Chapter 252

With the cops at the doorstep, Howard and Tommy freaked out. Lex stepped forward and glanced atWyatt. As the patriarch of the Callahans, he had heard of him.

“Mr. Jeremiah, could this be a misunderstanding? How could they have committed a professionalcrime? What have they done?!

Wyatt glanced at James.

James took a step forward and said, “It was me who reported them to the authorities.”

“You?”

They fixed their gaze on James.

Tommy burst into a fit of rage. “James, you piece of trash! You’ve been leeching off the Callahans sincethe beginning. How dare you call the cops on me! And on what charges? Just what did I do?!”

Howard said coldly, “This isn’t over until you give me an explanation.”

Thea pulled at James and questioned, “James, what are you doing?”

Everyone stared coldly at James, their gaze filled with hatred. What was he thinking, calling the cops?James turned to face them and replied coldly, “I trust Thea. She wouldn’t do anything that broughtshame to the family. I knew someone must’ve framed her, but I didn’t know who. So, I reported thematter to the authorities. They arrested Yosef, and he confessed to everything.”

As he spoke, he looked at Howard and Tommy.

“Little did I know, it was the both of you who’d been plotting against Thea all this while.”

“You…” Tommy took a few steps back and collapsed on the sofa.

Howard’s face was as white as a sheet.

Lex looked at Wyatt and said, “Mr. Jeremiah, could this be a misunderstanding? This is simplyconcerning a family’s internal affairs. How could it constitute a commercial crime?”

Wyatt paid no heed to Lex and said coldly, “Since someone’s reported the case to us, it’s ourresponsibility to get to the bottom of it. Yosef has confessed to everything. First, Tommy gave him ahundred thousand dollars to deliver sub-standard and expired medicine to Eternality Hospital. Then,Howard gave him a million dollars and instructed him to frame Thea. If you have anything to say, do itat the police station. Seize them!” A few policemen stepped forth and pulled out handcuffs.

They forcefully handcuffed Howard and Tommy.

Wearing a grim expression, Howard remained silent.

Meanwhile, Tommy cried out, “Grandpa, save me! I don’t want to go to prison!”

Under the gaze of the Callahans, Howard and Tommy were taken away. David recollected his sensesonly after the policemen had left. He secretly gave James a thumbs up.

Smash!

Lex slammed his cane on the table angrily and roared, “What have you done, James?! This is ourfamily’s personal business! If they’ve done wrong, report it to me. Why did you call the cops? Do youknow what’s going to happen now?!” Lex was enraged. The Callahans watched helplessly. No onedared speak up. James said calmly, “And did doing that work? I brought Yosef here to explain things,

but he refused to tell the truth. You didn’t trust Thea at all. How can I prove her innocence withoutcalling the cops? Besides, I went to the authorities without knowing that the true masterminds wereHoward and his family. Now that the truth is out, we should acknowledge that they’ve wronged Thea.”

“You little…”

Lex’s complexion turned pale with anger.

“Besides…”

James continued, “Thea’s no longer the chairman of Eternality. She’s the chairman of Pacific Groupand owns ninety percent of its shares. This afternoon, she’d just taken over the company from Trevorthrough a loan.”

Cough! Upon hearing this, Lex coughed up blood. Then, he fainted. Seeing this, the Callahans freakedout and swiftly made their way to his side.

“James, what are you doing?” Thea rebuked him with an indignant look on her face. “How could youcall the cops? This was a family matter. Why did you report it to the authorities without consulting me?”

After rebuking James, she quickly made her way to Lex Lex had passed out from rage. Soon, heregained consciousness. He sat on the sofa, panting, “You think you’re so smart and all grown-up now,Thea? Do you not care about the family rules anymore? If that’s the case, I have nothing to say. Leave.From this day onward, you’re no longer part of the Callahans.” “Grandpa…”

Disoriented, Thea said, “Although I’ve taken over Pacific Group and am no longer the chairman ofEternality, I’ll ensure the contracts signed between Eternality and other corporations remain. Eternalitywill continue to receive orders from them in the future.”
