Chapter 276
Thalia bit her lip, trying to hold herself together.

She didn’t go inside. Instead, she stayed outside for a long time, making sure she was done feeling sad before finally heading back.
Diana was already asleep. Thalia got onto the small bed and watched Diana sleep, letting go of that ache in her heart.
She was done with it.
She’d already accepted reality. What was there left to be sad about?
She was more determined than ever.
Trenton and his wife owed her too much. If they dared to give Miya any money, she’d show no mercy.
She didn’t want the Coleman Group, but she’d rather see it burn.
The next day, Shyla didn’t show up.
Diana didn’t ask about it. Seeing Thalia looking a bit worn out, she asked, “Sweetheart, didn’t you sleep well?”
Thalia nodded. “Yeah, I worked overtime yesterday. I’m really tired.”
Diana said, “You need to balance work and rest, or your body will break down.”
Thalia nodded obediently. “Okay, I know. I’ll listen to you.”
She had the three caregivers return to look after Diana once more.
After breakfast, she headed to work. As soon as she got to the office, her phone rang.
“Hello, is this Ms. Coleman?” The caller was a young man.
“Who are you?” Thalia asked, sounding confused.
“My name is Zane. Mrs. Diana Brooks has asked me to transfer her assets to your name. Are you available right now? Could we meet?”
Thalia’s eyes went wide for a moment. She’d almost forgotten about this.
Suddenly, she remembered. Before Diana got sick, she was planning to leave, and right before she left, she told Thalia she’d give her everything she owned.
Thinking about it now, Diana probably knew about her illness all along. That’s probably why she made those arrangements.
Thalia felt her breath catch; her chest felt tight, and she was really uneasy.
She took a deep breath and said, “Yeah, I’m free. I’ll send you my location.”
“Okay,” Zane replied.

After hanging up. Thalia sent him the location of the cafe across the street.
She let Wesley know and then headed downstairs.
Wesley was speechless.
‘She’s totally out of control!’ he thought.
Just leaves whenever she wants? I should dock her pay!”

But then he realized the amount he’d dock wouldn’t even cover one of her spa days. He sighed, thinking, ‘Man, it’s hard being me!
Half an hour later, Zane arrived at the café.
He found the table and spotted Thalia. “Ms. Coleman, hello,” he greeted her.
“Hello,” Thalia replied.
She stood up. “Zane, please have a seat.”
Zane nodded and took a seat across from her. He opened his briefcase and set a thick stack of paperwork on the table in front of her.
“These are all of Mrs. Diana Brooks’s assets, including, but not limited to, thirty properties, five private islands, seven cruise ships, shares in biotech companies, a private security firm, and some international holdings.
“Please look them over. If everything looks good, just sign and it’ll take effect right away.”
Thalia was lost for words.
