The entire process took place smoothly, and Kathleen received the thirty percent shares owned by Frances.

Frances regarded Samuel unhappily. "When do you plan to marry Nicolette, Mr. Macari?"

Samuel could never, ever let Frances become his biggest obstacle.

"How heartless of you to make such a casual remark, Mr. Macari," Frances muttered coldly.

Samuel remained silent at first.

Frances stared at him in disbelief.
