Chapter 533 What Are Your Intentions This Time?

Eleanor watched Casey walk away and tried to calm Philip, who was seething with anger. “Oh, don’t be so upset. It’s not worth getting yourself all worked up.”

“Casey has really pushed me to the edge. I never thought she would turn out like this. Can I even count on her to take care of me in my old age? It’s like she’s eagerly waiting for me to die so she can inherit the family wealth,” Philip fumed, a mixture of disappointment welling up within him.

He had never laid a hand on his daughter before, but in a fit of rage, he had slapped her. It hurt him more than it hurt her.

“Ever since her mother passed away, Casey has harbored resentment toward you, believing that you were the cause of her mother’s death. You know this, and even our son Peter doesn’t sit well with her. I’m genuinely afraid that she might target Peter in the future. That’s why I wanted to find her a suitable partner so she could start a family of her own. Once she becomes a parent, she might understand our perspective,” Eleanor said, feigning concern, appearing concerned for her son’s future.

However, her primary goal was still to regain half of the company’s shares that Casey held. Philip’s health was deteriorating, and if something were to happen to him, Casey would have the authority to kick her and Peter out of the family.

Philip looked at her with a sigh. “I wish she could understand your good intentions. She’s grown up but still so immature. I wonder when she’ll finally grow up.”

“Could you consider transferring some shares to Peter’s name, dear? That way, he would have the right to challenge his sister in the future. I’m genuinely worried that one day, they’ll turn against each other, and Casey might not even acknowledge Peter,” Eleanor pleaded.

“It’s not urgent, and it’s not solely my decision. The company was founded by Casey’s mother and me. We had an agreement that ownership couldn’t be transferred unless it was to Casey,” Philip explained. He also didn’t see that his younger son, Peter, who was just an eight-year-old boy now, would have the immediate need for such arrangements.

Eleanor’s resentment deepened further upon facing another rejection. She knew she had to find a way

to deal with Casey; otherwise, her and her son’s future in the Carter Family would
