Chapter 1045 No One Escapes Punishment
Fabian sighed, musing that a person would change over time. Perhaps Declan had been blinded by his greed, or maybe he had simply overlooked Declan’s true nature.
With a solemn expression, Fabian calmly stated, “Do you seriously think I came unprepared? Check your
shares.”
Declan’s smug smile instantly faltered. He turned to the relatives, who merely looked at him in confusion. Declan swiftly took out his phone to make a call, yet only silence greeted him.
“I’ve always treated you as my brother, yet you never think of us as family. To you, we’re the stepping stones to your selfish goals, but that’s as far as you can go,” Fabian slowly continued as he approached
Declan.
If someone were to ask about Declan’s deepest fear, “death” wasn’t on the list. What haunted him most was the loss of everything he worked hard for and his standing in Kingbourne.
The memory of his impoverished past still lingered in his mind, and he absolutely refused to experience it
again.
For years, he had plotted and schemed to seize the Quinnells‘ wealth and prestige. Alas, not only were his evil plans exposed, but he had also lost all his shares.
It seemed that Fabian was determined to crush his chances to rise again.
At that point, Declan could no longer keep his cool and roared, “You can’t do this to me!”
“Yes, I can. As long as I’m standing, no one can destroy the family. It may falter or face bankruptcy, but it will never fall into your or the Foplyans‘ hands.” Fabian refuted with a determined gaze.
Turning to the crowd, Fabian sternly declared, “I’m sure everyone here has learned the whole truth. From this day onwards, Declan is no longer a part of the Quinnell family!”
His downfall came so suddenly that Declan barely had a chance for further arrangements, and it was all because of a girl he dismissed the night before.
Wynter’s prior behavior led Declan to believe that someone backed her schemes. He thought that she was only somewhat clever, only to realize he had underestimated her.
Wynter had been playing the fool all along. In truth, she held complete control over the unfolding events.
Declan glared at Wynter and wondered aloud, “Is this your doing? To be honest, I believe I have covered my tracks well. I didn’t even intervene in Noami’s affairs. How did you know it was me?”
Wynter cast a glance at Jolene and calmly replied, “You were so eager to push this foolish woman into my brother’s life that you left clues behind.”
Hearing that, Jolene quickly distanced herself from Declan. “What are you talking about, Wynter? I only met Mr. Declan yesterday.”
However, Wynter exposed her lie. “You’ve met him before, haven’t you? You’ve been drowning in debts
