The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Antoney said, "The original shares were set aside long before you were born. When your mentor left the Williams family, that ten percent was put under lock and key.

He told me that back then, when he helped your father hold the company together, he sealed the original shares for thirty years to prevent any infighting.

At the end of this year, the restriction will be lifted.

When that happens, a lawyer will reach out to you to discuss the share transfer."

Lately, Antoney had been diving into the world of business. The things that once confused him were now starting to make sense.

He'd originally planned to tell Stella about this after her concert, but the deeper he got into his studies, the more he realized this was something Stella needed to know as soon as possible.

What if Mr. Williams and his son tried to trick Stella into signing away her rights? He couldn't risk it.

Seeing Stella lost in thought, Antoney gently asked, "Star, what do you think about all this?"

Stella replied without hesitation, "If it's something my mother left for me alone, there's no way I'd ever give it up."

Relief washed over Antoney. "I was worried you might give up your shares for your music career."

Stella laughed. "Do I really seem that naive to you?"
