My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 396

Chapter 396: Revenge On Her Evil Uncle! (2)
Bella narrowed her eyes at Thomas, feeling like she wanted to whack this man’s mouth with her high heels.

Before Thomas could say anything, Bella interrupted him to express her anger.

“How can you say that word when you, sir, behave like that precisely? You teamed up with your brothers to, in a way, sell me to Bradley Caville in an immoral act of marriage arrangement. And you were aware that your brother was sending bandits to kidnap me. And yet, you didn’t stop them! Your silence and inaction is complicity, sir.”

“Bella—”

“Mr. Thomas! I’m not done yet! And I expect you to continue to remain silent. It seems the best thing you can do is silence, JUST like before!” Bella hurriedly said when she saw he was about to speak.

Thomas swallowed hard, feeling his throat starting to hurt.

‘Damn it! How dare she stop me!? Ask me to be silent?’ Thomas couldn’t help but vent his frustration while looking at his furious niece. He tried hard to maintain his calm expression. However, hearing her following words, his calmness shattered.

“Mr. Thomas, you also contributed to wrecking the company your dear father, my grandfather, built. And now you dare to call me CRUEL AND HEARTLESS? Did you leave your brain somewhere, or do you simply not have one left inside that thick skull?”

Thomas was left speechless. He didn’t expect to find out that his niece had such a sharp tongue—sharp enough to pierce his heart. His face slowly turned red; he was too angry to deny that everything she said was true, and he was powerless to stop her.

“How dare you call me cruel and heartless? Mr. Thomas Donovan, you should go to the powder room and take a good look at yourself in the mirror. Then you’ll see who the real cruel, heartless, and shameless one is here…”

Thomas wanted to vanish from this room. He couldn’t win speaking to this sharp-tongued and sharp-witted girl! He turned his gaze away, looking scared and limp, pretending he was too exhausted by Bella’s scold.

“Pft!” Emma almost burst out laughing upon hearing Bella scolding Thomas and looking at how weak her brother was before Bella. It instantly put her in a good mood. “I’m so sorry, Bella… Don’t mind me. Please continue,” she said when Bella glanced at her, suddenly worrying that Bella was bothered by her sudden laugh.

Bella smiled at her beloved Aunt Emma before turning her gaze to Thomas. However, she is left speechless when she sees Thomas seemingly ignore her despite his frail appearance.

Well, at least now she didn’t have to waste time speaking to her brainless uncle. She turned to look at Jacob; her business with him was not yet settled.

“Mr. Jacob Donovan—” Bella’s sharp voice was enough to make Jacob look at her intensely.

He didn’t say a word, but his heart beat loudly. He tried hard to maintain his composure and was apparently successful.

“The official outcome of the shareholder meeting is to remove and replace you as CEO of this company. Therefore, from now on, you will no longer be the CEO of the Donovan Group. Please clean your desk and pack your things. The company’s website will have an official announcement within the next twenty-four hours,” She calmly ended her words.

Bella was impressed by Jacob’s calm expression. She felt happy because she didn’t have to waste any more time fighting with him.

Jacob looked at Bella with an expressionless gaze but horridly cursed her in his mind.

How could this little bitch treat him like this? He would have lectured her if only his father hadn’t been with them.

‘HAH!!’ Jacob shouted inwardly to lessen his anger.

However, when Jacob felt slightly better, Bella continued to torture him and almost caused him a heart attack.

“Please sign this letter, Mr. Jacob,” she said as she took a brown folder from her bag and placed it before Jacob.

“What is it!?”

“It’s a letter to transfer all your shares to me. Don’t worry. I won’t take your shares for free, but I will buy them at the current market price—”

“What the fuck are you trying to say, Bella?”

This time, Jacob could no longer hold back his anger. He cursed his niece and didn’t care when his father glared at him. He was too angry to hear this little girl ask him to sell his shares. Is she crazy and stupid?

“You can hear me clearly, Mr. Jacob. Why are you asking again? Please read the paper carefully and sign it!” Bella looked and sounded calm. She didn’t feel offended or scared by his anger.

“Bwahaha—” Jacob laughed loudly, mockingly at Bella. “Do you think I will sell my shares to you!? Stop dreaming. I will never sell my share! You can only have it over my dead body!”

Bella smiled. She felt amused looking at her uncle’s arrogance and foolishness. She said nothing and let him finish his words.

“Even though I am no longer the CEO of this company, I am still a shareholder, and you can’t stop me from attending the next shareholder meeting! Hahaha!” He arrogantly expressed his annoyance and added an unmistakable forced laugh. “You can’t force me, Bella! YOU CAN’T! HAHAHA….”

Bella didn’t respond to Jacob immediately but chuckled at his arrogance, causing Jacob to frown. Looking at her calmness, he started to feel worried.

“Fine! However, you must return all the company money that you embezzled and used for personal gain and expenditures,” Bella paused her words to enjoy how Jacob’s face slowly turned pale.

“You know what, Mr. Jacob? Earlier, I offered to buy your shares because I still have slight pity in my heart as you are my grandpa’s eldest son. But it is clear that you refused my kindness. Therefore, regretfully, you must pay and return everything you took from the company.”

Bella took a deep breath, expressing her regret in an obvious manner. She pretended to feel sad for him.

Jacob gasped and didn’t know what to say.
