Called Off the Wedding, Left Him Bankrupt novel Chapter 46

"Auntie, please don't be upset. Benedict is just looking out for the company's best interests. VistaSphere Group was founded by both Cynthia and Benedict—if they split up, it would definitely affect the company."

"And if Cynthia and Benedict break up, she'll take a huge chunk of money with her. The business could run into serious trouble then."

Giselle's words calmed Lois down a little.

"But hasn't she already left the company? Isn't she just at home now?" Lois thought Cynthia's departure meant VistaSphere Group belonged to Benedict alone.

Giselle patiently explained the pros and cons, laying out how the assets would be split under the law. Lois's face turned a dark shade of anger.

"She's just a woman who got lucky because of our Benedict. He's the one managing everything there—what right does she have to walk away with so much?"

Giselle gave a small, helpless smile. "That's just how the law works, Auntie. Unless she's made some huge mistake that actually hurt the company, Benedict doesn't have any way to keep her from getting her share."

Lois said nothing, her face twisted with frustration.

Giselle glanced over at her, her tone turning just a bit gossipy. "I heard about a couple—during the divorce, the husband's lawyer dug up evidence of the wife cheating. They leaked it, and in the end, the wife backed down and gave up her claim to the assets."

Lois frowned. "Cynthia would never betray Benedict."

She didn't like Cynthia much, but she knew how Cynthia felt about relationships. Cynthia would never do anything to hurt Benedict.

A flash of annoyance crossed Giselle's eyes, but she kept her tone light. "I read later that the whole thing was a setup. The husband manufactured the evidence just to force her out with nothing—just trying to create a scandal."
