Since Edie was still considered part of the Stewart family, this matter needed Percival’s decision.
“In that case, inform her about it, and then let the Bennett family know. Make sure they understand that Hannah’s old friend is pregnant with her son’s child,” Percival said coldly
He no longer considered Edie his mother, so her reputation was of no concern to him.
However, Edie still did not understand this and assumed the Stewart family would not abandon her.

“Now, the trending topics online are all about her stream! Her followers on Twitter have increased by 600 million, with everyone rushing to follow her.”
With her popularity skyrocketing, you’d better hold on tight, or someone might try to steal her away, Orson added with a playful reminder. Although he knew Odalys wasn’t the type to be fickle, Orson still felt compelled to say something
“It seems you have time to meddle in others‘ affairs. Need something to do?” Percival raised an eyebrow, clearly displeased with the gossip about Odalys
“No, no. I’m busy enough. I’m out of here, Orson quickly backed off, raising his hands in surrender.
As he turned to leave, he slipped away without looking back.
Percival held his phone and he thought of Odalys. After a moment, he walked to his car. Just as he was getting in, Lee approached and lightly knocked on his car window.
Percival opened the car door, and Lee got in.
“Mer Stewart, we’ve uncovered the problem! A large number of insiders within the bureau have been aiding these activities. Some are senior oficial, while others are newer recruits. It’s a tangled web, and I haven’t reported this to my superiors yet”

Since meeting Odalys, it was as if the world had started to change.
Justice would surely open its arms to the people again, restoring peace and stability. It had to.
At Bennett Villa, the atmosphere was tense.
Early in the morning, the entire family had gathered in the living room, not daring to make a sound. Henry had been arrested the previous night. and it was Atlas who had secured his release.
“Henry, why would you get involved with an older woman?” Atlas finally snapped, unable to hold back his frustration
The thought of Edie, widowed for so many years, now tangled with Henry, was beyond his comprehension.
Henry’s face darkened as flashes of Last night’s scene with Odalys livestreaming the event replayed in his mind. The memory alone made him furious.
Now, being interrogated by Atlas, he clenched his fists tightly.
“Exactly. Henry! Why would you get involved with her? You knew she was Odalys’s mother–in–law. Even if you wanted resources, y have entangled with her.” Caspian chimed in, fanning the flames.
The tension in the room rose again

Hannah sat there, her usual arrogance gone.
The thought of her old friend sleeping with Henry disgusted her. She even found herself regretting giving birth to Henry.
“What is this?” Adas’s sudden shout broke the silence
His expression shifted dramatically as he connected his phone to the large TV screen. Moments later, the screen lit up, displaying startling footage

The family erupted into chaos, staring at t

The familiar faces of the shareholders appeared, disliveled and sprawled on the bed, avoiding the camera. The lens stayed fixed on them until they tried to escape, only to be stopped by people outside.

Though Caspian hadn’t taken over the Bennett Group, that didn’t mean he would sit idly by while Henry drained their resources.
If the resources were transferred, it would also mean the assels were gone
Without assets, the Bennett Group would be nothing but an empty shell, leaving them with nothing. No money meant no status, no luxurious lifestyle, and no indulgent feasts.
Without wealth, they wouldn’t survive in elite circles.
