Chapter 825
“It seems to me that the Bouchers are going to get destroyed in your hands. Yael has been hogging the position for more than 30 years. Don’t you think it’s time for someone to take over him like Michael?”
Helios chuckled and replied, “So? Are you going to use me as leverage to force my father to retire from his position?”
Tony smiled but did not say anything.
Barbara bit her lips and said, “You’re the one behind my uncle’s incident.”
Tony threw himself on the back of the couch and replied, “Well, honestly, he was a poor fellow. He overheard something he shouldn’t know in the Glitz Club and got caught.” Barbara’s face sank. Just as she expected, her uncle’s “death” was not an accident.
“It’s too bad that the Chases don’t have a son,” Tony continued as he studied
Barbara, “There’s nothing you can do since you’re a girl. You don’t belong to the Chases since you’re going to get married one day in the future.”
“Why can’t a woman sit in that position?” Barbara asked calmly. “Don’t
underestimate what we women can do.” “Do you know that Eric was my nephew?” Barbara froze. She clenched her fist so tightly that her nails had stabbed into her palm. “What!?”
‘Eric was his nephew?’
It was only now that the scale finally dropped before Barbara’s eyes. It was no wonder that Eric had the guts to do that to her despite knowing her identity. It was not because of his arrogance but because he had someone behind him.
“His mother is my biological sister. When our parents got divorced, I followed our father while she followed our mother.
We’ve never been in touch in all these decades.” Tony picked up a glass and smiled coldly,” I have to say that her son is a good-for-nothing. Other than indulging himself in eating, drinking, gambling, and frequenting the brothels, he knew nothing. Since I hadn’t married yet, I decided to nurture him myself. However, I didn’t expect that he would die in your hands. What a loser.” .
Barbara’s chest was heaving up and down rapidly. Although those things were in the past, she still couldn’t help herself but feel terrified when she learned some of the connections.
