Chapter 313
I was stunned for a moment.
In an instant, I figured out Ryan’s current identity, but I could hardly believe it!
Wasn’t he bankrupt?
It turned out he had merely used a ruse to escape his predicament…
In fact, after this maneuver, his power was even more robust than before.
As soon as I realized this, my first instinct was panic…
I thought I had severed ties with him, but now he was the largest shareholder of my company?
I still clung to a shred of hope that perhaps he was just visiting with lan and had come along to inspect.
lan smiled and introduced, “Ms. Wilson, Miss Greenwood, this is the RF Group’s new… new deputy CEO, Mr. Frost.”
>The position introduced was a level below lan’s.
But lan had always been a step behind Ryan, and his body language couldn’t lie.
However, they were now major shareholders of the Charlotte Jewelry. I didn’t want to cause a scene, so I forced a vague smile and said, “Is that so? I thought your owner was coming? Where is he?”
lan laughed awkwardly. “Actually, he had an urgent matter…”
“Alright.”
I didn’t press further. Jane also noticed the issue, but our years of unspoken understanding led us to silently agree to maintain appearances for now.
The group entered the conference room in full force. After a farcical meeting, lan dismissed everyone else.
He then looked at Jane, “Miss Greenwood, could you show me around your design department?”
The implication was quite clear.
“Mr. Brown, Ms. Wilson is the head of the design department; she is more familiar…”
Jane, concerned about leaving me alone with Ryan, tried to refuse on the spot.
Seeing Ryan’s calm demeanor, I interrupted, “Jane, take Mr. Brown. I have some questions for Mr. Frost.”
Some things needed to be addressed, and I didn’t want to delay any further.
“Charlotte…”
Jane hesitated for a moment, but seeing my insistence, she relented and led lan out.
For a moment, the office was left with just Ryan and me.
The man’s gaze was fixed on me, but he remained silent, waiting for me to speak first.

I felt as though he held all the initiative.
I stood up, agitated, and decided to be get straight to the point. “You are the owner of the RF Group, aren’t you?”
“Yes.”
Ryan did not avoid the question or show any sign of guilt. His voice was low. “So, can we consider reconciling?”
