He Dumped Me For a Heiress, Unaware I Owned His Whole Legacy Chapter 07

I stared at his frantic, unraveled expression, feeling nothing but overwhelming unfamiliarity.

This was the man I had loved with every fiber of my being for five whole years.

My brother curled his lips into a mocking sneer.

“This is the man you once begged and cried for, the one you loved for half a decade.”

“You poured billions into someone like this?”

Ewan stared at me, his eyes reddening.

“What billions are you talking about?”

My brother threw a punch straight at Ewan’s abdomen. Ewan crumpled to his knees with a heavy thud.

“Do you truly think you climbed to where you are today on your own merit?”

“Ewan!”

Liora threw her arms tightly around him, shielding his body.

“So what if Elowen is your sister?!”

“She’s still just a mistress you kept! The homewrecker who ruined our relationship!”

My brother’s expression turned icy in an instant.

“Count yourself lucky I never hit women.”

Liora gritted her teeth, a confident, unbridled smile spreading across her face.

“Silas, don’t forget our partnership! If I sell the experimental results to our competitors, all the machinery your group imported will be nothing but useless decorations!”

“I know the Hales are wealthy and can afford the loss, but no one willingly takes a losing business deal!”

My brother’s gaze bore into Liora, his voice laced with suppressed fury.

“Elowen, are you really going to let this insolent woman walk all over you?”

There was blame in his tone, but far more than that, it was thick with heartache and pity for me.

Believing she had the upper hand, Liora grew even bolder with her demands.

“If you want our experimental data, make Elowen stand before everyone and admit she’s the homewrecker. Then she will apologize to me and Ewan.”

She tilted her chin up, staring down at me with arrogant disdain.

“Liora, you stole my experimental data and dare to demand an apology from me? How shameless can you be?”

Watching her face drain pale, I continued coldly.

“I’ve always held the real core data. All you took is nothing but an unfinished prototype. Without my final code decryption, what you possess is worse than trash.”

Even if I had handed over all the data to them freely, it would be useless. They wouldn’t even know the first thing about how to run it.

Liora stumbled backward, her eyes fixed rigidly on the USB drive in my hand.

“You’re lying! I calculated every single piece of this data myself! No one knows it better than I do!”

Ignoring her, I turned my gaze to Ewan.

“Is that what you think too, Mr. Knight?”

Ewan scrambled to his feet in an instant, grabbing my arm tightly.

“Elowen, I know you’re still angry. I’ll hand the entire project back to you, along with all the shares. I’ll divorce Liora tomorrow. Let’s start over, please.”

I pulled my arm free of his hold, revulsion plain on my face.

“Ewan, you married Liora behind my back and turned my five years of devotion into a joke.”

“You knew this experiment was my late grandmother’s last wish, but you let Liora seize it for herself.”

“And when you let our child die, did you ever spare a thought for whether we could start over?”

Ewan’s brothers rushed over in a hurry, attempting to mediate.

“Sister-in-law,Ewan regrets everything. Please forgive him.”

“When you fell unconscious four years ago, Brother Ewan was devastated. He truly loves you.”

“But he’s had a ten-year bond with Liora. It’s only natural he made such a stupid mistake. Just give him another shot.”

Ewan stretched his hand out toward me, his voice desperate and pleading.

“Elowen, I’ll give you everything. I don’t want the heir position anymore.”

“We can have as many children as you want. I’ll listen to you in everything from now on. Just stay with me.”
