Substitute Wife, Genius CEO novel Chapter 430

That was virtually identical to handing it all straight to Summer!

After all, Leo was only a child. Until he came of age, every single asset in his name would be entirely controlled by his legal guardian.

Lilith ground her teeth in sheer hatred, her fingers clawing into the bedsheets. Even after marrying Xavier, she hadn't managed to secure a single share of Sterling Group.

What gave Summer the right to get all of it?!

Lilith was consumed by envy and jealousy, but above all else, an overwhelming, suffocating wave of hatred.

Why?

Wasn't it said that if you just believed hard enough, you could have whatever you wanted?

She had believed so fiercely, worked so relentlessly to marry Xavier, to be his bride, to secure her place in the Sterling family.

But it was Summer who had married Xavier first, forcing her to be the mistress, reducing her to his second wife.

She had fought so desperately for this marriage just so she could be the untouchable wife of the CEO, towering above everyone else.

And yet, despite giving the Sterling family two sons, she hadn't seen a single share of the company, nor had she received a dime of the family's assets or a bridal fortune.

Meanwhile, Summer, the discarded ex-wife, was about to have a massive piece of Sterling Group dropped right into her lap without lifting a finger.

Sometimes, comparing yourself to others was enough to drive you insane.

Lilith genuinely couldn't fathom how she was losing to this woman.

They had equally stunning faces and similar figures. But Lilith was more educated and came from a far superior family background.

Lilith felt completely cheated by fate. She refused to accept it, refused to yield to destiny. She would fight this until her last breath.

Having dropped her bombshell, Summer waltzed out of the hospital room. Whatever chaos consumed the Sterling family next was none of her concern.

She had done it entirely on purpose.

She wanted to see if Xander would actually hold his ground against the family's inevitable pushback.

If he withstood their pressure and insisted on going through with it, Summer would agree to the adoption.
