This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 689 Fall Short

“I’m the actual owner of Paradigm Co. because it belongs to the Reed Family, and I’m my father’s only biological daughter!” A bizarre and pleased smile appeared on Jessica’s face. “You are just an illegitimate child conceived after your mother cheated with a random man. You’re the last person that has the right to inherit Paradigm Co.!”

Immediately, the two security guards and Daphne were shocked.

Still, even though the security guards were shocked and wanted to know if Jessica was speaking the truth or not or if Sonia was the biological daughter of the past chairman, they knew their places as mere employees.

Even if the gossip was extremely juicy, they had to act as if they hadn’t heard anything and continue on with their role to not lose their jobs.

On the other hand, Daphne didn’t have much to worry about as she went forward and glared at Jessica in anger. “What are you babbling about? Chairman Reed is not an illegitimate child!”

Truthfully, she knew Sonia didn’t belong to the Reeds biologically, as Sonia had already told her about it because she was Sonia’s secretary. Hence, she knew that Sonia was adopted by the previous chairman instead of being an illegitimate child.

Why is Jessica making outrageous claims here when she doesn’t even know the real situation?

Unbeknownst to Daphne’s thoughts, Jessica looked at Sonia before smiling sinisterly. “I’m babbling? Why don’t you get Sonia to have a DNA test done if you want to know if I’m telling the truth? If the report shows that we are not biological sisters, it would mean that Sonia’s mother gave birth to her secretly after cheating and kept it a secret from our father. Why would he raise her or let her inherit Paradigm Co and be the chairman if he knew about this? Paradigm Co. is the Reed Family’s family business, and all of it should belong to me because she’s nothing but an imbecile. How could someone like that climb over the shoulder of the real young lady of the Reed Family? Sonia, you better return your company’s share back to me and get out of Paradigm Co.!”

“Haha!” Sonia chuckled before she reached out to pat Jessica’s cheek while staring at her as if she was a fool. “You’re not wrong. I’m indeed not the Reed Family’s biological daughter, but I wasn’t born because my mother cheated as well, so if you want to use this to get me to give you the company share, it won’t be happening.”

“You’re an involved party. It’s obvious that you wouldn’t admit to getting born because your mother cheated,” Jessica looked up and said disdainfully while Sonia snapped her fingers. “I can’t believe you’re that much of a fool. Jessica, don’t you know of the inheritance law? Even if I’m an illegitimate child, which I am not, as long as I’m in the Reed Family’s account, I still have the right to inherit the company, so you have no right to make me return my share of the company.”
