Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 456

Fifteen minutes later, Azure’s car arrived at a small alley.

It wasn’t until Christina saw her grandmother stepping out of the vehicle that she approached the automobile.

“Grandma.” She threw herself into Azure’s arms, her heart still pounding. That was too close. If I had remained captured, I’d be imprisoned in Scenic Garden Manor again.

“Why are you this frightened, my child? Come, let’s talk inside the car.” Without delay, Azure brought the younger woman into the vehicle before it drove away.

Through the rearview mirror, Christina watched the alley gradually vanish from her sight and sighed in relief.

“Why are you alone? Where are the children?” inquired Azure caringly.

A cold look swirled in Christina’s calm eyes. Tightening her grip, she answered, “We’ll go back first. In the future, we’ll come back and pick them up.”

Azure patted her granddaughter’s hand. “I’ll do whatever you wish, my dear.”

At the same time, Nathaniel returned to the condominium but couldn’t find Christina anywhere.

I see her luggage, which means she left without returning here. Grimacing, he felt as if powerful waves were crashing against his body.

Sebastian approached him and reported, “The bodyguards searched the whole place with me. We can’t find her.”

Narrowing his eyes, Nathaniel thought, She fled, then? Well, as long as the children are still at my side, she’s not going anywhere. “Bring the children back to Scenic Garden Manor.”

Meanwhile, a beam of sunlight landed inside the study within Yeatder Villa at Hallsbay. There, Christina received a picture from a private detective. So, Lucas and Camila were brought back to Scenic Garden Manor by Nathaniel. He even transferred them to a different, aristocratic kindergarten. It seems they’re busy with homework every day.

She brushed her finger on the screen. Wait for me, Darlings. I’ll grow stronger and bring you two to my side.

Suddenly, Azure knocked on the door and entered the room with the share transfer document. “Once you put your signature on this paper, thirty percent of Gibson Corporation’s shares will be yours. With that, you’ll become the biggest shareholder in the company.”

Without hesitation, Christina put her signature on the document as she desperately needed money.

After all, whoever could provide the children with a better environment was more likely to win their custody.

The difference between Christina’s and Nathaniel’s status was too significant. Therefore, if she couldn’t rapidly close that gap, she could never snatch the children’s custody from him.

Azure watched Christina sign before handing the document to the latter. “From this moment onward,

you’re the largest shareholder in Gibson Corporation. I hope you’ll lead the company to greater heights.”

“I will do my best, Grandma.” Christina nodded.

Abruptly, urgent footsteps disturbed the tender moment in the study.

When Anya saw the signed document, her eyes almost popped from her skull. “How can you hand all the shares to Christina, Grandma?” Now that Christina’s the biggest shareholder in Gibson Corporation, she can become the CEO! Doesn’t that mean she can do whatever she wants to me in the company?

With a serious expression, Azure answered, “This is what Christina deserves.” I took Yerek’s shares away, leaving only three percent behind.

Anya was upset. “Christina’s just a designer, Grandma. There’s no way she knows how to run a company!” How can someone who has never learned a thing about business management helm such a big company?

Patting her shoulder, Azure replied, “She can learn. With your help, she’ll definitely be able to take good care of the company.”

Me? Helping Christina? What kind of joke is that? Then again, so what if Christina’s entering the company? I’ll find a way to kick her out! Anya stifled her reaction so her grandmother wouldn’t notice her true thoughts and narrowed her eyes at Christina. “Christina, I’m very experienced as I’ve been the vice CEO of the company for almost four years. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask me about it.”

Christina left the study and returned to her room to read the company document. I don’t have time to waste. I need to adapt to my new identity as soon as possible. The children are still waiting for me at Scenic Garden Manor.

It’s been twelve hours. Christina didn’t call even once to ask about the kids. Nathaniel narrowed his pursed lips. When did she become that ruthless? I’m really surprised.
