However, Sheena noticed John’s tone and said, “Seems like you guys have been getting along well
with Elijah’s people recently.”
“Miss, we…” John started, a look of fear on his face, but he could not come up with an explanation.
Sheena’s expression turned icy, and she was uninterested in listening to their excuses. “As my
bodyguards, you let an outsider in and were drugged due to negligence. It’s simply embarrassing. You’ll
be fined two months‘ salary and year–end bonuses. If this happens again, you’re all fired.”
The three sobered–up individuals were left speechless.
It was getting late. Sheena had yet to eat dinner, so she ordered some takeout. After finishing the meal,
she retired to her room.
She had important matters to attend to the next day.
That night, negative news about the Carver Group’s previous misdeeds suddenly flooded the internet,
causing a massive uproar due to its exaggerated content.
However, the Carver family only found out the next morning, and their home was in an uproar.
Bethany had seen the news online about construction -related accidents causing casualties among
workers at a Carver Group construction site. In the past, when news emerged about construction faults
leading to the deaths of several workers under the Carver Group, the Carver family had used their
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtconnections to suppress it, settling with substantial compensation, and Melania had arranged for
people to threaten the victim families too.
Nevertheless, considering the amount of time that had passed, it was surprising that this information
resurfaced last night.
Almost fully recovered from her injuries, Bethany stormed upstairs to find Melania. As she approached
the room, she heard loud, crisp slaps, followed by Melania’s angry shouts.
“Louie! Even though you married into the Carver family, I’ve always treåted you kindly!.Yet, you’re
keeping a mistress with the Carver family’s money! She’s even pregnant with your child!”
“I’ve been wondering why you’ve frequently found excuses to be away from home lately. It turns out
you’ve been taking care of your mistress! If the media hadn’t caught you, were you planning to keep it a
secret forever?”
Louie, holding his face in disbelief, retorted, “Kindly? Do you seriously think you’ve been kind to me?
You flaunt your wealth from the Carver family every day and treat me with disrespect. The Carver
family regards me as a burden, and not a single one of them respects me. Yet, you have the audacity
to say you’ve been kind to me?”
Melania was furious. “Even if you harbor resentment toward the Carver family, it can’t be an excuse
for
your affair! I want a divorce! I want you out, with nothing to your name!”

“Fine, let’s get a divorce. But leaving nothing to my name is completely impossible. I admit my mistake,
but you’re not much better! Did you think I’m in the dark about you still being in touch with your first
love? How far have things gone between you two? Have you slept together?” Louie retorted.
Melania’s expression changed. “So what if I did? You started the affair first. I’m going to murder you!
Soon, the room echoed with the sounds of things being thrown, mixed with a woman’s screams and
slapping noises, creating a rough scene.
Bethany stood outside the door, hearing everything clearly, crying in despair but refraining from
entering to intervene.
For years, she believed her family was happy, with loving parents and the Carver family being society’s
recognized model family. Little did she know, her father was keeping a mistress who was now
pregnant, and her mother was entangled with a former lover.
Now, with the Carver Group’s negative news getting exposed, the stock market plummeted overnight,

Was the Carver family going to fall apart?
Bethany sat on the floor, devastated and unwilling to accept it.
That wicked Sheena would surely find new ways to torment her if the Carver family collapsed.
No, she could not sit idly by.
Trembling, Bethany took out her phone, intending to call the man who had helped her deal with
Sheena
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the hall.
Leaning against the second–floor railing, Bethany turned to look, only to find Sheena.
Sheena was sitting on the main sofa in the living room with a cold and arrogant demeanor. Her
beautiful face displayed an air of superiority.
When Bethany looked at her, Sheena raised her chin slightly, meeting Bethany’s gaze.
Sheena smiled smugly, saying, “Ms. Carver, do you still like the gift I gave to the Carver family? There’s
also a special little gift just for you. Would you like to take a look?”
