“Tell him the truth.
”
Satisfied with his answer, Lucinda reached for the knob and opened the door wide.
She looked straight at Enoch, who was huffing as he sat on the sofa.
“Hello, Mr.
Roberts.
It’s been a while since west saw each other, but your foul temper is still the same.
It’s no wonder that Logan is reluctant to hand the Roberts Group over to you.
His misgivings are well-founded.
”
Her words definitely hit a nerve, and Enoch froze and seethed.
He had always resented the fact that his father never recognized his abilities, and to have itid down in the open by Lucinda, of all people… He was livid.
“I am your elder! How dare you speak to me Like that?”
Lucinda plopped down on the sofa opposite his and sneered.
“It’s true that a respectable elder deserves courtesy, but we both know that doesn’t apply to you.
Respect begets respect, as they say.
”
“You!” Enoch roared furiously.
They were both seated, so they should be in more or less equal footing.
But Lucinda’s calmposure made her appear far superior to Enoch.
Enoch opened his mouth to berate her some more, but then he finally caught sight of the familiar figure standing behind Lucinda.
Wasn’t this Nathaniel, who had been out of the picture for some time now?
“Nathaniel!” he eximed.
“When did you return? You’re here, and yet you allowed this woman to snatch thepany from under your nose?”
“Uncle Enoch,” Nathaniel said with a nk expression.
“I only came back yesterday afternoon.
By that time, it is already toote.
”
“Bullshit!” Enoch mmed his fist on the coffee table.
“Your grandfather gave you forty percent of the total shares.
Besides, you’ve been in charge of the business for years! You’ve never had qualms about wielding your authority over the shareholders.
How can you just stand by and let this woman take your position away?”
Nathaniel didn’t even flinch and was all nonc
hnce as he exined, “Aside from the fifteen percent that you own, she has bought all the other shares.
As it currently stands, she is thergest shareholder of the Roberts Group.
”
“What did you say?” Enoch’s face twisted in confusion.
How could it be? This waspletely different from what Tess had told him.
At that moment, Zaniyah stepped forward and calmly ced some documents on the table.
They were records detailing thepany’s shares.
Enoch grabbed them and pored over them carefully, his face darkening with each second that passed.
He hadn’t even been in Forden as of yesterday.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
With Nathaniel out of the scene, Lucinda was the only one in a position to step in and manage thepany.
But then… Enoch had coveted the position of CEO for so long.
He couldn’t just watch Lucinda, who wasn’t even a Roberts, take it away.
