The Rise Of Nathalia Carter Chapter 851
Advertisement
The shareholders suddenly changed their faces and looked at McCoy in shock.
How could he know the company was purchased? They wondered and even Parker didn't know it.
"What? Am I wrong?"
The wound on McCoy's neck hadn't healed yet. So he couldn't move well. But his eyes showed his majesty.
"Well, Mr. Watts…"
The shareholders wiped the sweat on their forehead. Everyone would be nervous when they couldn't hide their secrets anymore.
"I know everything. You sold the company, but now you are pretending nothing happened. It must be Drake's order, isn't it?" said McCoy calmly. He didn't sound angry at all, as if it was none of his business.
The shareholders just stayed there. They didn't expect that McCoy knew more than they thought.
For so many years, they only heard of this adopted little son of the Watts family. Rachel had heart disease and had given it to Ivy, so she didn't have more kids.
McCoy's parents were members of the leading Watts family but later died in a car accident twenty years ago, leaving him alone in this world.
The accident not only took away his parents but also his face, making him disfigured. Rachel didn't drive this poor kid out because he was not a threat to them. But since then, his treatment was completely different from before.
People familiar with the Watts family members all knew that the parents didn't like this adopted kid. After his compulsory education, he had been staying in the backyard and not going anywhere else.
Because of his disfigured face and eccentric character, Rachel thought it would shame her family, so she didn't want him to go out.
When he was about to grow to eighteen, Rachel couldn't stand him anymore because somehow, he always happened to appear when they had a visitor. The visitor was usually frightened by his ugly face, taking him as a ghost.

Finally, Rachel talked to Parker. They decided that they would drive McCoy out of the house when he was eighteen. Then they wouldn't see him.
But on his eighteenth birthday, a lawyer came for a visit before they asked him to leave.
From the lawyer, Parker learned about the tremendous legacy left by McCoy's parents to McCoy. Parker changed his mind. If he could get the fortune, he could make up for the loss of his company.
Finally, McCoy kept staying at the Watts house. However, no one knew where the fortune was except for him. So, no one could reach for the wealth except for him.
With the hope of getting the money from McCoy someday, Parker kept him at his house.
But things changed. Angelo broke the peace of the Watts family, and problems kept coming to the Watts group.
In the end, Parker made a bet that he had to guarantee the well-being of Rachel and Ivy, no matter if he succeeded or not.
Now it proved that he was right. He went to prison, but Rachel and Ivy still lived a life as before.
All these were because of the man in front of him, McCoy!
McCoy knew about the purchase of the Watts group. And he also knew that the acquirer was Drake. He even knew that Drake asked the shareholders to behave as usual at the Watts group.
Should these things be known by a man who just had compulsory education?
Of course, the answer was no.
If a man didn't go out for decades, he might be out of touch with society. How could he know everything?
But he didn't seem to care about all these as if he could give it up at any time.
"If you don't speak, then I will." McCoy looked down and rolled the ring on his finger.

"Ivy will take over the company later. You can keep acting like before. If she discovers anything, I will reveal what you had done twenty years ago ahead of Drake," said McCoy calmly. But he looked quite oppressive.
The shareholders looked at each, thinking that they had underestimated McCoy.
They had been threatened by Drake just now. Now they were threatened by McCoy. But they were surprised that the two asked them to do the same thing.
What was that? Why did they hide it from Ivy and Rachel rather than telling them directly?
Finally, the shareholders left with their heads hung low, totally different from the look when they came.
When they walked to the door, they saw Angelo standing there, looking quite serious.
They had no touch with Angelo but knew "him" well. After all, "he" had a twin sister, who just won an award. Now, her posts were all over the streets.
Angelo was standing at the door, neat short hair, decent suite, expressionless. She was kind of like Drake. No wonder they were brothers.
Even though Angelo was not a kid of the Thorne, he behaved like Drake after spending so much time with him.
"What are you doing here, Mr. Angelo?" a man greeted her.
Angelo looked at him and said unhappily, "I'm Watts from the leading family. Can't I come here?"
"No. I didn't mean that…" The man got nervous, worrying that Angelo would ruin his career. After all, Drake cared about Angelo most. Everyone knew that.
Angelo ignored him and went into the house. These men were then relieved and left at once.
As soon as Angelo entered the house, she saw a middle-aged man came over.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Angelo. Mr. McCoy had gone to take a rest. Please come when you have an appointment with him," said the man respectfully. But he was waiting for Angelo to leave.
Angelo had never met this man at the house before. Except for him, she didn't know anyone here because they were all new.
Angelo sneered. McCoy did cover himself more deeply than her since he could do that.
She didn't know he had such great capacity even though she had known him for more than two decades in her previous life.
"Well, wake him up. I don't think there's a big problem with him since he only spent one day at the hospital."
With that, Angelo sat casually on the sofa, looking not about to leave.
The man hesitated, "Well…."
At this point, Angelo saw McCoy coming out of his room.
"Go ahead and do your job. You don't need to stop, Angelo. He can come here whenever he wants," said McCoy to the man. His voice echoed in the living room.

Journey West 5000

Unstable and weakened, will he be more hindrance than help? Can he become the warrior he once was?A Monk and a Monkey journey across a world...... where the remnants of technology are seen as magic, while pockets of humanity strive to drag themselves out of ignorance.... where the descendants of animal-human hybrids, once created as instruments of war, now seek to dominate the world as demons.... where beings who call themselves Immortals and Gods preoccupy themselves with selfish pastimes, ignoring everything else. Among other things, a story about growth, grit, and being better than the person you were yesterday. Here's my rambling on why I'm writing Journey West 5000. Journey West 5000 is my crazy ambitious writing project to adapt a classic epic called "Journey to the West" for a global, modern audience. It's a sci-fi story disguised as fantasy, and has some road trip + monster of the week elements (as does the original Journey to the West). No system, definitely no harem, gradual power progression. Hmm, what else can I put here so potential readers know what to expect? My writing style for now is mostly "show don't tell", because I believe that readers don't need to have everything pointed out to them, and that they should be allowed to make up their own minds about characters based on the actions of those characters. I'm also trying to be less long-winded (a weakness pointed out by some friends) in order to write according to something Neil Gaiman said, which is to write as though I'm the one who has to pay for every word, not the reader. This will bring down my chapter word counts, and might drive away potential readers, but I believe there's value in learning to compress and be concise. All chapters posted here will have been edited. Constructive criticism, comments, and feedback would be very much welcome and appreciated. Please, please help point out any typos or grammatical mistakes, I'm striving to minimize those as much as possible. Above all, I hope you enjoy my story.
