She let out a cold laugh. “We’ve already cut ties. Can you stop bringing up this ‘family’ nonsense?

“Is guilt-tripping me the only way you know how to get by?

“I already told you, Jason’s offer is generous. How is that not a good deal?

“It’s easy for you to judge when you’re not the one suffering.”

Her gaze grew even colder. “And everything I eat, wear, or use has nothing to do with the Hammond family. It all comes from my mom.

“Good thing I still have my mom. If I had to rely on the Hammond family, I would’ve starved

ages ago.

“Go play happy family with your wife and daughter. Just stop coming around and making me sick. Can we just stay out of each other’s lives?”

She stood up and turned to Ian. “Dad, let’s go. I’m seriously disgusted.”

Ian stood up as well. “Alright.”

He gave Leo a long, hard look. “Leo, I never realized you could be this shameless.

“You want everything, but you don’t want to give anything in return? Are you dreaming or what?”

He added with a warning, “From now on, Ally is my daughter. If anyone dares to show up and bother her again, don’t blame me if I don’t hold back.”

With that, the two of them turned to leave.

Kevin blocked Alicia’s way. “Dad never meant for you to work for free. He just can’t handle you siding with the competition against us.”

He added, stressing his point, “If you want a cut of the profits, just say so. We can help you negotiate with the competition.”

Kevin thought, ‘Ally plays a huge role in that project. Even if she refuses to join us, she can’t just go and work with the competition.’

Alicia rolled her eyes. “Let’s get one thing straight-you guys are the outsiders now, not me.

“I wouldn’t even dare touch your so-called dividends. I’d probably have to lawyer up just to

“From now on, let’s see who’s really got the skills.”

She shot them a meaningful look. “And quit making plans about me.

“Otherwise, who knows-maybe I’ll just sell my six percent to one of the other big players.”

Leo shot up, furious. “Don’t you dare!

“Just try selling it and see what happens.”

That was the backbone of the Hammond family.

Alicia let out a mocking laugh and pulled out her phone, dialing a number.

The call connected almost instantly.

She said, “Mr. Harris, about that offer you made a couple of days ago to buy my shares-I’ve thought it over, and I’m open to discussing it.

“How about we meet up and talk it through?”

The person on the other end sounded delighted and agreed right away, suggesting they meet tomorrow and giving her an address and time.

Alicia replied, “Alright, see you tomorrow to discuss it in detail.”

She hung up and shot Leo a cold look. “So, Mr. Hammond, what do you think? Do I have the guts or not?”

She gave him a half-smile. “If Mr. Harris buys my six percent, plus all those scattered shares he’s been picking up, and with his people backing him, he might end up with just as much power in the company as you,

“Unless your three sons hand over their shares to you, then who knows who’s really going to be running Hammond Group,”

She was curious to see if Kevin and his brothers would really hand over their shares to Leo.

Back then, all they cared about was getting her to sign her shares over to Nicole.

After all, she wasn’t a Hammond anymore.

Leo never expected Alicia would really dare to pull this off, and now it looked like she was about to sell her shares to the major shareholder in the company.
