After Rebirth She Strikes Back (Simone) novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123

After leaving the Webster family, Simone got word that Irwin Group was holding a shareholders meeting, and Nolan was going to be there.

Simone couldn’t shake a bad feeling. Not daring to waste a second, she rushed straight to Irwin Group, When she arrived, she saw Cyrus in the middle of signing the contract to step down as president

She caught sight of the scene from the doorway, her face instantly changing. She dashed over and snatched the pen right out of Cyrus’s hand.

“Simone, what are you doing here?” Cyrus was surprised to see her, but even more embarrassed–having her see him like this was humiliating

Simone sayed d calm. She looked straight at Cyrus and said, enunciating every word. “You can’t sign this”

Cyrus reached out and patted her head, forcing a bitter smile. “Simone, you’re still too y for me to step down. If I don’t sign, the company will go bankrupt

“I said you can’t sign, and that’s final. Simone’s eyes were full of determination, and even if she didn’t realize it herself, her concern for Cyrus was obvious.

Nolan watched the whole thing, finding it an eyesore. He and Cyrus were never going to get along, and Simone was everything he’d done to Cyrus, she probably hated him now.

Nolan’s eyes darkened. “Simone, if you stick with Cyrus, life’s only going to get harder. Why not come with me? Everything I have will be yours.” He pressed his lips together, not daring to meet her eyes, afraid he’d see only disgust or hatred there.

Simone wasn’t sure where she stood with Nolan anymore, so her tone turned cold. As long as I’m here, Cyrus will never have to suffer.”

Cyrus felt a rush of warmth in his heart at her words.

Nolan froze. Simone used to be so close to him, always sweet and affectionate with him. But now, he could only feel the distance and coldness in her voice–she really seemed to dislike him

Realizing this, a trace

a trace of loneliness flashed in Nolan’s eyes. His heart ached, and his hands stiffened on the arms of his wheelchair.

Simone didn’t notice the shift in their moods. Seeing how crowded the meeting room was, she hurriedly said, “You two, come with me. With that, she led the way out

Even though Cyrus and Nolan were still confused, they had no choice but to put aside what they were doing and follow her out. The three of them ended up in Cyrus’s office.

Once inside, Simone didn’t waste any words. She went straight to the computer and played a video showing Nolan’s personal driver messing with the brakes on his car.

Cyrus and Nolan had no idea what she was getting at, but the moment they saw the footage, their faces changed. That was the exact car Nolan had been driving the day of his accident years ago, and they recognized it instantly.

Both of them stated seriously at the sneaky figure in the video. “Who is that?” they asked by the same time.

Simour didn’t answer

t answer directly. “Uncle Nolan, I think you’ve already guessed, haven’t you?”

Nolan immediately shook his head. “No way Leonard’s been with me for over ten years–he even saved my life when I was a kid. There’s no way he’d betray anc

Simone pulled out a few of Leonard’s daughter’s medical records. “Uncle Nolan, I’m guessing he never told you his daughter was born with a heart

condition, did her

“That’s his family business I never get involved, Nolan replied, looking a bit surprised. He really hadn’t known, but he didn’t think there was anything wrong with that

“Even before your accident, there were already money transfers between Cordell and him. His daughter needed money for treatment and had been waiting for a sunable heart for years, but nothing ever canye up

“Bus on the very morning you had your accident, his daughter happened to get a matching heart. Don’t you think that’s too much of a coincidence?” As Simone spoke, she pulled out the printed bank records of transactions between Cordell and Leonard.

“Cordell? How could it be?” Nolan stared at the bank statements, his face darkening. Cordell was his childhood friend, the only one who still kept in touch after his accident

Nolan gripped the printouts tightly, his expression looking absolutely terrible. The truth was harsh, but he couldn’t stay in the dark forever.

Chapter 123

Simone plugged in a USB drive and played the final video–surveillance footage from Cordell’s study. In the video, Cordell was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, and right next to him was Leonard.

Condell looked at Leonard with a hint of approval in his eyes. “You did a great job. This is your reward,” he said, pushing a box full of cash toward

Leonard.

Leonard didn’t take the money right away. He looked at Condell, his voice strady. “All I want is for my daughter to get a matching heart. I don’t want your money.”

Cordell suddenly laughed, Leonard, what are you saying? Your daughter’s
