I had never wanted to kill anyone more than I did at this moment.
Kill Kingsley Rowen, kill Madeline Johanson!
But then what?
If I killed them, I would lose my life, and my daughters would never return to their kind, obedient selves.
Besides, dying would be too easy for them.
I wanted them to suffer—alive, but wishing for death!
Kingsley Rowen's mocking voice cut through my thoughts: "Now that you've regained your memory, let's consider all past grievances settled.
I'll have Lawyer Peterson draft the divorce agreement soon. After that, we'll part ways, each free and happy."
I took a moment to calm myself before speaking calmly: "Although it's said that a bitch belongs with a dog, and that they'll last forever, I had considered blessing you both.
But now, I've suddenly changed my mind and don't want a divorce anymore! So, I'm still entitled to live here. You have no right to force me out!"
With that, I calmly sat down on the sofa.
Kingsley Rowen didn't expect me to react this way and was momentarily stunned.
At dinner, I took the seat of honor at the table.
The butler and servants stood in a row nearby, sneaking glances at me without daring to make a sound.
I looked at the dishes on the table.
"I don't like any of these dishes. Throw them away and redo them!"
Madeline Johanson was about to speak, but Kingsley Rowen stopped her.
Lucy Rowen, with a puffed-up face, said, "These are the dishes my sister and I like to eat. Let's see who dares to throw them out!"
Seeing that the butler and servants hadn't moved, I decided to dump the food myself.
"For the past three years, I haven't had one decent meal! Mr. Rowen, don't you think it's time you compensated me and made something I like?"
Kingsley Rowen gritted his teeth and forced out a smile that looked worse than crying: "Fine!"
I listed a few spicy dishes.
Celeste Rowen slammed her hand on the table a few times, saying, "We don't like these! We're going out to eat!"
Kingsley Rowen was about to get up when I said coldly, "No one is going anywhere! From now on, if any of you disobey me, I will expose everything that happened to me over these past three years to the media and ruin both of your reputations!"
Now that Kingsley Rowen was a boss, and Madeline Johanson was an executive in the company, the last thing they feared was having their reputations ruined.
The shareholders were all my father's friends, and when they saw me, they rushed to complain about the various misdeeds of Kingsley Rowen and Madeline Johanson. Even when they saw them, they didn't stop.
So what if the company was under his name?
My shares still made me the majority stakeholder.
The shareholders unanimously passed a resolution to expel Kingsley Rowen from the board.
I directly issued termination notices to them.
When they came to argue with me, they were stopped at the door by the security.
Through the door, I could still hear Kingsley Rowen's hoarse shouting.
"Emily Grayson, do you really think you have the ability to control me so easily?
Let me tell you, these past three years have been enough for me to plan everything out! You can't do anything to me. You simply don't have that kind of power!"
I couldn't help but sneer.
No ability, huh?
My father always told me not to anger anyone because once I did, I could tear them apart.
