?Chapter 1655:


    Carol answered coolly, “If he’s really that loyal, why do you think he was so desperate to pay us off?”


    Both Brad and Ethan fell silent, left with noeback.


    “Let’s not forget, Dani runs the world’srgest intelligencework. Do you honestly believe Josh’s little secrets could stay hidden from her?” Carol continued, her voice sharp. “The whole ‘devoted husband’ thing? Please. He has six daughters from his mistress.”


    The truth hit the McCoy brothers like a tidal wave.


    “So… you were actually nning to blow up this scandal online?” Carol nodded.


    “Now that Josh paid up, you’re going to keep this all under wraps?”


    A faint smile yed on Carol’s lips as she crossed her arms. “Hamilton, do you really think Dani would just let it go? Secrets never stay buried forever. All Dani promised was not to leak the story to the media, but she never said a word about keeping quiet. In fact, she already told Josh’s wife everything this morning and lined up the best legal team to handle her.”


    Hamilton took a shaky breath. “Then his wife’s going to get half his assets, isn’t she?”


    Carol shook her head. “That’s not all. Dani’s already made a deal with her. She’ll help Josh’s wife take over as head of McCoy Group. Once she’s got all the shares, she’ll sell them to us for fair value. Cedric will be the new leader and majority shareholder. And you three? The shares you hold in McCoy Group are pocket change. You all thought Dani was naive, but she’s been ten steps ahead from the start. This was never about revenge—it was about making sure you had no choice but to follow her lead. She’s nearly finished tying up loose ends. With her pregnancy getting further along, she’s got better things to do than keep sparring with you. Still, she’ll keep her promise about those shares—you’ll get what you were told. She never cared about those crumbs anyway.”


    Carol’s gaze turned icy as she looked each of them in the eye. “You owe Dani an apology. For years, you left her motherless, andter, someone made her lose a child. That’s not something she’ll ever forget. This score must be settled!”

    Carol nced at the color-drained expressions of the men before her and let out a dismissive chuckle, her lips curling into a smug grin. “Everyone must take responsibility for their actions. Josh does, and so do you. There’s no escaping fate.”


    With that, Carol shed a frosty grin and walked away.


    The remaining trio stood frozen, their eyes fixed on the bank card clenched in Ethan’s hand. The sight of it sent a wave of difort through them, leaving them paralyzed.


    When Dani returned from her lunch, she found the McCoy brothers still rooted in ce at her doorway, looking as though they had seen a ghost. The scene was bothughable and pitiful.


    Ignoring thempletely, she walked past and straight into her office.


    Momentster, the trio noticed a familiar figure—Josh’s wife. Dressed in a charcoal ensemble and a matching face cover, she moved past the McCoy brothers as though they were invisible.


    “Ms. Harper, can I divorce Josh now?” Victoria McCoy’s voice was devoid of hope, her face gaunt and tired. “Another minute around him feels unbearable. Just thinking about him makes my skin crawl!”


    Dani took in the weariness in Victoria’s eyes before responding withposed calm, “Is this decision final?”
