“Help you? Do you deserve my sister’s forgiveness?”
Mark looked up, a glimmer of cunning still in his eyes:
“Alex, I admit I did wrong, but Clara really has problems.“”
“Those drugs were prescribed by a doctor to control her emotions, otherwise she’d hurt
herself.”
“As for the company matters, that was the board’s decision. I was just executing it.”
“Look, I’m a victim too. I married a mentally ill wife and lived in fear every day.”
I scoffed again:
“You have the nerve to say that? My sister is like this all because of you!”
“And was my sister being chained next to a doghouse also a doctor’s suggestion?”
Mark was speechless, then quickly tried to argue:
“That was… that was in a fit of rage. I apologize to you.”
“But you should know, this isn’t all my fault. Victoria and the directors also share
responsibility.”
“If you let me go, I can cooperate to testify against them, and I can return all the assets I
transferred…”
I cut him off:
“No need. I’ll get those assets back myself.”
“As for testifying, we already have enough evidence; we don’t need your cooperation.”
A flicker of fear crossed Mark’s eyes, but he quickly regained his composure:

“Alex Sterling, you can’t do this! I’m your brother–in–law after all!”
“I know a lot of inside information about Titan Enterprises. If I reveal it in court, it won’t be good for you either!”
“Besides, with Clara in this state, who would want her now? You might as well let me go; I can take care of her…”
I slammed my fist on the table, cutting him off:
“Take care? You call that taking care of her?”
“Dare to mention my sister’s name again, and I’ll make your life a living hell!”
Mark was startled by my intensity, but soon grew defiant again:
“Alex Sterling, who do you think you are? Just because you have some money?”
“Let me tell you, you’ll never find my overseas accounts! Even if you send me to prison, I’ll
still have money to spend when I get out!”
I smiled, a genuine smile:
“Do you think I’ll have no way to deal with you once you’re out?”
“Even if you have money, will you have a life to spend it?”
“Mark, you overestimate yourself.”
“You’re just a dog my sister picked up, yet you showed no gratitude and bit your owner.”
“As for those overseas accounts you mentioned, they were frozen a week ago.”
“Every penny you transferred, I will recover, and then I will demand it back tenfold.“”
“The law will give you the punishment you deserve. I won’t interfere. But there’s one thing you need to remember: you hurt my sister, and I will personally settle that score with you.”
Mark’s face turned ashen, then distorted into a ferocious expression:
