At that moment, the Shephard family was also in a heated argument. Camila had doting parents, and they were upset because Audrey had taken advantage of their naive daughter. Regardless of anything else, they demanded an explanation from George and Helen. Audrey's parents, on the other hand, were so furious they wished they could hit someone.

"If it weren't for your foolish daughter, things wouldn't have reached such a disastrous state.

"What you're saying is quite absurd, Helen. If it weren't for your daughter's shameless actions, dating Josiah only to marry Caleb, carrying a child, and treating others like fools with her disgraceful behavior, she wouldn't have been driven out by her husband's family." George and Helen were livid. Had it not been for the intervention of other relatives, both sides would have

almost come to blows:

Just then, the phone at the Shephard family's residence rang. Surprisingly, it was Caleb's assistant on the other line when they picked up.

George's face stiffened. Before he could utter a word, he heard the other party say, "I am here to formally notify Ms. Shepard on behalf of Mr. Caleb. Tomorrow, the divorce proceedings will commence. She is to leave with nothing. If she fails to show up or causes any further complications, regardless of the reasons, we will gather evidence and demand compensation. So, please consider this carefully and act accordingly.

After saying that, he hung up the phone without any hesitation.

George almost lost his footing. Just as he was about to discuss what to do next with his daughter, his personal phone rang. It was a call from work.

"Mr. Shepard, we're in trouble. Hampton Group suddenly called to say they're not signing the contract We've also received word from Xaven Project, they're halting collaboration. Even our suppliers have hinted at bad news. Apparently, Hampton Group has spread the word that they won't work with any supplier who collaborates with us. As a result, our suppliers have all indicated they won't be cooperating with us next season. W-What's going on? Are they trying to crush our company?"

At that moment, it was as if George heard the impending collapse of Shepard Group, and finally, he could no longer hold on and fainted.

News had quickly spread among the Shephard family. No one had expected Caleb to be so ruthless and swift in his actions. He had forcibly broken down the door, dragged out a secretly grieving Audrey, and compelled her to kneel and beg for forgiveness..

However, Audrey was unable to get in touch with Caleb at all. When she tried to contact Noah and Lorelei, she was met with harsh warnings and insults. In the end, she could only engage in heated arguments with. her relatives, causing such a ruckus that ambulances and police cars were constantly coming and going from the Shepard residence.

Meanwhile, on the other end, after handling the matters of Audrey, Caleb turned to Josiah, who had been beaten unconscious by their father. Caleb coldly addressed Noah and Lorelei.
