Written Off as Trash, I Activated My Hidden Queen Mode novel Chapter 459

In just ninety days, the empire Felix had spent a lifetime building had been dismantled by the very son he trusted most. Felix looked as though he had aged twenty years.

"You're a monster, Jasper," Amber rasped.

She sat in a wheelchair, a gaunt shadow of her former self. The love that once filled her eyes had been entirely replaced by a bitter, hollow hatred.

Jasper let out a cold, sharp laugh. He walked toward the sofa and took a seat as far away from them as possible. "A monster?" He smirked, a look so frigid it sent chills down their spines. "I'm just getting started."

Amber opened her mouth to snap back, but the words died in her throat.

"What else could you possibly want?" Felix hissed through gritted teeth.

"Bring her in," Jasper commanded.

Michelle was shoved into the room and thrown onto the floor at Felix's feet. Amber's face went deathly pale.

"Does she look familiar?" Jasper asked.

Felix squinted, confused by his son's game.

"Allow me to introduce her," Jasper said. "This is Michelle, your long-lost first love."

Felix stood frozen.

"To ensure her own daughter could take her place as the rightful heiress of the Moore family, she kidnapped my sister and left her for dead," Jasper continued, his voice dripping with contempt. "This is the woman you adored, Felix. She pawned off another man's daughter on you just to get a share of your fortune, then faked her own death so she could live it up under a new identity. Quite the lifestyle, wouldn't you say?"

Jasper sneered, then gathered a stack of documents and hurled them into their faces.

"She destroyed my sister, she destroyed my mother, and now she's trying to destroy Nicole. Tell me, Felix—after being used like this, are you just that stupid, or just that 'devoted'?"

Felix stared at the scattered photos and documents, his expression one of pure disbelief.

"Sign the divorce papers," Jasper ordered. "Don't let your existence insult my mother's memory any longer."

Felix collapsed inward, trembling as the reality set in. "How can this be? It wasn't supposed to be like this... this isn't right..."

Jasper stood to leave. He paused at the door and looked back one last time at the three of them, now clawing and screaming at one another in a desperate heap. He smiled, but it was a smile filled with profound, aching sorrow.

"Jasper, don't go!" Felix cried out. "The Moore Group—take it. It was always meant for you. We can still be a family."

Jasper turned back, his gaze icy. "You're the one who destroyed this family. Aside from my legal obligation to provide for you, we are nothing to each other. I'm taking the Moore Group, and you can spend the rest of your life repenting in a mental hospital. As for your first love and her daughter—I have more than enough ways to ensure they rot in prison for human trafficking."

Terrified by the raw hatred in Jasper's eyes, Felix stumbled backward. He couldn't understand how it had come to this.

He had only asked his son to break up with a girl; how had it ended with his family shattered and his life in ruins?

Their father was guilty, but Mark wondered if this was going too far.
