Chapter 55 Abortion Now. No Mercy

The shareholders felt their temples throb. Was James even the high and mighty Mr. Anderson who liked to strut around them?

No matter how hard they stared, he just looked like an abandoned dog.

"Jeanne! Jeanne...

Snot and tears streamed down James' face. Still, he did not dare lay a hand on Jeanne and instead sobbed as he knelt before her. "I'm sorry. I know I made a mistake. I swear, she was my only mistress. There is no one else. Forgive me, please?"

A man who had cheated once was like a cat that got the cream. There was no way he would not cheat on her again since he knew how nice it felt to cheat on her.

Jeanne did not believe a single word he said, and neither did any of the shareholders.

If he had a child with Jeanne, perhaps she might have forgiven him for the child's sake. Since there was none, all the love she had ever felt for him had been burned to ashes in her disappointment. "Just one? You have some nerve to say that, James!"

Jeanne turned away without hesitation to help her father to his feet.

It felt revolting to even look at a man as depraved and despicable as James.

"Jeanne! Jeanne ...

When James saw that she was going to leave, he waddled over on his knees to grab her by the pants

once more. "I won't agree to a divorce. Never! I love you, Jeanne. I truly love you...

Jeanne tugged at her pants to get the fabric out of his grip. When she failed, she turned to Claire

with annoyance shimmering in her eyes. "Can you please ask your lawyer to help me with this divorce: You have all the proof of his deceitful and harmful actions. I want him to have nothing. Can that be

done?"

Claire silently turned to look at Matt.

Matt immediately stepped forward and politely replied, "There will be no issues with our evidence:

What he did will have him in prison for years"

What he did will have him in prison for years."

"Good." Jeanne nodded and tugged at her pants once more. When James continued to cling to her, sl flew into a fit of rage. "Men, get this leech off of me!"

Two security guards immediately walked into the office. Unlike their usual respectful manner, they now treated him like an abandoned dog.

The two men mercilessly twisted James' arms and dragged him away. It only took a few seconds befor they dislodged James from Jeanne.

When James realized how bad the situation was, he started howling like his life depended on it. "Claire Donovan, you witch! It's you! You ruined my family! You destroyed my future! Just you wait Claire looked at him without an ounce of pity in her eyes.

The moment she had decided to hunt this pig down, she had someone look into James. In the past fot years, James had acted like an absolute monster.

Many small businesses wanted to get rich with Solstice Industries' help. When they knew just how much

James wanted a son, they all sent woman after woman into his bed.

James instantly had S** with them and left the very next morning without saying a single word. He would always claim that the woman was either not pretty enough which meant their child would not b handsome, or not curvy enough which meant they could not bear him a son.

He would dismiss them all with a few thousand dollars before continuing his search.

He ruined the lives of dozens of women, if not a hundred. The ones he liked would have an ultrasounc scan done as soon as they were four months pregnant. If the baby was a girl, it would be aborted. No mercy at all.

Claire had no pity at all for a man like him.

She was merely weeding out the bad apple.

James' howling eventually faded away. It would be a lie to say Jeanne was not upset, but she had to hide it away. Someone as powerful as her could not let anyone see her sorrow.

After taking a deep breath, she turned to Jerome and only turned to Claire after receiving a nod from

him

"Thank you for telling me about everything. Miss Donovan. I would've been kept in the dark otherwise while the weasel uses my family's wealth and power to torment other women."

Claire looked down and shook her head with a smile on her lips. "I have my own reasons."

"I know." Jeanne opened her bag and pulled out a folder. Her fingers clenched around it as she

hesitated. "My father's health deteriorates by the day. I'm no businesswoman. Solstice Industries

is in your hands now."

Claire's head snapped up in shock. "I didn't want...

"Consider it an apology for being forced to leave Silverton all those years ago."

Even though Claire had not told Jeanne anything, everyone in Silverton knew what happened to Clair

and the Donovans.

Everyone recognized James as soon as they saw the video. Jeanne had not believed it at first, but when Claire's men approached her with evidence of his crimes, she had no choice but to believe it. She felt extremely guilty over what happened to Claire.

"Say yes. It's not a gift, anyway. It's a deal. I hope you'll treat the loyal employees of Solstice

Industries well."

Jeanne grabbed Claire's wrist and shoved the document in her hands. "My father and I have signed it already. Once you sign, Solstice Industries is yours. Don't forget to pay me." Claire did not even open the folder to look at the price listed as she smiled and asked in return, "What if I can't afford this?"

"Heh."

For the first time in days, Jeanne laughed. It was a joyful laugh. "In that case, be my goddaughter.

I don't have a kid anyway."

"Oh, that's fine."

"Godmother," Claire greeted without shame.

Jeanne immediately guffawed and pulled Claire into an embrace while patting her on the back. "The family might only be down to my father and me, Claire, but he has some connections still. I will help

you wherever I can. Just promise me one thing."

"Hm?" Claire hummed as she allowed herself to be hugged.

Jeanne heaved a heavy sigh and finally whispered, "James' mistress did no wrong. She was forced into

this and has been locked up this entire time. Now that he's bankrupt, she'll be dealing with a tough. life. Help me give her some money so that she can live a life of her own."

Claire would have done that without even being asked to.

The woman and her son were not hidden away because Claire wanted to; she had begged for protect

It did not matter that she had given James a son. He was still horrible to her.

Every resentment James felt over marrying into the Paulman family was vented out on her.
