Chapter 1349 The Threat of Evidence

After speaking, Eugene forcefully pushed him away.

Ace was pushed far away. As Finley and the others closed in, a surge of panic overwhelmed him, and he desperately clung to Jade. “Jade… Jade, please save me!”

However, Jade remained unmoved by his pleas and coldly responded, “You brought this upon yourself. The consequences you face today are the result of your actions.” After saying that, she tried to break free from his grasp.

However, Ace stubbornly held onto her and refused to let go. “Jade, we were once bound as husband and wife. You can’t simply leave me like this!”

With a fit of unusual anger burning in his eyes, Eugene walked over and delivered a swift kick to Ace. “Since your son is present today, I’ll spare you some dignity. But mark my words, Ace Baker—if you ever try to harm them again, I will make sure you’re done for!”

Left lying motionless on the ground after the forceful kick, Ace felt a profound sense of despair. “Nathan, are you not going to help me too?” he pleaded.

Standing not far away, Nathan remained silent and looked at his father expressionlessly.

Glancing at Nathan and noting his unwavering stance, Eugene then shifted his gaze to Jade and questioned, “To whom did you give this house when you divorced?”

Jade’s response was filled with disdain as she looked at Ace. “To him,” she replied.

Fully aware of Ace’s persistent nature, Jade had willingly granted him control of every property he was aware of to avoid his interference.

As for herself, she had converted the company into stocks and cash, unconcerned about the possibility of him benefiting slightly from it. Her primary objective was to sever all ties completely, ensuring he wouldn’t find any valuable assets to exploit.

Since ten years ago, Eugene had always wanted them to divorce, and now he could only feel a sense of relief for his sister. He nodded in agreement and added, “Pay attention to the news tomorrow before 10.00AM. If there’s no public apology from the Snow Family and Ace, I’ll hand over the evidence to the police.”

His words were clearly directed at Ace and the Snow Family.

Jade quietly acknowledged his instruction in a soft voice.

After they departed, the room erupted with a tumultuous series of banging and crashing sounds.

“Ace Baker, you son of a b*tch! Do you think you can toy with me like a monkey?! If I don’t end you today, then it will be the end of me!”

Ace’s agonizing screams filled the room. “Argh! Finley, let me explain—don’t hit me! Don’t hit me! How much money did you lose? I promise to cover all the losses, alright?” he pleaded, desperate to save himself from further harm.

Nathan walked out without looking back, especially Eugene, whose footsteps quickened as if he

She didn’t despise me for not being knowledgeable or having no skills whatsoever, nor did she frown on me for staying in her rented house, sitting around doing nothing. I barely had enough to eat back then, being chased by loan sharks everywhere. I even contemplated ending it all! I was unconscious for three full days, during which she took care of me 24/7.
