Chapter 10

 “What do you want?” Matilda asked through gritted teeth

 “If you’re really sorry and want to make it up to me, transfer 3% of Berry Group shares to me, just like you did for Helen. After all, I’m a member of the Berry family too. I deserve it,” replied Lea

 Matilda held 15% of Berry Group shares. When Helen was sixteen, celebrated as a genius for supposedly inventing the artificial brain, Matilda had transferred 35 of the shares to her, making her the richest minor in Vaporeon City.

 Who gave you the gut to ask for shares? Marilda seethed. She started to stand up, ready to lunge at Lea

 Berry Group was valued at 20 billion dors, and az amounted to around 600 million dors. Matilda couldn’t believe Lea dared to ask for such a

 Sum

 Christian gave Matilda a sharp look, and she immediately stopped, not daring to touch Lea

 A p of thunder sounded outside, and the rain poured harder. Matilda remembered Helen still kneeling in the rain.

 Manilda knelt again, crying to Christian, “Christian, look at her! I’ve raised her for so many years, and now she wants to take my shares!”

 Christian looked at Lea, utterly confused.

 Lea stepped closer to Matilda. “Those shares belong to the Berry family. I’m a Berry too. Why shouldn’t I have them?”

 She picked up the medical reports from the ground, holding them up to Matilda. “You im you raised me? Do I need to remind you how you abused me? Besides, the artificial brain, new drugs, and medical devices I developed for Fraley Medical, aren’t those worth more than 3% of the

 shares?”N?velDrama.Org is the owner.

 Matilda was stunned, trembling. All these years, she had controlled Lea, making her work like a robot on the artificial brain. She never thought Lea would tell Christian

 “No, Christian, she’s lying” Matilda shouted, pointing at Lea “She’s crazy! How could she invent such high–tech things? She thinks she’s a genius? It’s all lies! She’s lost her mind! Send her to a mental hospital|”

 Hearing “mental hospital,” Lea snapped, “Matilda, I gave you a chance to apologize, and you nder me?”

 She turned to Christian, saying, “I kept quiet for the sake of the Berry Group, for the Berry family. But now, I see this family isn’t worth it. I’m cutting ties. Take care.”

 Lea turned and walked out into the rain, her steps firm and without hesitation. She had stayed because she cared about Christian, but now she saw

 he didn’t care about her.

 After leaving, she could team up with Alfred. Soon, she would make a name for herself and eventually take over the lerry family’s assets.

 “Come back, Lea! Come back!” Christian shouted.

 Lea ignored him, kept walking, called a car with her phone, got in, and drove away.

 In the hall, Christian stared into the thick curtain of rain, Lea’s figure already vanished.

 “Where is she?” Christian asked.

 “She called a car and lef,” a servant replied.

 His body swayed, and he sank into a chair, his face turning pale. He hadn’t expected her to leave so decisively. He initially doubted Lea had invented the artificial brain, but her bold move to leave the Berry family made him reconsider.

 “Christian, are you okay?” Matilda, still kneeling, grabbed his hand with concern.

 He pushed her away. “Matilda, how could you do such things?” He tapped his cane on the scattered medical reports. “Do you want Lea to take these and sue you? If this gets out, along with what happenedst night, what do you think will happen to the stock prices of the Berry family and the Fraley family? You know better than I do. Don’t you fear Helen’s future and reputation bring destroyed?”

 Matilda trembled, and she copsed to the floor. She knew Christian was truly angry. She never expected him to stand up for Lea and use Helen to

 threaten her.

 “Mr. Berry!” A servant rushed in, urgently reporting. “Miss Helen has fainted!“

 “Christian, Il transfer the shares to Lea 111 bring her back and apologize, beg for her forgiveness. Please forgive me, Matilda cried, her face

 contorted with despair.

 “You’re no longer the Vice CEO. You’ll manage the marketing department instead. And you better spend more time properly educating Helen,” Christian dered.

 Matilda shook with shock. Losing 3% of the shares and being demoted was more than she anticipated. But with Helen’s condition in mind, she had no other choice

 1 understand, Christian,” she said weakly.

 Christian thenmanded the servants, “Take Helen to the hospiulTM”

 “Yes” The servants immediately left.

 Matilda hurried out to check on Helen. Before leaving, she turned to Christian and said, “Christian, I’m sorry. I know I made mistakes. I’ll change. and Ill do better in the future,”

 Christian walked to the window, watching as Matilda drove away in a ck extended Bentley with Helen. He sighed deeply, feeling utterly exhausted. “Jeffery, was it a mistake to leave Lea in her care?”

 Jeffrey considered his words carefully before responding, “Miss Lea her was severe enough”

 Christian finally rxed a bit but remained puzzled. “Do you think Lea was telling the truth?”

 “About the artificial brain and the new drugs from Fraley Medical! Jeffrey thought for a moment. “These areplex matters. Thepany’s research team has been working on the artificial brain for years. As for the other things, Im not sure

 Thepany had been investing heavily in developing the flight control system for the artificial brain Matilda probably attributed the team’s aplishments solely to Helen.

 “But if she’s willing to give up 3% of the shares, Lea must have been involved Christian said sharply. He understood that Matilda wouldn’t part with the shares unless it was trus

 “You’re right, Mr. Berry Jeffrey agreed.

 “Find Lea and bring her back. She’s a minor, penniless, and leaving home like this is too reckless, Christian ordered, his frustration evident.

 “I’ll go right away. Don’t worry. Mr. Berry. I’ll bring her back soon” Jeffrey replied.
