"Yeah." Linda smiled. "We don't want to shortchange our daughter, but she..."
"Pamela, you're mistaken!" Melvin squinted. "You should accept what your parents give you. It's a matter of respect as a child!"
Renee clenched her fists tightly, then slowly relaxed them. She remained silent for a moment before gently accepting the document.
Linda's eyes brightened, and she flashed a joyful smile.
"Well, I'll sign it," Renee said softly. "But can I take a closer look at it first?"
"Of course!" Linda quickly agreed. "You can go back to your room and examine it carefully after dinner. Take as much time as you need. If you need the help of a lawyer, I have suitable contacts here!"
"Linda, I know a few good lawyers who can—"
"No need!" Renee suddenly raised her head.
Melvin was taken aback. Although she still looked timid, he clearly saw a wash of determination in her eyes during that moment of eye contact.
He was somewhat surprised and silently observed her.
"I don't need your recommendation, Uncle Melvin." Renee took a deep breath and looked at Linda. "Let's use the lawyers from our own company. After all, everyone is in the same company, and they're familiar with the business."
Melvin's eyes flashed with anger. "Pamela, the lawyers in your parents' company handle important matters! Don't bother them with such trivial issues!"
"This... shouldn't be considered trivial," Renee calmly said. "In the future, the entire Thompson Group will be mine. For now, I should better understand its personnel and business. I can start by getting to know the lawyers."
"You..." Melvin's face changed.
Could it be that this girl wanted to keep everything for herself? He didn't dare show any hints of it in front of Linda.
He clenched his fists and sneered. "Fine, whatever Pamela says! Well then... study this document carefully!"
