“Are you home? I''ll being back, as there’s something | have to discuss with
you.” “I am. I''ll wait for you,” Erica replied gently.
With the video and contract in hand, Alex left to meet Erica. Currently, the Tillman Residence looked deserted. In the past, Mrs.
Garner would open the door for him whenever he came home. Now, he had to enter the password himself to open the door.
Upon entering the house, Alex found Erica, who was waiting for his arrival, sitting on the sofa. Erica was specting that Alex
wanted to discuss the future of thepany with her.
“Where’s Mrs. Garner?” Alex asked curiously.
“She quit and went back home since |
don’t need a servant when I’m by myself.” Erica exined. Since yesterday afternoon, she had been watching the news to see if
there were any reports of
dead bodies found in the sea, but not once did the image of Mrs. Garner appear on the news. This made her think that Mrs.
Garner might have disappeared from the face of the earth forever, or perhaps Mrs. Garner had already been. chewed to bits by
the sharks. Regardless, Mrs. Garner no longer existed in this world.
“Erica, were you afraid of being by yourselfst night?” Alex asked as soon as he sat down.
“| was fine. | wasn’t that afraid when | thought of you.” Erica looked at Alex flirtatiously.
After Alex looked at the woman as though he was watching a theater y, he took out his iPad and yed a certain video.
Immediately after, the room was filled with what Erica had said the night before: ‘If you try to refuse me again, | will fire you first
thing the next morning.”
Frightened, Erica nched at once and tried to grab the iPad from his hand like a madman while shamelessly ring at him.
“Why... Why do you have this?”
Alex closed the video before he sneered, “You still have the nerve to ask me? When you were the one who had slept with one of
my employees? Erica Tillman, are you ying some sort of sick game of infidelity with me?’
“What do you want?’ Red with anger, Erica gritted her teech, as she felt she had fallen into a trap.
Alex said nothing further as he threw a contract right in front of Erica. “Sign it!” What is this?” Erica took the contract, all
the while ring at Alex.
‘It''s good news; I''ll be returning all of my shares in Tillman Constructions to you. From now on, you will be holding 701 percent of
thepany’s shares, as I''ll be quitting that wretch of apany.” A look of disgust appeared on his face. “Thepany was
still profitable back when your father was still around, but now, it’s losing millions every day. I’m not going to apany you to
saddle these debts.”
“You... Alex, | don’t get how thepany operates. | know it’s my fault. Please,
don’t go through with the divorce; don’t leave me, okay?” Erica became anxious all of a sudden. Should thepany continue to
lose money like this, bankruptcy would be unavoidable. The shares she held in thepany would amount to nothing in the end.
“Do you think I''ll still want to be with you? | can’t even stand the sight of a dirty woman like you! Now, if you don’t want this video
to be uploaded online for the world to see, sign it!”
Erica broke down. Gritting her teeth, she
trembled all over. I’m not signing this. You were the one who caused thepany to be in this state. Why should I be the one to
bear these debts alone?” “If you want to point fingers, point them at Anastasia, as this was all her doing and has nothing to do
with me. Alex refused to admit that his capabilities were not up to par. Nevertheless, he wished to have nothing to do with Tillman
Constructions anymore since he had already gotten a sum of money from thepany.
‘Sign it.’ Alex threatened once more by bringing attention to the iPad in his hand.
“Otherwise, I''ll upload this online. The whole world will see just how shameful you are then.”
“No!” Erica was on the verge of going crazy, as she knew that her life would be ruined the minute that video was uploaded
online. She would never be able to hold her head up high ever again.
Caved to Alex’s threats, Erica could only pick up the pen and sign on the dotted line before stamping her fingerprint next to her
signature.N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.
After Erica finished signing the documents, Alex took one copy before he said coldly, “Erica Tillman, don’t bother me from now
on. Your father’s affairs have nothing to do with me. | shouldn’t need to remind you that | can easily upload this video anytime |
want if you named me as a participant in the revision of the will.”
