---
It was a stock transfer agreement. Clearly written on it was Mr. Kevin Everly’s intention to transfer his ten percent shareholding in the Everly Group to Amara.
Mr. Kevin Everly had already signed and stamped the document—all that remained was for Amara to do the same.
Amara was startled. She immediately pushed the paperwork away and stood up. “Grandpa, I really can’t accept these shares in the Everly Group. I know you truly see me as your granddaughter, and I see you as my own grandfather.”
“But it’s enough for you to treat me well, and for me to be good to you. When it comes to these shares, I really can’t accept them.”
The Everly Group was one of the country's most prominent conglomerates—just owning even a tiny fraction of its shares, let alone ten percent, would guarantee a lifetime of comfort and security.
Thinking of how much Mr. Kevin Everly wanted to give to her, Amara’s heart ached—she even felt her eyes growing wet.
Mr. Kevin Everly was truly good to her. Though she wasn’t related to him by blood, he treated her no differently than Hogan or Celeste.
She would always remember this kindness in her heart, and she would do her best to be there for Mr. Kevin Everly. But she absolutely could not accept these shares.
Mr. Kevin Everly frowned. “Ama, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to distance yourself from your grandfather?”
Amara sat back down and held onto his arm. “Grandpa, how can you say that? That would break my heart. There's no way I would ever distance myself from you.”
“I'll never turn away from you. I'll come visit you often, I'll look after you. But about the shares—I really can’t take them…”
Her voice was gentle, but unwavering. She was determined—she would never accept a stake in the Everly family’s business.
Mr. Kevin Everly knew her well enough to know how stubborn she was. He couldn’t help but sigh.
