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?"

 

Samuel kept quiet.

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.

Then, he cleared his throat and spoke. "Old Mrs. Yoeger, previously, I mistook Nicolette for my savior, and I'm very sorry about this. I didn't know it was Kate who saved me back then."

Samuel spoke in a low voice. "You can rest assured that I won't bother her, Old Mrs. Yoeger."

Frances stared at him in disbelief.

I've known you since you were a child, and I understand your character very well," she said in an icy tone. "You're the kind of person who doesn't stop until you've achieved your goals. You say you'll stop bothering Kate, but secretly, you'll
