Kern had just finished putting the whip and the box away.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    He hurriedly took the document from her and handed it to Norton.


    The old man looked a Little baffled at first.


    He gingerly put his sses on and peered at the piece of paper.


    As soon as he read the words, his head jerked up, his eyes wide with surprise.


    “You’re pregnant? And with twins?”


    Unable to contain his excitement, Norton let out a loud rumble ofughter.


    His anger from earlier was reced with delighted glee.


    He was going to have two great-grandchildren!


    “Mr.


    Nathan certainly did so good a job!” Kern remarked.


    “In just a few months, two little angels will be gracing this family!”


    “Congrattions!” the other elders chimed in, all smiles.


    “You are so lucky! We can’t wait to wee the babies to the family!”


    “Congrattions!” Jeff said.


    “This piece of mews is worth celebrating, is it not? Why don’t let Nathan off this time?”


    Norton was only too happy to oblige.


    He nodded at Nathan with approval.


    “Well, for the sake of my great-grandchildren, I suppose—”


    “Grandpa!” Ronan interrupted immediately.


    He couldn’t let Nathan off without getting his punishment.


    “Miss Simmons’ pregnancy is indeed something worth celebrating, but it has nothing to do with the matter at hand! So, Nathan gave her all his shares because she got pregnant? And what? If she gives birth, will he give her the rest of the family assets, too?”


    Ronan took on a serious tone as he added, “Remember, the shares weren’t given to the babies.


    but Lucinda herself! Who’s to say that she won’t hand the shares over to the Simmons family and go back to them in the future?”


    Just like that, the atmosphere grew tense again.


    Lucinda herself stiffened up when she heard Ronan’s words.


    How ironic the truth was!


    Now, except for N&L Fairy Land, she didn’t have any other home to return to.


    Noticing the shift in her mood, Nathan put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her close.


    Lucinda collected herself.


    She needed to address the matter of the shares at the moment.


    The rest couldeter.


    “As a matter of fact, Grandpa Norton, I came here with the intent to discuss this matter with you.


    Nate gave me all his shares and stubbornly refuses to take them back.


    Even though I can’t return them, I can certainly decide on how to distribute them.


    I want to have a written statement in ce.


    Once the twins are born, the shares that Nate gave to me will be divided equally between them.


    ”


    The babies were members of the Payne family.


    This way, the shares would still remain within the fold.
