Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 366 Uncovering My Wife’s Secrets

Preston immediately took a big step forward and stood in front of Lianne. In the past, it was always his sister who

protected him. It would be his turn to protect her in the future. “What are you doing? I’m just asking Lianne for her

phone.” Jared looked at Preston with annoyance. He had to format Lianne’s phone and completely destroyed the

will video right away. “What do you want my phone for?” Lianne asked as she took out her phone. Jared snatched it

over and formatted it at once. “What are you doing?” Lianne asked. “Why do you have so many questions?” After

formatting her daughter’s phone, Jared felt as if a great weight had been lifted off his shoulder. Suddenly, Mia

exclaimed, “Dad, look at the news!” “What?” Jared asked. Mia immediately handed her phone to Jared. They had

made headlines on different online news sites. “Madam Blake Has Made a Will, Preston Will Take Over Blake

Corporation” “Madam Blake Has Made a Will, Who Will Take Charge of Blake Corporation? “Winner of the

Inheritance Dispute of Blake Corporation, Legitimate Son or Illegitimate Son?” “Satisfying! The Greatest Respect for

Marriage Is to Leave All Inheritance to the Legitimate Child” Jared clicked on the news and saw the reporter’s sappy

narration of the Blake family’s situation at great lengths.

There was even a complete video regarding the will attached in the middle. The reporter applauded: According to

sources, after Preston Blake lost his memory in a car accident six years ago, his IQ regressed to that of a child. But

Annalise cured his amnesia in less than two months. She is indeed Master Quigley’s proudest student… Jared glared

at Lianne angrily. “You sent the video to the press?” “Is there a problem? The will itself is something that should be

made known,” Lianne said calmly. She was extremely grateful to Annalise and Julian. Annalise had miraculously

cured her brother’s illness and stabilized her grandma’s condition, Whereas Julian had acted ahead and

immediately sent the video to the media, destroying all possible ways out of Jared. Otherwise, if Jared deleted the

video, the situation would probably become complicated. Preston, Lianne, and their grandmother would be in

danger. For someone as devious as Jared, he would probably burn them all to death, so he would be able to have

Blake Corporation to his himself.

In the past, Lianne thought that no matter how evil Jared was, he still had a shred of conscience and humanity left

with him. But after what had happened to her brother, she finally realized that he was heartless, and he was an

animal. Even if there was no evidence, she knew that the beast was the one who caused her grandmother to vomit

so much blood today. Although the video was made public, there was still a risk. Just like what Michelle had said,

they could claim that the old lady was terminally ill, muddle-headed, and mentally unsound. Therefore, the will she

made did not count. After all, the will had not been notarized. Jared’s roots sunk deep in Blake Corporation and he

had many supporters after being at the helm of the company for so many years, What they had to do next was to

transfer their grandmother to a safe place before taking control of Blake Corporation.

They had already called Metropolis Hospital to pick the old lady up just now. Jared stared at the news again. The

more he read it, the grimmer his eyes became. He wondered if there was any way to turn the situation around. “Kill

the old lady and deny everything in the video? “That’s going to be very hard. “Both Preston and Lianne are around.

It would be difficult for me to do anything to mom again. “Moreover, the video has been made public. I don’t think I

can deny it. Everyone could see that although Mom is weak, she has a sober mind. “And a will doesn’t need to be

notarized to be valid as long as it is made according to the testator’s will and is properly constructed and witnessed.

“What should I do then?” Jared frowned. If there was no better solution, he could only think of a way to pin the

blame on Preston. He had to find a way to frame Preston for causing the old lady to vomit blood and accused

Preston of feeding her poison. “A person who tries to kill his grandmother is naturally not qualified to inherit the

family business. “But why would Preston want to kill Mom? “Of course, he wants to take ownership of Blake

Corporation sooner. And why does he want to get Blake Corporation?

“Which young man from a wealthy family doesn’t want to be a successor? Not to mention that Preston is my ex-

wife’s child. He hates his stepmother and her children to the bone.” After figuring that out, Jared immediately took

out his phone to take photos. He aimed the camera at the old lady and then at the carpet. Especially the blood that

looked appalling on the carpet, he took a close-up shot of it. Lianne knew to use the power of the media, and so did

he, “A rumor told repeatedly will be accepted as truth.” All he needed to do was to get some people to spread the

rumors, Brainless netizens would buy it and chew Preston out. If more and more people were talking about it,

everyone would believe that it was Preston who wanted to kill the old lady. Seeing Jared taking photos, Preston

followed suit. “What are you doing?” Jared asked his son irritably. “I’m probably doing the same thing as you are,”

Preston said coldly. He had been through hell once six years ago. He wouldn’t give Jared any chance to make

baseless accusations against him again. No. Never! Now, it was payback time. Preston wanted to get back

everything his father owed him, his grandmother, and his mother. Jared snorted and continued taking photos.

However, Preston was calling 911. “Hello, I want to make a report.” He wanted to strike first. Jared was probably

feeling guilty. He immediately looked up at Preston and asked, “What are you doing?” “Can’t you tell? I’m calling the

police.”

Preston then told the person on the other side of the phone that his grandmother had been poisoned. After hanging

up the phone, Jared scolded Preston. “What poison? Jonathan Woods failed to treat your grandmother. Besides,

she’s old and weak now. That’s why she had a relapse.” “I believe the police will investigate whether it’s a relapse

or poison,” Preston said. Jared’s heart missed a beat. He felt that Preston’s attitude towards him was a bit strange.

He couldn’t help but wonder, “Did he find out what happened six years ago?” Outside, the siren of an ambulance

was howling. Preston and Lianne glanced at each other and helped Grandma up. What are you guys doing?” Jared

asked. “Take Grandma to the hospital,” Lianne replied. Judging from Grandma’s current condition, sending her to

Metropolis Hospital to convalesce would be the safest. “Okay, just send her to the hospital.

I’ll go with you.” Jared reached out to take Madam Blake’s coat. Jared thought that since his mother was so tough,

he might as well send her to the hospital for treatment first. If he could convince her that it was Preston who

poisoned her, the old lady would probably change her will. Seeing that everyone was going to the hospital, Michelle

walked to the coffee table and wanted to take the bowl away. Jared told her off, “What are you doing? Don’t we

have servants at home? Do you enjoy doing house chores so much?” He thought, “This will arouse others’

suspicion? How stupid!” “Lucy, tidy it up,” Michelle instructed. Lucy had mixed feelings. She still could not figure out

what went wrong as she was the one who had been feeding the medicine soup to Madam Blake. She didn’t

understand why the old lady suddenly coughed up blood.
