Falling for a Lie: My Stepbrother's Hidden Revenge

Chapter 113

After a moment of silence. Sylvia said with a smile, “They'll have to pay for what they've done sooner or later,

and Edgar is no exception.”

Hearing this, Adrain finally heaved a sigh of relief.

She would get even with Edgar because of what had happened in the past, but she would not take revenge on

him because of Sarah.

Sylvia still cared about him, didn’t she?

Now, because she was only angry with him because of Sarah, he still had a chance to be with Sylvia!

After making up his mind, he stood up happily and said, “Don’t worry, Sylvia. I'll correct these problems. I'm

willing to wait as long as you need, then I'll be with you forever.”

After that, he left.

Sylvia held her forehead and was speechless.

It seemed that he still didn’t fully understand what she meant....

“Forget it. I'll explain it when | have a chance in the future,” she said to herself.

In the next few days, Jade claimed that she had to go to various construction sites every day and was almost

never in the office. Thus, she never cto report on the progress of her work to Yvonne again.

If Yvonne called to ask, Jade would just say that she was busy.

Yvonne was very unhappy with Jade's attitude.

If it weren't for the fact that she needed talents now, Yvonne would have lost her temper long ago.

Just as she was thinking, her phone rang. It was Mia.

“Mia, what's wrong?”

On the other end of the phone, Mia was extremely dissatisfied and complained.

“Why have | lost so much pocket money recently? | went shopping with two young ladies from the Barrow family,

but I didn’t have enough money on my card when | swiped it. How can | stay in my friend

circle in the future?”

Yvonne felt a little guilty.

Now that all the money in her hands had been invested in various projects by Jade, she could only quietly reduce

Mia's pocket money.

“Mom! You said before that you'd supportwith everything. How can you treatlike this...”

Yvonne had no choice but to comfort Mia with the words that Jade had told her before.

“Mia, the company has encountered sfinancial difficulties recently, and | had no choice. When everything

gets better, I'll double your pocket money. I'll buy whatever you want!”

“Then | want to launch a full set of limited edition skincare products!”

“Okay, okay, I'll buy all of them!”

After hanging up the phone, Yvonne was thinking of Jade.

Jade hadn't returned to the office to report the progress for a few days, nor had she made a phone call. Yvonne

kept feeling that her niece was hiding something from her.

Unable to feel at ease, she decided to call Jade again.

As soon as she took her phone, the door was suddenly pushed open by her assistant, Lily.

Yvonne was unhappy and glared at her. “Don’t you know how to knock on the door when you cin?”

Lily said anxiously, “Mrs. Fallen, bad news! LANBAG SE's construction team is making trouble. They're blocking

the gate of the building!”

“What?”

Yvonne slammed her fist on the desk and stood up in shock. “Why? Where are our security guards!”

“There are too many people here. There are more than a hundred people from the engineering team below. They

said that the project funds we agreed on have not been transferred to their accounts yet, and the person in

charge before has been dismissed by Ms. Jade! They had no choice but to chere for an explanation!”

Didn't transfer the money to their accounts?!

What about her money?

“What the hell is Jade up to?”

An extremely bad idea flashed through Yvonne's mind, and she was so scared that her face turned pale.

She didn’t believe that Jade would dare to do this to her! Jade was her niece!

In order to verify it, she dialed Jade’s number with trembling hands.

Yvonne was waiting for the call to go through.

The ringtone was heard, getting closer and closer.

It seemed to be... coming from outside the door?

Lily also noticed that the door was open. Just as she was about to open it completely, a pair of slender hands

opened it from the outside.

Jade, gorgeously adorned, wearing a colorful gown, and followed by a man dressed as a lawyer, walked in.

Seeing that she was not in a hurry and even deliberately dressed up, it was obvious that she was well prepared.

Seeing that the atmosphere wasn’t right, Yvonne's assistant, Lily, snuck out of the office.

In the office, Yvonne was so shocked that her eyes turned red.

Jade was amused by her expression.

“Auntie, | haven't seen you in a few days. Did you missso much?”

Yvonne gritted her teeth and still had a glimmer of hope in her heart. “Jade, why didn’t you pay the LANBAG SE

project workers? What have you been doing these days?”

“Didn’t you guess it just now?”

She walked to the chair opposite Yvonne with a smile and sat down. “That's right, | didn’t take out a penny of the

88 billion dollars. | asked the financial department to transfer it to my account quietly. By the way, at least half of

the company is mine now.”

“You! How dare you!”

Such a large sum of money had been pocketed by Jade?!

Was it part of her plan to replace more than half of the company with her people?

Yvonne was so angry that she slipped into the chair in pain. “How could your father indulge your shameless

behavior? Or are you hiding it from him?”

Jade sneered and said, “Auntie, have you forgotten that my father is not in charge of my family? But he

16:41

still supportsin this matter. You put on airs as soon as you married into the Fallen family. Do you think he

doesn’t hate you?”

Yvonne's family background was not very good. Back then, she had relied on her campus relationship and her

academic qualifications to marry into the Fallen family.

Yvonne's brother, James Lee, was not so lucky. He took a fancy to the daughter of the Evans family. But because

of his family background, he could only marry into the Evans family but could not even have a child with his

surname.

Yvonne was so angry that she had a heart attack. She clutched the clothes on her chest tightly to help herself

breathe.

“You stole so much money from the Fallen Group. What do you want?”

Jade smiled and raised her hand to signal the lawyer to step forward.

The lawyer met the suspicious gaze of Yvonne and put a contract on the desk.

Yvonne took it, opened it, and looked at it. “Jade Evans! How dare you want to take charge of the Fallen Group!”

“How can you say that?”

Jade smiled awkwardly and continued, “Auntie, take a good look. I'm willing to buy the management rights of the

Fallen Group for 10 billion dollars. You don’t know how to run it at all. | think it’s better forto run the Fallen

Group.”

10 billion dollars?!

Yvonne gritted her teeth. It seemed that the Evans family really supported Jade. On the basis of 88 billion dollars,

the Evans family gave her 12 billion dollars.

“Oh my god! This is my family! My biological brother and niece!”

Yvonne was so angry that she couldn't speak. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, “In your dreams!

The Fallen Group is a shareholder system! The biggest shareholder is my son! If you want to buy the Fallen

Group, ask him first.”

“I've sent someone to find my cousin. He has been missing for so long. | guess he died outside.

“I've also sent out Greg Fallen. Tsk tsk, so only you, Edgar's mother, can make decisions on his behalf.”

“You!” Yvonne was filled with grief and indignation.

Only then did she figure out Jade’s plan. First, Jade lured her into selling her shares and mortgaging her

16:41

Chapter 113

house, and then she would get a huge sum of money to destroy the Fallen Group. After that, she would get the

whole Fallen Group.

Seeing that Yvonne remained silent, Jade beca little impatient. “Auntie, it’s useless to delay it any longer.

Why don’t you just sign it? In the future, when the Fallen Group merges with the Evans Group, its status will only

improve!”

Yvonne was in extrdespair.

Could it be that the Fallen Group was really going to be ruined by her?

Yvonne bit her lower lip, leaving a row of bloody marks on it. Her hands trembled as she tried to get a

pen.

A cold and arrogant voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

“Ms. Evans, it’s too early to celebrate. If you want to buy the Fallen Group, you should askfirst!”

Hearing this familiar voice, Yvonne and Jade were both shocked!
