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

At present, she was Yoeger Group's biggest shareholder.

Samuel told Tyson to take the two lawyers to the adjacent room for a break.

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

Frances stared at him in disbelief.
