Chapter 322 She's Your Sister
The moment Michael said that, everyone was stunned.
Even the usually composed Admas immediately objected, "You brat, what the hell are you talking about?"
Paramount Airlines was the life's work of Michael's parents and Admas, and now he was willing to give it to others?
Michael ignored the people trying to stop him. His sharp eyes were fixed on Ben. "But if you lose, you'll give me half of your company's shares. Do you dare?"
Ben had struck out on his own, founding a successful financial company.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
It was doing well, but it was nowhere near the scale of Paramount Airlines.
If Michael demanded half of the shares, Ben's company would no longer be his own.
This bet... To Ben, the risk was too high.
"So, Ben, are you in?" Michael pressed on, forcing Ben to make a decision.
Ben couldn't believe Michael actually dared to play such a high-stakes game.
"Enough of this crap! We need to deal with the media now, not to play your stupid games!" Admas intervened, killing the bet idea instantly.
Ben agreed with Admas, saying, "Michael, we can bet anytime, but the priority now is to handle the media's news."
Chloe, who had been silent, finally spoke up, "This whole mess started because of me, so I'll handle it. I'll clear up the rumors online and make sure the Shawn family faces no further trouble." Jennifer glanced at her. "You? And who's going to believe anything you say? Chloe, this is serious. Don't make things worse."
Jennifer had always been more calculating and pretentious than Victoria.
After a moment of silence, Victoria said, "Michael, you mentioned holding a press conference this evening to clarify Cathy's situation, right?
"No matter what, Cathy is your cousin. As her older brother, you should clear her name."
She believed that Chloe had caused Cathy's current troubles.
"I know Michael's never been close to the family, so it's understandable if he doesn't want to get involved. Businessmen weigh the risks and rewards, and I'm the same way, so I get it." Ben added fuel to the fire, trying to stir up more chaos in the already troubled Shawn family.
Cathy pleaded, "Please, you have to help me. If you don't speak up, no one will believe me, no matter what I say! I never knew that surveillance video would get out!"
Chloe, who hadn't planned to respond, couldn't help but speak up when she heard this, "Don't you think this video doesn't look like surveillance footage at all? You didn't go for the massage alone that day, did you?"
Chloe's words made Cathy realize instantly. "No, I wasn't alone! I went with Lucy!"
The answer was now obvious.
Two friends went together, but only one appeared in the footage, and the other didn't. It was too fishy!
Cathy froze for a moment, then suddenly understood. "Mom, it was Lucy! She put me up to it! She must have filmed the video!"
Lucy had been to Shawn Manor before, on Admas' birthday.
Back then, Lucy seemed quite petty to Victoria, but Lucy was much better compared to Chloe. But Victoria never thought Lucy would set her daughter up like this! She was furious, clenching her teeth in anger!
"Chloe, that Lucy. She's your sister, right?" Jennifer suddenly spoke up in the silent crowd.
Chapter 322 She's Your Sister
Everyone gasped. Except for Michael and Admas, no one else knew about Lucy and Chloe's relationship.
The two had never mentioned it because Lucy and Chloe didn't get along well. There was no need to say anything. But no one knew how Jennifer found
out.
"Chloe, very well, I knew you had a hand in this. Your sister exposed Cathy's scandal to cover up your own, didn't she? You two sisters are really devious!"
