Chapter 1522 Rotten to the Core
Ophelia's failed marriage had turned her into a laughing stock in Hawford. To make matters worse, Noah had heartlessly transferred his marital properties early on. What were those wasted years in the Whitman family even for?
"That scumbag must pay the price! Isn't the world all about feminism these days? Let's stir the pot like everyone else!' Ophelia demanded.
The Montclair Group had always been a family business. Aside from Tamia, none of her children possessed much intelligence.
Despite being aware of the fact, Lennox and his peers remained in the company out of loyalty to the late Camden Montclair, the Montclair family's former head.
When they heard Ophelia's demand, all they could manage was a bitter chuckle. The incompetent scions genuinely believed that the public would be swayed by mere words. How absurd!
The video had laid bare their misdeeds. Rather than upholding the dignity expected of an aristocratic family, they had stooped to illegal and immoral acts by drugging someone.
If they were found guilty of conspiring against the Whitman family, they would face complete ruin. Yet, they remained as obstinate as ever.
The senior executives shook their heads in disappointment, realizing that the foundation that Camden built was now crumbling.
Tamia had wielded her authority for so long that she couldn't care less about the executives' advice. If the Wray family devalued human lives, then Tamia viewed those earning less than millions a year as lowly.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
It appeared that those of higher status didn't quite deserve their positions, after all.
Tamia openly questioned Noah's reason behind the early transfer of his marital properties online. She demanded explanations regarding his chat histories and insisted that Ophelia had been wronged in every way. She also pressed Reuben for answers.
Having employed a similar tactic in the past, Tamia believed she would succeed again. Yet, in an age of advanced digital information, no one would fall for her games.
Ophelia mistakenly believed that Noah had known the truth all along and despicably planned for their divorce. What she didn't realize was that Noah had been giving her numerous chances over the years.
Hoping to spare Cyrus from a traumatic experience, Noah had always opted for the mildest approach to resolve matters. If the Montclairs hadn't crossed the line and Ophelia had been more mindful as a mother, he would've never disclosed the truth.
For years, no one questioned his dedication as a caring husband. Though he might not have loved Ophelia, he had dutifully fulfilled his obligations to her.
However, the Montclair family had persistently harmed the Whitman family. No matter how incompetent he felt, Noah refused to let his wicked spouse bring about his family's downfall.
Deep down, Noah understood that such matters couldn't be deferred, especially since Cyrus had been raised to become nearly useless. He realized it was time to make a decision.
Upon discovering the conspiracy between the Wrays and the Montclairs, Noah promptly transferred a portion of his shares to Taylor and Marie while allocating the rest to Cyrus.
Most ordinary men might not have acted with such decisiveness. In families with long histories, siblings often ruthlessly competed for their share of the inheritance. However, the Whitman family was different.
In the business community's early days, there was a well-known saying-no matter how furious Taylor might be, he would always listen to Noah upon returning home.
With someone as dependable and composed as Noah at the helm, the family's decisions and direction remained sound and reliable.
