Chapter 1148


    Karan insisted that Tyler had fessed up. Yeah, Tyler did admit it, but Liana hadn’t heard it for herself.


    She was at the hospital at the time, and all her news came from Karan So, when Liana saw Hubert


    paying off those little thugs, she was gobsmacked But at the same time, she was confused if it wasn’t


    Tyler’s doing why would he admit it?


    Liana wanted to clear up these questions, but Karan was clearly not going to spill the beans. She


    hesitated for a moment, then walked over to Karan, squatted down beside her like when she was a


    child, put her hand on her leg, and looked up at her.

    “Auntie, I’m your favorite girl I’ve always considered you as a mother figure We’re both from a small


    vige, and we should care for each other, help each other, trust each other You know Damien Howell


    is still young, his cousins are eyeing the inheritance. The Howell family is a shareholder system, maybe


    one day, these cousins will take over, then Damien’s position as heir will be in jeopardy. Even though


    I’m in A City now, I have a lot of clout behind me. The Laurence family can influence the Howell family


    If you trust me and tell me the truth, then I will help Damien be the heir of the Howell family in the


    future.”


    These words were indeed touching and hit Karan right in the feels Before Tyler’s death, she was


    worried that Tyler would be the heir and kick her out of the Howell family Now, she had to worry


    about Damien’s cousins for her son’s sake.


    This shareholder thing is seriously annoying, it’s like anyone can stick their nose in. Clearly, Hackett


    Howell is the chairman, even though the Howell family was built by all the siblings together, but Hackett


    was the head honcho. Why should other people have a say in the heir’s position?


    Karan was so pissed off just by thinking of it, but she kept silent, looking into Liana’s clear eyes. She


    felt like Liana was not trying to trick her into revealing the truth, but regardless of whether Liana was


    trying to trick her, Karan could not spill the beans. Instead, she needed to keep Liana on her side, so


    she could help Damien in the future, and use the power of the Laurence family behind her, to be


    Damien’s biggest backup.


    you


    Thinking about this, Karan lifted her hand, ced it on Liana’s hand, gently patting while praising her


    for her understanding. “Liana, I’m so grateful to have a niece like You’re willing to help Damien, and I


    won’t let you down. When the Howell family redistributes the shares, I’ll have a word with your uncle,


    and you will have your share”


    This way, both Liana and Damien would have shares, and when it came to choosing the heir, Damien


    would definitely be the top dog, no one could surpass him


    Hearing this, the bookish Damien sitting beside them had a shadow flicker in his eyes. The Howell


    family’s shares had already been allocated, if Liana were to join in, wouldn’t that mean even less for


    him?


    If Liana knew the truth and chose not to help him, but instead helped others, wouldn’t that be like


    creating an enemy for him? Rather than taking this risk, they might as well keep Liana out of the Howell


    family business entirely, to avoid future trouble


    Considering these, Damien put down his book, took off his sses, and gave his scheming mother a


    cold look, “Mom, didn’t you tell Hubert to hurt Liana? Why not admit it?”


    Karan was stunned by this remark.


    Her wide eyes seemed to ask, how do you know?


    Damien, seeing through her thoughts, said expressionlessly. “Two years ago, when you and Hubert


    were arguing in the room, I happened to overhear”


    Two years ago, Hubert dide to her for money Unwilling to support this greedy man any longer,


    Hubert threatened her with that incident, which led to their argument. She never thought Damien would


    overhear….


    Damien was only five at the time, but he remembered so clearly. Why didn’t he tell her right away?


    Why wait until she proposed giving Liana shares to bring it up? Did he feel


    threatened?


    Karan’s shocked eyes met Damien’s indifference, her heart pounding..


    Because she suddenly felt like she didn’t know her son at all. She was more scared than when Aidyn


    used her of being the other woman. At least Aidyn med her for her wed values, used her of


    not trying hard enough to change, but the feeling Damien gave her was a deep–seated indifference….


    She suddenly felt that this kind of person could hurt his own family for his own gain, let alone this


    feeling wasing from a seven–year–old…


    Karan was a bit scared, wanting to stand up and teach Damien a lesson. She felt that he was only


    seven, and there was still a chance to educate him. But she was stopped. by Liana


    She looked down and saw Liana’s pale face, bloodshot eyes, and trembling body. She realized that


    Liana knew the truth, and quickly denied, “I… I didn’t, it was Damien who misheard. He was only five


    then He didn’t understand anything.”
