SWNOVELS Chapter 142
Zachary’s words caused Nellie’s face to go pale, every word hurt She thought. It turns out he’s been playing along with me all these years, knowing about it all along. How foolish I have been!
Nellie finally collapsed and slumped onto the stage, gazing up at Zachary with hate and insanity in her eyes rather than love.
The crowd didn’t hear what Zachary said, only witnessing Nellie take a step back with each of his words until she had nowhere left to retreat and fell onto the stage.
At that moment, the Smith family’s butler Jason entered with a few bodyguards.
At the sight of Jason. Zeke felt like he calm him. Jason walked onto the sta
and a savior. When he was about to complain to him. Jason gave him a look to ped Nelhe up, and instructed bodyguards to take Nellie, Zeke, and Winona away first. Nellie reluctantly cast one last glance at Zachary before leaving with the bodyguards. Jason stood on the stage facing Zachary, his voice omingas while he said. “Mr. Chambers, Mr. Smith has received the divorce agreement, along with other documents. The agreement will be signed and delivered to the Chambers family tomorrow. It will end the relationship between the Smith and Chambers families. Mr. Smith asked me to pass on a word: Life is unpredictable. You should be careful when going out in the future. I hope you stay healthy and watch how the Chambers family declines under your leadership. With that, he left without regard for the curious glances of the crowd.
This party finally came to an end. Attendees today experienced twists and turns as well as ups and downs. Winona told a big lie. The newly found eldest daughter of the family turned out to be the mysterious painter Cyanbird. After Zachary left all his assets to his daughter, he announced the divorce with Nellie The Chambers and Smith families broke apalt. These events would undoubtedly make headlines of Seacrity tomorrow.
Everyone was aware that turmoil was going to descend upon Seacrity’s business world after tonight. The disagreement between the Smith and Chambers families was a big deal.
Lucas returned to the living room after seeing off the last batch of guests and saw Zachary, who was sitting on the sofa and. looking very tired. Lucas couldn’t help but be shocked by today’s events. He couldn’t believe that Zachary had been quietly scheming for so many years and keeping it from him too. He had been working for Zachary for years, and he was completely unaware of these matters. Zachary had spent over twenty years making such a big plan. But starting tomorrow, the Chambers family would likely face the Smith family’s furious retaliation. Dennis was not someone to be trifled with, and Zachary’s actions today were clearly a declaration of a break with the Smith family. If it were before, Lucas wouldn’t have worried so much. But now, the Chambers family was no longer as strong as before; if the Smith family…The future looked bleak.
Lucas walked to Zachary, bowed respectfully, and said with his head down, “Mr. Chambers, all the guests have left, and so have Ms. Chambers and her friends.”
Zachary rubbed his temples, his expression solemn, and said in a low voice, “OK. Bring the documents on the table to Yvette’s school tomorrow. I’ve completed all the procedures at the law firm; after today. Yvette owns Chambers Group.”
Lucas heart skipped a beat. He thought, “Something is off. Why does Mr. Chambers sound like he’s saying the last words?
“Why don’t you ask if I even want Chambers Group?” a rebellious and arrogant voice sounded.
Zachary looked toward the door with surprised joy.
Lucas, recognizing the voice, was also extremely astonished. He had just seen Yvette leave, but now she was back.
Yvette leaned against the door with one leg slightly bent with a cold look, her eyebrows raised. She was back in her usual sportswear outfit and those familiar canvas shoes. She walked in unhurriedly. “I don’t want Chambers Group”
Zachary let out a soft sigh, looking at Yvette with a very complicated gaze. When he found out she casually took out 100 million dollars to gamble with Ethan at Sky Nimbus, he knew that Yvette, his daughter with Lilian, was no ordinary person Then, Bryan made an appearance at the Argrol University Art Festival. Today at the banquet, she was disclosed to be the famous painter Cyanbird. Yvette already had everything, and now he finally understood why she reconnected with the
Chambers family. He knew for sure she wasn’t for the Chambers family’s money, and it was probably not a coincidence that she was found. His daughter had become such an excellent and powerful person without his knowledge.
Zachary tilted his head and told Lucas to leave; the spacious living room of the villa was left with only Zachary and Yvette now
Yvette was sitting on the sofa with one leg crossed over the other holding the coffee that Zachary had just brewed, looking quite at ease.
Zachary’s mouth twitched. Although Yvette looked like Lilian, she had a completely different personality. But that was fine, as it meant Yvette wouldn’t be bullied in the future.
After a while. Zachary spoke earnestly. “Yvette, I know you don’t want Chambers Group. You haven’t even considered it, right?”
Yvette pursed her lips with a mischievous yet cold look. She nodded slightly and bluntly said in an indifferent tone, “No.”
Zachary picked up his coffee cup to take a sip, but the coffee felt more bitter after he heard her answer. He had worked hard for the business for half of his life, and his daughter didn’t even want it. He felt so uncomfortable. Zachary looked at Yvette and let out a faint sigh, his eyes filled with slightly melancholy. “Did you deliberately let me find you? Reuniting with the Chambers family was also part of your plan, wasn’t it?”
Yvette played with the empty coffee cup in her hand, not denying it.
Zachary was not surprised; it was just to confirm what he had guessed. His expression became more serious as he continued, “Yveste, I chose to announce my divorce from Nellie in front of all the celebrities in Seacrity tonight, which means that the Chambers and Smith families will be completely severed from now on Dennis is spoiling Nellie, so I know he won’t let it go easily. He’ll likely decide to fight alongside our family until the end. Our family has changed over time. We are probably going to succeed in the business world if the Smith family targets us. Therefore, I beg you to take over the family assets and do with them as you please. I won’t object.”
Upon hearing this, Yvette remained expressionless, only glancing up at him with her clear eyes and a smug, mischievous look. “Chambers Group won’t go bankrupt; you don’t need to worry about that.”
Zachary pondered. It won’t go bankrupt? What does she mean? The business battlefield is also fierce; although Yvette is Cyanbird, it’s not easy to run a company worth over 3 billion dollars due to its complicated internal affairs. It is a fight to the end once the Chambers and Smiths begin business wars. Bankruptcy is inevitable given the Chambers family’s current strength
Seeing Zachary’s obviously skeptical look, Yvette didn’t say much lowering her eyes. She pondered, “Business war? It’s quite interesting
Zachary didn’t say anything to discourage Yvette. In his view, there was no need to involve Yvette in this matter. Even if he lost and the Chambers family fell in the future, what he left for vette would be enough for her to live a worry-free life for the rest of her life.
