Chapter 111 

Jaylan slid up next to me, grinning like a Cheshire cat, trying to put his arm around me. I promptly swatted his hand away. He laughed awkwardly, “Babe, let’s not fight, you gotta take care of yourself.” 

I swallowed my anger, realizing how challenging acting could be. Once you’re in character, the emotions feel real. But my heart couldn’t handle the strain, my whole body trembling uncontrollably. 

Jaylan probably noticed my shaky state and began to gently stroke my back, whispering soothing words, pretending to be the epitome of compassion. 

Speak up! Who put you up to this?” I glared at Zora, my voice laced with restrained fury Anyone could tell I was on the verge of blowing up. 

“Ma. Ma’am, I’m sorry, I. Mr. Zora stammered, evidently taken aback by my sudden hostility. 

This scene was probably unfolding too quickly, and not at all as she’d imagined 

“Zora, what the hell were you thinking? Spying on me, is that it?” My gaze remained icy, my voice demanding an answer. “Who gave you the right to act like this? You’re crossing lines, Zora. Are you in such a hurry to take my place as the lady of the house?” 

“Honey.” 

I snapped my gaze to Jaylan, unable to bear my humiliation any longer. “Don’t call me that! Do you even see me as your wife anymore?” Then I pointed at Zora, my voice rising. “did you tell her to do this?” 

I was livid, all my pent–up anger from the past few weeks spilling out. For the first time in a decade, I was lashing out at Jaylan. “Did you think I was on my deathbed, Jaylan? You can’t even wait for that? What do you think I am?” 

Jaylan looked taken aback “Don’t say that, it’s just a misunderstanding. Let’s not fight anymore, okay?” He tried to pull me into a hug, but his familiar scent now made me feel sick to my stomach. My uncontrollable shaking must have really rattled him. He looked stupefied. 

I forcefully broke free from his grasp, glaring at him, accusingly. “Jaylan, do you even feel guilty? Even with my health in this state, you never ask how I’m doing, how my recovery is going, whether I’m eating well, sleeping well, losing hair, feeling nauseous..” 

“I’m sorry, it’s my fault! I just got busy…. 

I cut him off. “Busy with what, Jaylan? Busy with work? Well, how’s that going? Is the company’s profit soaring? Have we landed new projects?” 

He had no answer, playing dumb 

“You’ve been paying less and less attention to the kids, our bank account’s emptied out. What have you been busy with, Jaylan? Doing projects, right? 

Fine, bring them here Bring me the project reports and plans. I have every right to know how these projects are being run. I may not be the current CEO of Medsafe Liyah Inc., but don’t forget. I’m the legal owner. Medsafe Liyah Inc. was founded by my investment, so I have every right to know its project structures 

I purposely hit him where it hurt, speaking the truth he least wanted to hear. But it had to be said, and said forcefully. “if you can’t produce the company’s plans within a week, or replenish our bank account, you can resign. I’ll take over, and you all Dawsons can go home!” 

Jaylan’s face darkened, his gaze turning icy. Just as I expected, he feared losing control. 

I was certain that, until the city planning in Silverdale City was finalized, he wouldn’t dare touch me or allowing me to return to the company. He’d restructured the company, thinking I wouldn’t notice. 

Since we re fighting, let’s go all out. I planned to use this incident to pressure him into returning all the money he’d moved from our joint account. I was sure he wouldn’t confuse his priorities between the company and the potential benefits from my old manor in Silverdale City. 

His change of expression showed he felt the pressure. 

Seeing his defenses crumbling, I smirked. This was just the beginning.
