Overflowing Hidden Feelings: This CEO Is Hard to Please!
Chapter 1225 - 1225 Clean break 8

Chapter 1225: Clean break 8 Chapter 1225: Clean break 8 Mia Garcia lifted her head, and even though she was looking at Patrick Taylor, her peripheral vision stayed on Eric Collins.

“Mom, you’ve really misunderstood me. I acted that way only to show my sincerity in wanting to stay with the Collins Family. I truly do want to stay,” she said, then turned to Eric Collins, “Dad, you have to believe me, I really want to stay in the Collins household, no matter what hardships I face, I’m willing to serve both of you.”

Serve?

What a fucking joke. She’s served her way into her own father-in-law’s bed, and she’s still thinking about staying? I’ve never seen a woman so shameless!

Eric Collins, watching Mia Garcia like this, naturally felt some turmoil inside.

But now.

He was in no position to ensure his own safety and still needed the help of the Reed Family and the Thomas Family to avoid losing too disgracefully.

And Patrick Taylor had already told him that since the child in Mia Garcia’s womb was gone, and Harry Collins had died because of her, she could never allow such a person in front of her eyes.

Therefore, Eric Collins had to make a choice.

For a man, this kind of decision doesn’t require too much hesitation; he knew which side to choose.

“Mia, don’t feel too bad. Your mom is right; leaving the Collins household will give you better options. Just do as your mom says,” Eric Collins made his stance clear.

He chose to stand on Patrick Taylor’s side.

Upon hearing this, Mia Garcia’s body shook violently once again.

“No… it’s not like that…” Mia Garcia cried, struggling to catch her breath.

Clara Brown, seeing this, lashed out angrily, “The Collins Family is really going too far, you’re trying to kill my daughter, not only did you cause my daughter to lose her child, but you also made it impossible for her to have children again. You’ve been cruel enough to do this and shamelessly made my daughter sign an agreement to leave with nothing, and even took her personal assets.”

“As man sows, so shall he reap. Aren’t you afraid of divine retribution doing this?”

The more Clara Brown spoke, the angrier she got, directly confronting Eric Collins, “Father-in-law, you’re a reasonable man, do you really think it’s okay to pressure my daughter like this? Give me a straight answer, are you really going to push us to this point?”

Eric Collins, upon hearing this, looked puzzled and said, “Taking Mia’s personal assets, how could that be possible? Whatever she has gained by joining the Collins family, we would never take it away. As for leaving the household with nothing, I am aware of that, Patrick Taylor has shown it to me, indeed there is Mia’s signature and fingerprint, but why she would agree to that, I truly don’t know.”

Eric Collins, of course, didn’t know any of this.

Regarding the matter of leaving the household with nothing, he could guess that Patrick Taylor had outmaneuvered Mia Garcia.

What’s done is done; it had gotten to this point, and he was powerless to change it.

At a time like this, to fight with Patrick Taylor was undoubtedly pushing himself towards a dead end.

In the midst of such an emergency in the company, Patrick Taylor actually outmaneuvered him, leaving him with no other options.

“Dad, I really didn’t agree to sign it, and my personal property is also gone. Now, in this household, I can only appeal to you for help. Please, Dad, remember how obedient and well-behaved I was when I joined the family, you must help me!” Mia Garcia pleaded desperately and pitifully.

“It’s impossible for anyone to have touched your personal assets. Just list out the items you had, and I will have the family check everything. If there’s a thief in the family, I will certainly help you find out,” Eric Collins offered what promises he could.

But to Mia Garcia, these promises sounded like nothing but empty words.
