Chapter 296 Abused
"Wayne, you ungrateful bastard! How could you talk to me like that? How could you say something so
heartless to me? How dare you! I'm your grandma. I've always loved and cared about you and
supported your life. You've made tons of troubles and I've got your back every time. But in return, you
just said those ruthless words to me and even beat me! You dared beat me! You goddamn ungrateful
bastard! You broke my heart. Your conscienceless words are killing me! I swear, you'll be terribly sorry
if I die."
Lorie went out of control and screamed her lung out.
For so many years, Lorie had never been abused by anyone. Even though she didn't have a happy
marriage with her husband, she was respected most of the time. Her husband had compromised in
every way to avoid fussing with her. Later she became the only senior of the family after her husband
died, and everyone must show her respect. She'd tried all means to make things difficult for Hannah
and her family, but they still treated her with due respect and care. However, she turned out to be
abused cruelly by the ones she loved and cared.
She just couldn't figure it out.
"Go to hell then! You're so useless and you should go to hell!" Wayne shouted at Lorie and showed his
real face and said without sympathy, "Do you think you could live such a good life without Uncle
Miguel? Grandma, do you think we like you and respect you? Wake up! We just made use of you to
take over Cooper Group! You're useless to us now since you've offended Uncle Miguel and his family.
You're a piece of trash, so useless and pathetic. Just go to hell. We hate to see your face again. You
make us sick!"
"Wayne, you bastard! I'm gonna kill you! I'm gonna kill you!" Saying it, Lorie came at Wayne.
But Wayne pushed her down to the sofa abruptly before she could come close to him. Lorie was aged
and got dizzy and couldn't rise to her feet. It seemed Wayne hadn't vent out his anger yet. He stepped
forward and tried to slap her more.
Esther stopped him immediately.
"Wayne, I don't give a shit on the life and death of this evil old woman, but it's unworthy of it if you ruin
your future by killing her and getting yourself into a lawsuit."
Wayne thought about it, stopped beating Lorie and said, "You'd better have some self-knowledge! I'll
fucking kill you if you dare boss my mother around again or still do yourself proud like a queen mother
in the house!"
"How dare you! I'm your grandmother!" Lorie screamed out. No matter how, she couldn't accept that
she'd been abused like this.
"Wayne, you abused me and showed me no respect! I'll reveal the truth to the media right away. I'm
gonna ruin your reputation and make you lose everything."
"Whatever!" Wayne didn't give a damn on it and said, "You framed Uncle Miguel and his family up that
day and got busted on the spot. Try and see what media will still believe your shit now. Check your
phone and see how many people have condemned you as a wicked old woman and cursed you to go
to hell. You're asking for an insult yourself if you talk to the media and expose me! No one will ever
believe a word you say!"
"I... I'll go for Miguel. I'll tell him to knock some sense into you! You damn kid!" Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
"Oh, my dear grandma, don't you know the meaning of 'digging your own grave'?" Wayne smiled evilly
and said, "You gave Uncle Miguel and his family a hard time, and you want him to help you now? Do
you think he is stupid? You know what, Hannah isn't the one she used to be. She's very vindictive now.
You'll be kicked out of the house if you turn to them for help. I suggest you drop the idea. Or you'll look
for trouble yourself."
"You ungrateful bastard!" Lorie cursed. She didn't know how to vent out her anger besides cursing him
harshly.
"Well, since we've started it today, let's just make things clear, in case you still have those false hopes."
Wayne meant to make Lorie suffer and said, "I don't like you and I just take advantage of you. So does
my father. Jesus! You're so stupid that you even can't tell who really loves you and who just pretends
to. Grandpa was much smarter on it. He knew my father wasn't attached to any of you and none of you
would live well once my father took over Cooper Group."
"You cruel and heartless bastard! You and your father and your family are goddamn bastards!"
"You taught us that, grandma." Wayne said sarcastically, "Uncle Miguel and his family treat you well but
you turn a blind eye to it. You even acted wicked and merciless and couldn't bear to see them live a
good life. You're just suffering from your own actions now. You asked for it. You are the only one to be
blamed!"
"Wayne..."
"Enough!" Wayne didn't want to waste his breath with Lorie again.
He turned to Esther and said, "Mum, take her phone away. Keep an eye on her. Make sure she behave
herself."
"OK." Esther said. In fact, she'd had enough of Lorie in her life.
She wouldn't have grovelled to Lorie if it hadn't been beneficial to please her. But she was over the
moon when she could torture her and take it out on her now.
"I'm not feeling well. I gotta take a nap in my room." said Wayne. He wasn't in the mood of going back
to the office today. Whenever he recalled that he'd suffered wrong in the office, he couldn't help to get
mad. He swore that he would make Hannah pay for it someday! She would have to pay big for it!
...
At the company, Hannah finished the work handover. Someone in the branch office took over the job of
the sales director when Hannah was promoted to the senior vice chairman, while Mary became the
assistant of the sales director in the Sales Department.
Hannah moved to the office of the senior managers. The office for the senior vice chairman was still
empty. It seemed to be saved for Wayne.
In fact, they did it to hush the crowd.
Hannah knew clearly that Wayne couldn't be promoted to that position considering his working
capacity. And Wayne knew himself quite well. He knew he wasn't capable of it, so he might reach his
goal in the extreme way. She would do nothing but wait for Wayne to bring about his own destruction.
Hannah's new office was temporarily made in a vacant room. In the letter of appointment, she was
appointed as "The Provisional Senior Vice Chairman". So, it sounded very reasonable to work in a
temporal office.
Even so, anyone would feel uncomfortable with it. But only Hannah could take it so lightly.
Rose moved to the new office together with Hannah. She just watched their sales director, to be more
exact, the provisional Senior Vice Chairman, looking so calm and peaceful.
Rose was worrying about Hannah. 'Didn't she care about the so-called fame and reputation? Wasn't
she afraid of making herself a laughing stock? She would have to leave with her tail down once Wayne
had developed himself and got promoted. Wasn't she worried about it?' She thought.
"Just speak it out." Hannah had buried herself in work already.
The CEO had covered this job in the earlier stage, and there wasn't any problem with the big things.
But many of the small things had been left behind.
"Nothing much." Rose came back to earth instantly.
She always thought it was unnecessary for her to worry about anything. It seemed that Hannah had
confidence in everything. Everything had turned out to be fine in the end even though Hannah had met
some unstable things or gone through some difficulties at first. So, she didn't have to worry about it at
all.
"Get back to your work then. We've got much to do in this position. List all the job responsibilities of this
position and find out what kind of work this position is in charge of now. Get back to me within this
week."
"Yes." Rose said humbly.
After all, Hannah wouldn't leave any personal time to anyone during working hours. She wouldn't even
give you the time to zone out. That was her process.
