Chapter 712

Chapter 712:
Had she known about his plans earlier, she could have cleaned up his mess. In that way, she could have prevented Candice from discovering the damaging evidence. Now, Corless was behind bars, facing an uncertain future. She had exhausted her contacts to get the information. The situation was too dire and too public to manage discreetly. The sentence of life imprisonment for Corless was all but assured, an unalterable truth.
Corless was doomed to a life behind bars!
And Candice was the one to blame for all this.
After Corless’ accident, Warren Building Materials had taken a nosedive. The company’s credibility was in shambles, its reputation tarnished. Their old allies in banking had withdrawn support, refusing to finance them.
Contract after contract was canceled, while funds expected to alleviate the capital pressure were withheld. None of their past collaborators offered a lifeline in these troubled times. It appeared as though they were like monsters, capable of tarnishing their reputation once they became entangled with them.
Facing a severed financial lifeline, Warren Building Materials had no other path but forward toward bankruptcy.
In the midst of this crisis, Royal Garden Corporation emerged with a proposal to take over, already owning a sizeable chunk of Warren Building Materials in the stock market. This was unquestionably a relief to the shareholders of Warren Building Materials.
Indeed, if Warren Building Materials continued spiraling downward, all that would be left was an enormous pile of debts. Therefore, it seemed more reasonable to salvage what value remained while someone was still interested.
For the government, managing the unemployment of tens of thousands of citizens was a massive headache. So, when Royal Garden Corporation expressed their willingness to step in, the authorities were understandably eager to facilitate the process.
In light of this, all shareholders promptly approved and signed the acquisition agreement.

From then on, the ownership of Warren Building Materials shifted. Her father, already battling ill-health, took a turn for the worse due to this development, ending up hospitalized. Her mother, previously reliant on her husband and son for guidance, was at a loss, spending her days in a flood of tears. Consequently, her mother moved to a nursing home with her father. All the residual chaos of the family situation was left for her to handle.
When she contemplated this, Cathy’s anger bubbled up. The entirety of life’s responsibilities seemed to weigh solely on her shoulders.
Yet there was something even more unsettling.
Only when Corless was incarcerated did she discover that he had taken out substantial loans for his personal whims and temporary cashflow needs. Now, with Corless behind bars, all the creditors turned to her.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The door was pounded upon insistently.
Ignoring it wasn’t an option for Cathy.
Even before she had a chance to respond, the door was forcibly swung open.
