Burn Those Who Burned Me novel Chapter 198

“Burn those who burned me!”

Chapter 198

Jonathan lowered his tone.

:

“Regardless…it doesn’t give you the right to make up lies about my family!”

Kai stepped directly in front of Jonathan. At six foot three inches, Kai towered over Jonathon. His gaze was filled with hatred as he stared at him.

“You know Brooks, I’ve been wanting to meet you personally. I really don’t care about what you said about me…I know you would never be man enough to say such words to my face…but you insulted my fiancé…that I simply cannot allow.”

Jonathan’s face turned pale as he backed away slowly. Turning to face my father, Kai continued.

“So tell me Rochester…Does your board know about your dirty dealings?”

Calvin’s eyes widen in fear, I’m sure he wanted to know just how Kai found out about his underground business deals with the overlords of North Bay.

Before Calvin could respond, one of his board members Martin Keys stepped forward.

“What is it that we don’t know Lord Christiansen?”

“I’d like to know that as well.”

Another board member stated. When Kai first gave out the party invitations, he made sure to invite a few of Calvin’s board members.

Calvin nervously turned towards his board members, his face ghostly pale.

“I–I don’t know what he’s talking abo-”

“I’m talking about your dirty dealings creating front companies for some of North Bay’s most despicable crime lords. You and Steven Brooks have been involved in tax evasion, money laundering, and all types of illegal activity for years.”

“THAT’S A LIE!!!”

Jonathan ran forward; his face filled with fear.

Chapter 198

“My father would never-”

“Your father is a crook, as is your grandfather.”

Kai’s tone was flat as he glanced at Jonathan.

:

Jonathan’s face fell. As Olivia tried to hold his hand, he suddenly yanked it from hers.

“Let go of me!!!”

Stunned, Olivia began to cry.

“Jonathan, why are you-”

“I should have never chose you over Graceland! My grandfather warned me!”

Jonathan stormed out of the ballroom. Olivia turned towards me.

“You treacherous bitch!!! This is all your fault!!! I’m glad mother tried to have you killed!! I wish she would have succeeded!!!!”

I smiled smugly as Olivia’s true mask finally showed. Finally, everyone got to see the real her!

Olivia stormed out of the ballroom after Jonathan. Leaving Calvin now by himself. Martin Keys

walked over to Calvin, disgust in his face.

“I hope you know I’ll be reporting this to the board. By tomorrow morning, I’ll have you removed.”

With that, he also left the ballroom. Calvin’s face was filled with complete despair. Tears falling down his face; he turned to me.

“G–Graceland…how….how could you do this to your own father? Your own family?”

“Family?”

I scoffed. These people had no idea what ‘family‘ was. Pulling out the marital contract my father signed the day I informed him of my proposal from the Christiansens, I turned to the final page.

“Do you know what this is? No? This is a parental release agreement…and guess what…you signed it.”

Calvin’s eyes widen in panic as he snatched the contract from my hand.

Chapter 198

“That’s impossible! I would have never signed something like that! I would have never given up the opportunity to be connected to-”

Calvin halted his words realizing he was about to say too much. I decided to finish it for him.

42

“What…connected to House Christiansen? Oh I know…I also knew that you were so willing to sell me to the highest bidder, that you wouldn’t have even bothered reading that contract. Afterall, you signed it thinking the Christiansens were going to have me here as a slave. Unfortunately for you, you signed over your parental rights.”

Horror stricken Calvin’s face. He couldn’t believe what he was reading.

“So you see…you’re not my father and the Rochesters are not my family. As of June 25th, I officially became Graceland Teagues. I guess I should thank you; if you hadn’t been such a disgustingly greedy father…I would have never been able to legally become the daughter of my true mother…Diana Teagues.”

Calvin dropped to his knees, his tears falling on the paper. Suddenly, Kai signaled for security.

“If you could please remove this man from my ballroom…his presence is no longer required.”
