Chapter 6 - Julian Confronts His Shocked Parents Inside The Mansion
“Isabel?! That quiet, ordinary girl from the lower Manhattan design firm? That’s impossible!” Julian yelled in denial.
“She was never ordinary, Julian; her family founded Kensington Global before you were even born,” Arthur corrected bitterly.
“You let her sit at our dinner tables for two years while she quietly bought out our debt behind our backs?” Julian stammered.
“We thought she was harmless, just a quiet companion for your public appearances,” Arthur said, slamming his fist down.
Julian paced frantically across the Persian rug, his chest heaving as the monumental scale of his stupidity sank in.
“She didn't just buy our debt, Julian; she acquired the controlling voting shares of every subsidiary we own,” the lawyer added.
“What does she want?” Julian asked, his voice dropping into a desperate, hollow whisper.
“She wants everything,” Arthur answered, staring blankly at the family crest engraved on the stone fireplace.
