Jade’s rudeness made Floyd’s face darken.
Nicole twitched the corner of her mouth indifferently.
“The shares of Stanton Corporation belong to the Stanton family. Back then, Uncle Noah signed his shares over to the company so that he would only enjoy the dividends. Now that he has left the company, he will not be able to enjoy the dividends. Aunt Jade, your plan has failed. These shares aren’t part of your property division. Even if they are to be divided, the interests of the company come first.”
Jade’s complexion was dull.
“Then what should I do? If he goes to jail, how will I survive? I don’t care! Those shares must be given to me! Otherwise, I won’t rest!”
Jade sat there looking like a rogue, as if she was determined to get the shares.
Floyd’s face was gloomy, and he glanced at Jade with a complicated look.
“You should go back and wait for the police and the company’s notice. Noah stole hundreds of millions of dollars from the company. The company is nice enough not to chase you for the money owed, yet you demand for the shares? I’m not Noah, so I don’t care how you will survive. We don’t have time to watch your act.”
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the butler.
“Please see her out.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
Before the butler could speak, Jade became a little anxious and stood up furiously.
“Big Brother, you can’t say that! Noah is your younger brother. You add insult to injury when he’s in trouble. If I tell the media about this, I’m afraid they will also be very interested in this matter!”
Floyd’s face was stiff. His eyes froze instantly, and his breathing deepened.
There seemed to be a dead silence in the air.
Hah! This was a blatant threat.
Nicole suddenly felt that although Jade’s old habits had not changed, she had somehow improved.
However, they could not compromise because if they gave her a smidge, she would ask for more.
Jade was like a bottomless pit that could never be filled.
Nicole spoke from the side.
“Go ahead and tell the media. We can still afford the money for suppressing trending topics. Aunt Jade, who are you trying to threaten? You’re so old, yet you still want to rely on others to survive. Uncle Noah must have left a lot of money for you, but you don’t even appreciate it. Come at us with everything you have, Aunt Jade. You should know that we have been supporting Uncle Noah because he’s our relative, but it’s not our duty to do so. Don’t think that you’re in his position. Our family doesn’t support idlers.”
Nicole’s words to Jade were ruthless.
“I’m your second uncle’s wife. How am I an idler? It’s only fair for me to inherit his property. Nicole, why are you speaking so harshly? Do you think I have no other way?”
Jade glared at Nicole aggressively.
Just as Nicole was about to speak, Clayton squeezed Nicole’s hand and looked at Jade with a half-smile.
“Since you know what Noah has done, you should know that you aren’t the only one with inheritance rights, huh?”
Jade’s expression changed slightly.
Her breathing paused.
Clayton smiled. “You should go back. We will find a way to help you so that you won’t be starving for the rest of your life.”
Starving?
Now, even the most ordinary migrant workers would not starve to death.
Jade’s chest was stuffy.
She was so anxious that she neglected the most important thing.
Noah’s biological daughter was not dead.
Jade glanced at Floyd with a dark gaze. Finally, she restrained her emotions and said goodbye with a fake smile.
“Big Brother, you should think about it carefully. After all, I am Noah’s only wife. You shouldn’t be so indifferent to your relatives. It won’t be good when we drag each other down, right?”
After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.
