Noelle continued talking to Samuel, but he soon fell asleep because of his frail health. She pulled a
blanket over him and gazed at him for a while before taking her purse and leaving the room.
Both Julian and Jade were still outside when she left the room. Upon seeing her, Jade hurried over
and asked, âWhat did your grandfather tell you? Did you talk to him about the shares?â
Jade grabbed Noelle by the arm and shook it violently. âCome on! Say something. Has he agreed to
transfer ownership of the stocks to your sister?â
âLet me go!â
If Noelle had harbored any hope for Jade to eventually start treating her better, she could admit now
that she had been a blind fool. Jadeâs intentions were obvious. She could not care less about Noelle
or about
Grandpaâs health. All she wanted was the shares.
âGrandpa is still unwell, yet all you care about are those shares and not his health.â Noelle gritted
her teeth. âIâve already told you that I wonât help you with that. Itâs up to Grandpa how he wants to
allocate ownership of those shares, and neither of us has the right to interfere!â
âYou b*tch!â Jade blustered. âHow dare you speak to me that way! I am your mother!â
âNow you remember that youâre my mother?â Noelle scoffed at how ridiculous Jade was being. âIâm
afraid it seems that youâve never thought of me as your daughter! The same applies to you, Dad!â
âNoelle, how could you speak to Mom and Dad like this?â Winter asked disapprovingly. She walked
over and tried to take Noelleâs hand, but Noelle managed to dodge it. Winter met Noelleâs eyes
sheepishly. She had a few tricks that she used over and over again, but they were always effective.
The pitiful look on Winterâs face immediately made Julian and Jadeâs hearts melt, and they both
gave Noelle criticizing looks.
Julian was extremely displeased with the way Noelle had spoken to him. Was the gentle and docile
demeanor she displayed in the past just an act? Were her true colors coming to light now that she
had gained ownership of Sir Shawâs shares?
âNoelle, what did your grandfather say to you?â
âHe didnât say much. All he said was that he experienced a relapse because someone deliberately
made him lose his temper, and he told me not to worry!â Noelle replied, directing her gaze toward
Julian and Jade as she spoke. âMom, Dad, since you guys are living with Grandpa, I believe itâs
your duty as his children to be more mindful of his health.â
âB*tch! Is that how you should talk to me?â Julian replied angrily. He had noticed Noelleâs
accusatory tone.
He was her senior, but she was finding fault with him. Imagine what that did to his ego! âI want to
know what your grandfather told you just now. You can tell me if you need money. I can give you
more money. However, I wonât allow you to take ownership of the companyâs stocks. How are you
supposed to manage a company when you know nothing?â
Noelle smirked. âIâm sure thatâs what your actual plan is!â
âWhat?â

Julian was stunned. Iâm one of City Ring Corp.âs executives. It only makes sense that I would be
concerned!â
Then why werenât you concerned about Grandpaâs health when youâre his son? Grandpa woke up
last night, but have you asked about his condition even once? No, you didnât!â This was the actual
reason Noelle was so disappointed in Julian. âDo you know why Grandpa wants me to own those
shares instead of you? Are you sure you really donât know his reasons?
âWhy even bother talking to her? This is how that little brat has always acted. Sheâs infuriating!â
Jade was much less patient than Julian was, and she was extremely annoyed at the way Noelle
was acting. âMake her cough up those shares!â
