Chapter 653 Ishara Got Kicked Out of the Company (Part 1)
Patrick's face went pale as Winnie's words hit home. His teeth chattered, unable to hide his irritation anymore. "Winnie, do you have any proof for what you're saying?" He snapped. "I respect Carlos so much. How can you slander me with just a few words? It's just a fake paternity test. Paul, don't believe her. You've seen her tricks. She wants to cause discord in the Blanchet family and destabilize the company! As far as I know, she hasn't even been close to Ishara. There's no way she could have gotten Ishara's hair for the test."
Ishara stood up, sobbing. "Grandpa, Grandma, she never got my hair, yet she presents a test to tarnish me. You have to clear my name!"
Nancy, who had always doted on Ishara but was also doubtful, said, "Ishara."
Winnie sneered. "I did get your hair. Ishara, think carefully. We met two months ago. I prepared much earlier than you expected."
'Two months ago?' Ishara quickly recalled. That was the only time she met Winnie, who had threatened her to marry Rock. Winnie must have taken her hair back then without her noticing!
"As for the paternity test, it's easy to handle! The truth can't be faked, and the fake can't be real. Since you deny the father-daughter relationship, how about let's have Mr. Blanchet personally take your hair on the spot for testing?"
Winnie crossed her arms, her eyes challenging Patrick. 'Do you think I brought Ishara here for no reason?'
At this point, not only Ishara but even Patrick turned pale.
Paul's heart was heavy, his anger on the verge of breaking. "Patrick, I want you to tell me personally that you didn't have an affair with Eleanor and that Ishara is not your daughter. Otherwise, I'll take both of your hair right now to clear Carlos's name!"
Patrick panicked. "Father."
"Eleanor, you know this best. Tell me, whose daughter is Ishara, Carlos's or Patrick's?"
Paul was completely enraged, feeling that the entire Blanchet family had been deceived by Eleanor.
Cold sweat kept breaking out on Eleanor's face. She glared venomously at Winnie, anxious to kill her with her eyes. But now, she could only protect Ishara behind her, not letting anyone get her hair.
Paul watched all this, seeing Eleanor and Patrick not daring to argue in the face of evidence. He was already shocked, slamming his hand on the table. "Outrageous! Eleanor, you seduced both of my sons! Patrick, tell me, were you instigated by Eleanor? Did you harm Carlos for Ishara?"
Patrick bit back, "I didn't. Father, mother. Carlos's accident was just an accident. The police investigate the case thoroughly. Winnie is framing me. Does she have any evidence? She doesn't. She's doing all this to get the Blanchet family company inheritance. Don't listen to her nonsense!"
"Paul!" At this moment, Lysander burst into the door, pointing at Patrick and shouting, "I have evidence! I can prove that Patrick and Eleanor are involved in Mr. Carlos Blanchet's shooting. On the day of the incident, Mr. Carlos Blanchet contacted me on his way back from the cemetery, intending to transfer all his shares to Winnie. I don't know if he sensed something, but just as I had the agreement ready and was waiting for him to return to the company to sign, he was shot on the road. This was clearly Patrick and Eleanor finding out and cruelly trying to kill him to seize the shares for Ishara!"
Patrick shot back, "This is your so-called evidence? Ridiculous. You're framing me based on mere speculation?"
"Whether it's framing or not, listen to me first," Lysander said, waving his hand. Several old shareholders, dismissed by Patrick, walked in with documents in hand.
Lysander sneered and spread the documents out. " The culprit they found wasn't the real perpetrator. Eleanor had her brother Thomas hire someone to kill Mr. Carlos Blanchet. And I've already found the person!"
He turned to Patrick. "As for your improper relationship with Eleanor, if you need evidence, I won't be polite. Mr. Powell, when you were dismissed by Patrick and went to confront him, what did you witness?"
Enrique, one of the dismissed shareholders, took out several photos and disdainfully threw them on the table. "The day after Patrick dismissed me, I went to his villa to seek justice, only to catch him and Eleanor flirting in the garden. I even heard Eleanor say, 'Ishara is your daughter. We need to shut Carlos up as soon as possible.'"
Paul took several steps back. Enrique was his old friend. He couldn't be lying.
Patrick's face turned ashen. "Mr. Powell, I dismissed you through normal procedures, and you're retaliating by fabricating these photos?"
"After seeing the evidence, you still deny it! You and Eleanor are having an affair. I really feel sorry for Carlos! If it weren't for Winnie finding me and having me hold onto the evidence until the right time, I would have exposed your affair in the company long ago!" Mr. Powell said angrily. He then turned to Paul. " Paul, I'm feel sorry for Carlos. He was nice to Patrick all his life, but Patrick killed Carlos for Eleanor, and had an illegitimate daughter with her. Now that Ishara's true identity is so disgraceful, shareholders absolutely cannot agree to her inheriting the Blanchet family. The Blanchet family may be a family business, but without Carlos, it wouldn't be what it is today. Since Ishara is not Carlos's daughter, she can't be allowed to take the company with Patrick! Paul, you need to see Patrick's true colors!"
Ishara listened to Enrique's opposition, feeling like she had fallen into an ice cellar. Her worst fear had come true. Her identity as an illegitimate daughter was exposed, and she could see the shocked looks from all the shareholders, who instantly changed their faces. They no longer recognized her as the heir!
"Patrick, do you have anything else to say? You really tried to kill your brother multiple times?" Paul couldn't take it anymore. If Paul had any doubts before, Lysander and Enrique stepping forward, both trusted and long-time associates of the company, confirmed it.
'When Carlos wanted to transfer his shares to Winnie before his accident, Eleanor had murderous intentions! Patrick, influenced by Eleanor, could very well have done it.'
After Enrique finished, other dismissed shareholders also stepped forward. "Paul, you haven't been in the company these days. You have no idea how Patrick has plundered it. All of us who fought alongside Carlos were driven out. Patrick restructured the company's personnel. Now he's stealing the company seal and Carlos's shares, all to rename the Blanchet family and give it to his illegitimate daughter Ishara. "We absolutely disagree with it!"
