Chapter 200 Total Surrender

Eliza’s lips curved in a cool, victorious smile.

“But if you hand the company over to me, all your problems disappear. And asking for all of your assets? I’m already being generous.”

Nathan’s face turned ghostly pale.

He knew–better than anyone–that she was right. If he’didn’t accept her offer, the shareholders and board members would come after them with pitchforks. And with Rivers Corp now nothing more than a sinking ship, having anyone willing to take over was a stroke of luck.

“Dad! You can’t give the company to her! You just can’t!” Naomi’s voice shook with fury.

Eliza was clearly here to crush them–and they were about to hand her the knife?

“Enough! I need time to think-”

“You don’t have time,” Eliza interrupted, standing from the chair with icy finality. “I’ll count to three. If you’re still indecisive, I walk.”

Nathan panicked. “Fine! I’ll do it!”

“Dad!” “Honey!”

Both Naomi and Evelyn shouted in horror.

But Nathan gritted his teeth. “I’ll give you the company. All my shares. All of my assets—‘

“No,” Eliza said coolly. “Not just yours. I want everything under all three of your names–Evelyn’s and Naomi’s, too.”

Nathan’s face tightened.

Evelyn was the first to explode. “Eliza! What gives you the right to take my money?!”

Eliza’s expression didn’t waver. “Your money is Nathan’s money, isn’t it? He hasn’t worked in years. And I seem to recall you prepared a very generous dowry for Naomi, didn’t you? I’ll be taking all of that as well.”

Evelyn’s face flushed in fury. That “generous dowry” had already gone up in smoke during the flu season, thanks to Eliza’s little scam.

What was left of it was pocket change.

“You can’t do this! That’s all I have! My entire life savings!”

But Nathan shoved her aside with cold resolve. “She’s right. What’s yours is mine. And if you don’t want our shareholders driving us into an early grave, you’d better give it up!”

Without hesitation, he signed the contract, surrendering everything.

1/3

You were always a curse.”

“Oh? Then I hope you regret it for the rest of your life,” Eliza replied with a gleam. “Now you’ll watch me take over everything you once had–and there’s nothing you can do about it.”

She tucked the signed contract away and turned to the secretary.

“Escort Mr. Rivers and his wife and daughter out.”

The secretary froze.

“What? You don’t understand what I said?” Eliza asked, her tone calm but razor–sharp.

“N–No, I understand.”

Still stunned, the secretary walked over to Nathan. “Please… this way.”

Being personally shown the door by his own former employee was the final humiliation. Nathan could barely breathe through his rage, but in front of Eliza, he was powerless.

Naomi, in shock, stumbled behind them. “Dad… why? Why would you give her everything? Even if the company’s gone, we still had enough to leave the country!”

Nathan clenched his jaw. “Do you think everything would’ve ended just because the company collapsed? Do you know how many investors are going to come after us? If we don’t give them what they want, we’ll be ruined. There’s no money to pay anyone back

anymore.”

Naomi was stunned into silence.
