The Billionaire Family Who Kept Me For Luck And Learned To Fear Me Chapter 07

Conrad ignored Nolan and addressed me instead. 

“Everyone who hurt you brought this on themselves.” 

You don’t have to forgive them. Let this teach them a lesson 

and serve as a warning to every Whitmore.” 

“They’ve already paid for what they did. Their actions won’t 

bring down the rest of the family, will they?” 

There it was. 

Conrad cared more about preserving his fortune and status 

than whether his own relatives lived or died. 

Unfortunately for him, that fortune was about to disappear. 

I smiled. 

“The market just opened. You should check the Whitmore 

Holdings share price.” 

At Conrad’s signal, Elliot checked his phone. 

The color drained from his face. 

“Mr. Whitmore, Whitmore Holdings stock…” 

He didn’t dare finish the sentence, Conrad snatched the phone from him. After staring at the 

screen for several seconds, he turned to me. 

“Aurelia, under our pact, you can’t stand by and let this family go bankrupt!” 

With Nora’s help, I stood. 

“The pact is gone.” 

Conrad’s breath caught. He immediately turned his right palm upward. 

The mark of our pact had vanished from his palm. 

How? It was supposed to last forever. I never broke it. You 

had no right to end it!” 

“You’re right. You didn’t break it.” 

Then how could you end it on your own?” 

Our pact depended on my gift. It brought you luck and kept 

wealth flowing into the Whitmore family.” 

I paused. 

‘But the gift is gone now.” 

“I can’t help you or the Whitmores anymore.” 

“I’m just an ordinary person now.” 

I had spent three years building toward this day. 

First, I let Conrad enjoy the fortune I brought him until he 

lowered his guard. Then I made sure the rest of the family 

discovered that hurting me seemed to pay. 

Each time they attacked, I deliberately rewarded them. 

The money only made them hurt me worse.

My gift was meant to draw wealth in, never pay it out. Every 

time I forced it to produce a windfall after they hurt me, I 

destroyed another piece of the gift itself. 

knew the Whitmores would never leave Mara and me alone while I still had value. 

Only when I had nothing left to give would they finally leave us alone. 

Conrad’s cane slipped from his hand, hit the floor, and snapped in two. 

Aurelia Whitmore!” 

He glared at me. 

“You betrayed me! Aren’t you afraid I’ll Mara?” 

go after you and 

I shook my head. 

The Whitmores can barely save themselves. Do you really 

think you’ll have time to come after us?” 

What are you talking about?” 

I glanced at Vivian, and Adrian, who were still kneeling on the floor. 

“Ask them.” 

The moment my gift disappeared, every windfall they had 

gained by hurting me vanished with it. 

Conrad turned on them. 

“Talk.” 

Vivian couldn’t meet his eyes. 

I negotiated three deals in the Whitmore name. When 

Aurelia’s luck doubled the projected profits, I increased my investment twentyfold.” 

“I wanted to surprise you, but I had no idea we’d lose this much…” 

“How much?” 

Vivian trembled. 

“Thirty million dollars.” 

Conrad drew a slow breath before facing Adrian. 

And you?” 

Adrian kept his head down. 

“I put every cent I had into the Harrington deal. I even took 

the valuables from your safe, sold them, and invested that 

money too.” 

‘It totaled a hundred and fifty million dollars: The deal 

collapsed, and now they say we’re on the hook for ten times that. That’s…” 

One and a half billion dollars. 

He couldn’t force the number out. 

Conrad kicked him in the chest. 

“Were you trying to bankrupt this family?” 

Elliot added carefully, “Mr. Whitmore, Victor and Helen lost 

quite a bit too. Early estimates put it at another fifty million.” 

Conrad’s eyes rolled back, and he collapsed.
