Chapter 208
As Lauren knitted a sweater, she replied, âHe probably wants to discuss inheritance matters!â
Hera pouted. âIs there even a need for discussion? Just split everything up. It doesnât matter as long as we get Baroque and they get Rococo. They can take the land that the Lewis estate is on if they want to!â
Lauren flapped the sweater she was holding. âWould be nice if that were the case!â
Stunned, Hera asked, âHow else are they thinking of splitting things?â
Nash, who was driving, smiled. âBaroque Group owns the 7nm photolithography machine and has dealings with Drake Group. The future looks bright for Baroque Group, and Iâm pretty sure they want to own shares in Baroque Group as wellâ¦â
Hera could already imagine the foul looks on her uncleâs familyâs faces. She bit down on her lip. âMy parents have poured their heart and soul into the Baroque Group for over twenty years. Thereâs no way weâll let them have any shares!â
No one in the Lewis family had extended them a helping hand when the Baroque Group had fallen into a financial crisis.
Back then, her parents had worked day and night, traveling everywhere and anywhere to borrow money from those who would lend it to them.
Of course, her grandfather had assisted them since he had been the one who established all of the Lewis familyâs businesses.
The companyâs losses had been due to her fatherâs mismanagement.
However, although Hubert was his older brother, he had not given her father any help.
Instead, he backstabbed him and mocked him from his comfortable position.
Her parents had made it through those dark times, and Baroque Group was doing extremely well now with Nashâs help.
How could they allow shares to Baroque to be taken away?
âYour grandfather owns forty percent of the shares in both Baroque and Rococo!â
âSince he passed on without writing a will, your uncle is entitled to twenty percent of Baroqueâs shares!â
Lauren sounded defeated. She had married Harrison despite her familyâs protests and ran the Baroque Group alongside him.
They had poured all their heart and soul into the company for over twenty years.
âDoes that mean we must yield that twenty percent of shares?â Hera asked disgruntledly, her face turning pale.
âThatâs right!â Harrison sighed. âBut weâll also get twenty percent of Rococoâs shares, so it wonât be a total lossâ¦â
âI donât want any shares of Rococo!â Hera said unhappily.
âWe could buy the twenty percent back from them!â Nash suggested, smiling.
âDo you think theyâll sell it to us?â Hera asked.
âWeâll play things by ear!â
Nash rubbed his nose as he spoke nonchalantly.
Laurenâs eyes gleamed as she flapped the sweater she was holding and said, âIâve finished knitting this sweater. What do you guys
you guys think?â
Hera stared at the tiny sweater. âWhoâs going to wear a sweater this small?â
When she recalled what her father had said last night, she clapped a hand to her mouth and said, âMom⦠you arenât thinking of giving me a sibling, are you?â
Harrison guffawed. âThis sweater is for my grandchildâ¦â
Heraâs face turned crimson. âWhat⦠itâs too early for thatâ¦â
She and Nash had not even slept with each other yet, and her mother had already begun knitting sweaters for their child.
No one could even predict if she would have a son or daughter!
Harrison added, âSo you guys should get a move onâ¦â
One hour later.
At Hubertâs mansion.
The family and Adam sat on the couch.
Nash walked in with the rest of the family.

Adam immediately got to his feet. âMr. Harrison, Ms. Mare!â Harrison and Lauren smiled as they nodded to him in greeting.
