Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1648

Kelly said, "I suggested we should dissolve the overseas company the last time, but he was upset. After all, it's that woman who is upset. She'll definitely persuade him to resort to tricks, and he'll

unquestionably listen to her."

She then turned to Arya and continued. "So, before they do something even worse, Arya, you must hold onto those two companies! If you can't manage it alone, consult with Toph, Zuko, or Pammy. Without your approval, your brother can't take even a penny from you, understand?"

Kelly implored, gripping Arya's hands tightly, "The Bayers and Tanners' assets have been accumulated for generations. We can't afford to lose them all!"

Arya nodded vigorously and assured her, "I've got it, mom. Don't worry. I hope Graham will soon turn things around, and our family can return to how it used to be."

Exhausted, Kelly closed her eyes and coughed heavily.

At that moment, someone hurried past outside the door.

Sophia concealed herself at the corner of the corridor, her eyes filled with resentment as she stared at Kelly's room. Her hand pressed against the wall, almost chipping the paint.

She had overheard the entire conversation and had a plan in mind.

"Hello, Sophia." Graham's voice came from the phone. "Have you visited my mom? I'm held up here. Tell her I'll be there soon."

"No need." Sophia's voice turned cold. "It's pointless for you to come. Your sister's in there. The three of them are playing a happy family."

"What did you say?" Graham exclaimed.

"I heard them loud and clear." Sophia scoffed. "Your parents gave their assets to your sister. You, the son, get nothing!"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line.

Sophia continued. "Don't give up just yet, Graham. We can get a loan from the bank, can't we? When the business with Fat Lawler takes off, your parents will surely change their minds. So..."

"I'll go to the bank now." Graham's deep voice assured her. "I'll apply for the loan right away."

She grinned, secretly pleased that Graham had changed his mind and validated her point-that Kelly was an obstacle that needed to be removed.

Kelly's health was deteriorating. She would wither with a single trigger, and Sophia knew that breaking someone's heart was the key to taking their life. She smirked, content with her plan. She glanced at the door one last time before departing, a cold hint of viciousness flashing through her eyes.

A week later.

The voting for the Outstanding Teacher Prize among parents concluded. The vote count took place in the meeting room, and as expected, Maisie had an overwhelming lead in votes. It was almost a unanimous decision, leaving Maeve far behind.

Many parents not only cast their votes but also left online comments, expressing their gratitude for Maisie's patience with the children and her dedication.

Maeve widened her eyes as the vote count was announced. She slammed the table and stood up amidst the cheers and applause, exclaiming, "I can't believe it! The votes must have been rigged!"

At that moment, everyone in the room stared at her, then turned their attention to Maisie, unsure of what to say.
