Chapter 238: She Carried My Child

At the Foley Group’s top floor conference room, Chris suddenly informed Kelvin that Cody’s ten percent share had been transferred to someone else. That person was Abbie, whom he knew.

Upon hearing this news, Kelvin felt like she was joking around. She was in bad health, and shouldn’t get involved in company business.

Chris rubbed his strong chin and thought that this could be a good thing from a certain perspective.

Cody had previously used his shares and experience in the company to call himself an elder and go against Mr. Foley behind his back. He even formed cliques privately, seriously affecting the company’s atmosphere. Mr. Foley didn’t deal with him at first to give him a chance while hoping he would change his ways.

Who knew that Cody’s greed would only grow stronger as he instigated other shareholders to oppose Kelvin’s iron-fisted rule? He left during the meeting in front of everyone.

Kelvin wanted to suppress him but then heard this news; he couldn’t help but pause for a second. He had thought about helping Abbie regain her shares, but after all, it was a matter for the Berry family. Moreover, in the past few years, she hadn’t shown much interest in it, and Kelvin, concerned about her health, had refrained from bringing it up again.

He hadn’t expected that the gentle and timid Abbie could actually retrieve the shares from Cody. This surprised Kelvin; he underestimated Abbie.

“Given what has happened now, we need to hold a meeting with all shareholders present and explain what happened,” said Kelvin as he looked down at his watch on his wrist.

It was already half-past eight, and he hadn’t slept a wink last night. His mind was filled with Cheyenne’s heart-wrenching words delivered with a quivering voice.

When they first talked about divorce, it was because he no longer wanted anything more than seeing her face.

He didn’t believe Cheyenne would obediently listen if asked for divorce since according to her personality she might do many things just trying hard to please him.
