Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 199

Theo just had an accident and several of Grant Corporation's businesses got into trouble at the same time. Even a fool could tell that this was no coincidence.

However, I had thought of countless possibilities of who could have been behind it but refused to believe that Theo would set me up.

He looked at me with a sullen expression and said with a cold voice, "You think I'm using you, pushing you out to be Grant Corporation's scapegoat?"

"Weren’t you?" Although I could not believe in Zedd's words completely, they made some sense. Although I refused to believe it, I had no choice but to admit the truth.

I looked at him with anger in my heart. "The new product release is obviously a very simple matter, but from the day you handed it to me, there have been obstacles along the way. Also, you put me in charge of the factory acquisition, which has worn me out completely because I needed to read a lot of information every day."

I paused and looked at him. There was not a single expression on his face. He hinted at me to continue.

I shrugged and continued, "Actually, you were only doing those things so I would sign several Mid-Nutri documents because Grant Corporation needed a company's liquidity to make accounts. You picked Mid -Nutri and me so that even if something happens, it'll not drag Grant Corporation down. The things that happened after that are just as you predicted. I became the scapegoat as you planned."

He narrowed his eyes and gave me a sideways glance. "Your reasoning is correct but a little far-fetched. Why would I still need to make such a big detour if I wanted you to sign something?"

I could not figure out this point but I firmly believed in my own judgment.

I then said, "You were the one who planned this all along. That's why you allowed it to happen until the point of closure before letting Zedd come back to handle it. Your goal is simple. You want to buy loose shares at a low price and then sell them at a high price later. One way or another, the company's market value will grow at an incalculable rate and it’ll pave the way for your development in Whaldorf City."

He looked at me with a profound look in his eyes. After a very long time, he said, "You’re my wife. It'll not be beneficial for me if anything happens to you."

I looked at him and could not help but laugh. "But I'm the best candidate, no?"

Not many owned decision-making power in the company. Mason and Zedd were his best buddies and they planned to build a career together in the future. H e would not let anything happen to them. What he had left was me, the indispensable one. I was about to give birth and would eventually leave the company anyway.
