Chapter 1172 - 1173: Unable to Find Anyone to Help
"Miles, you are truly heartless!"
Anna listened with anger. She knew her grandfather exchanged Morgan Corporation shares for Thorne Group interests, but she didn’t expect Miles to secretly convince their mother to give him all the shares left by their grandfather.
"Anna!"
Being reprimanded by his daughter, Miles’s voice turned angry.
"Back then, when Morgan Corporation was in trouble, I didn’t deceive your mother."
"If you didn’t deceive her, then return the shares now, either to me or to Anna and Zachary." Mrs. Monroe’s voice grew stern.
Once it was given to Miles, making him give it back was impossible.
He had long calculated against Mrs. Monroe. He knew he would cheat someday, so he pocketed all the assets held by Mrs. Monroe and cleared his own assets.
Now, he owed a lot of debt.
"Twenty-seven years, we’ve been together for so long."
"Anna and Zachary are so grown up, there’s no need to make a fuss to the point of divorce over such matters."
Miles continued, steering the conversation toward the crucial point.
"How about this, let’s each take a step back."
"I’ll have Ivy and her crew move out of the Morgan Family, so there’s no reason in the future for them to appear before you."
Miles felt this was a great concession to Mrs. Monroe.
"You’re still going to be with her," Mrs. Monroe straightened up and asked while looking at Miles.
"Of course, she’s carrying my child," Miles said with a smile, "I can’t be so cruel!"
Not be so cruel?
The hypocrisy of these words made Anna want to rush forward and fight.
Mrs. Monroe grabbed Anna’s hand, stopping her from laying a hand on Miles.
Miles watched as Mrs. Monroe stood up and approached him, then he slowly stood up as well.
"Once this is settled..."
He didn’t finish his sentence as he stood at Mrs. Monroe’s arm’s reach, and her fury brought down a heavy slap.
Taken off guard by Mrs. Monroe’s hit, Miles was momentarily stunned, quickly seizing her wrist.
"What are you doing!"
Seeing Miles was about to lay hands on Mrs. Monroe, Anna swiftly kicked him, ignoring the fact that he was her father and not caring if this incident would affect her reputation if it got out.
"Miles," said Ivy, who had been hiding upstairs watching the drama unfold. Seeing Anna lay hands on Miles, she rushed downstairs to check on him.
By comparison, Miles preferred Ivy even more.

"Mom, stand back," Anna shielded Mrs. Monroe from behind. She looked up at Miles, who had been kicked back onto the sofa, and that shameless seductress.
"Don’t think you can control everything, and don’t think that what you say is clean."
"My mom wants a divorce and half of your shares, and as for the debt, handle it yourself."
Anna’s voice resonated firmly.
"Haha!" Miles sneered, "If I refuse to give them, will you hire a lawyer?"
"Anna, in the whole of Solaria, which lawyer dares fight this case for you!"
With his current power, he ensured Anna and Mrs. Monroe couldn’t find a lawyer.
Because no one would dare take the case!
"Mrs. Monroe," Ivy, supporting Miles, chimed in, "I promise you I won’t come to The Monroe Residence, so don’t divorce Miles."
"Besides, you can’t even get a lawyer to handle your divorce, isn’t this a guaranteed loss!"
Ivy finished speaking, curling her lips into a smile.
Mrs. Monroe and her family were at such a low point now!
"Sir," during the tense standoff, a servant rushed in from the doorway. She approached Miles and said, "There’s a lawyer outside named Mr. Zhang."
