Chapter 59

In the grand Lancaster Mansion, the hall was filled with tension as the entire

family gathered.

Grandma and Grandpa Lancaster sat at opposite ends of the table, anger burning

in their eyes.

On the left side sat Sophia, Jack, and their parents, Justin and Florence.

On the right side were Malvin, the firstborn, his wife Linda and their children, Mike and Lily.

"Now, you tell me, how did the Lancasters lose $100 million of company money and end up with BioHealth Solutions, a company drowning in debt for the same amount?"

Abraham started, his voice thundering through the room.

"This is all because of that boy you forced to marry Sophia! Amelia spat, her voice sharp. "Chris Roland said we were supposed to get the partnership, but that loser convinced Kingston to do otherwise!"

"I heard the partnership was supposed to go to the Lancasters because Alex asked Kingston,” Abraham shot back, his voice rising. "But since you bribed Roland, whom Kingston despises, they chose the other option!"

"That's how Jasmine twisted the facts!" Amelia accused, her finger pointed accusingly.

"That loser is the reason for all this mess."

The meeting had dragged on for an hour, but it was all just finger-pointing with no real solution in sight.

"Alex warned you not to give the money, but all of you believed that Chris, and now look-we've been scammed!"

"What do you know about it?!" Amelia snapped back. "It's your loser who caused all of this!"

Grandpa Lancaster sighed deeply. "We can't agree on anything anymore... Let's divorce."

The entire hall fell into stunned silence.

"Father," Justin finally spoke, his voice strained. "You and mother are already so old. Why divorce now?"

"None of you respect my decisions," Grandpa Lancaster replied bitterly.
