Chapter 246:
“If you sign that contract, your family’s fortune will be wiped out, and you'll never see a penny of it again!”
Boswell scoffed at Millie's defense. “Strong connections? More like shady dealings. What kind of legitimate
connections does a criminal even have? Millie, you need to wake up! It's a wonder the company hasn't been sold
off yet with you in charge. I've told you before, women can’t handle the big picture. Dad, you should lettake
over the company!”
Jameson's expression darkened further, and he pointed sharply at Millie. “You'll cut ties with this woman
immediately. | won't let our company fall apart because of your poor choices. If you continue, you can forget
about keeping your position as the CEO!”
Millie was caught in a tough spot. She was intrigued by the potential of Khloe’s biopharmaceuticals, but she also
knew that pushing forward with the investment might cost her position.
“Miss Evans, I'll need stto consider my options,” Millie said at last, her voice laced with resignation as
she turned to Khloe, choosing to prioritize her own security.
Khloe felt a knot tighten in her chest, but she knew Lorraine had carmed with everything needed to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsabotage her pitch today. No matter how much she tried to explain her agent's potential, she knew Jameson
wasn't going to listen. It would only result in more embarrassment.
“Alright, | anticipate our next collaboration, Ms. Glyn. Irrespective of the outcome, | respect you and hope to stay
in touch,” Khloe said, her expression unwavering, masking any trace of disappointment or discouragement from
the failed pitch. With graceful confidence, she shook hands with Millie as they parted ways.
Her composed demeanor left a lasting impression, causing Millie to regard Khloe with even greater respect. As
Millie handed Khloe her business card, she added, “Please, keep in touch.”
Khloe accepted the card with a smile, giving a subtle nod before turning to leave. Her posture was straight, each
step deliberate and graceful, and her composed demeanor left Jameson with a growing sense of confusion.
Could someone so poised truly be a fraud?

Still, as the prison records Lorraine had shown him resurfaced in his mind, along with the fabricated reports of
deaths overseas, Jameson clung to his conviction that he was right.
Millie, watching Khloe leave, seethed with fury. She whipped around to face Jameson. “Dad, | don’t understand
why we're letting an outsider interfere in our business. And don’t ass| haven't heard—Lorraine, you're
Khloe’s stepmother. You two have serious history, don’t you?”
Her words were aimed squarely at Lorraine.
Lorraine remained composed. “Jameson, | know I shouldn't involve myself in your affairs, but I can’t stand by and
watch Khloe cause you harm. As you know, the Evans family has suffered a significant setback recently. We
invested in several projects based on Khloe’s advice, and every single one of them failed. I'm just trying to offer
you the benefit of a lesson learned from our mistakes.”
The truth was, during the honor student exam, Khloe had publicly exposed her engagement to Henrik and cut all
ties with the Evans family. Many respected families, wary of the scandal, had distanced themselves from the
Evans family, hastening their decline.
But Lorraine, ever scheming, quickly shifted the blame, casting Khloe as the villain in her carefully spun story.
Jameson nodded, his expression filled with gratitude. “Lorraine, you've saved my company! Allowto treat
you to a drink!”
Seizing the moment, Boswell leaned in, his tone dripping with sarcasm. “Dad, Millie’s being reckless. Khloe is
clearly trouble, yet Millie chooses to work with her and now dares to question Lorraine? She's becfar too
independent and doesn’t respect you anymore. You need to set her straight.”
“Boswell, how dare you!” Millie's voice exploded with fury. Jameson interrupted Millie, his gaze filled with
disappointment. “Millie, take a few days off. Allow your brother to handle things for now.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMillie stared at her father, disbelief washing over her. Was he really taking her power away, just like that?
