Chapter 11


    Read My Past is Just Prologue By Louisa Dillon Chapter 11 – Really Stup*d


    “J, do you still remember that when you were young, you liked to y hide–and–seek. At that time,


    you liked to hide in the closet. Every time I looked for you in the closet, I was sure to find you.”


    Mathilda looked at J with caring eyes, as if the purpose ofing tonight was just to recall the


    past.


    “Really? I don’t remember. Sorry.”


    J smiled apologetically, and the scene was a little awkward for a while.


    Mathilda froze for a moment, then pretended to be indifferent and continued.


    “That wasn’t a big deal, so it’s normal not to remember. You still remember what you hated the most…”


    She recounted almost all the memories she shared with J until Conrad started to be


    impatient. Then, she said softly,


    “J, you just came back not long ago. You don’t know many things. Thepany has changed a lot


    now. Many veterans refuse to ept discipline because of their seniority. Usually, they even dare to


    scold your uncle. Your uncle is humble and honest, and he doesn’t dare to oppose them.”


    She finally got to the point.


    J’s drowsiness dissipated, and she took another look at her “honest” uncle.


    “I heard that you stopped a project as soon as you arrived at thepany today. Is this decision too


    arbitrary? Over the years, the Longfellow Group seemed good, but in fact, it has gone downhill. If this


    financing project is done, it will bring thepany back to life.”


    Mathilda’s words were sincere, as if she was really thinking about her niece.


    J didn’t answer, just quietly watched her acting.


    Conrad, however, felt that his wife had finally gotten to the point. So he cleared his throat and said,


    “Yes, J. You are young and don’t understand how to operate. I haven’t done anything great these


    years, but I’m more experienced. You’re too impulsive, and you might ruin your father’s hard work!”


    “That’s right. Back then, in order to start thepany, my brother only slept for three hours every day


    for a month. In the end, he had stomach bleeding and went to the hospital. You can’t ruin the


    Mathilda agreed with her husband and even started to talk about J’s father. As she said so, she


    wanted to hold J’s hand


    again.


    However, J avoided it. “You said you came to see me today, but I feel that you seem to care more


    about thepany than


    me.”


    She looked at her aunt in front of her with clear eyes, and her voice was colder than the night.


    Mathilda was inexplicably startled. She felt a little uneasy and quickly exined,


    “We are also doing it for your own good. Your uncle managed to negotiate such a big project. If it is


    sn*tched away by others, it will be a big loss for thepany. If there’s something wrong with the


    Hearing this, J sneered in secret.


    Hadn’t she suffered enough?


    J had no intention of socializing with them anymore. She coldly refused, “No matter who negotiated


    it, all projects must


    be verified to ensure fairness.”


    Mathilda and Conrad’s smiles froze immediately.


    Coral had been holding back her anger all night, and finally, she couldn’t bear it anymore.


    “J, stop! So what if youe back? My parents have worked so hard for thepany that they


    almost live there now. You want to destroy everything as soon as you return? Do you still have a


    conscience?”


    She really couldn’t stand J’s superior attitude.


    When J was away, she was the beloved one. But after J came back, she wanted to take back


    everything, and even her parents had to listen to her. Why?


    J paused and looked at her cousin who she hadn’t seen for ten years.


    Everything had changed, except Coral. She was still as stup*d as ten years ago. Whenever she got


    mad, all she could do was a


    curse. So silly.


    She looked at Coral coldly. “Since you know nothing about business, stop and keep being brainless.


    Why did you have to meddle? Do you want to embarrass yourself with your stup*dity?”


    “Who is brainless? How dare you!”


    Coral stepped forward in anger, wanting to hit J, but was startled by a dog bark


    When she looked up, she saw Beacher walking down with his dog.


    “I knew I heard a dog barking downstairs loudly. It turns out to be you.”


    Beacher was dressed in casual clothes. He seemed gentle and harmless, but Conrad, who had dealt


    with him countless times in


    the past few years, knew that he was nothing like his appearance.


    He quickly grabbed his daughter, stopped being an onlooker, and scolded, “What are you doing?


    Juliana just came back, so she is inevitably a little confused. Even if she is unwilling tomunicate


    with us, you can’t hit her!”


    “My cousin is not confused at all. It’s just thatmunication is only for human beings, not dogs. Am I


    right, Mr. Doherty?”


    Beacher had already walked up to J. He nestledzily on the sofa, and the mastiff nestled beside


    him, looking extremely


    leisurely.


    J was speechless. Beacher put on his arrogance again.


    Conrad felt very humiliated, but he couldn’t do anything because he wasn’t in control.


    Now that J was the president of thepany, he could only wrong his daughter temporarily before


    he got what he


    wanted.


    “Coral, apologize to your cousin.”


    “I won’t!”


    Coral raised her head high and refused to admit defeat. She had never apologized to anyone since she


    was a child. Moreover,


    she had always looked down upon J. She would rathermit suicide than apologizes to J!

    “Apologize! You don’t even listen to me now, do you?”


    Conrad was already furious, and he was even angrier after being provoked by his daughter.


    Coral’s stubborn look made Conrad seem to see how J humiliated him in thepany mercilessly.


    Then, he directly kicked


    Coral’s knee.


    Coral didn’t even understand what happened when her legs went limp, and she knelt in front of J.


    “Coral, there’s no need to kneel.”


    J didn’t even try to avoid it. She looked at them coldly and becamepletely disappointed with


    her aunt’s family.


    Coral was stunned.


    She got up from the ground, looked at her parents in disbelief, then red at J. She tried to say


    something but didn’t dare. Then, she mmed the door and left, leaving her parents behind.


    Mathilda took a deep breath, pinched her fingertips into her palm, and forced a smile. “J, don’t


    argue with her. Her words are harsh, but she had a kind heart.”


    She pulled Conrad to get up and said to J like an elder, “J, you should rest well. Your uncle


    knows more about thepany than you, so you can ask him if you have any questions. We’ll be


    leaving now.”


    J didn’t move and only raised her chin slightly. “Okay, goodbye.”


    Mathilda and Conrad walked outside with a smile. Then, their expressions immediately changed as


    they nced at each other and made the same decision tacitly!
