Mr. Chairman’s Devious Wife by Brey Mitchylle

Chapter 91

“Do you not understand anything?” Teresa chided. “To think that you are a daughter of someone like Lawrence Lockhart, yet you are actually this stupid.” Teresa arched an eyebrow.

“We cannot intervene in this matter, or our enemies will think that we have something to do with your father and this smuggling ring that the government is trying to destroy. Do you think we are that stupid?”

“But my father is innocent.”

“Innocent?” Teresa smirked. “Did you truly believe your father is a saint?”

“He is not. He might have committed some sins but… he would not do something so stupid as this. He worked so hard to slowly crawl his way up to the top of the food chain. Why would he risk everything for something like that?” Charlotte came here because she was helpless. She thought that the support of the Beaumont Family would help her father. However, she never thought that Mrs. Teresa Beaumont would become this useless.

It was a good thing that she knew a few pieces of information about Teresa and the Beaumont Family- information that was enough to ruin their perfect family image.

Charlotte was forced to reveal her cards when Teresa threatened to harm her unborn child. Because of these cards, Teresa asked her people to let Charlotte go, and they finally had the chance to have a decent conversation.

However, it seems that Teresa is still not convinced that she is worth helping.

“I never thought of doing something pointless,” Teresa said. “Why would we involve ourselves in your matter when it has nothing to do with us? Besides…” Teresa narrowed her eyes. “Don’t you know that Alexander Beaumont is currently helping your sister?”

“What?” She heard rumors and even saw some gossip about the two online. However, she never thought that Alexander Beaumont would involve himself in the matters between the Lockhart Family. “I— I don’t understand. This has nothing to do with Mr. Beaumont. Besides, Sofia doesn’t exactly have anything that could give him. Mr. Beaumont was a man who was even greater than Lawrence. He has the wealth, the power,

“Besides, Mr. Beaumont is your son… can’t y

“Let’s stop wasting each other’s time,” Teresa said. “I do not owe you any explanation. The only reason why I am letting you go now is because of what you told me earlier. However, you do not have to act confident around me. I still do not accept you in the family. You may raise that child as yours, but that child… will never be one of us.”
