Noelle gritted her teeth and glanced at the arm Julian was gripping before she looked up. âWhat do
you think, Dad?â
âDid you really give them to Joshua? Have you gone mad? Your grandfather adopted him as a child,
and heâs not even an actual Shaw! How could you transfer ownership of those shares to an
outsider? Do you know just how many shares your grandfather owns? If youâve really given them to
Joshua, City Ring Corp. will have to undergo an entire structural change!â
âI donât think itâs that serious!â Noelle chuckled, placing a hand on Julianâs before shoving it away
with great force. âUncle Joshua has lived with Grandpa for many years, and Grandpa is genuinely
fond of him. Heâs long treated Uncle Joshua like a member of the Shaw family! Dad, are you
denying that heâs part of the family when not even Grandpa is doing that?â
âWhat do you know? At the end of the day, heâs not related to the family by blood. Your grandfather
might be nice to him, but who knows whatâs actually going through Joshuaâs mind? What if your
grandfatherâs inheritance is all he cares about?â Noelle was truly pissing Julian off. He had never
expected Noelle to be such an ingrate and to transfer ownership of the shares to Joshua.
âWhereâs Joshua? Did he go into hiding after getting those shares?â
âI didnât give the shares to Uncle Joshua,â Noelle said as she gazed at Julian cooly. âHeâs still out of
the country now, and he couldnât care less about fighting against you for the Shaw family
inheritance. Donât assume the worst of everyone, Dad. Uncle Joshua has always thought of us as
family, and heâd be devastated if he found out that this is how we think of him in return.â
âThen, who did you give them to?!â Julian asked as he gritted his teeth. âWho else could you have
given them to besides Joshua?â
Julian could not care less what Joshua thought. All he wanted to know was who owned the rights to
City Ring Corpâs shares now.
Noelle smirked. âStop wasting your time, Dad, I wonât tell you. All you have to do is promise me
youâll do a good job managing City Ring Corp and that you wonât transfer ownership of whatever
shares you hold now to anyone else.â As Noelle spoke, she turned to meet Winter and Xavierâs
eyes before she smiled and said, âIf you do that, I can promise that the shares under Grandpaâs
ownership wonât do anything to threaten your position in City Ring Corp. But Iâll definitely take action
if there are any changes made to the shares under your ownership.â
âAre you threatening me?â Julian asked, his teeth gritted together. âDo you know who youâre talking
to?â âYes, of course I do. Youâre my father! But youâre also Winterâs father and the president of City
Ring Corp. Many things demand your attention, and I have a lot of balls in the air too. Iâm no longer
the person I once was, Dad. I wonât make any compromises on these shares the way I used to give
in to you when it came to other matters. Thatâs all you need to know!â
Noelle swept her cold gaze across Winter and Xavier as she spoke. Winterâs hands were curled into
fists, and the look in her eyes was similar to that of a venomous snakeâs as she glared at Noelle.
Meanwhile, Xavierâs eyes glinted greedily as he wrapped an arm around Winterâs shoulders.
Noelle frowned in disgust as she averted her gaze. âI have other matters to attend to. Iâll be taking
my leave now.â

âStop right there, Noelle Shaw. You b*tch!â Jade rushed over to stand in Noelleâs way, but Noelle
swiftly dodged past her as she said, âMom, Iâd advise you to stop meddling if youâre truly concerned
for the wellbeing of both myself and City Ring Corp! If I get upset, the company will undergo a
massive restructuring!â
