Chapter 224 Chapter 224 Chapter 224 +25 BONUS Noelle gritted her teeth and glanced at the arm Julian was gripping before she looked up. “What do you think, Dad?”

“Did you really give them to Joshua? Have you gone mad? Your grandfather adopted him as a child, and he’s 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 you’ve really given them to Joshua, City Ring Corp. will have to undergo an entire structural change!”

“I don’t think it’s that serious!” Noelle chuckled, placing a hand on Julian’s before shoving it away with great force. “Uncle Joshua has lived with Grandpa for many years, and Grandpa is genuinely fond of him. He’s long treated Uncle Joshua like a member of the Shaw family! Dad, are you denying that he’s part of the family when not even Grandpa is doing that?”

“What do you know? At the end of the day, he’s not related to the family by blood. Your grandfather might be nice to him, but who knows what’s actually going through Joshua’s mind? What if your grandfather’s inheritance is all he cares about?” 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.

“Where’s Joshua? Did he go into hiding after getting those shares?”

“I didn’t give the shares to Uncle Joshua,” Noelle said as she gazed at Julian cooly. “He’s still out of the country now, and he couldn’t care less about fighting against you for the Shaw family inheritance. Don’t assume the worst of everyone, Dad. Uncle Joshua has always thought of us as family, and he’d be devastated if he found out that this is how we think of him in return.”

“Then, who did you give them to?!” Julian asked as he gritted his teeth. “Who else could you have given them to besides Joshua?”

Julian could not care less what Joshua thought. All he wanted to know was who owned the rights to City Ring Corp’s shares now.

Noelle smirked. “Stop wasting your time, Dad, I won’t tell you. All you have to do is promise me you’ll do a good job managing City Ring Corp and that you won’t transfer ownership of whatever shares you hold now to anyone else.” As Noelle spoke, she turned to meet Winter and Xavier’s eyes before she smiled and said, “If you do that, I can promise that the shares under Grandpa’s ownership won’t do anything to threaten your position in City Ring Corp. But I’ll definitely take action if there are any changes made to the shares under your ownership.”

“Are you threatening me?” Julian asked, his teeth gritted together. “Do you know who you’re talking to?” “Yes, of course I do.

You’re my father! But you’re also Winter’s father and the president of City Ring Corp. Many things demand your attention, and I have a lot of balls in the air too. I’m no longer the person I once was, Dad. I won’t make any compromises on these shares the way I used to give in to you when it came to other matters. That’s all you need to know!”

Noelle swept her cold gaze across Winter and Xavier as she spoke. Winter’s hands were curled into fists, and the look in her eyes was similar to that of a venomous snake’s as she glared at Noelle. Meanwhile, Xavier’s eyes glinted greedily as he wrapped an arm around Winter’s shoulders.

Noelle frowned in disgust as she averted her gaze. “I have other matters to attend to. I’ll be taking my leave now.”

You b*tch!” Jade rushed over to stand in Noelle’s way, but Noelle swiftly dodged past her as she said, “Mom, I’d advise you to stop meddling if you’re truly concerned for the wellbeing of both myself and City Ring Corp! If I get upset, the company will undergo a massive restructuring!”
