Goodbye My Arrogant Ex novel Chapter 9

“I’ll come by tomorrow to help you move, Ms. Taylor.”

Laura had already confirmed, multiple times on the drive back, that Marguerite was truly breaking up with Benjamin. Marguerite was even planning to take everything at the company that belonged to her.

And since Laura had always been loyal to Marguerite, naturally she’d be leaving with her.

Marguerite nodded.

She watched as Laura drove away, then turned and headed towards the villa. She’d barely taken a few steps when her phone rang.

The caller ID showed it was the orphanage.

Marguerite answered, and the frantic voice of the director came through. “Marguerite, someone from Foster Corp just called. They said they’re cutting off all funding to the orphanage, and the hospital says we have to take back all the kids. What’s going on?”

The orphanage. Foster Corp.

Just hearing those two names together, Marguerite instantly understood what Benjamin was trying to do.

Her expression hardened, but she forced herself to stay calm. “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of this. I’ll call someone right now.”

The director finally exhaled, reassured by Marguerite’s words.

The children sponsored by Foster Corp all suffered from congenital illnesses. Even a second without the life support equipment could be fatal.

No one knew that better than Benjamin.

Marguerite hung up and, without a moment’s hesitation, dialed a number she hadn’t called in years.

“Hello, Hogan Taylor.”

He picked up almost immediately, his familiar voice coming down the line.

Marguerite’s hand tightened around her phone. Her eyes stung, her voice trembling. “Hi. It’s me… your sister.”
