Chapter 366 Uncovering My Wife’s Secrets
Preston immediately took a big step forward and stood in front of Lianne. In the past, it was always his sister who protected him.
It would be his turn to protect her in the future. “What are you doing? I’m just asking Lianne for her phone.” Jared looked at
Preston with annoyance. He had to format Lianne’s phone and completely destroyed the will video right away. “What do you
want my phone for?” Lianne asked as she took out her phone. Jared snatched it over and formatted it at once. “What are you
doing?” Lianne asked. “Why do you have so many questions?” After formatting her daughter’s phone, Jared felt as if a great
weight had been lifted off his shoulder. Suddenly, Mia exclaimed, “Dad, look at the news!” “What?” Jared asked. Mia immediately
handed her phone to Jared. They had made headlines on different online news sites. “Madam Blake Has Made a Will, Preston
Will Take Over Blake Corporation” “Madam Blake Has Made a Will, Who Will Take Charge of Blake Corporation? “Winner of the
Inheritance Dispute of Blake Corporation, Legitimate Son or Illegitimate Son?” “Satisfying! The Greatest Respect for Marriage Is
to Leave All Inheritance to the Legitimate Child” Jared clicked on the news and saw the reporter’s sappy narration of the Blake
family’s situation at great lengths.
There was even a complete video regarding the will attached in the middle. The reporter applauded: According to sources, after
Preston Blake lost his memory in a car accident six years ago, his IQ regressed to that of a child. But Annalise cured his
amnesia in less than two months. She is indeed Master Quigley’s proudest student... Jared glared at Lianne angrily. “You sent
the video to the press?” “Is there a problem? The will itself is something that should be made known,” Lianne said calmly. She
was extremely grateful to Annalise and Julian. Annalise had miraculously cured her brother’s illness and stabilized her
grandma’s condition, Whereas Julian had acted ahead and immediately sent the video to the media, destroying all possible ways
out of Jared. Otherwise, if Jared deleted the video, the situation would probably become complicated. Preston, Lianne, and their
grandmother would be in danger. For someone as devious as Jared, he would probably burn them all to death, so he would be
able to have Blake Corporation to his himself.
In the past, Lianne thought that no matter how evil Jared was, he still had a shred of conscience and humanity left with him. But
after what had happened to her brother, she finally realized that he was heartless, and he was an animal. Even if there was no
evidence, she knew that the beast was the one who caused her grandmother to vomit so much blood today. Although the video
was made public, there was still a risk. Just like what Michelle had said, they could claim that the old lady was terminally ill,
muddle-headed, and mentally unsound. Therefore, the will she made did not count. After all, the will had not been notarized.
Jared’s roots sunk deep in Blake Corporation and he had many supporters after being at the helm of the company for so many
years, What they had to do next was to transfer their grandmother to a safe place before taking control of Blake Corporation.
They had already called Metropolis Hospital to pick the old lady up just now. Jared stared at the news again. The more he read
it, the grimmer his eyes became. He wondered if there was any way to turn the situation around. “Kill the old lady and deny
everything in the video? “That’s going to be very hard. “Both Preston and Lianne are around. It would be difficult for me to do
anything to mom again. “Moreover, the video has been made public. I don’t think I can deny it. Everyone could see that although
Mom is weak, she has a sober mind. “And a will doesn’t need to be notarized to be valid as long as it is made according to the
testator’s will and is properly constructed and witnessed. “What should I do then?” Jared frowned. If there was no better solution,
he could only think of a way to pin the blame on Preston. He had to find a way to frame Preston for causing the old lady to vomit
blood and accused Preston of feeding her poison. “A person who tries to kill his grandmother is naturally not qualified to inherit
the family business. “But why would Preston want to kill Mom? “Of course, he wants to take ownership of Blake Corporation
sooner. And why does he want to get Blake Corporation?
“Which young man from a wealthy family doesn’t want to be a successor? Not to mention that Preston is my ex-wife’s child. He
hates his stepmother and her children to the bone.” After figuring that out, Jared immediately took out his phone to take photos.
He aimed the camera at the old lady and then at the carpet. Especially the blood that looked appalling on the carpet, he took a
close-up shot of it. Lianne knew to use the power of the media, and so did he, “A rumor told repeatedly will be accepted as truth.”
All he needed to do was to get some people to spread the rumors, Brainless netizens would buy it and chew Preston out. If more
and more people were talking about it, everyone would believe that it was Preston who wanted to kill the old lady. Seeing Jared
taking photos, Preston followed suit. “What are you doing?” Jared asked his son irritably. “I’m probably doing the same thing as
you are,” Preston said coldly. He had been through hell once six years ago. He wouldn’t give Jared any chance to make
baseless accusations against him again. No. Never! Now, it was payback time. Preston wanted to get back everything his father
owed him, his grandmother, and his mother. Jared snorted and continued taking photos. However, Preston was calling 911.
“Hello, I want to make a report.” He wanted to strike first. Jared was probably feeling guilty. He immediately looked up at Preston
and asked, “What are you doing?” “Can’t you tell? I’m calling the police.”
Preston then told the person on the other side of the phone that his grandmother had been poisoned. After hanging up the
phone, Jared scolded Preston. “What poison? Jonathan Woods failed to treat your grandmother. Besides, she’s old and weak
now. That’s why she had a relapse.” “I believe the police will investigate whether it’s a relapse or poison,” Preston said. Jared’s
heart missed a beat. He felt that Preston’s attitude towards him was a bit strange. He couldn’t help but wonder, “Did he find out
what happened six years ago?” Outside, the siren of an ambulance was howling. Preston and Lianne glanced at each other and
helped Grandma up. What are you guys doing?” Jared asked. “Take Grandma to the hospital,” Lianne replied. Judging from
Grandma’s current condition, sending her to Metropolis Hospital to convalesce would be the safest. “Okay, just send her to the
hospital.
I’ll go with you.” Jared reached out to take Madam Blake’s coat. Jared thought that since his mother was so tough, he might as
well send her to the hospital for treatment first. If he could convince her that it was Preston who poisoned her, the old lady would
probably change her will. Seeing that everyone was going to the hospital, Michelle walked to the coffee table and wanted to take
the bowl away. Jared told her off, “What are you doing? Don’t we have servants at home? Do you enjoy doing house chores so
much?” He thought, “This will arouse others’ suspicion? How stupid!” “Lucy, tidy it up,” Michelle instructed. Lucy had mixed
feelings. She still could not figure out what went wrong as she was the one who had been feeding the medicine soup to Madam
Blake. She didn’t understand why the old lady suddenly coughed up blood.
