Chapter 695
“This cutting-edge technology is valued at several billion dollars. The entire Mueller family is facing financial strains; they can’t afford to pay the fines.”
Yet, Jonathan remained unfazed. “That’s none of my concern. I merely loaned some money to Brandon. That’s the extent of my involvement.”
He was cautious, making sure his role was limited to causing Eileen trouble without getting involved in the broader issues.
Brandon then stood and pointed to two contracts on the table. “Eileen, there’s no escaping today. One contract is for the EB Group, and the other is for the Apex Group. You need to transfer your shares in these two groups to me. Even without these two, you still have the Warren Group and the Ferguson Group. They’re more than enough to ensure a life of luxury for you.”
Brandon was demanding that Eileen hand over control of both EB Group and Apex Group to him.
“Even though Truett managed to delay Raymond and divert attention to aid your success, he must have confessed to your crimes. Even if I sign these today, you won’t be able to take over EB Group and Apex Group,” Eileen said calmly to Brandon. “Once you walk out of this hotel, you’ll be arrested for economic crimes. Trapping me here won’t benefit you; it’ll only add another charge to your list.”
Brandon clenched his jaw and responded, “You better understand your position now and not involve the police over such a minor matter!”
He was attempting to convince Eileen to avoid escalating the situation and to compromise.
But Eileen knew that if Brandon secured the EB Group and Apex Group and she conceded, he would gain too much. That wasn’t fair.
“Brandon, do you have no shame?” Eileen’s rising fury was triggered by the sight of Brandon’s audacious demeanor. “Bryan is your own son. Your cruelty towards him is unbearable. You are unworthy of being called a father!”
Her voice rang out, loud in the dining room, creating a slight echo.

Jonathan sat nearby, waiting for them to conclude their discussion.
However, observing that they were on the verge of physical conflict, Jonathan intervened with impatience. “Brandon, wrap this up. I don’t have time for this.”
“He is not deserving of being my son!” Brandon declared coldly, slamming the contracts down on the table. “Sign these!”
Eileen turned her head away, her response firm. “No, I refuse to do that.”
Before she could say more, Brandon grabbed her wrist and forcefully pushed her against the table. The dishes crashed to the floor with a loud shattering sound, causing Eileen to stumble.
Taken aback by Brandon’s aggressive action, Eileen’s bodyguards quickly moved in, only to be surrounded by men in black who stormed in. A fierce skirmish broke out.
Eileen fell to the floor, and shards of glass pierced her elbow, causing her to wince in pain, her face paling from the sudden injury.
Brandon yanked Eileen to her feet and shoved her against the railing. Part of her body dangled dangerously over the edge, threatening to send her plummeting at any moment.
“Eileen, die here or hand over the EB Group and Apex Group! Make your choice!” he shouted, nearly losing his sanity.
