Bella Thompson showed no signs of displeasure, she looked at James Marshall with contemptuous eyes, “Don’t think I can’t see through your motives.”

James Marshall laughed enigmatically, a cunning gleam in his eyes, “My intentions have always been easy to guess. You eat meat, while I’m contented with just a spoonful of rice. I’m worried that after Matthew Marshall leaves Marshall Corporation, I’ll be the next one Daniel Marshall drives out. I’m just trying to protect myself.”

Bella Thompson sneered, a look of irony in her eyes, “Don’t make it sound so nice. It’s quite hypocritical.”

“Let’s not talk about me, time will reveal all! Sister-in-law, I’m really curious as to why Daniel Marshall is going to such great lengths to find the old butler of the Marshall Family? Is he trying to find Mother? I remember vividly, you and Ella Charles were as close as sisters, now you are the one laughing at the end. It’s hard for people not to suspect your motives.”

Bella Thompson managed to maintain her composure, but her heart was full of turmoil.

At this moment, Bella Thompson forced herself to remain calm, letting out no indication of her inner panic. She pretended as if nothing had happened and coldly looked at James Marshall, “You don’t have to try and test me. If you dare, then deal with Daniel Marshall yourself. My son and I won’t become your puppets. If you want to know why, you can go ask Daniel directly. Unfortunately, you don’t have the guts to!”

James Marshall looked leisurely at Bella Thompson, his smile filled with a profound meaning, “It’s not my business to interfere with such matters. I wonder if my brother is interested in it? After all these years, I don’t know if Ella Charles harbors any resentment or if she wants to take revenge, meet her son? If Ella finds out that her son is the heir of the Marshall Family, she will definitely come back, won’t she?!”

The cold light in Bella Thompson’s eyes seemed capable of murdering someone. But she still retorted defiantly.

“No matter how you try to instigate, my son and I won’t become your chess pieces. I suggest you give up on that idea as soon as possible. As for everything that belongs to Michael Marshall, don’t even think about it! f𝐫e𝚎we𝚋n𝐨𝘃el.𝗰𝗼𝐦

As long as my son bears the name Marshall, even if Daniel ends up inheriting the Marshall Corporation, we will still have food on our table. However, if you ascend to the top at our expense, I can’t assure you of anything. Despite the disputes, we are still a family, whereas you are an outsider. And as for your ulterior motives, who knows!”

With a look of disdain, Bella Thompson glanced at James Marshall and went downstairs.

James Marshall watched her retreating figure with cold, scornful eyes.

James was certain that Bella Thompson must be panicking inside. Bella Thompson was definitely going to seek his help proactively.

The next time they meet, he must make this high-handed woman beg him.

Though not entirely clear about the past events, he was certain that Bella Thompson had succeeded with her cunning plan.

Let Bella Thompson and Daniel Marshall continue their feud; he could reap the benefits when both sides suffer.

Bella Thompson was filled with panic and fear. But in front of James Marshall, she had to pretend to be calm.

Making an excuse to go to the bathroom, Bella turned on the tap and hurriedly phoned her brother.

Though panicking and extremely restless, Bella still lowered her voice and asked carefully, “What did you do to Joseph Charles back then? It’s trouble time. Daniel Marshall has gotten hold of an old butler from the Marshall Family; he will definitely ask questions about the past and conduct an investigation.”

Referring to the old affairs, Sebastian Thompson also felt a bit uneasy, “Sis, I had dealt with everything back then. I threatened Ella Charles and told her to stay out of it for the sake of her son. She surely wouldn’t dare to appear again. As for Joseph Charles, he emigrated. There’s no way they can find him.

I’ve repeatedly told him to lie low. If the Marshall Family manages to find him, the only path left for him will be death. Back then, he promised to hide well. Consider `Joseph Charles,’ this name, and this person, dead.”
