An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth; a ruthless person should be handled by another ruthless person.
Jacqueline couldn't believe her ears when Leia requested to have her handed over.
Even if the Fordhams resented her to the bones, they upheld morality.
But Leia was different. She was the most cruel person among the researchers in Toxic Hive.
To make things worse, Jacqueline had a record of harming Avery and lying to her. Leia would never let Jacqueline off the hook that easily.
On top of that, Leia wouldn't show mercy when it came to the interrogation. Jacqueline was dead meat.
"No, Dad! Guys, don't hand me over to her for old times' sake. She's a monster!"
The Fordhams, who were hesitant at first, made up their mind when they noticed how much Leia feared Jacqueline.
Wearing a lifeless expression, Leia slowly walked up to Jacqueline.
Jacqueline attempted to escape, but Linus was quick enough to yank her back. The murderous intent loomed over her.
His towering stature and strong presence overwhelmed her.
With a single swing from him, her body hit the table, causing the documents to scatter on the floor.
Men were born physically stronger than women
Her back hurt so much that she couldn't speak.
Linus looked down at her. "Where are you trying to go?"
"I… I…" She couldn't say anything.
Suddenly, her arm stung. Leia had injected a syringe into her!
By the time Jacqueline realized what was going on, the liquid was injected into her body.
The Fordham family issue had also finally come to a temporary conclusion.
The family members were the only ones left in the meeting room.
David stretched out his arm toward Olivia, and she took his hand. "Dad."
"Sorry for letting someone else take your place for so many years."
She shook her head as she didn't mind it.
David passed a stack of documents to her. "These shares were supposed to belong to Jacqueline. They include part of my and your brothers' shares. I've drafted a share transfer agreement. When the agreement becomes effective, Fordham Group will belong to you."
Jaw going slack, she waved her hands. "Dad, I've never thought of taking over the company. Plus, I don't know much about it either. I—"
"Avery owns a lot of companies. He's in a bad state too. He needs rest. And you know Troy's condition. Sean has always disliked this kind of thing. This is not only to make up for you, but it's also rightfully yours. You're my daughter."
Then, David glanced at Ethan. "My daughter doesn't have to walk on eggshells for anyone. From now onward, you'll be the heir of Fordham Group. You can do whatever you want. No one can bully you."
