Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 355

355 /658

In the Lawrence Family's household...

Mrs. Lawrence looked sorrowfully at Beverly, who was in tears, feeling both heartbroken and angry. However, she didn't know how to console her, and could only sigh helplessly. "Come on, your mother-in-law just berates you verbally, for now, she wouldn't dare to do anything to you. What's urgent for you now is to get pregnant as soon as possible to secure your position. What your mother-in-law said was harsh, but she did speak the truth on some level. After you're pregnant and if you can get 5% of the old lady's shares, your status will be fundamentally different."

Five percent...

That's quite a considerable share.

If Beverly could secure 5% of the shares, even if Arnold weren't bound to become the head of the Stone family, Beverly's future would still be assured.

Beverly felt her heart stir upon hearing this. With tear-filled eyes, she looked at her mother and said, "But, even if I get pregnant, that scoundrel Arnold wouldn't let me have that 5% of the shares." She knows that the shares were meant for the child, but what does an infant need with the shares? At most, they'd just say that they're holding it in trust for the child.

Mrs. Lawrence scornfully retorts, "What are you afraid of? By the time you're pregnant, the child will be inside you. If they don't give you the shares, then the child won't be born. I don't believe Arnold would dare to do anything."

At that moment, Beverly was truly convinced.

After a long silence, she acquiesced, "Fine, I'll do as you've suggested. But what should we do about the Lawrence family?"

Mrs. Lawrence didn't understand what her daughter meant and furrowed her brows in confusion.

Beverly elaborated, "The heir! Do I just idly stand by and let my position as the heir be taken away? Mother, please think of something. Do you really want Ronaldo to gain control of the Lawrence family? Our future will be miserable!" Beverly had been the heir for many years, getting whatever she wished.

Now in a blink of an eye, she was faced with the prospect of losing her place as the heir to the Lawrence family.

This was genuinely too much for her to bear.

If this was the case for her, her avaricious mother-in-law would be even less reasonable. If her mother-in-law knew that she wasn't the heir, there would certainly be no good days for her. And with Ronaldo having all the grudges against her, she didn't believe that Ronaldo would let her off. Therefore, she felt much insecurity and fear.

Mrs. Lawrence, whose mood was already not good to start with, further soured upon hearing the name Ronaldo.

After remaining silent for a while, Mrs. Lawrence said, "You don't need to worry about this matter. I will find a way to sabotage him. Regardless, even if you can't have the Lawrence family fortune, I won't let him acquire it all!" She had recently fallen out of favor with her husband. Fortunately, her husband only had two children, Beverly and Ronaldo. He couldn't possibly want others.

So as long as she had Beverly, she would turn her fortunes around sooner or later.

She had thought about this long ago...

If something happened to Ronaldo and he died, even if her husband didn't want Beverly to be the heir, it would be impossible. He couldn't possibly hand the Lawrence Corporation to outsiders, could he?

Beverly's heart immediately sank after seeing the chill in her mother's eyes and the ruthlessness in her tone.

A cold glimmer flashed in her dark eyes.

She thought that her current disadvantage was only temporary. Once she truly rose, she would show all those who once humiliated her, especially ... Lambert. She will make him realize that choosing Ariana was such a huge mistake. She will make him regret—complete regret!
