A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 399

Noel was attending the charity ball too, but as board chairwoman of Sachs Enterprises.

Sachs Enterprises would never make the list of the Stuarts' grandest annual charity ball, and it was Jessica who personally extended an invitation to Noel. Jessica said that since they were partners, she should give Noel more opportunities if it was within her abilities.

Noel was beside herself with joy, and went out of her way to brag in front of her family. After all, she was no longer staying at the family's mansion, having bought herself another that was much grander than theirs.

Still, Sue met her in private. She appeared to be happy for Noel, saying that she and Noel could finally hold their own in the Sachs family. She also added that Plum had been kept miserably in house arrest at the mansion by Simon himself.

Despite all her fawning, it was clear Sue wanted to win Noel over and take a cut of the Sachs's family estate. However, Noel was no pushover. She grew up watching Sue, and knew very well what Sue was scheming-once Sue earned Noel’s favor, she would slowly siphon off the shares on Sachs Enterprises that Noel owned until everything was returned to Sonny Sachs.

Noel naturally didn't humor Sue, and had the latter thrown out even as she promptly dropped all disguises, screaming and cursing Noel.

No one would take even a single percentage of her shares!
