"What justice? Everything | did was for you!" Joe exclaimed.
Joe's voice brimmed with frustration. It was laced with an almost pleading tone.
"Yvan, don't just focus on how the Forbes Group shareholders refuse to accept Zayn. Lettell you the truth.
They'll reject you even more. You don't own a single share in the company. Why would they listen to you? But if |
transfer Josephine's shares to you, you'll becthe major shareholder. You'll be able to stand tall, even in front
of Zayn. Do you understand?"
Josephine was stunned. She never imagined that the real reason Joe had been pressuring her to hand over her
shares was so he could give them to Yvan.
Joe had truly spoiled Yvan beyond reason.
She turned to look at Zayn on the hospital bed. Both of them were Joe's sons, yet his favoritism was painfully
obvious.

No wonder Zayn had been so anxious after Joe revised his will. He had transferred funds, launched a film project,
and even turned to Nadine.
Of course, none of that excused his infidelity. His betrayal and desperation were two entirely separate matters.
She refused to let sympathy cloud her judgment.
At that moment, Yvan spoke. His tone was calm and resolute.
"The moment | agreed to cback and take over the family business, | decided to do it right. If you don't
believe inthen take the company back. I'll leave and continue making music abroad. But if you do, then stop
interfering with all these pointless schemes. | don't need these underhanded tactics as a crutch."
Wow. That almost made him sound noble. He made it sound like he was skind of righteous hero.
Josephine might've actually believed him if she didn't know him so well. She curled her lips in quiet disdain.
Joe fumed on the other end of the call. "Underhanded? Business is a battlefield! There's no such thing as an
honest businessman. Do you think Zayn plays fair? Lettell you something. If he ever sets his sights on you,
he won't hold back just because you're his brother. He'll tear you apart without hesitation. You want to play fair?
You'll be left with nothing but bones!"
Yvan let out a soft chuckle. "Then let
a sof
him try. I'd love to see if he can really stripdown to my bones. Alright enough of this. By the way, Zayn got
into a car accident. He broke his arm. He's at a hospital in Sunvale."
"A broken arm is nothing. A few days of rest and he'll be fine. But you! You mark my words. If you don't listen to
Josephine lowered her gaze. She stayed silent for a long moment.
There was not a single word of concern from Joe for his son's injury. Sfather he was.
But what baffled her most was the fact that Zayn was actually the legitimate son. He was born to Joe's lawful
wife. Meanwhile, Yvan was the illegitimate son of a mistress.
Yet, Joe showered his illegitimate son with endless love and support while treating his rightful heir with cold
indifference.

It was truly incomprehensible.
Ethan, who had been standing by the window, had listened to the entire exchange. Even his usually composed
expression showed a flicker of surprise.
He hadn't expected Joe to be so blatantly biased.
On the hospital bed, Zayn remained motionless with his eyes shut. Yet beneath the covers, his hands were
clenched into tight fists. They were clenched so tightly that his palms ached.
Josephine turned to Yvan and said, "You caused all this chaos, and he barely scolded you before letting you off
the hook. No wonder you've been so reckless all these years."
Joe had let him do whatever he pleased. Whether it was to pursue music or to return hto inherit the family
business, Joe had paved the way for him without hesitation.
With such a powerful backer, Yvan had nothing to fear. No wonder he was so carefree and untamed.
Yvan frowned. "Oh, cut it out. You know damn well | can stand on my own. By the way, | just dropped a new
album. Have you listened to it yet?"
