Chapter 43



43 Making a Move

This was an undisguised threat. It meant that if Caroline did not hand over the money, Balor would take her life and directly become her heir to inherit her fortune.

“Of course you can, Mr. Balor.” Caroline walked down the stairs step by step. She was so relaxed as if the person who was being threatened wasn’t her.

“As I said earlier, I can accept whatever means you use. However, whether you can achieve your goal is another matter.”

“What do you mean by that?” Balor’s face twitched. Seeing Caroline approach him step by step, he recalled the scene of Caroline kicking him from the table to the ground yesterday. Instantly, he felt the pain in his waist intensify.

He cowered behind the bodyguard in fear. “I’m not alone today. If you want to use the same trick again, you might as well think twice about yourself.”

Caroline used her hands to break the handrail and broke off a wooden stick that was as thick as Balor’s arm. “Thank you for your reminder, but I’ve already thought about it. I think I have a good chance of winning.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Caroline’s eyes changed. She was filled with killing intent. She raised her hand and the wooden stick in her hand sent the bodyguard standing at the front flying. He landed heavily at Kelly’s feet.

“Ah! Ah! Kelly screamed.

“What are you guys doing? Hurry up and arrest her!” Balor roared.

However, Caroline never bragged. If she said that she had considered it, she really did.

Under Balor and Kelly’s disbelief, Caroline seemed to be performing magic. In less than half a minute, she had beaten up the four to five bodyguards that they had brought with them. They were all lying on the ground, unable to move.

“You… What did you do?” Kelly saw Caroline holding the wooden stick and shifted her gaze to her. She was so scared that she could not stand steadily and fell to the ground.

As for Balor, his situation was only slightly better than hers. He only fell to the ground the moment Caroline raised the wooden stick.

Caroline held onto the wooden stick and squatted down to look at them. “Do you know why I told you not to waste your time?” As the two of them looked on in horror, Caroline directly placed a thunderbolt in their ears. “Because I have already donated all my money.”

“Are you crazy?! Ah!” Balor cried out in shock, his face filled with madness from being overly stimulated. “40% of the Lambert Corporation’s shares. Do you know how much that is worth?”

She had actually donated the money just like that!

Caroline nodded. “Of course I know. After all, I signed it myself. Whether it’s selling the shares or donating the money, no one knows their value better than me.”

“After all, as you said, I’m just a weak teenager. With so much money, wouldn’t it be dangerous if I accidentally attracted some wolves, tigers, and leopards?”

Caroline thought for a long time about where she should go with the money. In the end, she decided to give it to a professional trust company and set up a charity foundation named after the Lamberts. This way, she could keep Lambert’s surname, and the money would be spent well.

However, how could Balor accept Caroline’s actions? He had worked diligently his entire life, swallowing his anger and suffering for so many years, all for the sake of completely taking over the Lambert family and taking all of their assets.

In the end, Caroline had wasted half of his life’s effort!

The furious Balor raised his hand and wanted to slap her to vent the hatred in his heart. However, how could Caroline let him have his way?

She waved the wooden stick and swung it. Balor only heard a clear sound coming from his arm, and he was sent flying. Then, he felt an intense pain. “Ah, my arm!”

Caroline could not be bothered to look at Balor, who was writhing on the ground like a fat maggot. She turned to look at Kelly and smiled murderously. “Why? do you want to point fingers at me too?”

“Argh! You’re killing people!” Kelly was frightened by her, and her mental defense immediately collapsed. Screaming, she ran out of the apartment and ran into Austin and his mother, who were rushing over.
