Back at the Fischer’s mansion, as soon as I had taken a shower, I went to the small study next door, laid all the evidence on the table, and stood thinking about my next step.
Cheney pushed the door and came in, only a bath towel around his lower body, and his hair was still wet and dripping with water.
I went to the bathroom to get a clean towel, wiped his hair, and asked, “Is there really a business crisis inside the Brennan group?”
“Yes, Brent is not a good entrepreneur, but a black-hearted businessman at best.” He said with bare arms. “Brent is very clever, but he has too many crooked brains. He spends most of his energy on unlawful ways to make money. If you earn more money, you will always get retribution. Now the Brennan group can hardly find any partners because of the small means in the past years. Everyone is not stupid to see anyone who can do business. When you come out to mix, you have to pay it back sooner or later. The Brennan group can’t last long by eating your old money. ”
After he finished, he turned and threw me on the bed.
This night, it was another beautiful room.
Cheney’s pov
The next morning, I woke up to find that Krista was not in bed. I put on my robe and went out of the bedroom. When I passed the door of the small study, I saw her sitting in a chair in front of her desk, staring blankly at the information on the table. I held my arms and leaned against the door to watch her. This woman, holding all the evidence in her hand, was at a loss.
Shaking my head, I turned back to my room, not going to disturb her. After all, she needs to calm down now.
After breakfast, I went to the company and told Milo to pay attention to today’s news.
At noon, Milo came in. He took the tablet for his work and came to my desk. “Sir Cheney, there is movement.”
I took the tablet and looked at the news. I couldn’t help but hook my lips. “Do you know why I admire Krista?”
He was silent.
I looked at him. “Because she thinks just like me.”
In the morning, I was wondering where she would start attacking Brent. As a result, she gave me a satisfactory answer now. She was the first to release Luke’s video, just like I thought. The rest of the evidence, she has firmly held in her hand. Only Luke is an uncertain factor, because the thoughts of villains are the hardest to guess. Since he can betray Brent, it proves that he can fight back against Krista at any time. It is safest to push Luke out at the first time and turn Brent against Luke. Luke has no way out. He can only choose to stand beside Krista and show evidence for Krista to attack Brent. Then, little by little, she released the evidence in her hand to prove the authenticity of the materials in Luke’s hand. In this way, she prevented the villain, let the villain step on Brent for herself, and easily won the trust of the world with evidence. Even if Brent wants to refute it, it is very difficult.
Krista will win this battle beautifully.
Krista’s pov
I was having lunch when my cell phone rang like a death warrant. There are Brent’s calls and there are Mom’s calls. I didn’t answer them. I turned my mobile phone to mute and ate with peace of mind.
After dinner, I went back to my room, and there were more than 60 missed calls on my mobile phone.
Just then, my mother’s number came in again, and I picked it up slowly at this moment.
On the phone, she roared like a madman. “Krista, what the hell do you want?”
I didn’t make a sound, just listening to her anger alone at the other end of the phone.
“Don’t go on, please, please, why on earth… why do you have to ruin my life now, Krista, you are my daughter, can’t you think of me even once?”
I sneered.
“Krista, the Cross River Bridge thing, if you go on, do you think your father will come back to life? He’s gone. Do you want to lose me after losing your father?”
In the past, every time I heard her pleading, I would compromise, so I only hated and despised her. “I wish it was you, not him, who was lost from the beginning.” My voice was so cold that I was shocked when I heard myself saying it.
She paused. “What did you say?”
“I said, I wish I had lost you from the beginning, not my father. If my father was still alive, how could he allow me to be wronged? In our family of three, I became happy because I had Samuel as my father. And because of you, Delia, my mother, all became unfortunate. You can be selfish, you can be vicious, you can show your true skin to anyone in the world, but why do you want to use all these people who love you? Delia, you really don’t deserve such a good husband as Samuel. You and Brent are a perfect match. ”
“Krista, how can you say that to your mother?!”
“Why can’t I? You took advantage of Dad’s love for you and me, you let Dad take the blame for the Cross River Bridge, you forced my biological father to die, and you are my enemy.”
“You… I am the woman who brought you to this world, you should be thankful, my blood runs through you, and you cannot do anything about it.”
“If possible, I really don’t want to have a mother as evil as you. I always thought that you were just an ordinary woman who was content with the status quo and didn’t want to change her life now. But it was not until yesterday that I found out that I was really wrong. You were never and will never be a kind person. You married my father for his future. Seeing that my father’s only dream was to be a little engineer, you stepped on him. You jumped on the bed of ambitious Brent. I never thought that you would threaten my father with your disgusting scandal. My father was forced to die willingly for me. You are a murderer. ”
“Krista, don’t say it again. I don’t care what you know. Don’t say it again. It’s over. Mom is on her knees for you. I need you to forgive me. I really apologize for the past mistakes I’ve made. But I promise, that will be the last time that mom will commit mistake”
