Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison novel Chapter 455

“Wise up. Even if what you said today was true, do you think Robert’s going to prop you up as his savior afterwards? Can’t you see he’s devoted entirely to his wife right now? All you’ve done was to have him lighten his punishment of you a little at the most. Do you think he’s going to put you on a pedestal for saving his life? If you hadn’t done all this and said it outright, he might really develop some respect for you. But they’ve got proof now and he knows what you’re doing behind his back. You really think he’s going to look kindly upon you? How could I gave given birth to such a stupid daughter!”

Milton really did feel like his daughter was stupid. He’d never realized how oafish her methods had been.

If she really liked Robert, she could have just spoken up about her saving his life, then tried to get close to him.

But Eliana instead tried to deal with Georgia from the shadows, knowing that Robert loved her while still getting ghostwriters to slander her.

Forget that, she let them find evidence, and come to his own house for him to deal with her.

Every step she’d taken was dumb!

“What good as it going to do telling me all that, Dad? When my mother got into the stock shares, half of the Warner family’s stocks should be in my hands. And now you’re booting me out before Robert and stripping me of all my inheritance? You think your bastard sons out there are going to inherit it? Don’t even think about it!”

Eliana lost it with her own father as well. As she spat out her warning, Milton’s face changed.

“Did you think I wanted to expel you? Robert already told me before you came in that if I didn’t deal with it properly today, he’d cut all business ties between the Simpson family and the Warner family. It’s not just going to hurt the Warners, but other factories and companies are going to follow along. At that point all our stockholders are going to withdraw and no company’s going to work with us. Do you still think the Warner family can have it made?

“We’ll just go broke right away, and the stocks in your name will be nothing more than scrap paper. If you hadn’t started troubled out there, this wouldn’t have happened at all today. Get yourself home and stay there nice and easy. When the results come out tomorrow, you’d better beg Robert and admit to your mistake honestly with Miss Lane. Otherwise, even if I wanted to protect you, I’d have to see if Robert would agree!”

At that, Eliana hung her head and grew silent as Milton brought her back home.

Georgia and Robert had also driven home as well.

The two were silent all along the road, and while Georgia didn’t know what Robert was thinking, she was pondering something as well.

It was clear that Eliana had liked Robert from a long time ago.

She’d even tried to approach him slowly before and come together naturally. Probably during college. But it hadn’t succeeded.

Logically speaking, if Eliana had told him that she’d saved his life, the two’s relationship should have been closer and better.

But a year ago, Robert hadn’t mentioned it, which meant that Eliana had never spoken up about this before.

It didn’t fit her personality.

Georgia didn’t understand why Eliana was only speaking up about this when her back was against the wall.

It didn’t seem like she was lying. After all, the results were going to come out tomorrow at the latest.

Robert had already sent people around the Warner family, and he wasn’t going to let Eliana escape today.

Even if Eliana wanted to lie to delay things, it wasn’t possible either.

Thinking about it all, Georgia didn’t understand Eliana’s intentions.

When they arrived home, it was dark.

But they didn’t miss dinner, so they ate with Annie and Wesley.

Afterwards, husband and wife went with the children to playroom and played around with puzzles and all sorts of games. The night passed.

Before bedding down, Robert received a call from his secretary.

“Sir, I’ve already found a suitable home tutor. His background checks out. He grew up as in orphan in a simple environment. He’s currently a student at D City University studying for his master’s and his PhD all at once. He gets almost full marks in every subject. He was the first ranked in his year of public exams. If he was the tutor, he could teach every subject at once with no need to hire more.”
