Chapter 0103

The next morning, Alexia left the house, using the excuse of meeting a friend for breakfast. Canceling her meeting wasn’t an option.

Maximus stayed in bed longer than usual–a rare luxury after years of waking up early.

Meanwhile, Leonard searched the mansion for his son but couldn’t find him.

“Emma, have you seen Maximus?”

“He left last night and hasn’t come back.”

“Emma, tell me something–what was my son’s relationship with Mary like?”

“Sir, I don’t think it was ever good. She married very young, and the master took advantage of that.”

Emma didn’t hold back. She’d worked for the Palmer family for years and felt comfortable speaking openly. Seeing Leonard, she decided to reveal the full story.

Leonard was stunned to learn about the suffering Maxmus had caused Mary. The more he heard, the more he realized his son was a monster. It became clear that the Levett family continued to wreak havoc on their lives. He cursed them bitterly, but what could he do now? A new member of their family was growing in Alexia’s womb.

Leonard was reminded of all Catherine had endured. He had taken control of the group at a very young age when it was already in shambles. The Levetts had turned the Palmer family’s life into a living hell. Every time one problem was resolved, another emerged.

Meanwhile, at an exclusive restaurant, Alexia Levett was meeting with Frank Levett.

“Grandpa, I’m finally about to fully join the Palmer family. But Catherine just played her hand and stripped Maximus of everything. In fact, new shareholders have emerged,” Alexia said, feigning

concern.

“That’s impossible! There’s no one else but the Palmers!” Frank growled.

“Do the names Preston and Bartz mean anything to you?

“They’re out of the picture. The Prestons are in Hesperia, and the Bartzs are dead.”

“Well, Marcus Bartz has appeared, and Mary Preston is here. Catherine split the company with them as majority shareholders–Bartz holds 34%, and Preston has 33%. The remaining 33% belongs to the Palmers, leaving Maximus with only 11%. It’s nothing compared to how much he’s worked. It’s a crime,” Alexia said angrily.

“That’s not possible! Catherine can’t do that!” Frank slammed his hand on the table, furious.

“Well, she already did!” Alexia shot back, equally upset.

“Who is this Mary Preston? The Preston family is on the run because of the embezzlement by James Anderson!” Frank declared confidently.
