to you.” 

Magnus smiled bitterly. “What does it have to do with me? You know well that 

I never laid a hand the entire time.” 

At that, Blake laughed heartily. “Don’t act coy in front of me. You let Verkade 

leave the hospital early, which means you anticipated Sebastian Oatley’s 

refusal, right? Now that he’s dead, his son will definitely willingly become your 

pawn!” 

Magnus continued to smile bitterly. “You make it sound like I’m the son of a 

devil!” 

Blake guffawed in response. “You’re not the son of a devil; you are the devil! 

But don’t drag your father down with you. He’s much kinder than you!” 

Magnus shook his head, smiling without saying a word. 

On the other side, Emmanuel drove him and his sister to Cloudscape Mall, 

which contained a struggling branded clothing store owned by Felicity until 

Emmanuel acquired it for Roselyn for two million. 

They went to check the place out that day. The store’s physical facilities were 

decent, and the clothing suppliers were reliable. It was the lack of effective 

management that had led it to be barely surviving. 

Nevertheless, Roselynn had great confidence that she could turn it around. 

“Manny, where did you get the money for this acquisition? It couldn’t have 

been a half-gift, half-sale from the Quillens, or even free, right?” Roselynn 

continued to ask her brother for details in the car. 

Emmanuel was about to answer when his phone suddenly rang. 

After seeing that it was Sage calling, he answered it immediately, believing it 

must be important. 

“Hey, Emmanuel! I did some digging, and your sister’s father-in-law is 

Sebastian Oatley, right?” 

“That’s right. Why were you digging?” Emmanuel asked in return, 

subconsciously feeling ominous. 

“He had an accident on the Yeringham Outer Ring Road 3…” 

Roselynn was by his side, and she noticed that her brother’s expression 

turned visibly odd after he finished the call. She quickly asked, “Manny, what 

happened?” 

Emmanuel didn’t want to hide it from his sister and said directly, “Your 

father-in-law, Sebastian, had a car accident. He’s reportedly passed away 

on the Yeringham Outer Ring Road 3!” 

“What?!” Roselynn was deeply shocked. Aren’t we just close by?!
