Wynette firmly refused to accept the shares, and in the end, Adam could only reluctantly set the documents aside.

Looking at her, he sighed emotionally. “I really thought you and Noah would end up together. I prepared this transfer agreement a long time ago, just waiting for the day you married into the Shepherds so I could personally hand it to you.”

“What a shame… in the end, it just wasn’t meant to be. I only wanted to compensate you a little. If you won’t even accept this, how am I supposed to feel at ease?”

As he spoke, his eyes reddened again.

Wynette paused slightly in the middle of eating.

So… this share transfer agreement had been prepared long ago? Then how much of Noah’s feelings for me had actually been genuine?

At that moment, she finally understood why Justin had only swallowed up Jewell Group in that particular

way.

Because of Adam’s fondness for her, the Shepherds definitely knew about this share transfer agreement.

They had wanted Noah to marry her so that, through her, they could eventually obtain those shares as well.

But Justin didn’t dare devour Jewell Group while Adam was still alive. Although he had successfully taken over Shepherd Group, Adam still retained authority.

As far as Wynette knew, Adam still possessed veto power over major decisions within Shepherd Group.

If Noah married her, then all he had to do was coax her sweetly into voluntarily merging Jewell Group into Shepherd Group. That way, it would also be easier to explain things to Adam.

Justin really had calculated everything perfectly.

If Wynette hadn’t sensed something was wrong back then and investigated the Shepherds‘ true intentions, she probably would’ve already fallen into their trap.

Looking at Adam, she said softly, “I really can’t accept it, Mr. Adam. I appreciate your kindness.”

Now that she understood Justin’s schemes, there was even less chance she would take Shepherd Group’s shares.

And since she had made herself clear, Adam could only choose to respect her decision.

Throughout the meal, Wynette deliberately avoided discussing topics about both families. Instead, she casually chatted with Adam about random everyday stuff.

The old man could naturally see what she was trying to do, and the meal left a bitter heaviness in his chest.

More than anything, though, he felt anger toward his son and grandson.

The more he thought about it, the more upset he became.

By the end of the meal, he felt so upset he nearly had indigestion.

After dinner, Adam left Le Mirage burdened with worry.

Wynette was just about to head home when Joanne suddenly called her.

“Babe, where are you right now?” Joanne asked in a sweet tone.

Hearing her soft, sweet voice, Wynette told her she was at Le Mirage.

At that, Joanne said, “Wait for me there. I’m coming to find you. I’m nearby anyway, seeing a client tonight.”

Before Wynette could even respond, the call had already ended.

Left, with no choice, she stood quietly at the entrance waiting.

Less than ten minutes later, Joanne appeared before her.

She was dressed in a white blouse paired with black slacks, with a pair of low heels on her feet.

She looked every bit the polished elite professional.

The moment she saw Wynette, she immediately collapsed onto her shoulder. “Babe, hurry and let me hug you. I’m exhausted.”

Wynette let her cling to her, smiling indulgently. “You’ve been good; you’ve been good.”

As she comforted her gently, she patted her back soothingly.

Joanne soon straightened up. “Come drink with me?”

“Sure,” Wynette agreed with a nod.

She could tell Joanne was in a terrible mood.

The two drove separately to Fittro.

They returned to the same private room as before. Joanne pulled out one of Adriel’s treasured bottles of alcohol stored there and started drinking heavily the moment she sat down.

Wynette simply stayed by her side silently.

“Joanne.” Watching her down five glasses in one breath, Wynette finally stopped her.

Eli Bradford got married?

No wonder Joanne was in such a horrible mood today.

How was I supposed to comfort her?
