Chapter 91
~Christopher’s POV~
I sat in my study, watching the disgusting videos of the Cooper family. I thought I was wrong that day, which meant I walked into Mark and his dad banging.
Fuck!
The thought of that makes me sick. How could they be fucking each other like that, as though they were not related? This is so fucking out of line, and I can’t really understand this family at all. I leaned back in my chair and tossed my iPad away. My screen displays a message.
My World: Family meeting at 2 p.m.
Strange, why would my little wife call a family meeting, and what exactly does she want to say? I mean, she is pregnant, even though my family doesn’t know yet, but when they see her today, they will know. I mean, her bump is now big. And God, did I mention how good she looks? She is the most beautiful woman on earth. I was afraid to sleep with her, but Camille would always jump on me and do me. I couldn’t allow her to do that anymore. I have just learned to be gentle with time. Camille loves sex, and that baby of ours is making her wild. And I can’t wait for us to carry our secondborn. I looked at the time, and I had just 30 minutes to get to the meeting before the lady boss scolded me. I shut down everything and walked out of my office, heading to our family’s house. When I arrived, everyone was seated except for Camille and Grandpa. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Grandpa arrived shortly after 5 minutes, and now we were just waiting for the person who called a family meeting. Everyone’s eyes were on me, as it was my wife who called the meeting, and we didn’t arrive together. I pulled out my phone from my pocket, trying to call my wife, but she walked in immediately before I could click the call button.
“Sorry, I’m late.” She said as she took her seat, and everyone was stunned, looking at her big bump. Fuck! Did I mention how proud I am? I looked at my mom; she looked so happy that Camille and I were finally a family. She used to show her concerns every time, even though she wouldn’t call. She would just send me a message reminding me that I was not getting any younger.
“I have a huge revelation, or rather a pressing matter, that I would like to share with the rest of the family.” She said, and my first brother’s spouse opened her mouth to say something, but Camille cut her off. “I’m not here for your silly games or whatever you want to say; you can say it after I’m done; before then, I’d like to speak without interruption.” I watched as the woman closed her mouth in disbelief. Camille was a queen, meant for a king like me.
“Recently, there have been activities by the Coopers showing interest in my husband and our family business. Some of you didn’t know this, but the Coopers were after us, and right now I have been distracting them so that we can sort this out as a family.” So it was Camille who did it, my cunning little wife. She continued, “I am going to beat around the bush because this started here at home. Someone brought the Coopers to this house, and they secured 6% of the family business, and the issue started when my husband took the business out of the family. Who approved them getting those shares?” Good question. I looked into this matter years ago but didn’t find anything. She continued, “This document right here states that the whole family approved those shares, but only one person did, and that person is right here sitting in this room with us. If you know you are the one, show yourself.” I can’t believe this, but who?
No one stood up. Camille scoffed and continued, “You have been driving a wedge between the family members; you slept with Carmen Cooper, aka Claudia, before anyone else, and you started plotting against the family.”
“What!” Everyone gasped.
“Yes, Claudia is Carmen Cooper; she is a daughter of the Cooper family. Someone was so eager to introduce the lifestyle the Coopers were living to the family and also take over the family business using the Coopers. “We’ve been focusing on the Coopers because we knew they were a threat, but the mastermind behind everything is right here with us. The real threat is here.”
“What the fuck are you talking about, Camille?” She is my wife, but she can’t talk like that to them.
“Shut up and let her talk; this seems interesting,” Grandpa commented.
“Father, when grandpa asked Chris to take over the family business, that idea didn’t sit well with you because you were his son and he selected his grandson to run the family business. That didn’t sit well with you. Why didn’t you tell grandpa you wanted to run the company?” My father shifted a bit on his chair, and Camille continued, “You sold 6% of the family business years ago because you knew that grandpa wasn’t willing to hand over the company to you, and you gave the shares to the Coopers. You signed off those shares and made it look like the whole family signed off. Why?”
“You are not a Grayston. You know nothing about this clan. So shut up!”
“Really, then why did you try to steal from the same clan that you claim I’m not from? If we were a family, why did you steal from your own family? You stole from your father and from your second son. You tried to rob your children of their future. You slept with Claudia and then she paraded her way into Joshua’s life, then Chris’s. You wanted one of them to marry her so that you can introduce such a lifestyle to the family while you steal from your so cold clan.”
“What is she talking about?” My mother finally asked,
“Father here has been sleeping with all the members of the Cooper family. He made a deal with them since their last born was not a Cooper but a Grayston; the deal was for them not to reveal this piece of information, and the 6% was what sealed the deal.”
“What!”
“So, since you brought them out, father here has been attempting to take over the companies in order to recoup his portion of the deal from the Coopers.”
“Father, what is she talking about?” I asked. My own father did this to me. No, there is no way.
“You were always my father’s favorite. Instead of him letting me run the company, he offered a 19-year- old person the post. How did you think I felt? It wasn’t for you to make children or anything; Mark and I sent Carmen to you so that you would look useless to your grandfather, but still, he valued you more than anyone. Even when you opened your own firm, you still had their highest shares, while I only had 3%.”
“You sent distraction my way. You ruined my life, and should I be okay with it?”
“It was just for my father to look my way, but the old man never did; instead, he offered Joshua the position. I couldn’t sit back and be a nobody; I had to take over the two companies. My father saw my children as worthy, not me, his son.”
I watched my mother struggling to breathe; she pulled out a gun and shot my father, and everyone gasped. “You have been sleeping with both men and women; did you also sleep with your own son?” My mom asked, and another woman spoke as she entered the room.
“Yes, he did.” We all turned our heads, looking at Mrs. Cooper as she stood before my mom. “At first, I felt sick; I suspected something was wrong with my family; the whole house smelled like sex.” I didn’t know my husband was sleeping with everyone, including his own children. I asked for a divorce when I found out, but he said I could sleep with his friend, who was your husband. I wanted to say no, but your husband liked the offer, and he started stripping me; that’s how I got pregnant, and I had no way out to expose this to the world without exposing myself too. I was forced to sleep with my own children, even
though I hated the idea. In my house, there is sex going on around every corner. My husband has now begun to use my last son to obtain shares from your family, which he did obtain, but someone bought the shares back because they were not brought securely in the first place.
A Year Later
It was a surprise to me that my grandfather knew everything; hence, he didn’t hand over the company to my father. The Coopers have been arrested for drug dealing and fraud. My father, too, has been arrested for fraud and rape. Camille gave birth to a beautiful baby girl that looked just like her mother, making Liam and me happy. We love our girls.
