As soon as the phone was answered, Gregory’s eager voice came through, “Paisy, it’s me”
“Mr. Sultan, if you have something to say, say it. Don’t waste time with pleasantries” Paisley said, her tone distant.
to things that didn’t involve her core principles, she would tolerate them.
Paisley’s personality could be deceptive. When it came to
This often gave others the impression that she was easygoing and easy to manipulate. But in reality, she was a person who paid attention to every
btle detail.
On the other end of the line, Gregory hesitated. If they were face to face, Paisley would have seen the reddish color creep into his face.
But over the phone, all she could hear was him taking a deep breath before continuing with the same polite tone.
“Palsy, did you see the Instagram post?” asked Gregory carefully
“I saw it,” she replied.
Gregory’s tone became a little higher, “Paisy, since you saw it, you should know that I truly realize my mistakes. I’ve already asked Brittany to leave the Sullivan family. From now on, you’re the only daughter in this family. My good daughter. Can you forgive me?”
Paisley’s skin crawled bearing him call her his “good daughter.”
“Alright,” she awered with a smile.
“Really?” Gregory was clearly relieved. As long as he had Paisley’s forgiveness, the Sullivan family could maintain its former glory. No, it could even go further
However, before he could rejoice too much, Paisley’s voice came again. “If you want me to forgive you, it’s not impossible. Give me full control of the company and all the shares. You step down. If you do that, I’ll forgive you”
“You” Gregory was taken aback. He knew that to earn Paisley’s forgiveness, he’d have to pay a price, which was why he posted such a statement online. But he hadn’t expected Paisley to go straight for the company.
“Paisy, you’re my daughter. When I get older, this company will eventually be yours. There’s no need to rush.”
Paisley sneered, “How’s that for sincerity? You want me to forgive you! Do you think a simple statement can erase the past? Mr. Sullivan, you’re dreaming”
With that, she hung up the phone, not wanting to waste any more time with Gregory. As for Sullivan Group, she had no interest in that failing company. A business that was rotten from the core wasn’t worth anything
She logged into her Instagram account, saw the statement Gregory had tagged her in, and reposted it with a comment: [Not me. I’m not a Sullivan]
With Nion’s sharp reply, the internet was once again filled with mockery. But this time, the target of the ridicule wasn’t just Brittany, but both Brittany and Sullivan Group.
Back at the old house, Brittany watched the escalating ridicule online and wished she could crawl through the internet and strangle everyone who was commenting.
She was finished. This morning, she received a call from her agent, telling her that the company had decided to temporarily shelve her career and wouldn’t be giving her any more resources or opportunities for the time being.
This meant that she wouldn’t even be able to take minor roles in online dramas.
“Paisley, Paisley, it’s all your fault, all your fault!” Brittany’s finger jabbed at Nion’s Instagram profile on her phone, as if doing so would somehow. reach Paisley.
When Christina returned from the supermarker, she found Brittany nearly in a frenzy, jabbing her phone so hard that her nails were split. “Oh my gosh, Brittany, what are you doing? You’re bleeding Christina put down her groceries and rushed over, grabbing Brittany’s hand, which was starting to bleed from her fingertips. “What’s wrong with you, hurting yourself like this
Brittany yanked her hand away. “Dad already issued a statement saying he’s ended the adoption contract. I’m no longer the Sullivan daughter. The only daughter of the Sullivan family is Paisley. So why are you still bothering with me!
