Chapter 302

This document, unbelievably, demanded that they transfer all their assets- unconditionally-to Claire.

Without their money, how could they possibly survive?

What would become of their son, living abroad?

But at this point, they had no choice.

Sean had connections everywhere; he was not someone they could afford to cross.
