Divorce Me Before Death Takes Me, CEO

Chapter 210

Audrey’s POV

Rebecca suddenly stood up, cutting him off sharply.

“Dad! Think this through,” she said, her voice strained. “You have a grandson, a granddaughter, Elizabeth, and Olivia. With so many descendants, giving most of your estate to an outsider just isn’t right.”

Thalia also stood up, joining her mother. “Grandfather, if you were giving your assets to someone genuinely kind, I wouldn’t object.” She shot me a cold look. “But giving everything to someone who only pretends to care about you? I can’t accept that.”

My body went still as I realized what was happening. William wanted to give me his fortune? My face went pale.

Me? Inherit from William Parker? Why would he do that? What have I done to deserve this?

William’s face reddened. He slammed his cane against the floor.

and abandoned him!”

“Meanwhile, Audrey had no connection to Blake, yet she took better care of him than anyone! She even married him while he was unconscious!”

He took a breath. “Without her, would Blake have recovered? Would Parker Group still be standing? Would you still be

living in luxury?”

Thalia’s face twisted. “She only did it for herself.”

“Yes, Audrey helped Blake,” Rebecca jumped in. “But hasn’t our family paid her back? Look at the life she had before versus after joining the Parker family. Isn’t that enough? What gives her the right to Parker assets?”

“How dare you!” William shouted at Rebecca. “You think she married into our family for money?”
