From Betrayed Daughter To Billionaire

Synopsis

No one in my family ever truly cared about me. Right now, they were just putting on a show to get their hands on my money. Lucas Bennett felt like that was the peak of his life. His father was lying in bed, coughing so hard it looked like he might collapse any second—seriously, he could win an Oscar for that performance. His mother wiped away tears but kept sneaking him an OK sign when no one was looking. The document sat right there on the bedside table. Once Emily Bennett signed it, 60 percent of Bennett Logistics Corp. would be his. He looked at Emily—still on the couch, clutching that damn thermos, with that look on her face like she couldn't care less. Lucas was boiling inside and yelling while his palms were slick with sweat. "Come on, just sign it! Dad's on his deathbed—do you even have a heart?" First thing he'd do once he took over? Rip out Emily's fancy office and turn it into his personal cigar lounge. Next up—finally snagging that Ferrari he'd been eyeing for six months and throwing wild rooftop parties with a bunch of hot girls. And Emily? He'd just toss her a few million for retirement and tell her to get lost. The company wouldn't fall apart without her. Let's be real—the whole thing had been propped up by the Bennetts' connections all along. Lucas saw Emily pick up the pen. He fought to keep the smirk off his face, thinking, "She's usually sharp as a tack, but when it's family, she's just a fool."
