Chapter 453: Chapter 453 I Am Back

Ellen smiled when she saw the surprised look on Jack’s face.

"Images of Jamie being arrested by police are broadcasting live online. From now on, the stock price of the McBride Group will plunge greatly. All the projects and the subsidiaries of the McBride Group will be severely impacted. Even if Jamie is lucky enough to get away with it, he won’t be able to do anything about that anymore!"

The color ran out of Jack’s face. Meanwhile, there was a big smile on Ellen’s face.

She said the cruelest words in the gentlest tone.

"By the time Jamie gets out of jail, the McBride Group will be doomed. All your efforts will go down the drain. A little leak will sink a great ship. Just wait and see!"

Ellen had already thought about the consequences before she did it.

She also thought about what she would do if she failed.

So, Ellen came up with the idea of inviting the media to report on Jamie being investigated by the police.

Jamie had a lot of enemies. As long as the McBride Group slowly declined, Jamie would lose everything he had sooner or later.

And Ellen didn’t have to do anything.

There would be many people who would help her deal with that scum, Jamie.

Moreover, financial crimes carried a maximum penalty of more than 10 years in prison. Jamie was not going to get the death penalty.

Ellen already knew Jamie drove Chris to death. But Jamie didn’t kill Chris himself, so Jamie escaped justice.

Therefore, what Ellen wanted was never to kill Jamie.

She wanted him to see the career he had worked so hard to build destroyed!

Ellen wanted to see people spit on Jamie and treat him shamefully. She wanted him to live like hell!

That was the real revenge!

Jack did not expect Ellen to know so much. Jack’s mockery look disappeared. And there was death in his face.

Jack said, "If anything happens to Mr. McBride, I’m not going to let you get away with this!"

After that, Jack left in a hurry.

Ellen walked to the window. She saw Jamie get into the car in the flashes of countless media.

She let out a long breath.

At least she did not suffer a crushing defeat.

If things went well, Jamie could be sentenced to at least ten years in prison.

Ten years later, all Jamie had worked for, his power and fame would have vanished. He would no longer be one of the big men in New York.

Anyway, whether Jamie went to jail or not, the McBride Group would face irreversible damage.

Based on the current situation, unless the Hawkins family were willing to sacrifice themselves to protect Jamie, Jamie was bound to be put in prison.

The Hawkins family had been framed by Jamie twice. That was impossible for them to sacrifice the family interests to protect Jamie.

Downstairs, behind the transparent car window.

The man inside the car suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the window.

It seemed like that man had expected Ellen would come to the window. He knew Ellen wanted to see him miserable.

But the truth was Jamie was pretty calm from the moment the police showed up. He didn’t show any emotions. And Jamie didn’t look discomfited at all.

Just like now, Jamie was sitting in the car with his legs crossed and his back slightly raised.

Those who did not know what just happened would definitely not think that Jamie was under arrest. They would think that Jamie was going to participate in some high-level summit.

The ward was on the fifth floor. Looking up from downstairs, the person on the fifth floor was the size of an ant.

But Jamie looked up intently as if Ellen were standing across from him.

Ellen took the lead and left the window. She stopped looking downstairs.

Ellen did everything she could. As long as he was convicted, she would be able to start a new life with Bobby, and nothing could threaten them anymore.

This was a life she had longed for a long time, a life she dared not even think about.

But now, it finally happened.

Seeing that Ellen was in a trance, Kenyon comforted her, " Ellen, I have also submitted the material. The evidence is overwhelming. He will not escape justice this time."

Ellen’s heart sank.

She didn’t want to involve other people in this. But in the end, Kenyon still got involved in this.

Ellen turned her head and looked at Kenyon’s handsome face.

Kenyon used to be pure of heart. He was like an angel who helped those who were sick and lame. But now, because of Ellen, he was involved in this strife.

"Kenyon, if Jamie can be convicted this time, you should also stay away from the Corben family."

The situation of the Corben family was complex. Kenyon didn’t fit in that family.

Moreover, Kenyon was deeply hurt when he was in the Corben family.

"I won’t."

Kenyon had got limpid and clear eyes. He said, "Ellen, everything will be fine."

Would it?

Even though Ellen knew that Jamie would definitely go to jail, she was still very uneasy.

The words Jamie said before he left made Ellen feel nervous.

Jamie said, "I’m not going to let you off the hook again!"

That kept popping up in Ellen’s mind. It was like a curse.

...

Yvette stayed in the hospital for three days, but Lance still did not wake up.

During that time, Lance’s fever kept going up.

The doctor told Yvette that one of Lance’s ribs was broken and inserted into an important organ of his own. That was why he was in such a severe condition.

Although the operation was carried out promptly, Lance’s wound became infected after the operation.

The most important thing right now was to get Lance’s temperature down.

If Lance still had a fever at night, he would have been sent to ICU.

Yvette took care of Lance for the whole night and barely closed her eyes.

After dawn, Belle called and said that she missed Yvette and Lance.

Yvette choked back her tears and comforted Belle on the phone for a while.

After hanging up the phone, Yvette returned to the ward and took Lance’s temperature with the thermometer.

It was 99 degrees!

Yvette was happy to see that number. Lance was finally fever free.

Her heart, which had been stretched for the entire night, finally relaxed.

Yvette sat at the head of the bed and stroked Lance’s handsome face.

She said in a low voice, "Lance, please wake up. When you wake up, we can start a new life..."

Lance did not move at all.

It was a poignant moment for Yvette to look at Lance like that.

She held his wrist and slowly pressed it against her face, feeling his pulse.

The feeling of beating made her feel at ease.

Suddenly, there was a great thump.

The door of the ward was pushed open with great force.

"I’m here for my son. If you stop me again, I will fire you!" Tanya’s voice came.

Yvette was stunned. She put down Lance’s hand and hurriedly stood up.

Tanya froze when she saw Yvette. Tanya looked at Yvette with disbelief.

Yvette hadn’t seen Tanya for a few years. And Tanya looked ten years older than before.

Tanya looked sick and old. Yvette almost didn’t recognize her.

Although Tanya always advised Lance to break up with Yvette, Tanya did not do anything to hurt Yvette.

Yvette greeted Tanya politely, "Mrs. Wolseley, nice to see..."

Before Yvette could finish her words, Tanya suddenly rushed to her.

And then, Tanya slapped Yvette.

Yvette covered her face.

She stood rooted to the spot. And she had no idea what was going on.

Frankie was also shocked. Before Tanya raised her hand again, he grabbed it.

He said sternly, "Stop it, Mrs. Wolseley!"

"Let go of me!"

Tanya shook her hand hard. But she didn’t get rid of Frankie. That made her even angrier.

Tanya pointed at Yvette’s face and scolded, "I knew it. It was all because of you! You pest. As soon as you came back, my son was lying on the hospital bed. Stay away from him!"

Yvette’s face was burning. She was stunned when she heard that.

It looked like Tanya had just learned about Yvette’s return.

Frankie reminded Tanya, "Mrs. Wolseley, Ms. Thiel’s been taking care of Mr. Wolseley the last few days. And that’s what Mr. Wolseley wants."

"Get lost!"

Frankie didn’t know what to do with Tanya when she started to make a scene.

"You can’t take care of your boss. What kind of assistant are you?"

Frankie did not say anything. He just lowered his head to listen to Tanya.

After all, Tanya was Mr. Wolseley’s mother.

After that, Tanya picked up the bag and threw it at Yvette.

She said coldly, "I want you to get out of here, too!"

Yvette turned sideways to avoid the bag, and her eyes were cold.

She felt that it was not the same Tanya she once knew.

Tanya now was acting like a harridan. She was no longer that cool noblewoman.

Yvette did not fight back. It was true that Lance was injured because of her.

It was something that was really heartbreaking for Tanya to see. Yvette could understand that.

But that did not mean that Yvette would always put up with Tanya.

"Mrs. Wolseley, I won’t leave here before Lance wakes up. Please show some respect to me, or I will ask you to leave!"

Tanya was furious when she heard that

"Who do you think you are? Lance had abandoned you. Who are you to ask me to leave?"

Every word hit Yvette in the heart, and it was very painful.

Yvette liked Tanya. Tanya once was a kind, motherly woman to Yvette.

Yvette didn’t want to fight with Tanya in the ward. She didn’t want to disturb Lance’s rest.

She turned her head and said to Frankie, "Frankie, please calm Mrs. Wolseley down. Tell her to be quiet in the ward."

Frankie nodded and comforted Tanya, "Mrs. Wolseley, Mr. Wolseley needs rest. Why don’t you go back first? I will inform you when Mr. Wolseley wakes up."

"Why should I go?"

Tanya refused to go. She snorted. "If anyone’s leaving, she’s the one who should go. I’m Lance’s mother."

Frankie said, "But Mr. Wolseley asked Ms. Thiel to take care of him. Ma’am, I hope you understand. If Mr. Wolseley woke up and knew you treat Ms. Thiel like this, he would be unhappy."

Tanya hesitated when Frankie mentioned Lance.

After all, in the past few years, the relationship between Tanya and Lance was tense.

But she was worried when she remembered the predictions from that famous psychic. "I won’t leave here. That pest should go."

Tanya strode forward and reached out to push Yvette. Tanya shouted.

"Don’t touch my son, and don’t even get close to him!"

Yvette was caught off guard and was pushed back. Fortunately, she held the corner of the table so she didn’t fall.

Frankie hurriedly stepped forward. He was trying to hold Yvette.

Just then, applause came from outside.

A man in a black suit walked in and said in a playful tone, "This is quite a shindig."

When Tanya saw that man, her face instantly changed.

"What are you doing here?"

That man seemed to have not heard Tanya. He walked straight to Yvette.

He stared at Yvette with his black eyes for a long time.

Then he said slowly, "Yvette, I haven’t seen you for a long time."

Yvette looked at that man, and it felt like a lifetime had passed!

She moved her lips and called out the name she hadn’t said for a long time. "C-Charlie, why are you here?"

Didn’t he fall into a vegetative state?

How could it be?

Looking at the surprised look on Yvette’s face, Charlie smiled tenderly. "Yvette, I’m back."

Yvette was speechless.

She didn’t know what to say at all.

She was nothing but surprised!

Even though Charlie now looked nice and gentle, Yvette still couldn’t forget the crazy look she saw on his face.

Tanya hated the man in front of her. She especially hated his face, which looked more and more like Lance’s.

"Get out of here. You are not welcome here!"

Yvette still did not understand what was going on there.

Why did Tanya seem to hate Charlie so much?

When did Tanya know Charlie?

The next second, Yvette got the answer to those questions.

Charlie turned around and walked to Tanya. With every step he took, Tanya’s hand clenched harder.

She looked very nervous.

Charlie stopped. And then, he greeted Tanya in a very gentle manner. But what he said was a big surprise for everybody.

"Mother, what are you talking about? Lance is sick. I’m his brother. I should come here and visit him. What you’ve said hurt me."

To say that Yvette was shocked would be an understatement!

Did Charlie just call Tanya mother?

However, Tanya did not appreciate Charlie’s kindness. She scolded, "You bastard, who is your mother? No one will admit that you’re a member of the Wolseley family. Colton, that old baster, fathered you with a whore. And now, you want to be officially recognized as one of the Wolseley family. You are dreaming!"

Tanya swore something terrible, but Charlie didn’t stop smiling.

He said flatly, "Mother, it looks like you don’t know anything yet. I understand you are worried about Lance and didn’t have time to watch the morning news. You should watch it now."

As he spoke, Charlie took a step forward and picked up the remote control on the table. He turned on the TV and switched it to the financial channel.

On TV, the female host was broadcasting the news, "Colton Wolseley, the President of the Wolseley Group, held a press conference at eight in the morning. He announced that the youngest son of the Wolseley family, Charlie Wolseley, who has recently been found, starts to work for the Wolseley Group. Charlie Wolseley is now the General Manager of the Foreign Trade Department. It is reported that Colton Wolseley’s youngest son is..."

Bang!

Tanya picked up the teapot and slammed it on the TV. She shouted hysterically.

"How could Colton, that old baster, do that without my permission? How dare he!"

No matter how angry Tanya was, Charlie seemed calm.

He smiled and said, "Mother, you are joking again. You only have a small stake in the company, so Father doesn’t need your approval before making a decision."

Tanya trembled with anger. She suddenly raised her hand and wanted to slap him, but Charlie grabbed her wrist.

There was a touch of anger in his eyes, and it flashed away. "What? Do you want to slap me on my face? Just like you did to Yvette?"

When Charlie said this, he looked at Yvette.

Yvette’s cheek was red. It was heartbreaking for Charlie to see.

The corners of Charlie’s lips curved slightly. He clenched his hand around Tanya’s wrist.

"Let go of me, you little bastard!"

Charlie enjoyed the painful expression on Tanya’s. He reminded her in a gentle tone.

"You’re Colton Wolseley’s wife. Watch your mouth and behave yourself. If the press gets a picture of you looking like this, it will not be good for Lance either. Don’t you think so?"

His tone was gentle. But his words were full of threats.

Tanya was so painful that she could not speak. In the end, she was old. Cold sweat crawled down her face when Charlie clenched his hand.

"Mr. Raison, please let go of Mrs. Wolseley." Frankie saw that something was wrong and quickly stepped forward to stop Charlie.

Charlie smiled. "I am talking with my mother. Who are you to interrupt?"

Frankie directly reached out to pull Charlie’s hand. But before Charlie could touch Charlie, two bodyguards came from outside and held Frankie.

Charlie said to the bodyguards, "Take him to a coffee break."

What awaited Frankie, of course, was not a real coffee break.

Frankie was very agile.

But there were too many people in the ward. Frankie was worried that he would accidentally injure Yvette and the others. So, there was nothing he could do.

After Frankie was taken out, Yvette couldn’t take it anymore and said, "Charlie, let go!"

Charlie stopped smiling. He was confused. He looked at Yvette. "Yvette, she hurt you. Don’t you hate her?"

Yvette said coldly, "That is a matter between Mrs. Wolseley and me. It has nothing to do with you. Now, please leave this ward!"

After knowing that Charlie was the illegitimate child that Juliette once mentioned, Yvette suddenly became alert.

He was not a simple person!

The smile on Charlie’s face disappeared when he heard Yvette’s words.

His handsome face was covered with a dark shade that made one’s hair stand on end.

He let go of Tanya and grabbed Yvette’s chin. Yvette was forced to take a few steps backward.

"Yvette, it’s been a few years, but you still don’t know what’s good for you."

Yvette felt she was caught in a vice-like grip. She grabbed Charlie’s hand and tried to get rid of him.

"Let go, let go of me."

Charlie pushed Yvette against the wall, bent down, and said with a twisted expression.

"Let go? Yvette, I came back for you. Didn’t you promise to go with me?"

The man’s words made Yvette tremble!

Charlie got closer and closer. He said in Yvette’s ear, "I’m going to take you anyway, and I don’t care if it’s your body."

Yvette opened her eyes widely and looked at the man in front of her. She thought that Charlie was crazy!

Charlie turned his head. His lips got closer and closer to Yvette’s.

Yvette struggled with all her might but still could not get rid of him.

"Let her go!"

A low shout stopped Charlie’s movement.
