Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 812

Smack!

The vicious slap came directly from Sean.

The room fell into a deathly silence. Nobody dared to cross him.

Sean’s predatory gaze swept over the crowd. “Let me make one thing crystal clear today. My relationship with Elena is entirely professional. She never seduced me. She is my savior. Everything I have achieved, I owe entirely to her!”

The crowd was utterly baffled.

What was Sean talking about?

Elena was his savior?

“To put it simply, Elena is the true mastermind and owner behind Aurelis Holdings Group. I am merely her employee. You absolute fools. The Whelan family deserves every bit of the ruin coming its way!”

The faces of Edward and Gavin’s families turned an awful shade of grey.

They exchanged horrified glances, unable to process the bombshell.

The owner of Aurelis Holdings Group was Elena!

“Mr. Maddox, are... are you telling the truth?” Old Mrs. Whelan asked, struggling to comprehend the reality.

“Why would I lie? Why else did you think I attended your eightieth birthday? I only showed up out of respect for my boss. If you hadn't been so biased and unjust, your family wouldn't have ended up in this pathetic state!”

Old Mrs. Whelan stumbled backward, barely managing to stay on her feet.

She looked at Elena, taking a shaky step forward as if to say something.

“Elena...”

But Elena cut her off immediately. “Save it. I came here today solely to teach Cathy and Jane a lesson. Let this be a warning to them to keep their heads down. Don't test my patience again, or I’ll forget we ever shared a name and wipe the Whelan Group right off the Cresden City map!”

Now, the bridge with Elena was entirely burned to ash, with zero hope of reconciliation.

The losses the Whelan family had suffered... were beyond calculation.

-

“Sean, what are you doing here?” Elena asked as they walked.

“I knew you were heading to the Whelan estate, and I figured there would be trouble, so I followed you. Boss, if they keep disrespecting you like this, do you want me to step in? I can bankrupt them and run them out of Cresden City for good.”

“No need. For the sake of our shared last name, there’s no reason to be overly vindictive. Edward and Gavin are completely incompetent when it comes to business. They could never expand the company anyway. Just holding onto the old man’s legacy is a struggle for them. It’s a shame he passed so early, because they’ve already squandered most of what he built. Bankruptcy is just a matter of time. We don't need to get our hands dirty and earn a ruthless reputation.”

“Understood, Boss. Whatever you say!” Sean said, looking at Elena with profound admiration.

A bright, undeniable gleam of respect shone in his eyes.
