Mister still hadn’t shown himself, but Savannah was already exposed, so she wasn’t much of a threat anymore, The Gills, though.

They were still a wild card.

“What did you find out about the Gills?” Adriana asked quietly.

She really wanted to ask Curtis when he’d finally be back.

“There’s definitely something off about the Gills, but so far, nothing I’ve found points directly to them.” Curtis explained that all the clues he’d tracked down couldn’t be tied to the Gills. He added that the head of the family definitely wasn’t the same person as Mister.

“Don’t worry about me. You just have to take care of yourself…” Adriana said softly.

“Adriana, it’s going to be over soon.” Curtis tried to reassure her.

He didn’t need hard evidence. Once he was sure who Mister was, he’d come back right away and confront him out in the open.

“Yeah, it’ll all pass.”

Adriana had just hung up when a commotion broke out in the hall.

“Where’s Adriana? I need to see her! Get out of my way!” The shouting voice outside the office could only be Savannah’s.

Ernest had just died, and Savannah was already causing trouble.

The office door swung open, and Adriana saw Savannah yelling in the hallway. “Ms. Summer, I heard about your father’s death. There’s just too much going on in the company right now -I haven’t had time to pay my respects. What brings you here at a time like this?”

Adriana played dumb, keeping her cool as she looked at Savannah.

Savannah glanced at the people blocking her path, then looked straight at Adriana. “I need to discuss something with you. It’s about Lincoln Group and Denton. Are you sure you want me to say it out here?”

Savannah was in such a rush to see Adriana, it wasn’t decisive–it was just reckless.

What Adriana had always worried about was Ernest. He’d been a crafty old fox, and she’d

In the end, though, the smooth–talking man had been taken out by his own daughter.

Adriana watched Savannah with a smile. Guess it true what they say what goes around comes around.

“Come in.” Adriana let Savannah into her office.

As soon as they were alone, Savannah got right to the point. “I’m here to tell you that Denton needs to transfer half of his Lincoln Group shares to me and hand over control of the company.”

Adriana laughed at that. Savannah, on the other hand, looked completely confident. She was sure that the leverage in her hand would be enough to force Adriana and Denton to cave.

“I’m just his sister–in–law, not his mother. If you want his shares, you’ll have to talk to him, coming to me is a waste of time.” Adriana smiled as she looked at Savannah. “Besides, Denton and Maya are already engaged and getting married soon. He’s an adult, he doesn’t need me making decisions for him. Why not talk it over with the Gills?”

“You think you can scare me with the Gills?” Savannah scoffed. “You really think I don’t know you’re the one who pushed Denton to be with Maya? You just wanted Denton to have the Gills backing him. But I’m telling you, I still have something on Denton. Whether that marriage goes through or not, it all depends on me.” Savannah laughed, as if she thought Adriana was an idiot.

“Really? What kind of dirt do you have on him? Why not show me?” Adriana leaned back in her chair and stared at Savannah.

Savannah pulled out a photo–a shot of Denton and Lily, cozy together as a couple.

Adriana laughed. “You think a photo of Denton with his ex–girlfriend is going to ruin his wedding? They broke up on good terms.”

Savannah sneered at Adriana. “But you know Denton and Lily slept together, right?”
