Chapter 8

Lucille sneered, her arms crossed as she radiated a powerful aura. "Do I need to remind you that this house is the inheritance left to me by my mother? You all are the ones who should leave!"

Before her death, Lucille's mother had bequeathed to Lucille a vast inheritance, including the Jules Villa and 40% of the shares in the Jules Group.

It was much more than the 30% share held by Howard and the 10% share held by each of her other three brothers.

In other words, Lucille was the largest shareholder and had the most say in the company.

Despite this, the Jules family had been suppressing her and using her as a punching bag.

They were truly heartless and cruel.

Howard's face changed slightly. "How do you know all this?"

"I not only know that, but I also have the will and property deed in my possession. I didn't say anything before out of consideration for our family ties, but now that you're treating me this way, I won't be kind to you anymore!" Lucille sneered.

"This villa belongs to me, and if you don't want to be kicked out, you'd better listen to me. Otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind!"

Hearing this, the three of them were overcome with fury.

Lucille didn't pay them any more attention and went straight into the house, slamming the door shut with force.

Charles looked at Howard in disbelief. "Dad! Is what she said true? Did Mom really leave the house to her?" Howard took a deep breath, indicating that it was true.

This news not only stunned Charles but also hit Zoey hard.

Lucille, who had always bullied her, suddenly became the owner of the villa. How could she accept this?

"Sorry." Zoey sobbed, her head bowed. "It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have to endure this humiliation."

Howard and Charles looked at her with tenderness. "It's not your fault, Zoey. Don't worry, we won't let you suffer. I'll personally teach this heartless girl a lesson someday." Howard said so, but he had a different plan in mind.

The will had always been his biggest concern. He didn't care about the house, but the 40% stake in the Jules Group was what he valued most.

No, he couldn't let that rebellious Lucille take it away. He had to figure out how to get the shares back!
