Chapter 122

Stunned, Noelle bit down on her lip as she thought about how she should explain the situation to him. In the end, though, she chose to shake her head and say, It’s nothing!After all, she could not tell him she was thanking the stars she had not been born in March, could she

Charles smiled and poured Noelle another cup of tea as he said, Since your grandfather has given you a portion of the shares, you should keep hold of it without any worries. I’m sure you know what Xavier and Joseph are plotting!” 

As Charles changed the subject, Noelle became serious as well as she nodded. I’m sure Grandpa has his reasons for doing so. I just hope things aren’t as complicated as they seem.

Your grandfather is the founder of City Ring Corp, and he built your family’s fortune up from the ground, which is why City Ring Corp is so important to him.

I always thought my mother was the one who played favorites because my sister has always been the charming one.” 

Your grandfather is getting on in age now, and your father’s the one making decisions for City Ring Corp.I’m pretty sure he’s had his eye on the shares under your grandfather’s name for some time now. Otherwise, he would not have been so against your grandfather giving them to you.” 

Charles added, You’re a smart kid. If the shares belonged to you, there’s no way you would transfer ownership over to them.”
