Chapter 129 When George saw Adina coming over, he casually got up and left. After he took two steps,
his phone vibrated. He glanced at it, and the caller ID was (Mom). He pursed his lips like Duke before he
picked up the call.
Just as he pressed the answer button, sounds of sobbing came from the other end of the line.” George,
I’m doomed. I’m totally doomed.”
George frowned. “Mom, please speak slowly. I’m listening.”
“Adina set me up. I’ve been forced to resign from the position of Daugherty Corporation’s general
manager, and I’ll never be able to join the Board of Directors!” Dew cried and yelled.“ I’m Daugherty
Corporation’s heiress and the company’s second biggest shareholder. I don’t want to accept that.
George, help me. You have to help me.”
George frowned even more. “Why would this happen?” Why had a big shareholder of the company been

He slowly asked, “Mom, did you do anything to anger the Board of Directors?”
“L… I…” Dew mentally broke down and cried. “Last year for your birthday, in order to buy you a birthday
present, I… I embezzled $100,000,000 from Daugherty Corporation’s public funds. Adina found the
evidence somewhere and forced me to resign.”
“Embezzlement of money is actually unforgivable,” George said indifferently. “Please don’t cry, Mom.
This really is your fault.”
“George, how can you say the same thing as those people? I made a mistake, but was Adina, right? She
purposely showed the evidence to so many people and used all sorts of methods to force me to quit the
Board of Directors! She is like a starving wolf that wants to take over everything of Daugherty family
regardless of all! George, I end up like this because I bought a birthday present for you. You have to help
me out!”
George’s eyes were full of coldness.
The birthday present he received on his birthday last year was a piece of jade. He knew a bit about jade.
The jade that his mother gave him was worth at most two million dollars.
But now, his mother actually said she embezzled one hundred million dollars because of him.
His mother just put such a huge blame on him without hesitation.
This was his mother.
She was such a selfish woman.
George scoffed. “Mom, how do you want me to help you?”
“Make Adina take out everything that she has taken away!” Dew gritted her teeth and said, ” George, I
know you’re smart, so you must have an idea! I’m your mother. I’m so wronged now. You have to find
justice for me!”

crazy. “If you don’t help me, I’m going to do it in my own way!” “Okay, I’ll help you.” George indifferently
hung up. His mother’s methods were too profound and cruel. He did not want his mother to kill people. If
someone had to deal with Adina, he would be the one. He would silently make this woman pay the price.
George stopped walking, and he stood outside the restaurant to wait. Adina quickly rushed out. When
she saw that he had not left, she obviously sighed in relief. She flashed a gentle smile, bent down, and
softly asked, “Hello, do you remember me?” Her voice was very gentle like the rainwater dropped from
the rooftop onto the green slate drop by drop and slowly scattered around. George’s irritable mood was
strangely calmed. He raised his head and stared at Adina. His voice was very indifferent. “Yes.” Adina
smiled more brightly. “You helped me last time, but I haven’t thanked you yet. Let me give you a present.”
“You don’t have to.” George stared at her, and the corners of his lips suddenly became cold.” You just
need to answer one question.”
Adina was stunned. This kid had an extremely strong imposing manner. Besides, why did his darkened
expression look slightly familiar?
