Chapter 252

With the cops at the doorstep, Howard and Tommy freaked out. Lex stepped forward and glanced at

Wyatt. As the patriarch of the Callahans, he had heard of him.

“Mr. Jeremiah, could this be a misunderstanding? How could they have committed a professional

crime? What have they done?!

Wyatt glanced at James.

James took a step forward and said, “It was me who reported them to the authorities.”

“You?”

They fixed their gaze on James.

Tommy burst into a fit of rage. “James, you piece of trash! You’ve been leeching off the Callahans since

the beginning. How dare you call the cops on me! And on what charges? Just what did I do?!”

Howard said coldly, “This isn’t over until you give me an explanation.”

Thea pulled at James and questioned, “James, what are you doing?”

Everyone stared coldly at James, their gaze filled with hatred. What was he thinking, calling the cops?

James turned to face them and replied coldly, “I trust Thea. She wouldn’t do anything that brought

shame to the family. I knew someone must’ve framed her, but I didn’t know who. So, I reported the

matter to the authorities. They arrested Yosef, and he confessed to everything.”

As he spoke, he looked at Howard and Tommy.

“Little did I know, it was the both of you who’d been plotting against Thea all this while.”

“You…” Tommy took a few steps back and collapsed on the sofa.

Howard’s face was as white as a sheet.

Lex looked at Wyatt and said, “Mr. Jeremiah, could this be a misunderstanding? This is simply

concerning a family’s internal affairs. How could it constitute a commercial crime?”

Wyatt paid no heed to Lex and said coldly, “Since someone’s reported the case to us, it’s our

responsibility to get to the bottom of it. Yosef has confessed to everything. First, Tommy gave him a

hundred thousand dollars to deliver sub-standard and expired medicine to Eternality Hospital. Then,

Howard gave him a million dollars and instructed him to frame Thea. If you have anything to say, do it

at the police station. Seize them!” A few policemen stepped forth and pulled out handcuffs.

They forcefully handcuffed Howard and Tommy.

Wearing a grim expression, Howard remained silent.

Meanwhile, Tommy cried out, “Grandpa, save me! I don’t want to go to prison!”

Under the gaze of the Callahans, Howard and Tommy were taken away. David recollected his senses

only after the policemen had left. He secretly gave James a thumbs up.

Smash!

Lex slammed his cane on the table angrily and roared, “What have you done, James?! This is our

family’s personal business! If they’ve done wrong, report it to me. Why did you call the cops? Do you

know what’s going to happen now?!” Lex was enraged. The Callahans watched helplessly. No one

dared speak up. James said calmly, “And did doing that work? I brought Yosef here to explain things,

but he refused to tell the truth. You didn’t trust Thea at all. How can I prove her innocence without

calling the cops? Besides, I went to the authorities without knowing that the true masterminds were

Howard and his family. Now that the truth is out, we should acknowledge that they’ve wronged Thea.”

“You little…”

Lex’s complexion turned pale with anger.

“Besides…”

James continued, “Thea’s no longer the chairman of Eternality. She’s the chairman of Pacific Group

and owns ninety percent of its shares. This afternoon, she’d just taken over the company from Trevor

through a loan.”

Cough! Upon hearing this, Lex coughed up blood. Then, he fainted. Seeing this, the Callahans freaked

out and swiftly made their way to his side.

“James, what are you doing?” Thea rebuked him with an indignant look on her face. “How could you

call the cops? This was a family matter. Why did you report it to the authorities without consulting me?”

After rebuking James, she quickly made her way to Lex Lex had passed out from rage. Soon, he

regained consciousness. He sat on the sofa, panting, “You think you’re so smart and all grown-up now,

Thea? Do you not care about the family rules anymore? If that’s the case, I have nothing to say. Leave.

From this day onward, you’re no longer part of the Callahans.” “Grandpa…”

Disoriented, Thea said, “Although I’ve taken over Pacific Group and am no longer the chairman of

Eternality, I’ll ensure the contracts signed between Eternality and other corporations remain. Eternality

will continue to receive orders from them in the future.”
