Mr. Webb, Make Your Move! Chapter 578
When it was time to talk, everyone had their say. However, once Yosef made a decision, the team united and gave it their all.Whether Azure Cloud Group was just too quick or Rofey Group too slow, when the stock market closed on Friday, Azure Cloud Group had snapped up 35% of SAM's shares. They came out on top.Unless Rofey Group could pry more shares from those speculators or convince SAM's shareholders to sell, they would not beat Azure Cloud Group.By Monday's shareholder meeting, SAM would officially be Azure Cloud Group's.Even Shawn told Zara, "Sell your SAM shares now while the price is good. Save what you can. Otherwise, when everything's settled by Monday, the share price will drop, and you'll lose your money and your shares. You'll even end up in debt."Rofey Group stayed out of the public eye during the 12-day clash.The bigwigs at Rofey Group were on the fence, watching Zara's every move. If she managed to snag SAM, they would cough up the cash she had bet with the ban

Those were some bold words.Zara turned to tease him, wanting to say, 'So that's the real you, Mr. Kronos.' However, before she could get the words out, there was a loud bang. It was like something exploded right in her head. Zara jumped in shock. At the same moment, the car spun out of control and smashed into a big tree!Thrown forward by the crash, Zara, who had not buckled up, hit the back of the front seat hard. Her ribs stung with the pain.Shawn, surprised as well, reacted quicker. He grabbed the car door handle and did not get thrown. He looked back just in time.Everything seemed to move in slow motion. He saw a brass-colored bullet zooming toward them, fast and fierce!In the nick of time, Shawn yanked Zara close and shielded her in his arms!The bullet struck the back window, but lucky for them, the car was bulletproof. The window did not break.The cars behind them sped up and formed a protective circle around their car.Zara was dazed, trying to figure out what j

The hitman saw his chance, stopped chasing, and quickly headed back to report.The news reached a fancy villa fast. The man who got the message was middle-aged with blond hair and blue eyes. He could not believe it. "Have they really been taken care of?""Yep! Their car crashed into the river and blew up. Even if they didn't die right then, they're surely badly hurt!"The man asked again, "What about the woman? The one named Lowry something. Is she gone too?"His son, who set up the whole attack, answered, "She was in the same car as Kronos. She's gotta be gone too!"The man finally relaxed, letting joy wash over him. "Great, that's fantastic. Nice job! We finally got rid of those two big problems!"His son chimed in, "Totally. If that woman hadn't been messing with the SAM deal, we wouldn't even know she showed up in Marsberg with Kronos! If people found out who she was, some stranger could've taken over the Rofey family!""No way! I'm Ravena Rofey's real nephew, and my last n

The manager's eyes widened in shock. "You want to visit Shawn? But Mr. Webb, Ravenswood Manor and Rofey Manor have the hospital on lockdown. Even the Rofeys can't get in, much less us.""We're going now."With a lift of his gaze, Yosef made it clear there was no room for argument. The manager quickly told the driver to head to the private hospital, and they sped off.When they arrived, the hospital was under tight security. No one could get in or out, and there was no way to find out what was happening inside.Charvi was puzzled too. "Mr. Webb, what's got you so worried?"Yosef's eyes were fixed on the hospital doors, a hint of danger in his stare. He asked slowly, "Who's behind the attack?""We don't know. It might be a fight for power within the Rofey family. Some have always been against Shawn taking over."Yosef closed his eyes, thinking. Whoever stood to gain the most from that was likely the culprit. "If Shawn were gone, who'd be next in line?""Mrs. Ravena only got one d

Though it was on everyone's mind, hearing it said so plainly in the bright conference room made everyone tense up instantly.The death of the family head was, after all, a major event.Nord shouted in anger, "How dare you curse the head of the family?!"Gorton opened his arms wide. "Everyone here knows that Kronos had a terrible car crash last Saturday. Right now, only Mrs. Yach and you guys know if he's alive or dead. "Maybe Mrs. Yach is keeping it a secret that Kronos is gone so that she can grab all the inheritance for herself!"Sadie shot back, "Mrs. Yach is Mrs. Ravena's only daughter. She's already first in line to inherit everything. Why would she need to grab anything?"Gorton burst out laughing. "If Mrs. Ravena really wanted Mrs. Yach to take over the Rofey family, she wouldn't have skipped her and left the inheritance to Kronos in the first place."Sadie said calmly, "But Mrs. Ravena never said Mrs. Yach couldn't inherit the Rofey family."Gorton squinted his eyes. "

Gorton was just as confused as everyone else.He, like the rest, was sure SAM was going to be scooped up by Azure Cloud Group.Azure Cloud Group had 35%, and Kronos had 31%—that was the difference! Kronos could not get their hands on any more shares, not the ones floating around in the market or those held by other SAM shareholders.The biggest thing was, Shawn had gotten into a car crash. Was he even still around to pull off such a stunt?How on earth did SAM end up with Rofey Group? Why did none of the Rofey Group shareholders know about such a huge deal? Was someone keeping it a secret?With Kronos in the hospital, who else could be behind that huge move? Who?The turn of events caught Gorton by complete surprise, and he just could not wrap his head around it. "Something's fishy here. What on earth did you guys do?!"Sadie replied, "Regardless of what the head of the family did, it's a fact that SAM joined Rofey Group, and it's a good thing for SAM. Why aren't you happy about

The heavy tension made everyone freeze, and the room was so quiet they could hear a pin drop.Gordon was propped up, but his face was still pale as a ghost.Just when one problem seemed to end, another popped up. He had not sorted out SAM, and then Shawn had 'risen from the ashes,' blowing all his plans to smithereens. He even felt like Shawn had played him for a fool!In a flash, a wave of shock, anger, and frustration hit him hard. He just could not swallow the bitter pill of defeat. He marched right up to Shawn and blurted out, "Kronos, what in the world did you do?"How on earth did he take over SAM? How did he get out of that ambush without a scratch? How did he survive a car explosion like it was nothing?Sadie stepped in with a warning tone, "Mr. Gorton, you shouldn't talk to the family head like that."Gorton might have been older, but Shawn was the boss of the Rofey family. He had to show respect, or else Shawn could lay down the law!When things looked like they were g

Hilary was as dazzling as ever in her diamond-studded dress that sparkled in the light, which made her look stunningly beautiful. She took such good care of herself that she seemed to be only 40. When she stood with Shawn, one might mistake them for brother and sister.Shawn had his mother's looks, with both of them sharing a certain resemblance. However, Hilary's eyes had a special twinkle, and she still carried an air of allure.She pointed straight at Gorton and accused, "That's the man! He's the one who orchestrated everything!"The police approached Gorton and said, "Mr. Gorton, on the 26th of this month, last Saturday, there was a brutal attack in the Danube Woods. Six gunmen shot at Mr. Shawn Stewart. The evidence we have links you directly to these gunmen. Please come with us to the station."Gorton was in a panic as he protested, "I'm innocent! I didn't do anything like that!"However, the police handcuffed him on the spot, saying, "One of the gunmen has already confess

Harper's kisses were always teasing, intentionally awakening her senses.Their tongues tangled, taking her breath away. When she felt like she could not breathe and instinctively grabbed at his shirt, Harper let go and kissed his way down to her chin, neck, and chest.She could not resist him.Shelby was torn. She did not have to hold back her body's needs and reactions, especially since they could not end their marriage just yet. He was her husband, after all, so why should she deny herself? She decided to make the most of it.Men could easily separate love from physical desire, and women could too. Shelby did not think that accepting Harper's touches meant she liked him. It was just about meeting a need.She would just get that over with.Shelby's fingers gripped the sheets tightly as Harper kissed her growing belly. She was six months along, and her belly was a little bigger. The thought of their child made his heart melt, and he kissed her several more times before suddenly s

Shelby made a sound of agreement, her back sore from sitting too long. She leaned back against Harper without much thought. She was busy with her work and not in the mood for conversation.Harper quickly got the gist of the case file. In short, it was a classic example of someone facing the consequences of their own actions.In the western part of Starville, there was a middle school and a vocational school. The two schools were just a street apart. Not all, but at least 80% of the vocational school students were troublemakers.One of those students, Yered, often rounded up his gang to shake down the middle school kids for their money.Since last year, the bullies had been targeting Steven Scott, a middle schooler. They would often demand money from him. Steven was shy and scared, so he never stood up to them and just handed over the cash.However, this time, as he was walking with a girl from his class, the bullies blocked their path again. They started to pick on the girl becaus

Samantha was really happy. She lifted her finger elegantly and said softly, "One step at a time. First, we'll make sure the child is gone. Then, we'll push them to divorce, and in the end, when she's weak from losing the baby, we'll take care of her." If Shelby died as Harper's wife, then Harper would get everything, and that would be bad. The two women agreed. While reclining on their bamboo chairs, they started dreaming about their perfect future—one with the Young family and the other with all the money. Since the foot masseuse could not hear or speak, they talked freely, not worried about anyone overhearing them. After the massage, they even went to eat together. The masseuse quietly cleaned up and tidied the room. Then, she headed straight for the lookout point. The resort was in the mountains, with lots of trees and streams. The lookout was up high, with a great view of all the little mountains. It was a beautiful spot that every guest at the hotel made sure to visit.

Adalee was doubtful. "Is it really that serious? Our husband doesn't like that dowdy wife or the eldest son. Even if he's started to favor Harper more because of his marriage to the Lambert family, that still won't affect our children.""Our husband used to leave the company matters to our sons, but now he's handing them over to Harper. Who knows what the future holds?" Samantha said with a hint of malice. "We can't take that risk. We can't let Harper get too much leverage. We can't let him and his child have too great a chance to win."Adalee could see Samantha was desperate and asked anxiously, "What are you thinking of doing? She's a lawyer. She knows the law, and she's the sole heir to the Lambert family."Samantha's eyes suddenly became slits. "That's right, she's the only one who will inherit the Lambert family's fortune. With that kind of money, there are loads of people who want to trick her or get their hands on it. "She's a lawyer, not a superhero. Just wait. I'll make

It was Shelby's first visit to the Youngs' place, and by chance, she walked in on his father's so-called second and third wives being snide to Harper. His dad had not lifted a finger to help. It seemed like this was not a one-off occurrence.Was that the way they always treated him?Harper, taken aback by her blunt question, nearly slammed on the brakes. What?"Me, being pushed around in the family? That's just because I can't be bothered..." Who would waste their time arguing with a bunch of women or stoop so low as to fight with their dad's other women? That would be so embarrassing, right?However, he stopped himself mid-sentence.Because he suddenly realized that by saying that, he was making it sound like he felt bad for being 'picked on' at home.Harper slowed the car down and glanced at Shelby. Her eyebrows were knitted together, and she looked really serious. She was definitely not happy.He almost smiled, but he pushed it back down. He swallowed hard and changed his voi

She faced Samantha, not bothering to argue about inheritance rights. "You still haven't answered my earlier question. What does 'stepmother' mean?"Caught off guard by the sudden shift back to the topic, Samantha was momentarily speechless.Shelby did not wait for her to catch up. She pulled out her phone and quickly tapped the screen."Ah, I see," Shelby remarked, glancing at her phone. "According to this, 'stepmother' used to refer to a concubine in ancient times. That's similar to a servant, isn't it? So, in modern terms, it's like a maid. "Got it now. Would you mind getting me some salad? Thanks."The nerve of her, treating Samantha like a common maid! She had never been so insulted. "You!"Shelby set her phone down and met her gaze. "Since you're so curious, I'll fill you in. In the Lambert family, my word is law. If you're ever curious about me again, just ask me directly. No need to rely on rumors."Samantha bit her lip and looked to Gilbert for support, but he just sat

It was Shelby.Pregnant and in flats, she stood firm with not a hint of weakness about her.Her steady gaze fell on the two women who fancied themselves important, leaving them at a loss for words.Harper paused for just a moment, then quickly got to his feet and hurried over. "Dear!"The Young family's house was bright and airy. Harper's eyes sparkled with the unexpected joy of seeing Shelby, who had said she would not come. His face lit up with a smile.Shelby watched him, amused. She thought he was like their excited Shiba Inu, dashing over at the sight of its owner.Harper reached her side, calling out again, "Dear."Shelby gave a small nod. "Yeah."The guests at the dining table snapped out of their surprise, and Wrenley beamed. "Shelby, you're here."Shelby greeted her parents-in-law, "Mom, Dad."Wrenley hurried over to help her, her actions showing just how much she cherished her daughter-in-law.That was Shelby's first visit to the Young family since her wedding. She

Harper waited until Wrenley had said enough, andthen he spoke up."I just don't get you. Your family's loaded, my grandparents are laidback, and Dad doesn't even like you. Why stick to him? Just divorce him, take half his stuff, go home, and hang out with some young models. "That'd be way better than sticking to a lost cause. You've got no ambition."If it were Shelby, she would have left by then if he had not trapped her by getting her pregnant and holding something over her head. Why couldn't his mom be more like his wife?"In your dreams!"Wrenley, with tears in her eyes, scoffed. "The Young family wasn't always so fancy. I married him, and he promised me the moon. 'A good wife helps me reach my dreams, and I'll pay her back in gold.' And then what? "Once the Young family made it big, he just kept bringing in more women and their kids. How can I accept that? I'll fight him to the end, even if it kills me!"Harper sighed. "You want to fight him, I don't. Shelby and her baby

"An old friend?" Zara questioned. "If an old friend wanted to see me, they should be visiting the cemetery, not here."Only a very few people knew she was still alive.Shawn asked, "Is it a man or a woman?""A young man. He also said something else...""What did he say?"The butler hesitated, then relayed, "He said... The miss tricked him, and now she owes him for it."Zara was speechless.The garden fell silent for a moment, with only the whisper of the summer wind rustling through the flowers.Seconds later, Shawn set aside his tablet and smiled slightly. "Really? That sounds fun. Get him to come in. I'd like to meet him too."Zara had thought it was just a joke, but when the butler led the visitor in, she stood up in astonishment.It was him!...In Parnova, the sun shone brightly.However, in Starville, the weather was turning.The sky had been clear when Harper left home in the morning. However, when he reached the Youngs' place at noon, he saw the sun hidden behind
