Chapter 22: Old Dirt Dug Again
"Business Tycoon David Stone had tried to kill his own niece.'' The newspaper headlines were printed in bold letters on page number four. Though they were not headlines, page four where latest gossips were printed is sometimes more popular than headlines.
David tore the paper until it was beyond recognition and threw it on the ground with force.
His wife took out her phone and read the details.
"Leonora, the real heiress of the RJ Cosmetics was bullied after the death of her parents. A lot of whipped marks were found on her body when she was taken to the hospital after being drowned in her bathtub.
The hospital had refused to share the details. But our secret sources had informed us that she was in a critical condition.
Not only that, but a suspicious woman had entered her room last night and injected poison into her body. Though the hospital was quick and efficient in handling the case, the little girl is still in critical condition and needs the blessings of the public. Our sources had dug deeper and found the company was opened by another Tycoon Benard and Ryan Stone, father or Elenora Stone and he was the maximum shareholders of the company but now his shares were divided by his younger brother David and his partner Benard while the girl had nothing in her name.'' She was so immersed in reading that she did not notice when David stood up and walked to her with a gloomy look on his face.
He snatched the mobile from her hands and threw it on the ground with more force.
"It is your daughter's mistake." he growled in a cold voice. "If she had been silent enough, nothing would have happened. But she used the whip on Nora when she was told to stay low." he gritted his teeth. His nerves bulged making his wife gulp.
She might hold the power in normal conditions but even she could see how bad it was.
