Finding Out The Billionaire

Chapter 63

Chapter 63 Unbelievable

Everyone was stupefied.

That was an invaluable piece of art!

Yet Alex was bold enough to tear it without any hesitation.

Demi’s smile froze on her face, then her expression darkened. Her body trembled while she breathed heavily in anger.

She was not upset about how he had torn an expensive art piece.

Rather, it was the fact that Alex did it in front of all her guests at her seventieth birthday banquet.

His action was like a slap to her face.

Bastard! How dare he humiliate me like this!

Henry, Jacob, and the rest of the Jennings family were shocked to their core.

Even if Alex did not want to give it to Demi, he could have still sold it to Mr. Weston.

That was a painting worth a million!

Alarmed, Jacob and the rest shot daggers at Alex as though they wanted to tear him into pieces as he did to the painting.

Heather’s mouth was wide open in shock, and she felt the urge to kick Alex in the balls.

That was a million!

Isn’t he clear of our family’s financial status?

How dare he tear it into pieces?

Heather’s face was contorted in anger, and she was mortified.

“Damn you! I will teach you a lesson!” Carmen yelled in agitation before she pounced at Alex.

She lunged forward and raised her hand to give Alex a slap across his face.

However, Alex was done yielding to her. So he grabbed her wrist and looked at her coldly.

“I tore my own painting, what does that have to do with you?” Alex asked coldly. This woman has been testing my patience since forever.

Alex was afraid that he might end up giving her a good beating on the day he finally explodes.

“Mom, what are you doing! Don’t you think we got more than our fair share of embarrassment already?” Heather scolded when she noticed how they were humiliating themselves in front of everyone else.

Even if you wanted to vent your anger on Alex, you shouldn’t have done it here. Isn’t what you’re doing just making a fool out of yourself?

Besides, you’re not the only one who wants to vent your anger, even I would like to teach Alex a lesson as well.

“You’re but a piece of trash! Don’t get smart with me. If I don’t make Heather leave you by today, I will change my surname to yours!” Carmen glowered at Alex and retracted her hand from Alex’s grip. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

She decided that she would make Heather leave the b*stard today, regardless of what happens.

Otherwise, she would go crazy because of him.

Meanwhile, Michael merely nodded in silence. Although he felt that it was a pity that Alex tore Edric Clifforde’s artwork, his respect for Alex rose when he witnessed Alex’s unyielding spirit.

“Before we take our seats, I would like to make an announcement.” Demi scowled at Alex then looked at Heather and Carmen.

“After recent events, I am thankful that the Jennings family got through the difficult times and managed to get back on the right track. Now that our competitors have gotten into trouble and have filed for bankruptcy, we are in a position to earn more in the future since there are no other competitors in sight. By next year, we will be able to expand our factories and our production,” Demi announced proudly.

Everyone had a happy expression on their face upon hearing Demi’s announcement.

Even Heather’s family had forgotten about their scuffle with Alex and were delighted by the news.

Heather felt especially so, given that she played the biggest role in getting the Jennings family’s business back on track.

After all, she was the one who got the thirty million from the Four Seas Corporation’s chairman and saved the Jennings family from bankruptcy.

In addition, her brother Lucas had ten percent of shares in the company, while her son Stanley had five percent of shares.

That implies that her family would be getting a big bonus.

The rage and displeasure that Heather felt earlier vanished without a trace as she waited expectantly for Demi’s praise.

At that moment, she felt that all the humiliation she had suffered before was worthwhile.

However, Heather’s long-awaited moment of glory never came because Demi turned to Jacob instead and praised, “During this period, Jacob has performed well and he was the one who had single- handedly brought the Jennings family back on track.”

Boom!

Heather was thunderstruck upon hearing Demi’s words and she looked at Demi in disbelief.
