Chapter 191: The Awakening of a Lover and a Mother

"Aunt, calm down." Victoria held Mrs. Clegg's hand tightly. "Don't panic, we're still here for the Clegg Family, we're all here."

"Mother," Shawn Clegg interjected, "Is my eldest brother really going to cut off all ties with our family?"

Mrs. Clegg began to sob, "I thought he was just blowing off steam last night. I thought he was just annoyed with us. Your father is in such a condition, I thought he would let it pass after venting a bit... Who would have known that he really... He has already made a public announcement that he's giving up his inheritance... He resigned from all his positions... The share price has plummeted today, rumours are swirling everywhere, and the corporation is in chaos..."

"Mother," Shawn Clegg sat up, gritting his teeth, "Our family still has me, I can still..."

Victoria was right; he had been too capricious.

Due to his emotional distress, blindness and disfigurement, he had contemplated suicide.
