StarNovelWife 122 Chapter 122 At the thought of that, she let out a chuckle. Charles held his teacup in his hand as he raised an eyebrow at the sight of Noelle laughing. "What's so funny?" Stunned, Noelle bit down on her lip as she thought about how she should explain the situation to him. In the end, though, she chose to shake her head and say, "It's nothing!" After all, she could not tell him she was thanking the stars she had not been born in March, could she? Charles smiled and poured Noelle another cup of tea as he said, "Since your grandfather has given you a portion of the shares, you should keep hold of it without any worries. I'm sure you know what Xavier and Joseph are plotting!" As Charles changed the subject, Noelle becserious as well as she nodded. “I'm sure Grandpa has his reasons for doing so. I just hope things aren't as complicated as they seem.“, "Your grandfather is the founder of City Ring Corp, and he built your family's fortune up from the ground, which is why City Ring Corp is so important to him. Joshua is not related to the Shaw family by blood because your grandfather adopted him. You and Winter are the only children he has, which means City Ring Corp will belong to the both of you in the future," Charles said. "Winter holds fifteen percent of the shares right now, but she's not well-versed in doing business and is working in the entertainment industry. If she marries Xavier later on, do you want to guess where ownership of those shares will end up?" Noelle smiled a bitter smile. "I know. It's also why Xavier... decided to start dating Winter behind my back. I've known about this for a long time. My dad probably knows I'm not dumb, which is why..." "Yes, you aren't dumb. I'm even thinking of using you to earn squick cash from the York family," Charles said. However, when he noticed Noelle's face going pale, he frowned and hurriedly added, "Sorry, I..." "It's nothing. I know you're being honest," Noelle said as she forced her lips upward into a smile. However, it was not a pleasant smile. "To be honest, City Ring Corp is no longer as glamorous as it used to be, and my father... I never expected him to do what he did. I always thought my mother was the one who played favorites because my sister has always been the charming one." "Your grandfather is getting on in age now, and your father's the one making decisions for City Ring Corp.I'm pretty sure he's had his eye on the shares under your grandfather's nfor stnow. Otherwise, he would not have been so against your grandfather giving them to you." Charles added, “You're a smart kid. If the shares belonged to you, there's no way you would transfer ownership over to them." "That's right," Noelle said as she smiled sadly. "I'm not the smart one. You are." She was +15 BONUS stunned. She did not expect an outsider like him to see through her family's dynamics sol easily.
"If you don't want these shares, I have another plan!" "What?" Noelle asked as she looked up.
"Give them to Joshua!"
Noelle was stunned. "Are you saying that I should get in touch with my uncle and transfer ownership of the m shares to his name? Noelle chewed emery op her lip as she said, "That won't work. My uncle left the family for this exact reason. He's an adopted child, and my father has been wary of him for a while now. My uncle decided to leave because he had zero interest in such affairs."
Sometimes, Noelle could not help but think about how she and Joshuan were in the sboat. The only difference was that Joshua could choose to leave, while she could not.
"Is that so?" Charles said as his lips curled upward into a smile that did not reach his eyes. He looked down and used an elegant finger to point at the table where the soup was placed as he said, "The food's here. Let's eat!" COIN BUNDLE: get more free bonus X Like RICH WOMEN?
