She had something important to handle tomorrow.
That night, damaging news about the Green Group was exposed on the Internet.
The content was outrageous and caused an uproar.
The Green family didnât find out until the following morning, and their villa was in chaos.
Tess read that some of the Green Groupâs construction site workers were crushed to death during a construction failure.
The news had been suppressed by the Green family, who called in personal favors and other tactics.
Because of the high value of compensation involved, Alvina had arranged for people to threaten the victimsâ families.
However, it had somehow been exposed last night.
Tess ran upstairs to search for Alvina.
As she marched into Alvinaâs room, she heard a loud slap, followed by Alvinaâs angry roar.
âDustin! I treat you well as my husband, right? But you abused your position and used my money to keep a mistress! And sheâs even pregnant?!
Itâs no wonder youâve been making excuses to go out.
It turns out that you are taking care of your mistress! If you hadnât been photographed by the media, were you planning to hide it from me forever?â
Dustin covered his face with his hand and said, âTreat me well? Are you kidding me? You use your familyâs wealth to torment me.
Everyone in the Green family looks down on me.
How dare you say you treat me well?â
Alvina was furious.
âWhat? Your grudge against the Green family is no excuse for having an extramarital affair.
I want a divorce! And donât think for one moment that youâll get any financial settlement! Youâll be penniless.
â
âOkay, Iâll divorce you.
But I wonât give up the property.
I might be in the wrong, but youâre not any better than me! I know whatâs been going on between you and your first love.
You still stay in touch with each other.
Secret dinners.
Quiet phone calls.
Did you have s@x?â
Alvinaâs face changed, âYou! You have a mistress.
How dare you question me now? Iâll kill you!â
The room was filled with noise: things smashing against walls, faces slapped, and a womanâs scream.
Standing outside the door, Tess heard it all.
She cried hysterically, but she didnât walk in and stop them.
She had believed her family were happy and that her parentsâ marriage was harmonious.
She had never expected a pregnant mistress of her fatherâs and an entanglement between her mother and her first love.
In addition, now all the dirty secrets of the Green Group were exposed, the stock value had plummeted overnight.
The family had suffered heavy financial losses.
It looked as though the Green family would implode.
She crumpled to the floor, trying to make a plan.
Lucinda was an arrogant bitch.
If the Green family collapsed, Lucinda would use the opportunity to torture her.
No! She wouldnât sit around and wait for that to happen.
She grabbed her phone in shaking hands and was about to call that man who had help her deal with Lucinda before.
