Genius Kids' Scheme Claiming Daddy's Billionaire Empire novel Chapter 367

Chapter 367

Matthew paused, something clicking into place. “What are you talking about?”

This has to be her doing,” Jennifer snapped. “Or her boyfriend’s. The timing’s too perfect–right after she quits, my dad’s reputation gets trashed?

Matthew walked away without another word, leaving Jennifer trembling with fury.

The next morning, Matthew shuffled into the Hayes family breakfast room, head pounding with each step. His parents were already seated, watching the news.

“Breaking news,” the reporter announced. “Silver City police have confirmed that Dr. Martin Roberts has been formally charged with multiple counts of fraud and embezzlement, along with suspicious deaths at his hospitals.”

“This moved awfully fast,” his mother commented. “Martin doesn’t seem the type to leave obvious tracks.”

“We can’t touch this one,” his father said, setting down his coffee. “Roberts crossed a line.”

“What do you mean?” Matthew asked, wincing at his own voice.

His father glanced over. “I made some calls when this broke, thinking about helping. But this isn’t just a scandal–Haven Enterprise is involved.”

Matthew’s hangover seemed to vanish instantly. “Haven? Why would they care about Roberts?”

“Roberts threatened the wrong person.” His father’s expression darkened. “Word is, he went after someone Adam cares about.”

Everything fell into place. Roberts had threatened Irene after she quit. Adam had responded by systematically dismantling the entire Roberts family.

For her, Matthew realized. Adam did all this for Irene.

“The evidence is solid,” his father added. “Haven just made sure it all came to light at once.”

Matthew sank into a chair, reluctant admiration mixing with his jealousy. The swift, devastating response wasn’t just revenge–it was a message: Touch what’s mine, and I’ll destroy you completely.

Over at Emerald Garden, the family gathered around their own TV, watching the same story unfold.

“Unbelievable,” Brandon shook his head. “Profiting from patient deaths? How could he sleep at night?”

Wesley sipped his tea. “What goes around comes around. Eventually.

Irene frowned. “It all happened so quickly, though. From rumors to charges in just days?”

“Justice was overdue,” Brandon shrugged. “Those poor families have probably been fighting for years. Sometimes things just line up all at once.”

Irene nodded, but something about the timing nagged at her. She couldn’t help wondering if Adam had played a part in this.

That afternoon, as Irene adjusted the electrodes on Adam’s legs, she studied his face carefully,

Did you have something to do with what happened to the Roberts family?” she asked point–blank.

Adam’s expression stayed neutral, but his eyes softened. “I just gave the media what they already had access to. Roberts did the rest himself by cutting corners and risking lives.”

Irene kept working methodicall “Because he threatened me?”

No one threatens you without consequences,” Adam said simply, like he was commenting on the weather.
