Otherwise, why would Sally have sent Miranda away and stayed at the York residence all these years?Nina's lips curled into a smile. "I already had shares before. Now, I'm the largest shareholder of York Corporation. Whether I keep them or not is none of your business. Someone, see her out!"At her command, several helpers stepped forward. Sally knew she could not take on all of them, so she turned to leave, but not before casting a venomous glare at Nina.Today, the enmity between Sally and Nina was sealed. From now on, it would be a battle to the death.After Sally left, Nina heard footsteps behind her. She turned and spoke seriously, "Quincy, arrange for some people to stay close to me. Also, schedule a high-level meeting at York Corporation in a few days."Before his death, Nash had transferred all his assets to her. With his death now public and Sally's recent actions, it was clear that Sally would likely conspire with other shareholders and executives to create trouble for h
Wilfred gave her a feeling that he knew something and was making some sort of decision. However, he just smiled gently, "What could I possibly know? What I know is no longer a secret."The only thing he knew for certain was that he had recognized Ivy at first sight. Collaborating with Miranda was just a strategy to break up Ivy and Nash. He had only wanted to get closer to Ivy. But in a moment of carelessness, Ivy was captured by Sawyer, leading Scarlett to fail to recognize her and administer the poison."Get some rest," Scarlett said, then turned and went back to her guest room. Tomorrow, she would not only stay by Nina's side but also take care of some personal matters.……In the Yaren tribe, Micah and the Pharaoh were in the council chamber. The Pharaoh stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the map on the wall. After a few moments, he circled a region in the north with a red pen and drew two long arrows in the south."Seth, that traitor, wants to reshape the Yaren
The Pharaoh's eyes were slightly red. Ever since discovering that Nina was Ivy, he had stopped wearing his mask. His expression was not good at the moment. Micah could try to persuade Nina on the Pharaoh’s behalf, but he could not empathize with some of the Pharaoh's actions.Micah coldly retorted, "If you don't trust my words, then make your own arrangements."With that, Micah turned and left the council chamber without looking back.---In the presidential palace of Salterra, the man who the president had ordered to be saved had regained consciousness. His face was injured and wrapped in white bandages, making him look like a mummy.The president frowned at the man lying motionless on the bed. "Are you trying to defy me?"If he had not kept people around him constantly, this man would not even have the chance to lie here and move his eyes."No," the man croaked, his voice hoarse from lack of use.The president smirked. "If that’s true, you wouldn’t be acting this way. Take
Nina was still at home when the company shareholders started calling. Both the landline and Quincy's phone rang constantly. Different people, but all with the same tone and message:"Mr. York transferred the assets to you without our consent, and those documents weren't notarized.""You are not Mr. York's only beneficiary. You need to return what you took!""If you don't come to the company, we'll have to come to Riverside Estate."The calls kept coming, and the voices multiplied.Nina's lips curled into a cold smile. "If we’re discussing business, it should be done at the company. None of you are family, nor did you have our consent to visit my home."With a glance from Nina, Quincy and the helper simultaneously hung up the phones.Nina, now uninterested in breakfast, said, "Let's head to York Corporation. Quincy, call my aunt.""Understood," Quincy replied without hesitation.Scarlett instinctively positioned herself behind Nina as they all moved out. Wilfred watched them le
Nina was the most important person to Nash. If he were here, he would not let her suffer any mistreatment. Now, standing by Nina's side, Quincy had to represent the deceased Nash's position, not only to protect Nina but also to maintain his own integrity.Quincy’s gaze hardened. "Before Mr. York passed away, he transferred all his assets to Miss Nina. Here are the transfer dates. At that time, Miss Nina was in labor, but unfortunately, the child did not survive. Given how many years Miss Nina stood by Mr. York's side, her receiving these assets is completely justified.""Nina, you called for me?" As Quincy finished speaking, a surprised voice approached. Zoe, wearing a light purple dress and sporting short auburn hair, walked over, exuding both sensuality and charm.Nina smiled and walked towards Zoe. "Aunt Zoe."She greeted her before turning to the crowd. "Since you all object to me having York Corporation’s assets, I'll transfer everything to a member of the York family. If th
Sally's gaze was sharp and her expression was dark and foreboding. She was clearly prepared for a showdown with Zoe.Zoe, however, was not one to back down. "Outsider? Am I considered an outsider now?"Nina had not expected that even transferring the assets to Zoe would provoke such a strong reaction from Sally. "Aunt Zoe, I didn't bring you here to argue with others. That wasn't my intention, and I don't want you to be upset. I have the authority to transfer the assets to you."With that, Nina gave Quincy a look. Although Quincy had not anticipated Nina's decision, he followed her instructions in front of everyone and handed the original documents to Zoe.Zoe pressed her lips together, ready to speak, but Nina quickly continued, "I have my own plans and no interest in managing the company. Aunt Zoe, Nash cared deeply about this company and wanted to preserve the York family legacy. You are the best person for the job. Quincy, regarding your request for leave, please discuss it wit
As Zoe spoke, she moved toward Sally. Though Zoe was not very tall, she had an imposing presence that made Sally feel small.Sally's face turned pale. The relationship between her and Miranda was known throughout the York family. From beginning to end, she had been a laughable clown. No wonder Mr. York Sr. never spoke much to her, didn't accept her arrangements, and chose Nina as Nash's wife instead. No wonder William never came home. No wonder Zoe always looked at her with disdain, and Nina held her in such contempt."Hahaha!" Sally burst into maniacal laughter, losing all semblance of dignity. Zoe, uninterested in prolonging the encounter, turned and left the conference room.But where was Nina?Nina was currently leaving York Corporation, planning to visit her parents. Scarlett followed her closely, worried that Nina might be overwhelmed by her emotions.Sitting in the car, Nina received a call from Zoe."Aunt Zoe," Nina answered.Zoe tried to comfort her, "I know you
Hearing this, Zion and Julia exchanged worried glances. Why was Nina speaking like this after just one trip? Could it be?Their throats felt tight as if something was lodged there, and their eyes were clouded with worry. They sensed a problem but did not know how to address it. Eventually, Nina spoke first, "Mom, Dad, I know I'm not your biological daughter, but you've treated me better than any real parents could."With that, Nina fell to her knees, overwhelmed with emotion. Zion and Julia immediately tried to help her up. Tears streamed down her face as she looked up at them, her eyes red and swollen."You have given me more than I could ever repay," Nina said, her voice breaking. "But rest assured, I only acknowledge myself as your daughter. I will always remember your kindness, and you will always be my parents. Here are all my savings."In the past, Nina would regularly send money to their account, which they saved without spending, always giving back to her whenever the
