Chapter 257: Furious Outburst
Chapter 257: Furious Outburst
For most ordinary people, two hundred thousand yuan isn’t easy to earn.
Not to mention that a housekeeper, who lacks knowledge and hasn’t engaged in business, couldn’t possibly make two hundred thousand in one night.
The housekeeper began to tremble violently when he heard the assistant’s words, displaying an extremely frightened appearance.
If that’s not guilt, then what is it?
Henry Stanton cast a vicious glance at the housekeeper and continued asking the assistant on the phone, "Who is the remitter?"
The assistant hesitated this time before speaking, "It’s... it’s..."
"Stop stuttering! Speak up! Is it Coralie Hughes?!"
Suddenly, the assistant’s voice rang out in shock, "It’s not Coralie Hughes... the remitter is the madam."
"What?!" Henry Stanton sounded even more shocked than the assistant.
Before the assistant could finish, he continued, "Not just this time, but previous large transfers also came from an account under the madam’s name."
Henry Stanton’s eyes widened in disbelief; he never expected it was not Coralie Hughes who bribed the housekeeper, but his own spouse, Stella Monroe.
If Stella Monroe were beside him now, he would have slapped her hard directly!
He knew it, this woman must have developed ulterior motives, otherwise why would she try to court his shareholders?
Luckily, he discovered it in time!
But Henry Stanton didn’t notice that Summer Monroe, standing behind him, slowly curled her lips into a subtle smile.
"You bastard!" Henry Stanton, to vent his anger, kicked the housekeeper in the face.
"Ah—" The housekeeper screamed miserably, with blood flowing from his nose.
That wasn’t enough; Henry Stanton’s second and third kicks soon followed.
Kicking while cursing, "Ungrateful bastard! I am your master, yet you dare betray me!"
Henry Stanton was emitting a terrifying killing intent.
Before long, the housekeeper was in too much pain to even scream.
Standing nearby, Clarissa Stanton also widened her eyes in shock.
So her mother had colluded with Coralie Hughes to harm her?
No... that’s not right!
Clarissa Stanton suddenly remembered that before she left the temple, Stella Monroe had desperately stopped her and said this might be a trap.
But at the time, she didn’t trust Stella Monroe at all, so she completely disregarded her words.
If it wasn’t her mother, then who was it?
After thinking for a couple of seconds, Clarissa Stanton suddenly looked towards Summer Monroe.
It was just as Summer was looking at her.
The moment their eyes met, Clarissa Stanton clearly saw the cold gleam in Summer Monroe’s eyes.
She was so shocked that cold sweat broke out on her back.
It was Summer! It really was her!
Summer Monroe suddenly curled her lips; she had deliberately left a trace.
Half-smiling, she asked, "Sister, what are you looking at me for?"
Summer’s innocent look completely infuriated Clarissa Stanton.
Her face changed dramatically, and she pulled Henry Stanton while pointing at Summer, saying, "Dad! This matter is also related to Summer! She must have known the Hughes family’s secrets long ago, that’s why she had someone send clothes to my place! Dad, you need to thoroughly investigate Summer too!"
"Shut up!" Henry Stanton was still furious.
He was kicking the housekeeper mainly to vent his anger towards Stella Monroe.
Now with Clarissa Stanton stepping in, his rage only grew.
Henry Stanton looked at Clarissa Stanton with disgust and said, "Neither of you mother and daughter is any good; you’re both ungrateful wolves! Sadie just stopped me from hitting you and helped clear things up, yet it hasn’t been long and you bite back at your sister. Do you even have a conscience? How the hell did I... how did I raise such an ungrateful wolf!"
