The True Lady Strikes Back novel (Cecilia and Christopher)

Chapter 8

Chapter 8 

Cecilia didn’t bother to continue acting when she finally talked about the matter of her disowning the Yancey family. She no longer embarrassed Juliana as well. 

Besides, there was plenty of time for that in the future. 

Cecelia said, “I’m happy to leave the Yancey family, but you took my blood for three years and want me to leave without receiving a penny!” 

Scoffing at the Yancey family’s wealth was different from preventing their bankruptcy. 

Jonathan snorted coldly and replied, “See, I’m right. She deliberately refused to transfuse blood to Julia because she wanted money!” 

Jayden added, “It’s disgusting to pretend that you’re returning the money to Dad!” 

Cecilia ignored their sarcasm and said with a smile, “I don’t care if you all want to be misers. But soon, everyone will know how you tricked your biological daughter into donating blood to your adoptive daughter.” 

It was said that even wild beasts looked after their young, yet the Yancey family would kick their flesh and blood to the curb without blinking an eye. 

Naturally, the Yancey family did not want this matter to be exposed. 

Gordon asked Cecilia coldly, “How much money do you want?” 

“Juliana’s life is so valuable, so naturally I can’t take too little. Otherwise, it’s not befitting her status at all. I reckon 20 million dollars a year would suffice.” 

Hearing this, Juliana was shocked. 

“How dare Cecilia say that? Does she know how much 60

million dollars is worth?” wondered Juliana. 

Gordon was so shocked that his voice then rose by several octaves. “Are you crazy?” 

Although the Yancey family had several billion dollars in assets and could easily fork out 60 million dollars, he wasn’t about to give it to Cecelia so easily. 

Cecilia put her hand behind her ear and angled it toward Gordon. 

“What? Are you saying that Juliana isn’t worth this price?” she asked. 

“Don’t try to change the subject. It is you who are too greedy, and now you want to make excessive demands!” retorted Gordon. 

“Since you’re not up for a negotiation, I don’t want the money either. Just let Juliana pay me back in blood. That’s three years‘ worth of transfusions, so how about it?” 

Sophia retorted anxiously, “How can Julia do that? She’s still sick. Her blood is too precious!” 

“If you don’t pay up or pay me back in blood, I can only disclose the truth,” declared Cecilia. 

After saying that, Cecilia picked up her phone and sent everyone the article she had written. 

“Have a look. If the details are untrue, you’re welcome to call the police and report me for libel.” 

The article was short and concise, and every sentence spoke the truth. 

Gordon took a step back and said, “Cecilia, you have indeed suffered in the past three years. I’ll give you 20 million dollars.” 

“Mr. Yancey, do you think this is a farmer’s market where you can bargain? You owe 60 million dollars and not a penny less!” 

Sophia looked at Cecilia’s greedy face and agreed, even as she

clenched her jaw in displeasure. 

“Fine, 60 million dollars it is. From now on, the Yancey family has nothing to do with you. Even if you need to beg for food, don’t come to our house!” 

Cecilia agreed affably. “Deal!” 

After saying that, she reminded them, “By the way, don’t give me the money. Please donate this money to a charity 

foundation anonymously.” 

Everyone in the Yancey family was stunned by her words and gaped at Cecilia in disbelief. 

She was giving up on 60 million dollars! 

That sum of money is enough for her to live a worry–free life. How could she donate it? Was she crazy?
