Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 254

Jerome’s body went rigid, and his eyes snapped open. “Joanna, what are you saying? Are you threatening me?”

Joanna feigned innocence. “Threatening you? Of course not. I’m just concerned about your health. You just said you didn’t even have the strength to lift your hand. You can’t sign a paper, but you have the energy to look at your phone?”

“You don’t love me anymore,” she pouted.

“So, giving you my shares means I love you, and not giving them means I don’t?” Jerome retorted. “Joanna, you know that five percent is my only source of income. Are you so benevolent that you need to take that from me, too?”

He shut his eyes again.

Just then, a police officer entered the room, interrupting whatever Joanna was about to say.

“Mr. Scott, Ms. Sanders has arrived. We need you to come down and give your statements.”

Nathan exchanged a glance with Joanna. “Of course, officer. We’ll be right there.”

He walked over to the bed and placed a pen in Jerome’s hand. “Jerome, sign this quickly. The company is in trouble, and I need these shares to help your mother.”

Jerome knew the company was struggling and that his mother was holding it together alone. “Fine. I’ll give the shares to Mom. But I won’t give them to you.”

“Alright,” Nathan conceded. “Just sign your name, and the shares will go to her.”

The paper was specially treated; the name would become visible under light, allowing him to manipulate it as he pleased.
