My Weak Wife Is a Real Goddess novel Chapter 17

Chapter 17 

Lucille did not say anything. She walked straight over, picked up the papers from the table, and studied the contents carefully. 

The documents detailed clearly that she was to transfer 10% of her shares from Jules Group to Zoey Johnson without any conditions. 

Whereas the remaining 30% would be given unconditionally to Howard Jules. 

Lucille’s head was lowered as she read the documents, but she suddenly burst out into laughter. 

Did Howard think she was a fool? 

He was going to leave her with nothing, even the vampire isn’t as cruel as he is. 

“What are you laughing at?” Howard frowned unhappily. “I told you to sign it! What are you waiting for?” 

Lucille raised her eyebrows and sat down opposite him. Her chest was puffed out and her hands were crossed like a queen addressing her disciple. 

“If you want me to sign this, you need to give me a reason to do so.” 

Howard frowned impatiently. “What reason do you need? I am your father! You do whatever I say!” 

Lucille’s lips curled into a smile. “In your dreams.” 

“You…!” Howard was furious. He could only hold back his anger and say, “Samuel doesn’t like you, but we can’t call off the marriage between us and the Gilberts. Henceforth, Zoey needs to marry into their family. Give her 10% of your shares as her dowry, that way Zoey can at least marry into their family with her head held high.” Lucille was fuming to the brim, but she could only snicker. 

Not only did the mistress steal her fiancé, now she had to give her money for the dowry. 

How could such a disgusting father exist? 

Lucille was so angry that she threw her head back and laughed. She threw the papers onto the coffee table and said, “Do continue.” 

She wanted to see what else Howard could say. 

Howard flicked the cigarette ash and continued, “Zoey’s father sacrificed her life back then to save me. Our family owes them a life. Over the years, I have thought of her as my biological daughter. Of course, you should give part of your mother’s inheritance to her. That way, the Gilbert family won’t look down on her.” 

Biting her lip, Zoey said with tears in her eyes, “Dad…” 

Howard looked at her lovingly. “Silly child, why are you crying? You deserve it.” 

Lucille couldn’t help but laugh at this loving scene between father and daughter before her. 

She sneered and went straight to the point. “If you want to give her some inheritance, why don’t you give her some of yours? Why do I have to give her what my mother left me?” 

Could they be any more shameless? 

His face was even thicker than the Lord of The Rings trilogy. 

Howard got up angrily from his seat. “What do you mean by thinking about your shares? We are a family, and your sister is in a good position. What’s wrong with sharing some with her?” 

“If I say no, then what?” Lucille sneered. Her ‘generous’ attitude riled up the two men in her house. 

Charles stood up angrily. “Lucille! You better not cross the line!” 

After that, he turned to look at Zoey. “Zoey, don’t be sad. If she doesn’t give you the shares, I will.” 

Howard immediately frowned. “Bastard! How can you simply give your shares out? It must be Lucille who gives hers!” 

Lucille sneered. 

At the end of the day, all they wanted was to squeeze the rights away from the rightful owner. 

 

A cold-blooded and biased man like him doesn’t deserve to be a father! 

Lucille picked up the documents again and lowered her head to read it quietly. 

Howard thought this was a sign of agreement and immediately raised his head proudly. “Don’t worry. As long as you sign it, I’ll make sure you live a good life. When you get married, I’ll make sure to give you many expensive cars and houses!” 

Lucille sneered and threw the papers at Howard’s face. “In your dreams!” 

Howard didn’t expect that. The sharp edge of the paper sliced into his eyelid. 

“Dad!” Zoey stepped forward in a panic and held his hand with concern. “Are you okay?” 

Howard covered his eyes and grimaced in pain. 

He glared at Lucille angrily. “Guards! Catch this ungrateful daughter of mine!” 

If she refused to sign it, he would beat it out of her! 

Soon, a few bodyguards rushed in and surrounded Lucille. 

Seeing how the situation escalated, Madam Dahlia was so anxious that she picked up the phone to call the police. 

At this moment, a scream resonated from within the room. 

Madam Dahlia looked up in surprise and saw Lucille land a kick on the 1.85 meters tall guard. She turned around and grabbed another guards hand and with an elegant twist of her body, the bodyguard immediately fell to the ground with a wail. 

When the other bodyguards saw this, they immediately swarmed forward and surrounded Lucille. However, Lucille wasn’t intimidated. Her punches were agile, her power was overwhelming, and her posture was poised. In a short while, she knocked down all the bodyguards. 

Everyone in the room was stunned. 

They stared blankly at the valiant girl in front of them and forgot to breathe. 

At this moment, the girl that stood before them was the same one as before, but her aura had changed completely. Her cold and cruel eyes, the domineering spirit that hung in the air, and the powerful aura that suppressed all those around her. 

It was so cold and powerful that the rest of them couldn’t breathe. 

Howard opened his eyes wide in horror and stared at Lucille in disbelief. 

Was she really the timid and quiet little girl that he knew? 

Charles gasped as well. He felt a chill run down his spine. 

He had only people do all that in the movies. 

This was a top-level close-range combat skill that was on the verge of being extinct. It was said that there were no more than five people in the world who knew this martial art form. 

He had always wanted to learn it, but he couldn’t find a master. 

But when did Lucille learn it? 

She’s so good at it that she could teach others! 

Zoey finally came back to her senses from the shock and narrowed her eyes in a sinister way. 

She pinched her thigh hard and forced out two drops of tears. She rushed to Howard and said, “Dad! There’s a lot of blood in your eyes! Madam Dahlia! Go and call the doctor!” 

After that, she cried and knelt down in front of Lucille. “Lucille, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t be greedy and ask for your part of the shares. You can hit me and scold me all you want, but don’t hurt dad, okay?” 

Lucille watched her acting with a look of disdain. She didn’t even bat an eyelid. A doctor? Just for that small paper cut? 

Wouldn’t it have healed by the time the doctor arrived? 

Such drama queens. 

With a sneer, Lucife turned around and sat back down on the sofa. 

 

“Sorry for making things so hard for you. My signature is all you want right? Alright, here you go!” 

After that, she picked up the pen and signed her name at the bottom of the papers. 

It was smooth without any hesitation. 

They were stunned again. 

What was going on with Lucille? 

Charles was the first to react. He rushed over and snatched the papers from her. After looking at them carefully, he was immediately delighted. “She signed it! She really signed it!” 

Zoey was ecstatic as she gripped the edges of her shirt tightly. 

Great! 

She didn’t think that this fool would actually sign it! Then wasn’t Zoey now someone with millions of assets? Lucille’s lips curled into a cold smile as she looked at the happy trio in front of her. 

After a while, she suddenly said, “Ah! I almost forgot. Just a few hours ago, I sold my 40% of the shares. I don’t know if the papers I sign are void now.”
