Chapter 52 William and Fiona Were Kicked Out Together

So, here's the deal: Fiona got booted off the board. She saw it coming.

The Watsons pounced, snatching her ancient medical formula, stripping her of power, and swiping her $7 billion investment.

They threw her under the bus to save their own skins.

Fiona, totally wrecked, was bawling her eyes out. How did it get this bad? Why'd Eugene and Jasmine stab her in the back?

Enraged, she marched home to confront Eugene. But Eugene was nowhere to be found. Instead, she encountered Gordon and the gang, all grinning like they had hit the jackpot.

Gordon smirked, "Fiona, don't blame my folks. Sacrificing you to save the Watsons is your duty. That's what being a Watson is all about."

But they also wanted to boot William out.

"Fiona, you should kick William to the curb too. We can barely save ourselves, let alone take care of him," Megan chimed in.

"No way, William's my godson; he's staying with me," Fiona shot back, standing her ground.

Ever since William got the boot last time, she swore it wouldn't happen again.

"Then you should leave too. Either he goes, or you both do. Your call." The Watsons weren't budging.

When Fiona had the power and the ancient formula, they wouldn't dare treat her like this. But now, they saw their chance to get rid of William for good.

"Fiona, all your stuff is frozen. This Azure Villas is in your name too. Someone's coming to take it soon."

"If you don't kick William out, you'll be homeless."

With a bitter laugh, Fiona realized that the Watsons were gunning for her hard. They had stripped her of her company rights and the ancient formula, and now they also wanted William out of the picture.

Just as the Watsons left, more people showed up. Bank staff came to seize her properties and cars.

The staff declared, "Fiona, Azure Villas is mortgaged. You have one hour to leave. All your properties and cars are mortgaged. They're not yours anymore."

Now Fiona was really homeless.

She knew Eugene and Jasmine's absence meant they were in on this. They were forcing her to ditch William. Otherwise, they'd push her to the edge.

Soon, every hotel and inn in Starlight City would probably ban her and William.

And no one she knew would take her in. She could only cave and agree to the Watsons' demand to kick William out.

But she wouldn't! Even if she had nowhere to go, she wouldn't ditch William!

Fiona looked at William, feeling guilty. "William, I'm sorry you're stuck with me. I'm useless. I don't even have a place to stay."

But Fiona was determined. "William, just hang tight for one night. I'll figure something out," she said.

William grinned, "Who said we don't have a place? I'll get you somewhere better. Come on."

"What?" Fiona stared at William, stunned.

William said, "Alright, the car's here. We'll talk on the way."

Just then, a nanny car pulled up.

Still confused, Fiona followed William into the car. She had no clue where William was taking her.

The car was headed straight for Dragon Hill, with Serenade Villa as its destination.
