Chapter 33

These words obviously hit Shirley's sore spot, and she stepped forward and slapped Paula hard.

"Don't be complacent, sooner or later I'll drive you away."

Paula covered her face and laughed triumphantly, her eyes shining in the dark as if they were on fire.

"Then we'll see if Mr. Jordan is willing to let me go."

With that, Paula strode into Brandon's room and turned off the light.

I watched Shirley stare in the direction of Brandon's room for a long time, then stomped her foot in frustration.

The next day, after Shirley made breakfast, Paula and Brandon sat down.

I thought Shirley would have the same gloomy expression as before, but to my surprise, she was unexpectedly calm,

She even reached out and gave Paula an egg.

Of course, besides me, Paula was also surprised, after all, last night Shirley seemed to want to eat her alive.

I frowned, what's wrong with Shirley today? Is she crazy or has she changed her nature?

From what I know about her, Shirley is probably brewing some other plan in her mind, otherwise, she wouldn't be so calm.

After all, Shirley was chosen by Brandon to do things, she has some scheming.

After breakfast, Brandon and Paula went to work.

After feeding the kids, I walked to the living room, and Shirley was sitting on the sofa watching TV, as if nothing had happened last night.

I felt a bit strange, but Kathy left me a message asking me to go out and meet him, so I couldn't care much, I drugged Shirley as usual, and after she fell asleep, I left home and went to the place agreed with Kathy.

It was a members-only restaurant, the waiter led me to a very private room, Simon and Kathy were already sitting and waiting for me.

Seeing me sit down, Simon took out a thick file bag from behind him: "What you want to know is basically all here."

I was delighted, quickly took it and started reading eagerly.

Simon is thorough in his work, so the information is also complete.

As I read, he said to me, "Renee is a drug addict, so she knows a lot of people in the black market, so the Jordan family contacts the black market through her."

"You started feeling unwell after giving birth, right?"

I nodded, I thought it was because my body hadn't recovered well, could there be another reason?

Seemingly knowing what I was thinking, Simon nodded at me: "Yes, Brandon bought poison through Renee's black market connections and poisoned you."

"But Brandon's idea is extremely vicious, he was afraid that directly poisoning you would be found out, so he first poisoned you to make your body worse, and then used drugs to slowly exhaust your life."

Kathy couldn't hold back anymore: "Fuck, Brandon is such a bastard."

Simon continued: "Also, I suspect that the Jordan family members were all involved in poisoning you."

I had already thought of this, last time I went to the company, Irene and Earl were not surprised to see me at all, which means they had planned this conspiracy against me together.

Kathy slapped the table: "Their family is really cold-blooded and shameless? If it weren't for Caroline marrying Brandon, they wouldn't have been able to move up the social ladder, now they live in a small villa?"

"Brandon's mom was still collecting scrap back then, and now they've forgotten all about the old days in just a few years? A family of ungrateful people."

"Caroline, you must take back the company, you can't let this bastard family take it."

I nodded, this company is my father Gerald's lifelong effort, I once trusted it to Brandon, now I must take it back completely.

Simon nodded, frowning slightly: "But this is very difficult, the Jordan family is colluding with each other, they have already controlled all the top positions in your company, and even many relatives are placed in middle positions, now although it is nominally yours, it has become Brandon's family business."

"If you want to take it back, you must plan carefully, and you can't let Brandon find out about our plan."

I nodded: "He is already transferring assets abroad, so we must do a good job of keeping it secret."

Simon nodded: "There is more information, you can take a look."

I continued to read: "Earl and Irene can be said to be the most powerful people besides Brandon. But there seems to be some friction between them."

"Earl is young, while Irene has been in the workplace for many years, so Brandon obviously trusts Irene more, which leads to a lack of centralized power distribution."

"Earl is now eager to prove his ability, but so far he has not achieved much."

Simon and I exchanged a glance, feeling that we both thought of the same thing.

Kathy looked at us and said: "What are you planning?"

Simon gestured for me to speak: "Earl is so anxious now, why don't we send him someone as our undercover, he probably doesn't have time to check this person's background carefully."

"This way, if something happens in the company, we can get the news out in time."

Simon nodded: "That's right, and I happen to have a candidate, with good business ability!"

My eyes lit up, Simon is indeed reliable.

I only had a rough idea, but he had already found a candidate.

"Then I'll trouble you, thank you so much."

Simon lowered his eyes and smiled lightly: "You're welcome."

Kathy patted Simon's shoulder with a smile: "Caroline, don't be polite with him, his fees are not low."

I nodded, I was already mentally prepared, even if it costs me everything, I must take back my children and company, then everything can start over.

Simon didn't say anything, but continued to take out some documents from the file bag.

"The next thing you need to be mentally prepared for, Brandon's actions are really disgusting."

I was a bit curious, what could be so shocking that Simon would say that.

He took out a stack of documents and placed them on the table: "I investigated Elora and found that she and Brandon have another family, and they have a child together."

I was shocked, looking at Simon in disbelief: "What did you say?"

Simon placed the photos he took in front of me, showing Brandon and Elora taking their child to a restaurant.

All three had smiles on their faces, a picture of a happy family.

"According to my observation, Brandon takes time every week to accompany Elora and her child, I went to the child's school and found that the person picking up the child is none other than her."

Simon pushed a photo towards me, showing an old lady holding the child's hand, and that old lady was none other than Brandon's mother, Karen Sinclair.

In other words, their whole family already knew about Elora's identity and accepted it.
