Seven Years of Marriage with Jake

Book 3- Chapter 3

A blurry image in my memory piqued my curiosity. It turned out Lilly hated the Parker family.

I raised an eyebrow slightly, smiled and nodded at him, agreeing to contact Lilly soon.

Sebastian was overjoyed, praising me as the Parker family's good daughter.

I crossed my arms, curled my lips, and changed the subject, smoothing my bangs.

"If you want me to ask Lilly for a favor, that's fine, but this project must be mine to handle! The shares related to this project must also be signed over to my name!"

"What? Helen, have you gone mad? That's a Parker family project. You'll eventually marry out of the family. The Parker family's projects can't possibly be given to an outsider!" "Those shares belong to your elder brother too. They have nothing to do with you!"

Sebastian was furious.

I shrugged and smiled at him.

"Then I'm powerless to help. Please see yourself out!"

"Helen! You're asking for death!"

Sebastian raised his hand once again. I lifted my head to meet it, staring at him without the slightest fear.

Anger and the thirst for revenge made me feel invigorated.

Sebastian paused for a moment. I clearly saw his pupils contract slightly.

He was afraid.

Helen, who had been a good girl for twenty years and showed no interest in company affairs, had suddenly changed her personality. It caught him completely off guard.

He slowly lowered his arm, squeezing out the words "The project is yours to handle! The shares will be transferred to you!"

through gritted teeth.

"Thank you, Dad. As soon as I get the company's project transfer contract and share confirmation document, I'll contact Lilly immediately."

I sneered, speaking to his back as he left.

Before noon, Sebastian brought the project transfer contract and confirmation document.

I was satisfied and left with the contract.

In the afternoon, I brought Lilly back to the Parker house.

Lilly wore a fitting professional short skirt suit, light makeup, her hair tied up high, looking neat and sharp.

"If you want me to help your Parker family, it's not impossible.

As long as you agree to one condition, the funds can be transferred immediately."

"Lilly, just say it. As long as you're willing to help, forget one condition, even if it's eight or ten, we'll agree to all of them."

"Yes, Lilly, we haven't seen you in years, and you've grown into such a fine young lady. As long as you're willing to help our Philip Parker, we'll agree to any condition." Sebastian and Sofia nodded repeatedly.

At this critical moment of life and death, the couple was truly of one mind.

Just like that snowy day when they watched me die.

I wonder how Sofia would react if she knew this project was already in my name, and the shares that originally belonged to her eldest son now belonged to me?

Philip Parker looked at Lilly as if he had seen a savior, his eyes never leaving her.

"I want Sofia to kowtow three times at my mother's grave!"

"Lilly! Don't go too far!"

"Lilly, isn't that a bit excessive?"

Sofia and Sebastian's expressions changed abruptly, their smiles coming to a sudden halt.

The expressions on their faces had gone from puzzlement and surprise to anger now.

I chuckled lightly. When asking for help, one should have the demeanor of a supplicant. How could the Parker family change their attitude so quickly when the client had just put forward one condition? "I only have five minutes. Think it over carefully. The offer expires after that!"

Lilly and I exchanged smiles.

Sofia refused to kowtow no matter what. Sebastian slapped her, and her wails filled the air.

"Mom, it's just three kowtows. Without this project, not only will I fail to enter the board of directors and get shares, but the Parker family company will also go bankrupt!"

"Even if you beat me to death, I won't do it!"

"Expecting me to kneel before that woman! Impossible!"

I looked at my brother, who was playing with his phone nearby, and tilted my head slightly, fixing my gaze on his eyes.

"So noisy! So noisy! Mom! You've already taken me to kowtow to that old man before. What's the big deal about doing it again?!"

"Isn't that old man my real dad? He's buried with that woman, so just think of it as kowtowing to my real dad.. Your crying is so annoying! Can't you let people play their games in peace!"

The scene suddenly fell silent, everyone turned to look at the Parker family's youngest son in unison.

I smiled slightly and shifted my gaze.

The Parker family was truly lively.

Sebastian, didn't you say you didn't like children? Well, here's a big gift for you.
