"Adrienne, I advise you not to struggle any longer and sign your name here obediently. I promise you that I will treat you and your brother well in the future." Barrett could see Adrienne's hesitation and know how stubborn this daughter was.
Adrienne remained silent and would not believe what he said.
She knew Barrett too well. She was cold in nature and would not please him, unlike his other sons and daughters who all smiled fawningly at him when they saw him, but in fact they were all secretly plotting against him.
Leilani has always conspired to get her mother's shares, but in the end, she failed to get them and lost her children instead.
Marcia and her father's fourth wife seem unambitious, but in reality they were both secretly conspiring.
She hated her father's promiscuity, and even more, she hated the fact that he had produced so many vicious sons and daughters that had made her childhood so bad.
She held no hope for her father.
Adrienne picked up the pen and aimed it at the artery in her neck as Barrett watched. "If you push me any more, I’ll kill myself right in front of you. You're the ones who got me killed, and the police will surely arrest you."
"Adrienne, I’m really disappointed in you." Barrett was furious. If they keep pushing her, she’s probably gonna kill herself./n
Dahlia sneered, "You're so stubborn. Since you don't want to sign, why don't we talk about who is actually helping you in secret?"
With Adrienne's ability, she could not even get rid of this family, let alone solve the crisis in the company.
Adrienne glared at her harshly. The moment she relaxed, the pen in her hand was snatched away by the bodyguard.
"B*tch, don't think of others as stupid as you. No one help me. I've learned a lot of things these years."
If they knew that Victor had helped her, then she and her brother would not have survived in this world.
She knew why Barrett hated the Alwynn family so much.
Did people like her father deserve love? He abandoned the woman he loved, and that woman jumped to her death. The funny thing was that he wanted to blame someone else for it. What a ridiculous father he was!
"It's impossible. You can't settle everything in the company by yourself." Dahlia didn't believe her. As soon as Adrienne signed the share transfer contract, she can get some shares today too.
After all, she was being favored.
"So, you only deserve to be someone else's mistress. Because you don't have the ability, you only want to get money from a man. He can be your father at his age. You really make me sick." Adrienne's words were sarcastic and embarrassing to Dahlia.
Barrett slapped her on the cheek again, "Adrienne, you are too much." Barrett's face was red. He did like Dahlia's young body, but he couldn't allow his daughter to say that out loud.
He could have done that, but he felt embarrassed inside by his own daughter saying that.
The slap caused Adrienne to spit out a mouthful of blood.
She spat a few times on the ground and held back her tears.
Brian, who was watching them from a distance, shook his head at the scene. What a cruel father!
"Stop." Morgan's furious voice was deafening.
"Why did you come back?" Barrett was a little surprised that Morgan knew something had happened to Adrienne.
Morgan sneered. "You want to force my sister to sign?"
Barrett looked at him. He used to lower his head when talking to him, but now he talked to him in an imposing manner. Sure enough, he used to be in disguise all the time.
"Morgan, are you trying to rebel?" He shouted angrily. What two ungrateful children!
"Rebel? Do you think you're living in the Middle Ages? Let my sister go." Morgan looked worriedly at his sister's red and swollen cheek. His sister would not be overwhelmed by the affairs of the company. Only his father's desperation would make his sister this wretched.
"Alright. Since you have come personally, then sign your names before you leave. Sign the papers and get out of the Simpson family. I don't have a son and a daughter like you." Barrett threatened them, feeling that they were nothing without the shelter of the Simpson family.
Morgan looked at him with a sneer. "Don't worry. After we get out of here tonight, my sister and I will set up our own business and will not take the last name Simpson."
"Morgan, you...."
Before Barrett could finish his sentence, with Morgan's order, four or five bodyguards rushed in.
These people were well-trained. Soon, they had the two bodyguards and butler in the house under control. After being kicked, Dahlia crouched quietly at the foot of the wall. Morgan untied the rope on his sister's foot as fast as he could and helped her up.
"Adrienne, are you alright?" Morgan looked at his sister with worry. He came too late and made his sister suffer.
