His Mute Wife: He Can't Sleep After She Left-Chapter 142: Can’t Wait to Claim Ownership

Kiana Sutton has been volunteering since high school.

Having been caught in the rain herself, she wanted to help others with an umbrella.

She likes helping others, enjoys doing charity work, but her ability is limited.

If becoming the vice-chair of the Albatross Foundation could help more people, she would naturally be happy.

Rosalind Joyce’s face turned dark when she saw that the old lady not only brought Kiana Sutton into the foundation but also made her vice-chair, putting her on equal footing.

As soon as she got home, Rosalind Joyce threw a big tantrum.

"I have contributed so much for the Sinclair Family and the Albatross Foundation, and yet I’m no better than Neva Sheffield. Has she done as much as I have? What use is she, aside from giving the Sinclair Family a son?"

Marcus Sinclair was in a good mood because Kevin Sinclair was entering the Evercrest Group.

But watching Rosalind Joyce break things, he said coldly: "Is one son not enough?"

Rosalind Joyce’s eyes widened with rage, "What do you mean? Are you blaming me for not giving you a son?

"Mom agreed for Kevin to join the Evercrest Group, while the eldest brother’s family: the eldest brother is a lawyer, Liam is an engineer, none are in Evercrest Group. Mom gave the sister-in-law the chairman position at the foundation, just to balance things out with the eldest brother’s family."

At the mention of this, Rosalind Joyce became even angrier, "Balance? Humph, you focused on getting your illegitimate son into the Evercrest Group but didn’t help me fight for the chairman position at the foundation, what exactly are you balancing?"

"Haven’t you realized? Today’s decision, mom had already made up her mind, nothing anyone says matters."

Rosalind Joyce was livid, "Fine, even if mom wants to balance things and lets Neva Sheffield be the chairman, why should Kiana Sutton be vice-chair? What qualifies her to be on equal footing with me?"

The Sinclair Family is a prestigious and wealthy family.

When Neva Sheffield and Rosalind Joyce married into the Sinclair Family, the old lady was still young, and it was solely her say in both family matters and the foundation.

Both were vice-chairs of the foundation only after marrying into the Sinclair Family for eight years.

And now Kiana Sutton, only three years into the Sinclair Family, and without any children, the old lady gave her the vice-chair position of the foundation.

What favoritism!

"I don’t know what qualifies Kiana Sutton, but I do know, if you don’t achieve something to show mom, you might not even secure your vice-chair position."

Rosalind Joyce’s face changed dramatically, "What do you mean?"

"Neva Sheffield was promoted to chairman, you’re already enough as a vice-chair, why would mom bring Kiana Sutton in too? Frankly, what can a mute do?"

"Are you implying that mom wants to train up Kiana Sutton and then kick me out?"

The phone rang, Marcus Sinclair answered it while saying coldly: "Think for yourself, the company issues are enough to keep me busy. If you can’t even keep your vice-chair position, then you’re useless."

Rosalind Joyce watched Marcus Sinclair’s merciless and cold back, clenching her fists tightly.

Just then, she suddenly received a text message. Seeing its contents, a sinister smile curled at the corner of her mouth.

"Kiana Sutton, I will never let you climb over me!"

The person who texted Rosalind Joyce was Kate Lynch.

After hearing from Kevin Sinclair about the events in the Sinclair Family tonight, Kate Lynch was both jealous and angry upon hearing that the old lady gave Kiana Sutton the vice-chair position at the Albatross Foundation.

If it weren’t for the damned Kiana Sutton, both Ethan Sinclair, and the foundation’s vice-chair would have been hers.

Kiana Sutton stole everything that was supposed to be hers, how could she swallow that anger?

Knowing that Rosalind Joyce also hated Kiana Sutton, she shared what she heard from Stella Lynch about Kiana Sutton’s fear of cats.

Rather than take action herself, using others to do the dirty work was more advantageous for her.

On the way back, Ethan Sinclair’s face looked grim.

Kiana Sutton dared not provoke him at this time.

But this didn’t mean Ethan Sinclair would let her go; once they reached the villa, Ethan Sinclair dragged Kiana Sutton into the room and threw her onto the bed.

Being thrown made Kiana Sutton’s head a little dizzy, and she didn’t know what he was up to now.

The next second, he pressed his whole body onto her.

"Why didn’t you refuse when grandma asked you to be the foundation’s vice-chair?"

Kiana Sutton was stunned for a moment; this was a good thing, why would she refuse?

"Are you so eager to let everyone know you’re my wife, Ethan Sinclair?"

Before Kiana Sutton could respond, he coldly said again: "I thought you’d learned to behave over these past few days, but your scheming is still heavy! What’s wrong? As soon as Kate comes back, you’re eager to assert dominance?"

Kiana Sutton didn’t understand a word of what Ethan Sinclair was saying.

Ethan Sinclair didn’t give her a chance to gesture, lowering his head to seal her lips, unleashing his entangled frustrations and irritations on her.

Later, Kiana Sutton learned that the foundation’s chair change involved holding a press conference.

And as vice-chair attending, the old lady would surely introduce her as Ethan Sinclair’s wife.

Kiana Sutton originally wanted to explain to Ethan Sinclair, but knowing he may not believe her, she just let it go.

Kevin Sinclair was to report to the Evercrest Group the next day.

When he came out of the CEO’s office, he approached Kiana Sutton.

It was the first time Kiana Sutton saw Kevin Sinclair in business attire, not to mention anything else, the Sinclair genes were quite good.

Even with a scar on Kevin Sinclair’s face, it didn’t affect his charm and handsomeness at all.

He smiled wickedly at Kiana Sutton, "Fifth sister-in-law, previously I caused you harm, later you nearly crippled me, we’re even. In the future, I hope for more of your guidance."

Kiana Sutton was previously worried there wouldn’t be an opportunity to get close to Kevin Sinclair to investigate her father’s matter.

Now being in the same company, it indeed made things easier.

To avoid alerting anyone, she smiled slightly and nodded to Kevin Sinclair.

Kevin Sinclair might not have expected Kiana Sutton to smile at him, and one had to admit, this woman’s smile was quite beautiful.

It’s a pity, but she blocks Autumn’s way!

...

The foundation’s press conference was scheduled for Saturday.

Early in the morning, after tidying up a bit, Kiana Sutton headed to the old house.

Today’s schedule is very full; the old lady planned to visit the children and elderly they had helped with her daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law before the press conference began.

Kiana Sutton hadn’t anticipated being followed by cameras from the start. She was somewhat afraid of the lens, and was so nervous she almost couldn’t walk.

Compared to Kiana Sutton’s casual attire, Neva Sheffield wore a dark blue dress, while Rosalind Joyce donned a sexy and beautiful cheongsam.

Rosalind Joyce kept moving closer to the cameras, with her introducing everyone, Kiana Sutton could quietly work from the background.

The press conference was scheduled for 3:30 in the afternoon.

After visiting the elderly and children, there was still a bit of time. Rosalind Joyce glanced at Kiana Sutton, who was not far away wiping sweat discreetly, smiled at the old lady, and said "Mom, I recall we have an animal shelter for stray cats and dogs nearby, since we’re here, why not visit it as well."
