Chapter 6
Dante searched through all my friends but couldn’t find me. Instead, he got news that projects were pulling out of the company left and right.
With the divestment announcements, company stock kept plummeting, heading straight for rock bottom.
He had no choice but to slink back to the office with his head down.
He repeatedly promised the board of directors he’d squash the online “rumors” and recover the core technology.
After barely managing that shitstorm, he returned to the hospital. The moment he walked in, he heard Ashley complaining.
“Dante, Celia’s being so fucking unfair! Look at what they’re saying about me online.“[]
“She’s just a paralyzed cripple now. Without you, she can’t even put food on the table. You should just divorce her already–teach her a lesson.“[]
“Otherwise I’m getting trashed for nothing. The things they’re saying are horrible.“]
Ashley’s voice broke as she spoke, completely oblivious to how serious this situation was.
Dante looked sick, but still went to comfort her.
“Celia went too far this time, but… we were pretty ruthless to her too.”
- as.
“I’ve been thinking about it. I shouldn’t have crippled her legs. She was always so lively, always running around and jumping. Being paralyzed… of course she can’t accept it.”
“When she comes back, I’ll get the best doctors to help her. I’ll make it up to her properly.”
This set Ashley off big time. Just as she was about to explode, Dante got hit with a series of payment demands.
He quickly changed the subject“Ashley, about those shares I transferred to you–I need you to give them back temporarily. I-“]
Ashley cut him off with a flat refusal.
“No fucking way! You promised them to me and the baby. You can’t just take it back.“]
Ashley’s reaction caught Dante completely off guard. He was stunned for a second.
He’d always thought they were on the same wavelength, which was why he’d transferred part of his shares to her after she had the baby.
He didn’t care about the cost–he genuinely wanted to take care of her and their child.
That’s why he’d hurt Celia so badly. But…
“The company’s in crisis right now. I just need them back temporarily to get through this, then I’ll give them to you again.“]
Dante tried sweet–talking her, but Ashley completely turned on him.
“You’re having second thoughts! Now you’re working with Celia to trick me out of my shares. I won’t let you get away with it.It all belongs me!“[]
“Dante, don’t forget–I gave you a baby. How can you treat me like this?”
Unable to get the shares back from Ashley, Dante had no choice but to sell the Ravenscroft family mansion.
When Sophia had to move from the mansion to a tiny place and found out Ashley refused to return the shares, she stormed to the hospital in a rage.
The two women barely exchanged words before they were throwing punches.]
Sophia was too old to match Ashley in a fight. In desperation, she grabbed a nearby kettle of boiling water and hurled it at her.
Ashley suffered severe burns over 90% of her face.
Sophia was arrested on the spot for assault.]
I learned all this while I was finishing physical therapy.
Td contacted top specialists abroad. Thankfully, with prompt treatment, my legs were slowly regaining sensation.[]
Matthew Harris told me about the company’s situation]
When I’d returned to help the company through my firm, he was my main contact.
Id helped him out a lot over the years, and we’d maintained a good relationship.
