Chapter 855 Chelsea never used to care about the Tierney fortune. She only wanted to be respected and recognized by her family.
Now, however, she did not need anybody’s respect. She only wanted the entire Tierney fortune in her hands!
It was the first day of work over at Sterling Group.
Nobody expected Elliot, who was about to be married, to show up at the office first thing in the morning.
However, he stayed in his office the entire time and did not step out even once.
The vice president and the Chief Financial Officers were the ones who distributed that year’s annual bonuses. Of course, the employees would not let go of this opportunity to find out the truth behind the gossip “Is Mr. Foster really marrying Chelsea Tierney, Sir? Why is he doing this?”
The vice president was distressed. “I really don’t know anything about this. How about you ask Mr. Schaffer?”
“How would I know anything about the boss’s personal life?” Ben said with a comical expression on his face. “I only found out after the news broke myself. If you really want to know, you can go to his office and ask him in person!”
The employees waved their hands in the air in refusal.
“You’re close friends with the boss, right, Mr. Schaffer? Won’t you help him out?”
“I know you’re concerned for the boss, but you shouldn’t be this pessimistic,” Ben said. ” People can get legally married, “When His Eyes open” but they can get divorced, too!” Looks of shock instantly appeared on everyone’s faces. Once they were done distributing the bonuses, the vice president pulled Ben aside and asked,” When is Mr. Foster getting a divorce?” “He isn’t even married yet,” Ben said. “How am I supposed to know when he’s gettinged divorced?”
“I thought Mr. Foster told you about his plan!” “What plan? Why didn’t I know he had ale plan?” “Isn’t Mr. Foster marrying Chelsea Tierney so we could get into business with Trust Capital?” Ben did not know whether to laugh or94 cry. “Even if we do work with Trust Capital, they’d be the ones using us to make more money! Also, the seven hundred and seventy-five dollars was exaggerated in the news. It’s already been wired over to Charlie Tierney.”
“It looks like Charlie Tiemney’s really got something on Mr.18 Foster.”
Ben did not comment on that, but said, “It’s too bad someone won’t sympathize with him because of that.”
“Who are you talking about?” asked the vice president,d3 confused. Ben raised his brows but did not say anything. “Oh! You mean Avery Tate, right?” The vice president understood him.
“If Avery Tate was marrying another man, I doubt Mr. Foster would be able to respect her choice and silently wait for her. I’ll change my last name if he doesn’t murder thatcb man.” Ben had no retort. Over in Bridgedale, Layla was lying in bed in the children’s room. Her eyes were wide open as she mumbled, “I don’t believe that Daddy is a bad man, Hayden… He didn’t blame me when I lost his stuff last time…”
Layla’s words struck Hayden like an electric shock.
A lightbulb lit up in his mind. Could Elliot’s sudden decision to marry Chelsea Tierney have something to do with the thing that the Tierneys took away? Hayden despised Elliot but seeing how his actions hurt his mother and sister made him feel very upset.
Was his scandal not just the fact that he had a psychological illness? Elliot was such a proud man and so afraid of people finding out about this that he ended up getting controlled by the Tierneys because of this. Hayden did not want to get involved in his business, but he simply could not accept how arrogantly the Tierneys were behaving!
