Chapter 1723
It was especially true for Damien and Dillon. Dexter, who had been listening by the side and not speaking, had no intention to participate in this skirmish. But when he heard about splitting the family up, it was a huge matter and he could not help but stand up. "Nicole, you're still young, you must be calm when dealing with trouble..."
Nicole looked at Dexter. The latter's family was always fair toward her family and had never bullied her parents, but there were some things that even they could not help.
Nicole lowered her tone as she looked at Dexter. "I won't force you if you don't want to split up, Uncle Dexter, but today, I'll represent my parents in asking to split away from Uncle Damien and Uncle Dillon. Each family shall only deal and profit from their projects, and no longer have anything to do with one another henceforth."
Mr. Riddle Sr. was slightly taken aback. He never thought that this little girl could be so stubborn and decide upon such an important matter just like that!
He had lived for so many years now and this was the first time he felt that his position as head of the Riddle family was just for show!
Yet, Nicole was now the wielder of the Fire Crest, and all of the family's businesses increased because of her, so, no matter how she wanted to allocate things, he was powerless to stop her.
Seeing Mr. Riddle Sr. keeping quiet, Karen got anxious. "Dad! You're the head of the house! Nicole is literally stepping all over you! You can't just listen to her like that!"
But Mr. Riddle Sr. only felt worn out when he looked at Karen. "I've already given Nicole my shares. Moreover, the company's being managed by Daniel and Sean right now. So, I'll leave the call to them."
His heart knew very well that when Damien and Dillon were managing the company, Daniel never once took more than what he was entitled. Even when he had shares, Daniel never took the full amount of dividends due to his guilty conscience.
