Chapter 8 - Wealthy Relatives Whisper Behind Crystal Champagne Flutes
As the heavy oak doors closed, the remaining family members began whispering frantically among themselves.
“I've never seen such absolute chaos at a family dinner; what has gotten into Marcus?” an aunt murmured.
“He finally snapped after years of watching Victoria treat his wife like an unpaid domestic servant,” an uncle replied.
Victoria, still wiping red sauce from her face, glared furiously at anyone who dared meet her gaze.
“Stop gossiping like cowards and help me figure out how to destroy them legally!” Victoria hissed angrily.
“Victoria, calm down; Marcus controls a massive block of voting shares in the family holding trust,” a cousin noted.
