    “Mother, it’s all my fault. Please, find it in your heart to forgive me. | will deeply reflect on my actions upon returning.”


    “Forgive you? It’s easy for you to utter those words. You nearly took Marcus’ life.”


    Suddenly, a scalding cup of coffee crashed upon Brock’s forehead.


    Brock, now bleeding from the impact, widened his eyes in shock. His gaze met udia’s, his fingers gripping his knees with


    intense force.


    When it came to intimacy, Brock, as udia’s eldest son, had never received praise from her. Instead, she seemed to suppress


    him at every turn.


    Now, a significant portion of the Thomas Group''s shares belonged to Marcus.


    udia’s treatment felt genuinely unjust.


    “your eyes reek of greed and self-interest.” As udia caught sight of her eldest son’s spiteful gaze, her anger intensified,


    prompting her to rap her crutch against the floor.Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    “No, that’s not true. | genuinely repent and beg for your forgiveness. | hope you can see the sincerity behind my actions. | was


    too eager to pressure Marcus into signing the contract. But it’s clear that he stands to profit in the end. So why did Marcus refuse


    to sign?”


    udia pounded her chest, feeling deeply disappointed in him.


    “Why won''t he sign it? Haven''t you realized it yet? The Dayen Group’s financial situation is dire. They’re setting us up!”


    Brock stood dumbfounded. He hadn’t expected udia to uncover the truth behind the scenes.


    “Mother, are you serious? | had no idea they are penniless!”


    Brock began to act like he had no idea of what was going on. In truth, he was well aware of the Dayen Group’s situation. If he


    insisted on signing a contract with them, it would only result in losses for the Thomas Group, and he had already pocketed a


    substantial sum.


    Marcus sat silently on the side, stealing a nce at Derek.


    Derek, on the other hand, retrieved a stack of documents from his pocket and handed them to udia.


    “Mrs. Thomas, please take a look at these documents,” he said.


    udia epted the papers and came across a photograph showcasing the head of the Dayen Group offering a bribe to Brock.


    Upon reading through the documents, sheprehended the truth and furiously flung the photo at Brock’s face.


    “You''ve truly disappointed me. You’ve embezzledpany funds for your own benefit. Don’t forget that yourst name is


    Thomas. From this point forward, you will no longer be responsible for the Novus Group. All of its operations have been


    transferred to the headquarters. You will go abroad to study, and you are not allowed to return without my permission.”


    “What? No! I’ve dedicated my entire life to Novus Group. It cannot be taken away from me,” Brock eximed, his emotions


    running high.


    If udia stripped him of Novus Group’s business, he would be left idle in the future. How could he fulfill his ambitions?
