Forbidden Passion

Chapter 581 He Really Cares About You

The news about Brandon tossing 1% of the shares to Marlowe and Bishop didn't slip past Theodore. When Lawton spilled the beans, Theodore just smirked. "Dad still can't stand to see them suffer, huh?"

Last night, Brandon was all tough on Marlowe and Bishop in front of everyone, but then he turned around and handed them shares to smooth things over. Trying to play both sides, he ended up ticking off everyone. Lawton stood there, not sure what Theodore was thinking, barely daring to breathe.

"How's Mr. Douglas' prep going?" Theodore's eyes were full of anger. After Bishop tried to mess with Phoebe, almost getting her hurt by Jimmy, it was war between him and Bishop.

Later, Bishop nearly got him and Phoebe killed in Starfall City. No way was he letting that slide. For months, Bishop had been trying to snatch up shares of the Reynolds Group. Now, with the 1% Brandon gave him, Bishop had at least 5% of the Reynolds Group's shares, giving him a say in big decisions.

How could Theodore possibly be willing to be held back by him?

Since Bishop was so wild and kept poking the bear, Theodore was gonna make sure Bishop lost everything and got booted out of Kedora, never to be a problem again. Lawton said, "Mr. Douglas said the plan could be shut down anytime."

Theodore tapped his chair arm, eyes dark. "Tell him to wrap it up in a few days."

Lawton couldn't help but enjoy the thought of Bishop's downfall.

Phoebe handed the signed papers to Carol to distribute, only to see her glued to her phone, looking freaked out and excited.

Phoebe asked, "What's got you so worked up?"

Carol, caught red-handed, dropped her phone. Luckily, it didn't break, or she'd be out a new one.
