Chapter 1859
“If I stop managing the company, will you be able to do it? Will you be able to learn the ways of business while studying? No, you won’t be able to manage the company. They’ll offer to help you manage the company.“After you hand over the company to them, do you think they’ll pass it back to you? Even if they do, it’ll end up as a shell company.”After Camryn finished speaking, she said to Callum, “Callum, let’s go.”“Alright.”Callum walked forward with Camryn while holding her thoughtfully. They exited the cafe and soon left Trenton.Trenton did not go after them. He stood still and guiltily watched Camryn leave.After some time, he averted his gaze. He returned to his seat in dejection and sat down. He lifted his cup and took a sip of coffee. Then, he put the cup down. He did not quite enjoy drinking coffee.He touched the part of his face that Camryn slapped. It was hot and probably swollen.Camryn slapped him out of fury.Despite being slapped by Camryn, Trenton did not h
Chapter 1860
Trenton did not conceal the truth. He admitted that Camryn was the one who slapped him. He even questioned Edward whether the latter had the courage to deal with Camryn.Edward choked. He then smiled wryly and said, “Camryn slapped you? Did she come to meet you? For what? Why did she slap you? Tsk. Camryn is really cruel. Half of your face is already swollen.“Trenton, you finally saw your sister’s true colors. She might usually seem nice, but she’s actually cruel despite her blindness. Once she has her eyes treated and her vision is restored, I’m afraid she’ll be crueler and put you in trouble.“Bear in mind that your parents are the cause of her father’s death. She’s probably mad at you because she hates your parents.“Don’t think that she’s treating you well and not turning against you now. That’s because she’s trying to make you drop your guard. When the time comes, she’ll do away with you mercilessly and cause you to lose everything. Perhaps, she might even induce you to commi

Edward did not stop Trenton and let him leave the cafe. After he left, Edward called his mother. When she picked up, he said, “Mom, Trenton is still unconvinced, but he might’ve fought with Camryn. He got slapped by Camryn, and one side of his face is swollen.”Upon hearing that, Mrs. Chandler said smugly, “That means our idea is working. You should pay more attention to Trenton and badmouth Camryn in front of him to ruin their relationship. I refuse to believe that Trenton doesn’t care at all.”Mrs. Chandler and her sister had negotiated with Camryn multiple times, but it did not work. They had always looked down on that niece of theirs as they were closer to Cain and were able to reap more benefits from him. Naturally, they would not treat Camryn well.Once Camryn took over Newman Enterprise, she started targeting the Chandlers and Joyners. Mrs. Chandler utterly despised Camryn. She did not understand how Camryn got so lucky to be blind but was still adored by Callum. They d

Callum held her hand and continued walking. As they walked, he said, “Trenton still cares about you a lot. He’s still young and inexperienced. Don’t take his words too seriously.”“I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t angry or sad,” Camryn said softly. “I care about Trenton the most in that family. I may seem like I have a bad attitude toward him or that I hate him, but I still like this brother of mine a lot in my heart.“He’s different from them. He likes me from the bottom of his heart and truly sees me as his sister. Ever since he started remembering things, he would protect and help me. Whenever Mom hit or scolded me, he would always rush over to push her away and stop her from beating me. “My mom thought Trenton was only so protective of me because I coaxed him into doing so. After that, she stopped me from interacting with him and used every way possible to prevent Trenton and me from spending time together. However, since we lived in the same house, Trenton had always defended m

Callum said gently, “Trenton regrets what he said too. Give him some time, Camryn. He’ll grow up and start to understand you.”Trenton’s parents and sister had gone to jail partly because of Camryn. It was normal for him to find it difficult to accept the truth. After all, he was only seventeen years old. He had not been weathered by society and was not capable of processing so much shock.Camryn did not say a word. Callum accompanied her on a stroll around the garden. Camryn’s mood improved greatly as they walked on the shaded path with the cool breeze caressing them and listened to the passers-by chatting. She felt upset but did not harbor resentment toward her brother. She did not even want to clear up her brother’s misunderstanding and complaint. When suspicion arose and one was devoid of trust in a person, one would not believe the words of another, no matter how much explanation was given. That would be the case unless one was shown effort and their promise was fulfille
Chapter 1864
Hayden would be elegant and magnificent because she had already built a cold character. Hugh took the elevator to the top floor. After walking out of the elevator and spotting Hayden’s secretary, he whistled. When the secretary turned to look at him, he smiled and greeted the secretary. “Is my brother in the office?” Hugh asked the secretary. The secretary said politely, “Mr. Hayden is in the office. Did you make a call to inform him beforehand, Mr. Hugh?”As they talked, the secretary had already gotten up from the desk and walked to Hugh. If Hugh were to say that he did not inform Hayden beforehand, the secretary would block him outside the office and not allow him to disturb Hayden from his work. “I’m my brother’s biological brother. I can look for him whenever I want. Do I even need to make a call beforehand?”Hugh was pulled back by the secretary just after speaking. “Mr. Hugh, if you didn’t call Mr. Hayden to tell him you’re coming beforehand, please don’t enter the

Hayden raised her head and glared at her brother. Her smile disappeared, and she reached out her hand toward him. “Give it to me.”Hugh quickly passed the document to his sister. “Sis.”Hugh called her. Hayden glared at him again. He stuck his tongue out and changed his way of addressing her. “Bro.”Hugh could not call Hayden his sister in the company. Hayden had been dressing as a man for more than twenty years. Even if her secret were to be exposed in the future, Hugh could not be the one to reveal it. Otherwise, his sister would beat him up. They learned self-defense together. He was not as good at it as his sister was and could never reach her level. Hayden was only born ten minutes earlier than Hugh, but he felt like she had been delivered ten years earlier. “Kevin didn’t lie to you. He was urged to marry by his family. They had been so desperate that he used a business trip as an excuse to escape to Jensburg.”Hugh sounded gleeful. Hayden took out the informatio
Chapter 1866
Hugh knew that Queen Enterprise and York Corporation would not be rivals. They would have some conflict in the food and beverage sector at most. Therefore, they would attend Zachary’s wedding. “Old Mrs. York had chosen a few candidates for Kevin. I heard he disliked them a lot and put up a lot of resistance. A target had been given to him at the start of the year, but he didn’t even pursue that lady. After Callum got engaged, Kevin was scolded by his family and urged to get married soon. He only escaped to Jensburg because he could not stand his family’s nagging.“Since it’s far, his family can’t possibly come to Jensburg to urge him to get married.”After that, Hugh added, “This must be why he bought a house in Jensburg. He plans to stay in Jensburg long-term and uses it as an excuse to escape people nagging him about marriage.”Hayden raised her head and looked at her brother. She asked, “Do you know whose daughter Grandma May picked for Kevin? He’s opposing it so strongly.”
