Chapter 6 Gathering
Lawrence stared at me expressionlessly. “You hurt your interests too, you know that? Did love make you stupid? You lost nearly 150 million dollars, and all just for Jonathan and Harold. Do you have nothing inside your head?”
I raised my eyebrow. “You need to keep up with the news. I’ve sold my shares, so you’re the only one who lost money, not me.”
Three days ago, while Lawrence was showing off his love for Melissa, I asked my sister, Rachel Trail, to sell my shares to Donald Lawson, the second biggest shareholder of the
company.
I took my mother’s maiden name, while my sister took our father’s name. No one would think we were related. Since I rose to prominence because of infamy, I put my shares under my sister’s name in case it hurt the company.
Besides Lawrence and Melissa, no one knew about this. As for Donald, he was friends with Melissa, so he made my life harder than it had to be. I felt no guilt tripping him up.
Lawrence was in disbelief. “You set me up?”
“Don’t look so surprised. You did the same thing to me on a more disgusting magnitude. Why are you so hurt over some retaliation? Don’t try to victimize yourself. You disgust me.”
I gave him and Melissa many chances, but they pushed their luck. I had repaid my debt, and I refused to waste my time arguing with a stupid guy like Lawrence, so I kicked him out. It was written in the divorce agreement that this property would be mine after we
divorced.
