The soft calm voice entered Kaylee’s voice. Though they seemed soft and didn’t have any warning, Kaylee felt that her good days were numbered.
This made her regret doing what she did but after some time, she changed her thoughts and regretted not making sure that Rhiannon had really died.
The shareholders left one by one after Rhiannon left as they didn’t see the need to show courtesy to the Adams.
Although Rhiannon had given her father the position, they could all tell that she was planning something, but they didn’t dare ask or guess as they had seen what a person she was. They sighed as they thought of her sudden change and they guessed that it had to do with the fire.
Mr Adams looked at his daughter and felt that his years of spoiling her had been fruitless and that she wasn’t as half considerate as Rhiannon.
Kaylee felt the glare and turned her eyes. “Dad, what’s the matter?”
Her tone was respectful and polite but it carried some fear in it.
She had lived with her father thus she knew what kind of a person he was. If he loved and favored you, you will earn greatly but if you oppose any of his decisions, he will stop and even treat you like an enemy even if one is his family.
There was no need to be told that her father now had some opinion about her and currently, Rhiannon was the most favored one.
“No need to pretend, I have now seen what kind of a person you are,” Mr Clark replied to her question coldly before leaving not giving her a chance to say anything.
Seeing her father leaving and having been left alone, Kaylee bit her lower lip as her eyes turned cold which that she could everything in her hands as she knew that only with power will her father respect her and show her a different attitude.
The door was opened and Aoron walked in.
“Why are you the only one left behind?” Aaron asked with a frown on his face.
“Why should I hurry up to get out that to be met with mocking eyes?” Kaylee asked sharply as she looked at her fiancée.
For once, she felt that the man in front of her wasn’t good enough.
She had taken him from Rhiannon as she loved snatching the latter things since they were kids. Hence, to her, if Rhiannon found out about their relationship, she would be hurt but it wouldn’t matter as they had planned everything out. Hurt her then kill her. Also, the man in front of her was a young master from a wealthy family, they were richer than the Adams thus she wanted to get into that family but now.
She wondered whether she had made the right decision by snatching him.
“Why are you talking like that? Also, what’s up with that look?” Aaron asked as he didn’t appreciate the way the latter was looking at him.
“How do you want me to look at you? You can’t keep Rhiannon under your nose? Now she is married, what use do you have now?” Kaylee asked coldly as she didn’t see the need to curry favor with him.
“Watch the way you are speaking to me! My family is richer than yours and has a lot of things. I have more money than you have! You still need me even though you pretend that you don’t,” Aaron replied coldly.
During the time he had been with Kaylee behind Rhiannon's back, he enjoyed himself and gradually fell in love with her, that’s why he did everything she wanted him to do and spoiled her to the extent that she thought he was the one who needed her.
“You! Who do you think you are to be proud of your father’s properties while you are just an illegitimate son who won’t even inherit a single share?” Kaylee retorted as she was never one to lose battle.
Furthermore, they had been together for so long that they knew each other well and what hurt the most.
Aaron wasn’t angry when he heard that as that wasn’t anything new to him, instead he laughed loudly.
“Yes, I am an illegitimate son but I think that I am better than you since people know that I am a bastard, but what about you? What do you think people will say when they find out that you are a bastard and not Rhiannon as you have been going around saying? Do you think that those rich young ladies will ever think of entertaining you are and even inviting you to their banquets? Also, better since I can inherit my father’s businesses and my mom is rich, what do you have other than poor parents? Your mother is from the countryside while your father depended on Rhiannon’s mom’s money to get where he is today. Do you know that many things that you guys have should rightfully belong to Rhiannon? I was a fool to even believe you and cheat on her.”
He was never one to entertain someone who he knew couldn’t bring benefits to him. He would have continued being with her but seeing the hatred, disgust, and dissatisfaction in her eyes, he didn’t see the need to stay around.
Kaylee was angry when she heard his words but was unable to refute them since she knew that what he said was true. She wanted to apologise but she was too proud to do so.
“Now that you refused to give your father what he wanted, do you think that he can continue being on your side? Although he might not necessarily be on Rhiannon’s side, he won’t be on your side either. Look where your selfishness and greed have led to. It would be a miracle if he would ever hand those shares to you. I always thought you were wise but never knew that you were so stupid,” Aoron added with a smirk when he saw her fury.
“You!” She said in between her teeth as she looked at him with a lot of hatred she couldn’t accept the fact that he was so indifferent and didn’t care what had happened.
“Excuse me both of you but you do need to leave,” a guard said immediately he opened the door.
“Why should I leave? Don’t you know who I am?” Kaylee asked angrily as she didn’t see any problem venting out her anger on the guard.
The guard looked at her with disdain and smirked. “I know who you are but sorry, the company doesn’t belong to your father anymore! Also, you aren’t an employee here so what right do you think you have to stay here?”
“I am one of the shareholders! Is this the way you talk to them? Don’t you think that I can make sure that you are fired?” she asked arrogantly as she felt that she had indeed done the right thing by obtaining the shares.
“The other shareholders who don’t work here have already left why haven’t you? Also, the president is the one who has instructed me to make sure that you have left this premises.
