Becoming Alpha’s Personal Caretaker -
Chapter 90
Lauren's POV
"Alpha Manuel, it's been a long while," a dignified voice sounded. Then a man with grey hair walked in from behind. He had a light smile on his wrinkled face but he still looked intimidating. Intelligence and cunning emanated from him. He slowly walked up to Manuel, who had already subconsciously stood up, with a scepter in his hand. "Mr. Matthew," Manuel said gloomily, trying to contain his anger and shock, "what brings you by?"
After all, Mr. Matthew was the former beta and the assistant of the old alpha Blanco. After Grandfather passed away, Mr. Matthew retired and went back to his mansion in the forest. Everyone was shocked when they saw him here. In fact, after getting this file, I discovered that this file wasn't the only leverage my grandfather left me was also his assistant, Mr. Matthew. When I sealed off the file, Mr. Matthew, who had been living in the forest all this time, sensed his call and contacted me.
"I'm here for the matter of the heir," Mr. Matthew said calmly, "before he passed away, the old alpha had left me a secret order to let this file be shown when necessary to protect Miss Lauren's rights, and today I am just here to execute the old alpha's last order." Manuel glimpsed at me, blaming me for not telling him this. He seemed pretty disappointed but I did anymore. I just glanced at everyone in the room and asked, "Now, is there anyone who still has doubts about this file?"
No one raised objections anymore and even Janice could only glare at me, looking reconciled.
"I believe this file is real and that my father cared deeply about Lauren," Manuel immediately pulled it
change this heir only because I have to do what's best for the tribe. Lauren...has done too many things that "Though I'm getting old, I'm aware of our recent issues with the Lunarko Tribe," Mr. Matthew said with "But she has decided to leave the Blanco family and the tribe!" said Manuel frigidly.
"No."
er and sat down slowly, saving his face, "but Mr. Matthew, you might've been out of the tribal center for too long and have no idea what happened. I wanna arm the tribe. Even though I'm her father, I can't let her ruin the tribe and the group."
ht face, "even if you wanna change the heir, you have to get Miss Lauren's consent to give up the inheritance."
refuse your offer of compensation and will not allow Janice to violate my properties and interests. nuel harshly.
looked quite sullen, "You're ruining the tribe!"
I answered him instead of Mr. Matthew and looked Manuel right in the eye as he gave me a warning glare, he premise of me leaving the tribe is that I must take back what belongs to me and I don't want your pathetic charity. You even wanna give the properties that belong to Mother and me to your mistress and her daughter. Do you really think....I would say yes to that? Let me make this clear, I refuse to do that!" I stared right back at Manuel's vicious eyes and said coldly You wanna be a good father? Give them your own stuff, not the properties of me and my mother," I sai Manuel clenched his fists and could no longer suppress his anger. The veins on his neck were bulging "You're the one who's really going to ruin the tribe! You're the one who allowed Janice and Michael to After I finished, I ignored the furious Manuel and slightly tilted my head to ask Mr. Matthew, "If I leave "Together with your mother's properties and the properties that belong to you originally, it should be 35%. Manuel and Janice were both petrified. Janice forgot to hide her emotions and snapped, "That's impossible!" "How is that even possible for you to have so many shares!?" Manuel panicked.
n me and let Janice and Lola take away what belongs to my mother and me!" I raised my voice defiantly. any properties should Manuel give me?"
Well, I didn't have that much at the beginning. But thanks to Victor's funding, and Aunt Claire's management, I did get some money from the company's bonus. However, the company was newly founded and that money was far from enough to purchase that many shares. Luckily, with Victor's help, those small shareholders of the Blanco Group transferred their shares to me in order to let me have more say in my battle with Manuel. And of course, Victor didn't tell me until he had already done all that. He was always like that, a bit overbearing, but also so considerate and sweet. He seldom said sweet talks and made promises, however, his actions already showed his love for me.
Manuel immediately came to his senses, "You bribed them? No way! How did you get so much money? Who's sponsoring you, Lauren?"
"That's none of your business," I said coldly, taking the initiative, "now, what's your decision? Give me 35% of the property and let me go, or do we just continue our stalemate? But your baby girl isn't gonna get a penny." Then, Mr. Matthew handed me the file and gave me the pen in his pocket, saying, "Miss Lauren, once you sign this file, these properties will all be yours."
I took the pen with no hesitation and was gonna sign this file. But then Janice, who had been staring at that file all this time, came at me like crazy. She didn't care about what people might think about her anymore. After all, this was what she had been dreaming of all this time. Her eyes were filled with viciousness and the second she pounced, she wanted to destroy this file.
How ridiculous and pathetic!
For starters, this file had the old alpha's seal on it, which made the file impossible to be destroyed. And I wasn't a pushover. Janice had always thought her wolf was much stronger than mine but now I could easily dodge her attack. Bella came out and slapped her hard in the face, knocking her down and leaving a bloody scar on her face and shoulder.
"Piss off! You stupid bitch!" yelled Belle.
Janice was overwhelmed by the pain.
And even I was a bit surprised at how much stronger Bella and I had become lately. But I didn't have time to think about that. I took out my handkerchief and slowly wiped off the blood on my fingers, staring at Janice wryly, "Don't bother playing the victim this time. I did do it this time. Janice, I have warned you not to get greedy."
Janice covered her face and shouted, "How can you be stronger than me? Did you use some shady tricks on me? That belongs to me! I'm the one who should be the heir!"
She was screaming hysterically like crazy.
I put down the handkerchief stained with her blood and then I grabbed the pen and signed my name calmly. I handed the file to Mr. Matthew, "Mr. Matthew, if there is still a dispute over the shareholding of the Blanco Group, are the shares transferred out by Manuel and the decision of the heir still valid?"
Mr. Matthew was still wearing that faint smile, "Of course not. We'll just need to wait for the result of the negotiation."
"Which means, Miss Janice won't get any of the Blanco Group's properties."
"No! No!" Janice yelled in panic.
I ignored her and said to Mr. Matthew, "Then please deal with the following negotiation for me, Mr. Matthew."
"Of course," Matthew answered, "and I know the old alpha doesn't want Miss Janice to be the heir."
What he said broke Janice down. She was shaken and then she collapsed into the chair, murmuring, "No, no way...That's impossible...She's just a weak and useless wolf! She can't be stronger than I am! Even Michael despises her for her weakness. I'm the best candidate for the heir!"
I turned to look at Janice and let Bella take control of me. I could feel my strength growing because I could feel the fear in their eyes as they looked at me and even Janice was shaking in terror. I spoke coldly, "In the past, I didn't care to compete with you. You're the one who needs to steal what belongs to other people just to prove yourself."
"Lauren, your power..." Even Manuel was shocked.
"My wolf has always been this strong. It's just that you've never paid any attention to me." I snapped.
He would be more surprised if he knew I had the healing power but I wasn't going to tell him. What I just said was enough to shut him up.
Janice wanted to say something but then she trembled out of pain when she heard Bella growling. I turned around and was about to leave.
"Lauren! Have you ever thought of us as your family?" roared Manuel.
"I should be the one to ask that question, not you," I didn't stop for him and kept walking, "and I've warned you before, haven't I?"
The sapphire necklace on Janice's neck suddenly broke, and the sapphire tainted with her blood fell onto the ground and she looked miserable and pathetic now, nothing like the way she looked back then.
I slowly walked out of the room and ignored the gazes behind me.
