His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1296

It meant that the Hu family owned the largest stake in Tarsan Corporation and could hold a general meeting of shareholders at any time to bring her down, just like how she used to bring Rachel down.

Holley became scared when she realized this. She feared that she would have the same fate as Rachel. Having received everything she'd wanted and enjoyed the glory, she was unwilling to lose what she'd gained.

Her only choice seemed to be to win Black's loyalty and get him to give her his stock shares.

She had treated Black coldly for over a week with the excuse that she was busy working. She wanted to gradually stay away from him. But now she would have to reach out to him again.

"Holley, are you busy again today? I haven't seen you for a few days. I miss you so much. Can I take you to dinner after you get off work?"

Black was calling her once again and this time, Holley didn't refuse him as she'd done before. Attempting to regain the passion she had for him when they had started dating, Holley said, "I've finally finished my work. I miss you, too, Black. I'll be waiting for you after work."

When evening came, the pair met up. They hugged and kissed and acted like an ordinary couple deeply in love.

They decided that instead of going out for dinner, Holley would prepare a home-cooked meal. When they finished eating, Black cleaned up and washed dishes. Eventually, the pair went for a walk in the garden, hand in hand. As they slowly walked around, Holley felt satisfaction settle deep within her. Leaning against Black's strong shoulder, she felt a sense of peace and safety.

However, the feeling quickly vanished when she recalled what had happened, including the humiliation and unfair treatment she had suffered through.

'Sheryl still lives happily with Charles. Why would I have to live with grievance with a fake face?'

Holley's hatred grew even stronger at the thought.

Now, no matter how nice and considerate Black was to her, she couldn't feel anything for him. Her only wish was for revenge and power. She needed to figure out how to get Rex's stock, as quickly as possible. If Rex didn't agree, that meant Black in fact controlled nothing useful and would therefore be unable to get her the stock.

What should she do?

Holley's mind was a mess. She prayed that the Hu Group was under Black's control. This man loved her so much. It would be so easy for her to take control of his shares.

But Holley had to face Rex. He was a master of trickery and deception, so she would need to be extremely careful.

What she could do was make sure Black kept loving her. As long as he was devoted to her, Holley could naturally take his shares of Tarsan Corporation when he someday took over his father's company.

Meanwhile, Cassie had been waiting impatiently to leave work. When work finally ended, she hurriedly gathered her things and prepared to leave. But suddenly, she saw Jordan walking toward her.

While she didn't know Jordan very well, she knew that he was Cora's older brother.

Many memorable things had happened the last time they'd met. Jordan had even gotten into a fight because of her, which made Cassie feel guilty and uneasy in front of him.

Seeing the man walking toward her, she paused awkwardly, wanting to ask him how he was.
