Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy by Inked Snow Chapter 1667
“Of course the money should stay with me and be subject to my disposal.”
Luna, who had finally recomposed herself from the shock of being slapped by Charles, sneered and glanced at
Heather coldly. “Don’t forget this money is what Father and Mother owe me.
“Mr. Landry abandoned me in the orphanage when I was just a child, causing me to suffer in a poor family for more than twenty years and even be bullied and insulted by the Gibsons over the years.
“Therefore, this money was given to me to make up for all the suffering I had been through.”
With that, Luna glanced at Charles, snickering. “Why don’t you tell us what you intend to do with this money, Mr. Landry?”
Charles leaned against his chair feebly and waved his hand at Luna. “Well, when your mother and I froze this money to leave it under your name, we had never thought of taking it back from you.
“You don’t have to say things like this to make me feel bad. If you want the money, you can take it. I have no right to stop you anyway.”
Heather’s entire body stiffened when she heard this.
Charles was not planning to get the money back from Luna at all!
How could this be?
She bit her lip and said in a low voice, “Father, you should know that the Landry family is now…”
Charles waved his hands dismissively. “Since Joshua Lynch is all she thinks about, do you honestly think she’ll care about the Landry family’s survival?”
With that, he glanced meaningfully at Heather and added, ” After announcing that I’ll be kicking her out of the Landry family tonight, I’ll sign the papers to segregate the money under her name from our own so that she can take it away with her.”
Heather widened her eyes in shock.
This was not what she wanted at all! She wanted Charles to demand the money back from Luna before kicking her out!
That way, the money would belong to her and Malcolm, whereas Luna and Jim would be out of the picture, one having been kicked out by Charles and the other one deprived of his right as CEO of Landry Group!
What was even happening?
Heather bit her lip and quickly grabbed hold of Charles’ hand. “But Father, without this money, both Landry and Quinn Group cannot survive…”
“Isn’t that your problem?” Luna sneered and stared coldly a t Heather. “The money under my name had been frozen by Father and Mother a few years ago when they first found out you weren’t their biological daughter.
“A year ago, even without the money, Land ry Group was still one of the biggest companies dominating the Merchant City market, alongside Quinn Group.
“However, now, the two families combined is not even a match for Lynch Group, so is it because Joshua Lynch is too powerful, or you and Malcolm are too useless?”
Heather widened her eyes in shock. “You! What on earth are you talking about? It was Joshua Lynch that—”
“What did Joshua Lynch do?” All of a sudden, a cold male voice rang out from the direction of the door. Luna lifted her head in delight.
The person standing at the door was none other than Jim.
He seemed to have rushed over as soon as he woke up. His hair was a little unruly, and there was even a small patch of hair standing up from his head.
Jim strode into the room under Heather’s shocked gaze. ” Even though Joshua is terrifyingly good at his job, the reason the Landry and Quinn families even end up here now is all because of you and Malcolm, isn’t it?”
He curled his lips into a smirk, staring at Heather as he walked over to Luna’s side. “Do you want me to list out every single one of the mistakes and financial losses you caused the company ever since you started hel ping out?”
Jim took out a tablet and started reciting the contents. “In October last year, when you first took over Landry Group, you committed a fatal mistake. After discovering that the daughter of one of our suppliers was prettier than you, making you feel uneasy when she met with you, you changed suppliers using defective products as an excuse.
“The next supplier that Landry Group worked with provided significantly poorer quality products with a ten-percent increase in price, and the financial losses stemmed from this incident are…”
Jim seemed to have recorded plenty of information on his tablet. The color drained from Heather’s face as he read out all the information.
