She Got A Better Man

When Karen heard this, she was seething with resentment toward Judy. "Right now, Judy's investment has failed, and at most, we'll lose 40 million dollars. The rest of the funds came from investments she brought in, so they aren't our losses. "Since it's an investment, we don't have to pay it back. The company might not survive. I'll leave the hospital and go to the bank to see if I can secure a loan to keep the business running for now."

Karen, after more than forty years in the business world, was no stranger to hardships. While the situation was serious this time, she wasn't about to give up without a fight. Even if she couldn't salvage it, she could always file for bankruptcy and start

over.

"Mom, you have to hold on, okay? Our family is counting on your Vincent said, looking at her with concern. He had just learned that Amber had betrayed him, Judy wasn't even his daughter, Marsh's whereabouts were unknown, and Elvira had cut ties with the family. Now, the only person he had left was his mother, and it made him feel terrible.

"Don't worry. I'm okay. You try to mend things with Elvira. Although she's difficult, it's not entirely her fault. Our relationship with Elvira has worsened, and Amber and Judy are tied up in it. If we can convince Elvira to come back, that would be the best outcome. "Besides, she's doing well now. After Judy's big failure, she won't be able to escape her role in it. And with Zach behind her, she could really help our family." Karen's hatred for Amber and Judy burned deep. Those two had deceived her for over twenty years and alienated her from her own grandchildren. They were truly unforgivable.

"Mom, after what happened yesterday, I can tell Elvira really doesn't want anything to do with us anymore. Even when you were at your risk, she did nothing to help. That shows just how much she hates us.

"I really don't think there's any hope with her," Vincent said. The events with Amber and Judy had opened his eyes. Elvira truly wanted nothing to do with him.

"Whether there's hope or not, you still have to try. If that doesn't work, we'll approach Zach. He can't be as heartless as her, can he? Alright, that's the plan. I need to focus on my treatment, so you handle this. Do what I say." Karen, as always, was resolute. Karen's fury toward Amber and Judy only intensified. "Those two who've toyed with my emotions... just wait for my revenge, she thought.

Vincent went to the company, and the first thing he did was check the accounts. What he found made his blood run cold. Judy had transferred all the money from the company's accounts, dozens of transactions, each ranging from hundreds of thousands to one million dollars.

Using this gradual method, she emptied the company's funds.

Vincent felt like the world was spinning as he grabbed the finance director by the collar. "Who authorized you to let this much money be transferred to the same person without my mom's approval?"

"It was Mrs. Willis and you who gave the orders. You said that if Ms. Willis needed the money, it could be transferred without approval I did warn you that this wasn't a good idea, that it was giving her too much power, but you insisted.

"I could only follow your instructions," the finance director explained.

"Even so, don't you find it suspicious that she's been transferring money so frequently recently?" Vincent's head was pounding. The company's remaining funds had been completely drained by Judy. 10:29 Fri, Dec 13 GT

"I was just following your orders. Everyone knows you all dote on Ms. Willis. I didn't think there was a problem," the finance director said, feeling wronged. This was something they had explicitly approved, and now it was being blamed on him. Vincent knew arguing further wouldn't help. He gave orders that from now on, all financial transactions must be strictly according to the rules with no exceptions.

The finance director agreed, though with a sour expression. "Mr. Willis, the company's payroll for last month hasn't been issued yet, and several payments haven't been transferred. Our partners are starting to complain. What should we do about the money?" "Don't worry. I'll figure something out." Vincent left the finance department and immediately reported the situation to Karen. Upon hearing the news, Karen was furious but kept her composure. "I have some personal funds.

"You take those for now to handle the emergency. Make sure the company stays afloat."

Vincent took the money his mother transferred and gave it to the finance department, but it was just a drop in the bucket. The company's financial hole was growing too large to cover.novelbin

Meanwhile, in Judy's hospital room, the police walked in and said. "Judy, the chairman of Willis Group has reported you for embezzlement, and the amount is substantial. If you return the money now, you might be able to get a more lenient sentence.

"But if you don't, with the amount involved, you could face at least ten years in prison. And that's not even considering the charges of kidnapping and attempted murder. You'll spend the rest of your life behind bars."

Judy didn't even lift her eyelids. Coldly, she said, "I've already spent all the money. Do whatever you want with the sentence." The police tried to scare her further, but Judy didn't even glance at them. She acted like their words couldn't touch her. After they left, the officers reported the outcome to Vincent. Vincent was so enraged that he almost smashed his phone. At that moment, he wished he could strangle Judy with his own hands.

Morris and Cheryl's movie was released on schedule, and as Elvira had predicted, it was a massive hit. Not only did it make her a fortune, but it also catapulted Morris and Cheryl into the A-list, making them the hottest stars in the industry.

No longer were they the helpless victims they once were, bullied and overlooked. With their newfound fame, they were now in a position to negotiate with any major corporation on their own terms.

Morris and Cheryl began flying all over the country for promotional events. Numerous endorsement deals came pouring in, including offers from luxury brands.

At first, they were both a bit overwhelmed by their sudden rise to fame, not used to the crowds of fans waiting for them at airports, and the large security teams escorting them everywhere. But after a while, they became accustomed to it. They both couldn't help but reflect on how far they had come. Neither of them had ever imagined they'd be in such a position. All of this, they knew, was thanks to Elvira.

At that moment, Elvira noticed that her period was more than two weeks late. With her busy schedule, she hadn't thought much of it, and when she finally remembered, she decided to buy a pregnancy test from the pharmacy just to check She didn't have high hopes. After all, she had been trying for a long time without any luck. So, when she took the test, she didn't think much of it. She tossed the stick casually onto the windowsill and went to answer a phone call. After finishing the call, she didn't even think about it again, not expecting anything to change.

It wasn't until later when Elvira went to the bathroom again that she happened to glance at the pregnancy test and was shocked to see that it was positive.
