Lisa exploded, "Chloe, have you no shame? We didn't ask you to change your last name, and now you think you're really one of us? Lettell you, I'm the only daughter of the Meadows family. The estate and assets are mine. There is not a single penny for you." Lisa's fury was clear, but Jacob silenced her.
When Jacob first discovered Chloe wasn't his blood, his initial plan was to leave the Meadows Corporation to Lisa. However, three years had passed, and he had seen Lisa's true colors. If the company fell into her hands, it would go bankrupt in no time.
He had to think of something else. Chloe, despite not being his biological daughter, was someone he had raised. She was loyal and incredibly talented. The company needed her now more than ever.
"Here's the deal," Jacob said, "I'll give you 5% of the company's stock. Agree to represent the company in Paris, and the shares will immediately be yours." He put on his best fatherly tone.

"I don't want the shares, and I'm not going to Paris," Chloe stated calmly.
Jacob panicked. Clenching his teeth, he made a bold offer, "Alright, you and Lisa each get 20% of the company's shares. If you represent us and win the competition, you'll also get the position of head of the design department. Deal?"
"Deal," Chloe agreed without Emoon. The om hesitation. The content is on E.com!
Lisa was stunned. "Dad, how can you do this? She's just an outsider, and you're willing to give her half of the Meadows family's estate? at her! She was practically Leliget
