Chapter 840 The Collapse Of Evans Group
Jessica was taken aback.
When her approach failed, she simply knelt down by the door. “Cecilia, if you won’t let me in, then I’ll jus stay right here.”
“Suit yourself.”
Cecilia turned around and returned inside, where she then washed some fruit for herself. As she sliced the fruit, she ate it while lounging on the couch, browsing for new shows to watch.
Popular TV dramas allowed her to temporarily cast aside her troubles.
There wasn’t anything interesting on TV. After flipping through a few channels, Cecilia stumbled upon the
latest news.
The news reported that Evans Group experienced a significant drop in its stock price the week before. This week, it was revealed that the chairman, Ralph, had already sold all his shares. Now, Evans Group has been acquired by a new company, Imminence Corporation.
Imminence Corporation?
Cecilia found herself mulling over the name, feeling as though she had heard it somewhere before. However, she was unable to recall where exactly she did.
While she was still deep in thought, the ringing of the phone interrupted her thoughts.
Cecilia casually took the call, it was from Magnus.
“Sis, have you seen the news? Ralph’s company has collapsed.” Magnus seemed quite agitated.
After all, Ralph refused to help him rebuild Smith Corporation and even went so far as to constantly mock and humiliate him.
“I saw in
Upon hearing Magnus address her as ‘sis, Cecilia felt her emotions were in a tangled mess.
If what Paula had said was true, then he was not her brother at all.
“Ralph had the audacity to say I couldn’t run a company, yet his company got takeover by someone else. How laughable,” Magnus remarked. Then, he asked Cecilia, “Nathaniel, has the Evans family compensated you yet?”
“He compensated several hundred million.”
“That little? When 1 became part of the Evans family, I brought them at least five to six billion, not to mention your dowry… Magnus rambled on.
Upon hearing this, Cecilia couldn’t help but feel frustrated. “What’s the point of saying all this now? This is still all because of your foolishness.”
“I just did what Mom told me to. She used to say that Ralph was a good person and even claimed that I would inherit his wealth after his death. Who knew they would be so selfish, only caring about Cassandra?”
Magnus was furious as he continued, “A few days ago, Mom called me, claiming she’s really got cancer. She deserved it. Of all people, she really had it coming.”

I think the last chapters have some errors. It seems that some sentences are missing: For example, Queenie went to the hospital, but what’s happened a while before? Johnatan told Elliot that he shouldn’t been jealous of his young brothers, but it was not clear what happened before....
