Chapter 11
At this moment, Shawn, who was standing beside me, stepped forward with a smile and said, “The Bradley Group has changed hands. I am now the head of the family. The promises made by Harvey to you no longer count.”
Everyone was frozen in place. Jackson pointed at Shawn in disbelief and said, “You… Weren’t you an idiot?”
“I was pretending, so what? Does it have anything to do with you?”
These words infuriated Jackson, and even Rosella’s eyes were filled with jealousy.
“Fine, it’s just a breach of contract penalty. I’ll pay. Do you think I only have the Sullivan Group? You don’t know yet, but now the Lockhart Group is in my hands too. Let me tell you, sooner or later, I’ll become stronger than the Bradley family!”
As his words fell, a few people walked in from the direction of the meeting room door. Leading them was his dad, William, with a group of police officers behind him.
“Silly son, stop daydreaming. Do you think it’s so easy to take over my Lockhart Group?
“The mole you planted in our group has long since joined me. All the acquisition contracts he helped you sign are fake!
“It seems your mom really didn’t teach you well. Well, let the police educate you.”

The police stepped forward and handcuffed him.
“We suspect you of deliberately causing engineering accidents. We have also confirmed that the money you used to acquire the Lockhart family’s shares came from an overseas money laundering group that flowed into our country. You are now under arrest according to the
law.”
As Jackson was taken away by the police, he passed by me, and I quietly told him.,
“The girl who saved you back then was me. That necklace was snatched from my neck by Rosella, and she never wears a white dress.”
Jackson froze, then went mad, shouting, “Rosella, I’m going to kill you!
Ahhhhh!”
The people in the meeting room quickly dispersed, leaving only Carl and Rosella, along with Shawn and me.
Suddenly, Rosella crawled to Shawn’s feet on her knees.
“Your marriage to Monica doesn’t count. I should have been the one to marry you! Look, I’m much younger than her, and I’m more beautiful. Although I’ve had a child, I’ve recovered well, but she’s been to prison! She’s not worthy of you! Marry me instead!”
Shawn stepped back in disgust, pulling me into his embrace.
“You have bad breath, don’t you? How could you say such disgusting things? Back then, you wouldn’t marry me because you thought I was an idiot, and now you’re begging me? Who do you think you are? Get lost!”
I also spoke up to remind them both. “By the way, you’d better vacate

the house you’re living in soon. We’re suing you, and the Bradley family will use those assets to offset the debt.
“And Rosella, didn’t you marry Jackson? So, you’re also responsible for repaying the debt he owes. If you can’t pay, you can ask your useless dad.”
Carl finally snapped out of his shock, crying and kneeling in front of me. “Monica, help me, please! You can’t just let me end up like this.”
“Heh, Carl, did you forget that we already severed ties? I don’t have a dad like you.
“Also, I told you that if your family ever begs for food, don’t come to me. I won’t give you a single meal. I keep my word!
“Alright, I’m going home to rest for the baby with my husband now.”
With that, I happily took Shawn’s hand and walked away.
