Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Wilson had never expected Theodore to leave one of his men behind.

His sole purpose was to threaten him with it.

"Go ahead and deny everything, but let me tell you, from now on, I'll do everything that I should have done back then. Xavier can take care of Godfrey Group. As for you, I no longer consider you my father, and I will not show you any mercy." Theodore's words were full of grief and anger.

He should have done it a long time ago.

Everleigh wouldn't have had to go through so much pain.

Wilson turned around and narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean?"

"You care so much about Godfrey Group, right? If so, I'll start off with it then. If you dare touch Everleigh again, I'll make sure that Godfrey Group vanishes from Ocpeace City."

Wilson got up angrily and stared at him. "How dare you? Godfrey Group is your grandmother's life work!"

"She's already dead and I'm the one in charge of the family right now. You're no longer part of the family, so who are you to talk so much?" Theodore got up as well and responded condescendingly. He sounded like a true, powerful leader.

"Theodore, you ungrateful little brat. Did you put Xavier in power just to ruin the company?" Wilson questioned.

There was a gleam of panic in his eyes. He knew that Theodore was a man of his words. If he said that he would ruin Godfrey Group, he definitely planned on doing it.

No way. There was no way Wilson would allow him to ruin the Godfrey family just like that.

Xavier sneered as he saw Wilson feeling so distressed. "Stop using me as an excuse. Yes, I am useless. Godfrey Group is just a burden to me. I'm only taking over it to upset you."

Wilson's eyes widened. He couldn't believe that his own sons were all trying to ruin Godfrey Group.

Neither of them even considered that he was the one behind their achievements.

"You... You unthankful wolves! Without Godfrey Group, who do you think you can be today?" Wilson was enraged.

Theodore and Xavier both smirked as they heard his words. It was a smirk of ridicule and mockery.

They were doomed to be born into the Godfrey family from the very beginning, especially with a father like Wilson. Not only did he ruin his sons' happiness, he even tried to ruin his son's beloved woman. Besides, he also caused his other son to be disabled for life. Yet, a father like him was calling them ungrateful?

It was utterly ridiculous.

"Yes, it's true that we won't be living such an extravagant life without the Godfrey family, but then, what's most shameful is to have you as our father," Theodore said straightforwardly.

Wilson was taken aback to see the resentment in his son's eyes.

Everything that he had done was for the sake of his sons, and yet they were blaming him for everything.

"Just wait and see, my dear father. I'll prove to you that I can reach the peak of my life even without Godfrey Group," Theodore patted Wilson on his shoulder, while looking at him with a sharp glance.

Wilson was startled. His thoughts were running wild. He didn't know what tricks Theodore had up his sleeves.

Xavier lowered his head. A hint of suspicion flashed across his eyes as well. He was also curious to know what was on Theodore's mind.

How well prepared did he have to be to openly go against Godfrey Group?

Theodore then turned around and left the room. Xavier was no longer in the mood to resume the meeting, so he returned to his office.

As expected, Theodore was waiting for him there.

"Those words that you just said, what do they mean?" Xavier asked.

"It means that I'm leaving this company for good. You'll be fully in charge of Godfrey Group, and I won't interfere with anything. Wilson's right. If Grandma was still alive, she would never allow me to do so," Theodore felt a little sad as he mentioned Helen.

Xavier didn't say anything in response. He didn't know how he should feel about Helen.

"Then, why did you talk to him that way?" He asked.

"Will he ever make a move if I don't threaten him? By the way, how are things going in the company lately?" Theodore asked while looking at him.

Xavier chuckled, as if he found the question hilarious.

"What do you think? Everyone thinks I'm disabled and incapable. They can't wait to kick me out and put Wilson back in power," he replied. "Well, if you can't protect your own position, you deserve to be kicked out. Isn't this what Wilson always taught us?" Theodore said calmly. The emotions in his eyes were complicated.

Xavier tilted his head with a wide smile on his face. "I guess you're right. I must really do something to protect my power. It seems like I should start playing tough then." His eyes were glinting dangerously. Theodore cast a glance at him before leaving the office.

He was initially worried that Xavier wouldn't be able to protect his own power. That was the reason why he went over to see him. Sure enough, he was just overthinking things.

Back then, Xavier was already capable of managing the company. He just needed someone to strengthen his mind, and he wouldn't fall far behind Theodore's capabilities.

After Theodore left the office, the first thing that Xavier did was remove Wilson's right-hand man, the head of the design department.

Upon hearing the news, Wilson went straight to Xavier's office to get even with him. "Xavier, what are you trying to do? Zeeman has always been performing well in the company. Why did you fire him?" "Hold on, am I the president, or are you? I certainly have my own reasons for firing him," Xavier answered impatiently.

"It seems to me that you're doing this on purpose. You're targeting me!"

Xavier then responded, "Target you? Why should I even do that? Our sales figures this season are so awful. Isn't that because people out there are looking down on me for being handicapped and incompetent? They're just messing around with me with an outdated report. Do they really think that I won't fight back?"

Wilson was furious listening to his words. He stared at Xavier and asked, "Why did you remove someone from the finance department then?"

"I should be the one asking you. Why did you take away the company's funding? I was planning on asking you about this during the meeting, but now that you're here, just answer me directly. What reasons do you have for taking money away from the company without my permission?" Xavier asked.

"Didn't you see the document on your desk? There's an investment project, and yesterday was the due date for the payment," Wilson said.

Of course Xavier saw the document. He found the project problematic and rejected it directly, yet Wilson was still bringing it up.

"Don't you know that I've already rejected the project?" Xavier asked.

"It's a profitable and safe investment. Why did you reject such a good opportunity?" Wilson was infuriated to hear it.

Xavier sneered, "A profitable investment... For you? Do you really think that I know nothing about Chadwick Group's scandals? They are a fake dealer and are still under investigation, yet you're telling me it's a good investment?" "That scandal is already in the past. You don't have to dwell on it," Wilson said with a cold expression. He was fearless.

He had already taken out the money. Nothing could be done to stop it.

Xavier knew what he was thinking. He would never let him get away with it.
