Chapter 37 I calmly sat down and had a sip of water .
So ? Would you like to explain yourselves ? Teremiah was about to speak when I cut him off , Hey , please dont tell me that this is all take .
Anyone who digs a little deeper will find out that Cornell Groups deficit is more than just a few million dollars .
Jeremiah became quiet after hearing my words .
He was clenching his fists tightly .
Quinton turned livid .
He was stunned beyond words , and he glared at me like he wanted to swallow me whole .
Unbothered , I flashed him a smile , silently taunting him .
Dad flipped through the documents , and his expression quickly darkened .
I get it now .
No wonder the funds we invested in the early stages showed little progress .
I only gave you this project because of the ties between our tamilies .
I cant believe that you were actually scheming against us ! Quinton tried to explain the situation .
Tim , this is a misunderstanding ! L … Misunderstanding ? What misunderstanding ? Even if it were , this partnership is highly risky ! Well never work with you again ! Dads temper flared up , and he immediately called for security to throw both Jeremiah and Quinton out of the house .
I casually stood at the back as I watched both father and son getting kicked out by security .
It was likely that Quinton had never faced such humiliation in his life .
Anger and embarrassment flashed across his face .

Before stepping into his car , he turned around and pointed at our door in a rage .
You Browns are just too much ! he roared .
Since youre showing no mercy , then dont blame us for being ruthless as well .
Well make sure the whole world knows about Janes infidelity ! Just wait for your family to be the target of gossip ! After delivering his threat , Quinton angrily stepped into his car and drove off in a huff .
Dad was seething in anger , and he almost could not catch his breath .
Mom quickly patted his chest .
Tim , calm down ! Dont get mad ! I hurried over to help him onto the couch and poured him a glass of water .
Dad , are you okay ? Are you feeling better ? Dads breathing slowly became steady , and he nodded .
He looked at me with a worried frown on his face .
Tane , Im fine .
The most important thing Is your reputation Mom sighed .
Now that weve blown things up , Quinton wont let this slide so easily .
We cant stand by and let him slander you .
They said a persons true character was revealed in tough times .
In the face of an impending storm of criticism , my parents still cared about me .
If there werent others around , I wouldve thrown myself into their arms and bawled like a baby .
Speaking of others ….
I turned around and took a look at Elsa , who had been sitting silently in the corner of the couch the entire time .
You were the one who told Quinton about my pregnancy , right ? I calmly asked .
Huh ? Elsa had a confused look on her face .
From her expression , I knew she was about to deny it I was not about to give her that opportunity .
I know Jeremiah too well .
A prideful man like him would never reveal that his wife cheated on him , not even to his family .
Hes a grown man .
Having his father step in on his behalf would only make him look even more pathetic .
Also , I remember you went to the Cornells home yesterday .
That was when you told them , right ? I continued .
I laid everything bare in one breath .
Elsa was stumped , unable to respond .
Mom and Dad turned their gaze to her , waiting for her answer .
Even Jack was visibly shocked as he stared at her .
