My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit
Chapter 689 A Complete Failure

"Because Skylight Corporation is the family business of the Raines family, and because I am my father's biological daughter, the only biological daughter!" Sydney had a crazy, proud laugh. "But you, Sydney, were born because your mother committed adultery. You're a bastard! You even don't know who your father really is! So, you're the one who has the least right to inherit Skylight Corporation!" The two security guards and Sean were all stunned by these words.

But the security guards did not think that was important to them. Although they were surprised and wanted to know if Vice President Raines was telling a lie that the chairwoman was not the daughter of the former chairman, they were quite clear that they were just grassroots security guards.

No matter how curious they were, they had to pretend they had heard nothing. Doing their work like the deaf was enough, or they would lose their jobs.

But Sean didn't have to think so much. She walked up and glared at Madeline, saying, "Don't talk nonsense! Madam didn't commit adultery and give birth to the chairwoman!"

In fact, she knew the chairwoman was not the real daughter of the Raines family.

She was her secretary, and the chairwoman had told her about it.

The truth was: The chairwoman was the adopted child of the former chairman and his wife, not a child his wife had given birth to after committing adultery.

At first sight, she could see that Madeline didn't know the truth, but was talking trash here.

But Madeline didn't know what Sean was thinking. Staring at Sydney, she said with a gruesome smile, "I talk nonsense? If you think I'm wrong, let Sydney and me have DNA tests! If the testing results show that we are not biological sisters, then she naturally is a bastard her mother bore after sleeping with another man. If her mother didn't bed another man, secretly give birth to her, and hide it from Dad, how could Dad bring her up? How could she inherit Skylight Corporation and be the chair of the company? Skylight Corporation is the family business of the Raines family. All this should be mine, and that's the right thing She's just a bastard. How could she have the right to be superior to me, the real precious daughter of the Raines family? Therefore, Sydney, you'd better return your shares to me and get out of Skylight Corporation!"

"Hah!" Sydney sneered. Then she patted Madeline's face and looked at her as if she was looking at an idiot. "You're right. I'm not the biological daughter of the Raines family, but my mother did not give birth to me after sleeping with another man, so your smug calculation of asking me to hand out the shares because of this might just be a fantasy."

"You're the one concerned. Of course, you don't want to admit your illegal birth," Madeline looked up and said with disdain.

Sydney flicked her nails and said, "You're a real idiot, Madeline. I guess you don't know the law of inheritance, do you? Not to mention that I am not an illegally born child. Even if I were, as long as my name is on the register of the Raines family, I would be a member of the family and the successor of it. Then you still have no right to ask me to hand out the shares."

"This is impossible!" Madeline changed her expression slightly and roared.

Before Sydney could say anything, Sean rolled her eyes at Madeline and said, "Vice President Raines, this is definitely true. The law of inheritance of our country is the same as that of any other country. If you don't believe me, you can go ask the lawyer."

"How could..." Madeline opened her mouth a few times. Obviously, she could not accept this fact.

"What? You can't accept this?" Sydney asked with a cold smile. "But there's something else that is even harder for you to accept. You've just stressed that Skylight Corporation is the family business of the Raines family, so only the Raines family members have the right to inherit it. Right, Skylight Corporation was indeed the family business of the Raines family six years ago, but it is not now." "Nonsense!" Madeline shouted ferociously.

"The chairwoman is not talking nonsense." Sean pushed up the black-framed glasses over her nose bridge. "You know it anyway. Six years old, to raise funds, the former chairman mortgaged 40% of his shares. It means that Skylight Corporation has not been the family business of the Raines family since that moment. Instead, it has become a joint venture."

"Sean, she doesn't know these things. Use simple words." Sydney glanced at Sean with a chuckle.

"Yes," Sean responded. Then she said, "Vice President Raines, let me put it this way. The shares in the chairwoman's hands were not inherited from the former chairman. You learned it the day you came to Skylight Corporation. Instead, the chairwoman got her shares through her grandfather, President Chase, and others, who bought the shares from other shareholders. Then these shares are not the original shares of the Raines family, but belong to the chairwoman herself. Therefore, whether the chairwoman is a member of the Raines family or not, you have no right to take away her shares. Even if you take the case to the court, you'll get the same result."

"Did you hear that?" Sydney patted Madeline's face again. "Then it's impossible for you to rob my shares because I'm not a member of the Raines family. You were doomed to fail from the very beginning." After hearing their words, Madeline became glassy-faced, her eyes filled with confusion. She even mumbled with disbelief, "How could... this be possible? How could things become like this?"

She had come here with high spirits, even with the thought that she would never fail on this trip.

She had even imagined how to humiliate Sydney after getting the shares.

But this was the result!

"Chairwoman, she seems to have lost her mind," Sean whispered while looking at Madeline's glazed face.

Sydney withdrew her hand from Madeline's face. Before she returned to her office, she pulled out two wet tissues, cleaned her fingers carefully, and answered simply, "She didn't get what she wanted. Then how could she not have lost her mind?"

"In my view, she's stupid," Sean said sarcastically. "If she still has some brains, she must have asked if she should come here this time. But she didn't do it. After learning that you are not the biological daughter of the Raines family, she came over with a hot head. She doesn't even have a basic knowledge of the law. Such a person is bound to fail."

"You're right." Sydney smiled but soon restrained it. Expressionless, she said to the two security guards, "Throw her out."

"Yes, chairwoman." As they responded, the two security guards took Madeline, who had not come back to her senses, outside.

After thinking for a moment, Sean said, "I'll go too. I'll tell them not to spread rumors."

"Okay." Sydney nodded.

After Sean left, she pulled out her chair, sat down again, rubbed the spot between her brows, and exhaled deeply.

After going through the trouble Madeline had caused, Sydney now had a headache, thinking, "But I got something unexpected this time. At least, I've learned how Madeline has found out that I am not the biological daughter of the Raines family.

"Madeline said that after she heard at the hospital that my kidney matched Brandon's, she then suspected that I am not the daughter of the Raines family.

"Obviously, she had seen me converse with Denna that day.

"She happened to be hospitalized at that time, too.

"To my surprise, she was so sharp-witted. Only by learning that my kidney matched Brandon's did she begin suspecting my identity. It shows that she has some brains and isn't completely stupid. "During this time, I've been thinking about why my kidney matched Brandon's.

"Finn had said that Brandon's body and blood type are special, so it was hard to find one that could match his organ.

"But something so difficult happened to me-my organ matched Brandon's.

"Does this really mean that the enmity between the Raines and Madden families is the most ridiculous prank made by God?"

Sydney sneered helplessly, then went to take the broom from the corner, hoping to clean the mess on the floor.

Although her kidney matched Brandon's, she didn't have the thought that she had any relations with him, nor had she thought that she was his daughter.

After all, more than twenty years ago, her dad and Brandon bore so much hatred against each other, so how could her dad raise his enemy's daughter?
