âShut up,â
Amanda snapped.
Vivien was confused.
âMom, what do you mean? Whatâs wrong with me cursing Lucinda? Why are you protecting her? I donât recognize you anymore!â
Amanda sighed but didnât want to talk to her anymore.
Lucinda shook off the insults.
âYou can curse me as much as you want after I finish what I came to say.
â
Why would Lucinda say that? Was she happy to receive abuse?
Vivien felt as though the world had tilted sideways.
âOkay.
What did you come here to say?â

Nodding at the document on the table, Lucinda said, âI plan to return this house to you.
I am also willing to transfer the 40% of my shares in the Roberts Group to you and another 45% to any future Roberts children you give birth to.
â
Vivien was stunned.
âBut why?â
âI do have a few conditions though.
The shares will only be transferred after you prove you can manage the Roberts Group.
And the transfer agreement for the house will be signed by Mrs.
Roberts once you agree to all the conditions.
â
âI knew you wouldnât just give it to us.
â Vivien rolled her eyes.
âSo what are your conditions?â
âFirstly, you canât marry someone from a rich and powerful clan.
You must marry a loyal and honest but ordinary man, and your children must bear the surname Roberts instead of taking their fatherâs family name.

Secondly, you are not properly-educated.
I have hired a noble etiquette teacher for you.
You will receive strict training from now on.
Thirdly, when you can behave yourself, I will employ you within the Roberts Group to learn management techniques.
When you are able to deal with the business independently, I will hand over the shares.
Vivien stared at Lucinda open mouthed.
âAre you joking? I canât do any of those things.
Why are you tormenting me?â
âWell.
If you arenât even willing to try, forget it,â Lucinda said.
She stood up and got ready to leave.
âWait, Amanda said.
She gave Vivien a pleading look and tried to persuade her daughter to be reasonable.
