Chapter 907


    "Derrick, even if I''m in the wrong, you should help me take care of Damian... and...Ari,’ Joseph


    cautiously said after a moment of hesitation.


    At this point, he had no one else to turn to except Derrick. The two were brothers at the end of the day.


    Joseph could only hope that blood was thicker than water and that Derrick would be willing to help.


    "Well talk about it once they''re out. They''re children of the Tanner family anyway. However, anything


    that has to do with thepany will be under Benny''s care in the future. I won''t interfere in any of the


    Regardless, I can assure you your children won''t suffer.”


    That was the best Derrick could do. If he allowed nepotism to continue in thepany, Tanner


    Corporation would fall sooner orter. Joseph lowered his gaze, a little disappointed. He initially


    thought his children would have a chance to re-enter thepany. Even if they could not hold a


    position as high as they did before, they would still at least be managers.


    However, now that the power was in Benedict''s hands, coupled with what Derrick had said, it seemed


    like there was no room for discussion.


    ‘Well, if that''s the case, there''s nothing much I can say,” Joseph sighed, "By the way, how did you think


    of such a sophisticated n? After all, before you got hospitalized, we all followed the rules."


    ‘Following the rules?” Derrick sneered and looked at Joseph. "Do you honestly think I have no idea


    what happens behind closed doors? Do you think I know how often ourpany''s projects have gotten


    in trouble? Do you think I''ve never questioned the suppliers about the materials they brought?"


    "I..." Joseph had no idea his elder brother knew these things since Derrick had always feigned


    ignorance. Ultimately, Joseph bought into it. The little part of dissatisfaction in him immediately


    dissipated. "I see."


    "Well, I''ll leave you to rest. I''ll-" Suddenly, the door opened as Derrick was about to say something.


    Eloise stood in the doorway and was surprised to see him. A look of embarrassment shed across her


    face before she quickly tidied up her hair. "D-Derrick, you''re here.”


    "Mhm.” Derrick nodded. He noticed her embarrassment and continued,’ Since you''re here, I''ll leave you


    two to talk. I happen to be leaving as well.’


    "Derrick, wait!” She called out. Then she turned to look at Joseph on the hospital bed before pursing


    her lips, saying, "Since you''re here, hear me out. I have something to say."


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Derrick did not argue and stayed. Only then did he notice the folder in her hand.


    Eloise opened the folder and revealed a stack of documents and a pen before passing it to Joseph,


    saying, "Joseph, sign it."


    Joseph was startled. When he saw the words on the paper, his face turned blue.


    "Divorce papers?! Eloise, have you lost your mind?! Why are you asking for a divorce at a time like


    this?!" Although Joseph wanted to get up, it was a struggle in his current physical condition, so he fell


    back onto his bed.


    "I know it''s a bit much for me to file a divorce now, but I don''t want to dy it any longer. After so many


    years, I think I finally had enough," Eloise said,’ I''ve already hired awyer to draft the terms. You can


    take a look at how we''d divide the properties. I won''t take advantage of you, but I''ll take as much as I


    think I deserve.”
