Even Zoey’s parents, standing right in front of her, were startled by the twisted look on her face.

“Zoey, don’t get this angry. Be careful with the injury on your foot,” Eileen reminded her from the side.

Zoey’s face darkened. Then her gaze fell on her parents as she said, “Dad, Mom, in two days, it’ll be time to put Nella on trial. When that happens, you have to refuse any settlement. We must make Nella lose her job and ensure she can never work in the medical field again. Otherwise, we’ll sue her into the ground.”

Hearing this, Norris frowned deeply. “But Alfred will definitely stand on Nella’s side. If we refuse to settle, won’t that mean we’ll offend Alfred?”

Zoey let out a cold snort.

“Alfred was only briefly fooled because he personally saw Nella performing surgery on Patrick that day. If he finds out Nella’s medical skills are lacking and that she nearly got Patrick killed, there’s no way he’ll cover for her without asking what really happened.

“And besides…”

Zoey looked at her parents. “If Alfred really tries to shield Nella, we’ll secretly blow this up. Even for the sake of the Keywood Group’s reputation, Alfred won’t protect her. And maybe…”

At that, a scheming smile spread across Zoey’s face.

“To protect the Keywood Group’s reputation, Alfred might even divorce Nella to cut ties.”

“Is that … really possible?”

There was hesitation on Norris’s face.

“Oh, stop being so cautious. I think Zoey’s plan is great.”

Eileen shot Norris an annoyed look.

“The Keywood Group is such a huge corporation. Of course, they care about their reputation, especially Regis. Back then, the Keywoods agreed to let Nella marry in because she was highly educated and worked as a doctor at Apex Medical. It looked good.

“But if the whole internet finds out Nella was negligent and nearly caused someone’s death, the Keywoods would be humiliated.

“This isn’t our fault either. Alfred was the one who was so eager to announce to the world that Nella is his wife. That means everything about Nella, her actions and reputation, is tied to Keywood Group. To save face, the Keywoods will divorce Nella. And then…”

Eileen looked at her daughter and smiled smugly. “Withi Zoey’s relationship with Alfred, the position of Mrs. Keywood would naturally fall to her.”

By the end, Eileen’s eyes were practically glowing.

It was as if the title of the Keywood Group CEO’s mother-in-law was already waving at her.

Compared to the wild fantasies of the mother and daughter, Norris remained much more clear-headed.

“But if Alfred wanted to marry Zoey, he would’ve done it years ago. Why wait until now? If we blow this up and it backfires, we might even lose the Keywood Group as a supporter. By then, the bond between Zoey and Alfred might be gone too.”

As soon as Norris finished speaking, Eileen rolled her eyes at him.

“Listen to you talk, so lacking in ambition.”

“Back then, Alfred had no intention of getting married at all. Regis was the one who forced him. Nella was just lucky enough to catch the timing. Plus, she was Caleb’s student. The Keywoods had to give the Freds some face.”

The more Eileen spoke, the more convinced she became that she was right.
