Mystery Bride's Revenge (Selina)

Chapter 321

Martin smirked and commented, "Looks like the news has already reached you. The Harvey family must have been your source, so I'll skip the formatics"

Ashley turned to Sofia and asked, "How did you come across someone like him?"

Having been established for ten years, Lucky Group had amassed considerable wealth, allowing it to hold its ground against the Harvey Group.

Otherwise, despite the Harvey Group's gradual overseas expansion, it had already cemented its status as a top-tier corporation in Clusia. With its vast financial resources, few could rival the Harvey Group.

"It was a chance encounter with Martin 15 years ago. Back then, I had wealth, but my life felt hollow and bleak. After losing you and enduring so much, I couldn't bring myself to return home. I was lost, but Martin was the beacon that lit up my world, filling it with the brilliance of countless fireworks. Life with him has changed me for the better, Sofia recounted.

*Sofia, you are the divine light that has graced my life. Before I met you, I had no idea what love truly was. You showed me its meaning. Thank you," Martin expressed

Sofia and Martin smiled at each other. Ashley, ignoring their public display of affection, mused, 'Even if Martin learned that Sofia and Quinton were together and had me 15 years ago, that was ages ago. Sofia was out of the picture for so many years. There's no way he could have been plotting and manipulating her against the Harvey family for all that time!

why you

Without that concern holding her, Ashley spoke up. "So you discovered that Sofia is my birth mother and learned about her past. Is that why approached me to team up against the Harvey family!"

Martin nodded and explained, "At first, Sofia didn't want to go through with it. She feared her presence might disrupt your life and make you a target for the Harvey family. But when we realized your standing in the family was slipping, and after everything that occurred, we decided to come to you and offer you a choice. Even if you turned us down, Sofia wanted to compensate you with money so you wouldn't be vulnerable in the Harvey family"

"Knowing what she did in the past, doesn't it bother you at all? You're someone who can compete with the Harvey Group on equal footing, and there are countless women who admire you. So why did you choose my mother? Ashley asked

Martin remained silent for a moment, causing Sofia to grow nervous as she studied his face. But then he answered firmly. "Because I love her. Love doesn't need a reason. As they say in Clusia, out of all the women in the world. I chose her. Besides, Sofia and I have been together for so long. She knows my love is true."

Sofia let out a breath of relief and said, "Ashley, I understand your concerns. Martin and I have spent the last 15 years together, working day and night to build something of our own. We've learned to truly understand one another. I know that Martin doesn't focus on my past because we're focused on our life together now and what's ahead"

Ashley paused, weighing her words before speaking. "Tm suing on some vital information about the Harvey Group. If you can come up with 170 million dollars, it's yours.

Martin responded, "That's quite a sum. What exactly is this information?"

"I have the Harvey Group's financial statements, which are damning enough to put Quinton behind bars. With these documents, you could expose a massive Harvey Group scandal and bring Quinton down. Once he's out of the way, you'll have a prime opportunity to seize control"

Martin's eyes gleamed as he asked, "Where'd you get hold of such an important document?"

"I'm not clueless. As soon as I discovered I wasn't Sara's biological child. I began planning for my future. I feared that one day the Harvey family might turn against me, so I wanted to have an escape route, Ashley explained.

"While Patrick was watching me closely at home, I had to be discreet. But with him away on business in Yondora, I took full advantage of the situation to refine my abilities. The Harvey family never suspected 1 was secretly gathering such critical information," she continued.

Ashley would have preferred to keep it if she could. The Harvey family had raised her, and it was impossible to deny that she held affection for them.

'Sorry: Ashley reflected silently. But I have to look out for myself. The perfect buyer for this information is right here. I must offload this information, escape the Harvey family, and leave Clusia for a carefree life. It's far better being constantly watched by Patrick's agents, like a prisoner

Martin complimented, "Sofia, your daughter is sharp. So, where's the information"

Ashley responded, I've concealed it in a secure and secret location. Will you agree to my terms?

Martin agreed. "Certainly. If the information is as valuable as you claim. I'll gladly pay 170 million dollars for it

"Okay, before we finalize the deal, make sure you've set up the escape plan and everything my mother requested. Once I hand over the information and receive the payment. III vanish without a trace and never return to Clusia, Ashley stated. "Got it." Martin confirmed.

Unbeknownst to them. Selina was listening in on their entire conversation.

"Looks like Ashley was holding onto that information. Quite impressive," Selina commented, clearly impressed.

Regardless of the Harvey family's affection for Ashley in the past, it would have been impossible for her to easily obtain such sensitive information.

Selina thought the Harvey family had been foolish, having spoiled Ashley to a criminal extent. Yet, Ashley managed to navigate the dangers within the Harvey family and uncover such incriminating evidence.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

With the clue from Ashley, Selina tapped into her top-notch hacking skills to track down the information swiftly and successfully made a copy ahead of time.

Suddenly, Selina became curious about the Harvey family's development in her previous life.

Ashley revealed that if her true identity as not being Sara's biological child were exposed, these documents would serve as her trump card against the Harvey family.

I wonder if Ashley ever had to use her trump card after setting me up, which led to the Harvey family taking me out in the past. Either way, now that she has handed this information over to Martin and Solia, the Harvey family will be in serious trouble, Selina mused.

At that moment, the Harvey family remained oblivious to the impending chaos. Everything was tranquil, like a calm sea, just before the storm hit. The five Harvey brothers were juggling Sara's care while managing the fallout from Ashley's incident, which affected the Harvey Group. They were also fending off persistent harassment from the Insight Group and other major players, leaving them swamped with tasks.

Meanwhile, Quinton focused on comforting Sara and casing her pain, blissfully unaware that Ashley had already struck a deal with the Harvey Group's fiercest competitor, the Lucky Group.

The seamless transaction between Ashley and Martin was made possible by Selina's discreet intervention. No one in the Harvey family suspected anything.
