The news of Perla taking over the Stafford Group instantly became a trending topic.
No one would have thought that the seemingly docile and pleasant Perla would suddenly become the chairman of the Stafford Group. Cohen was forced to leave the position when he was in his prime.
Perla received mixed opinions.
The most popular comment was that regardless of what had happened, Perla was indeed outstanding.
This was also how the public saw Kylie.
Meanwhile, Cohen now had no real power in the Stafford Group and had become a big joke in the
business world.
This time, Cohen could not swallow his anger.
Of course, it wasn’t just Cohen. Nadia and Mila were also furious.
Cohen and Samuel went back to the Stafford’s house.
Nadia was so angry that her blood pressure was about to soar. She could not help but roar, “I have been so kind to Perla. She’s such an ingrate. She actually did so many things behind our backs. I really want to slap her!”
As she spoke, she looked at Mila angrily. “It’s all your fault. What did you teach that bitch? She’s scheming against us.”
“Mom, I don’t know how Perla became like this. You know that she’s usually very obedient…” Mila looked aggrieved. She was the best at using this look to get people to pity her.
“It’s annoying to see you whiny all day. Did Perla learn it from you? She looks innocent and harmless, but she is evil by nature,” Nadia scolded angrily.
“I’m not. I’m doing this for this family. Back then, to give birth to a son for the Stafford family, I disregarded my health and almost died in the delivery bed. Nadia, have you forgotten all that?” Mila’s eyes were filled with tears.
Nadia wanted to say something, but Cohen stopped her.
“Enough!” Cohen roared. “Do you think I’m not annoyed enough? You two fight all day long. You two are going to tear this family apart!”
When Cohen spoke, no one dared to speak.
After a long time, Nadia could not help but ask, “Cohen, what do you think we should do now? Are we just going to let Perla continue to be so smug? I don’t think I can do that.”
Cohen’s expression was extremely cold.
He could not take it lying down after being schemed against by Perla.

“Perla has 1% more shares than us. Can’t we spend some money and buy more?” Nadia asked again.

“I’ve already asked the other board members about 9% of the shares. No matter how much we offer, they won’t sell any.” Cohen said ruthlessly. “Those people hold original shares, which are related to two or three generations of their families. They won’t sell those shares. They don’t lack money. They keep the shares for some kind of nostalgia.”
Nadia’s expression darkened even more. She suddenly thought of something and asked, “Didn’t you give Kylie 10% of the shares back then?”
“Speaking of which, I’m so angry!” Cohen finally
Could not hold back his emotions anymore. He no longer had any respect for Nadia “If your son hadn’t hit Kylie back then, would the 10% shares have been taken.
away by Kylie so quickly?”
“I…” Nadia wanted to explain. She did not expect to be scolded by her son.
In the past, Nadia had the final say in this house.
“Let’s not talk about this. What are you thinking? You belittled and mocked Kylie in front of so many media outlets. You said that the Stafford family would never ask for her help. It’s your fault that I’m cornered! You are much older than me. I thought you were wise and knew your place in the family!”, Cohen snarled.
He placed all the blame on Nadia.
“You, you said those words to me! Cohen, I’m your mother. Aren’t you afraid of being punished for this attitude?” Nadia’s face turned pale.
“If you weren’t my mother, I would have kicked you out of the Stafford family long ago. I’ve let you enjoy life in the Stafford family for so many years, but you don’t know what’s good for you.” Cohen became angrier as he spoke.
When he thought about how many people were laughing at him now, he was even angrier.
After throwing a tantrum at Nadia, Cohen suddenly stood up from the sofa and kicked the coffee table hard, knocking the cups to the ground with a loud, sharp sound.
After venting, Cohen left and went upstairs.
Nadia was so angry that her eyes turned red. She had never been treated like this in her entire life.
Nadia raised Cohen single-handedly. She never expected that he would scold her like this one day.
“Grandma, don’t blame my father for criticizing you. You are indeed unreasonable,” Samuel said and turned to leave.
Nadia was so angry that she stomped her foot. She had always doted on Samuel and agreed to everything he asked for, but now he was blaming her.
“You p
guys all defy me, bastards!” Nadia was trembling with rage, while Mila felt extremely happy.
All these years, under Nadia’s oppression, Mila had never been herself. In fact, after knowing that Perla had taken away the Stafford Group’s management rights, she understood why Perla did this. Mila was

Perla’s mother, so Mila knew too well what Perla was thinking. Perla wanted to stand out and make everyone respect and listen to her.
However, on the surface, Mila pretended to be kind and said some comforting words to Nadia. “Actually, Nadia, Kylie might help us.”
Nadia looked at Mila. “What do you mean?”
“Kylie is still part of the Stafford family. It’s useless for her to take 10% of the shares. Wouldn’t it be better to exchange it for money?” Mila suggested. “We just need to offer her a face-saving way out of this. Back then, you said in front of the media that the Stafford family had cut ties with Kylie. Now, you should take back your words and say in front of the media that you were just angry. Later, you will treat Kylie better and ask her to sell the shares to us.”
“Mila, are you trying to force me into a dead end? I’m Nadia. If I take back what I said, it will be a slap in the face for me.” Nadia was extremely angry.
“But there’s nothing we can do now. You can see Perla’s determination. None of us can convince Perla. As her mother, I want to teach her a lesson, but I’m too weak to do it. The only thing I can do now is for you to put aside your pride and beg Kylie,” Mila urged.
“I won’t go. I won’t beg Kylie even if I die!” Nadia would never allow herself to do such a lowly thing.
“Then, we can only let the Stafford Group fall into Perla’s hands,” Mila pretended to sigh helplessly.
She stood up and wanted to leave.
“Wait.” Nadia gritted her teeth. She knew that she was the one who had caused the problem. “I’ll call Kylie.”
“Kylie will not pick up the call. If you really want her help, I suggest you meet Kylie directly. It would be better to show more sincerity,” Mila said kindly.
