Chapter 132 Forcing Raine Out of the Lidell Family

Martha’s words struck like a hammer, crashing against Nancy’s heart.

Alex’s expression darkened slightly, his tone measured but sharp. “If that’s truly what you insist on, Mrs. Lidell Senior, then for Raine’s sake, I’ll have no choice but to take a harsher

route.

“Lidell Group recently spent over 100 million on a worthless piece of plot, and the company is already on the brink of collapse. What do you think will happen if I pull the Fuller Group’s projects out?

If that happened, Lidell Group would face bankruptcy within days.

Martha’s expression grew grim. She had carried herself with pride all her life, but now, someone very much her junior was threatening her.

Raine lowered her gaze, concealing the flash of triumph in her eyes. It didn’t matter how

capable Nancy was. Raine’s fiance was none other than Alex Fuller, after all.

With a single move from the Fuller family, the Lidell family could be destroyed.

She thought, “The old hag can keep favoring Nancy for all I care. She can be biased toward

whomever she wants, but she’ll ultimately drag the entire Lidell family down with her.”

Wendy and the others grew frantic. “Grandma, you need to agree to the deal! Do you really want to see Lidell Group go bankrupt?”

Nancy turned to Alex. There was a flicker of guilt in his eyes, and she recognized that he was

not a man who acted without reason.

She calmly said, “Mr. Fuller, your devotion to Raine is enviable. But do you truly believe she deserves it? If you pull out the Fuller Group’s projects and cause Lidell Group to go bankrupt, everyone will know it was because of Raine.

“Everyone will see her as the villain who destroyed the family that raised her. And when that happens, what will people think of you?”

The implication was clear. Raine would be painted as cruel, and Alex as merciless.

Raine hadn’t expected Nancy to frame the issue this way, and her expression faltered. She quickly glanced at Wendy, who seized the chance to interject.

“Nancy, if you just leave, none of this will happen! You’re the source of all this chaos, so stop trying to drive a wedge between them!”

Martha let out a sharp, cold laugh. “Enough! Mr. Fuller, I’ve said it before, and I will say it again. I will never let Nancy leave. If you want to come after Lidell Group for the sake of that bastard child, then go ahead. We’re not afraid.”

Bastard child?

Raine’s heart seemed to sink in her chest. She realized immediately that she had completely angered Martha.

The older woman had actually used such a cruel, cutting word against her.

Martha’s gaze turned icy as it landed on Raine. “Let everyone see the truth. The Lidell family’s fake heiress, raised by us all these years, is nothing more than an ungrateful child who drives her fiance to strike against the very family that took her in.”

Raine’s fingers trembled as hatred spread through her chest like wildfire.

Alex frowned slightly, turning to her. “Raine…”

Raine clung tighter to his arm, her voice trembling. “Alex, did you hear that? To them, I’m nothing but a bastard child. What’s the point of living in a family that sees me this way?”

Her chest burned with rage. Even if the world scorned her, she would drag Lidell Group down,

no matter the cost.

She cursed inwardly, “I’ll make this old hag regret ever crossing me.”

Alex sighed, ready to speak, but Nancy cut in first. “Raine, it’s one thing if you resent me and Grandma. That much I can understand. But what about Mr. Lidell, Mrs. Lidell, and Fergus? They’ve always treated you as their own.

“For the sake of harming me, you’d ruin them as well? That kind of cruelty is beyond words.”

Andrew, Regina, and Fergus stiffened, their expressions shifting.

It was true. If Lidell Group collapsed, they too would be ruined.

Wendy’s voice broke the silence, rising with indignation. “But isn’t all of this because of you, Nancy? If you had just left, none of it would be happening!

“You were never supposed to come back. Your return has thrown this whole family into chaos!

Wendy glared at Nancy with resentment.

The next moment, a glass shattered violently on the floor near Wendy’s feet, and she let out a startled scream.

“Shut your mouth!” Martha bellowed, her voice ringing through the room. “Nancy is my granddaughter. If she shouldn’t be here, then who should? Should it be Raine, who’s ever ready to destroy Lidell Group?”

Wendy was scolded mercilessly. She tried opening her mouth but dared not speak.

Raine was furious. She fumed inwardly, “This old hag is clearly targeting me. I’m going to see Lidell Group destroyed if it’s the last thing I do!”

After all, she was soon to be “Mrs. Fuller”, so a few scoldings didn’t matter. Those people would only dare to gossip behind her back anyway.

Her heart burned with resentment, yet her face carried an air of grievance as she clutched Alex’s sleeve.

Just as Alex was about to speak, the Lidell household’s maid entered the room and announced, “Mrs. Lidell Senior, someone from the Fuller family has arrived!”

Everyone turned toward the door. A sharply dressed man in a tailored suit stepped in.

Nancy’s eyes flickered momentarily when she found Corey entering the living room.

As Gideon’s assistant, Corey was well known in business circles. Most of the Lidell family members recognized him in an instant.

“Corey,” Martha said cautiously, her gaze sharp. She wondered if Corey had come to help Alex pull Fuller Group’s projects from Lidell Group.
