"You don't need to talk to her. I asked you here to ask..." Timothy deliberately paused for a few seconds. His gaze shifted towards Charlotte and continued, "If the shares were to be turned into money, how would that be done?"

"Well, this..."

"What do you mean? What does this have to do with me?" Charlotte walked forward coldly. Since she was the only one standing, she looked even more intimidating.

"Transfer your 10% of shares under my name."

Timothy didn't feel an ounce of guilt for his words but he quickly averted his gaze when he saw the look of disbelief on Charlotte's face.

"Do you not feel guilty at all for your own words?"

Charlotte's body trembled with despair.

"I'll pay you to transfer the shares under my name. Isn't that the same?"

"Lottie, it's all the same. Take the money and give the share to your father. We are a family, why do you want to make such a fuss?" Elaine, who was standing by the stairway, suddenly spoke up. She swayed her hips as she walked down the stairs towards Timothy.

"Shut up."

Charlotte was so angry, she roared at Elaine. Her mouth curved into a bitter smile.

"Timothy Emerson, do you hate me so much? You just can't wait to throw me out of the Emerson house?"

Charlotte held back the tears that were welling up in her eyes.

"I'm doing this for your own good."

"For my own good? It's for your own selfish reasons."

Charlotte yelled at Timothy without any hesitation.

"Timothy, look at her..." Elaine, who was sitting on Timothy's lap, suddenly straightened up and whispered to him like a spoiled child.

"Charlotte Emerson!" Timothy turned away from her miserable sight intentionally. "Don't blame me for being heartless if you don't transfer the shares to me." What else do you want?" Charlotte asked Timothy scornfully.

Mr. Jones, who had been ignored the whole time feigned a cough and tried to advise him, "Mr. Emerson, if the both of you haven't made up your minds, I'd better..."

"I'll disown you!"

He threatened coldly as he suddenly thought of what Elaine said in the evening.
