No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 1302

After comforting her mother on the phone for a few minutes, Faye took a deep breath and called Horace.

"Where are we meeting?" she asked, suppressing her emotions. She had to find Horace and learn what he knew about her father.

Horace had worked at her father's company for a year; he must have known plenty about his private life.

On the other end, Horace sounded surprised by her promptness. He gave her the name of a restaurant near his place. "Seven o'clock tonight. See you there."

After hanging up, Faye sank back into her chair. Horace's information was probably true. She couldn't believe her father actually had an illegitimate son and was now willing to abandon his family for him.

Of course. In a family that had always favored sons over daughters, no amount of effort on her part would ever earn her father's approval.

Just then, her phone rang again. Seeing it was her mother, she quickly answered, "Hello? Mom."

"That bastard! Your father secretly moved a billion dollars into an overseas account!" her mother's furious voice screamed through the phone.

Faye's heart skipped a beat. What? One billion? An overseas account? Her father had secretly transferred that much money?

"Mom, are you sure you read that right?" Faye's voice trembled with shock.

"There's no mistake. As soon as your father left, I figured out the combination to his safe. The deposit slips were split across several accounts, totaling one billion dollars, tucked inside his passport!" Her mother's voice was a mix of tears and despair. "Faye, he's been planning to abandon us all along! He's going to take that billion and start a new life!"

A chill shot up from Faye's feet, leaving her limbs cold. Not only did her father have an illegitimate son, but he had also been secretly moving a massive fortune. This meant that even with a divorce, she and her mother would likely get very little. Her father had already prepared his escape route.
