"Yes, I warned her about that at the time, too. By doing so, she is giving up and losing a lot."
Mr. Baldwin raised his hand to hold down the gold-rimmed frame of his glasses and continued, "But Mr. Warner was quite straightforward, and she said she knew exactly what she was doing. She never wanted a penny from the Warner family, and the reason she was willing to inherit the shares was because she believed that Ms. Stephanie, before she died, must have fought hard to transfer the shares to her, and she must have a reason for that.”
“She felt it was a last task for her from Ms. Stephanie and she must live up to Ms. Stephanie's expectations. That's all."
Jacqueline listened and fell silent.
How vicious one could be was beyond her imagination, and Charlotte showed her.
How good one could be was also beyond her imagination, and Joyce showed her.
Luther turned his face away. No one could see the expression on his face, and they could only see that his fingers holding the agreement were trembling slightly.
Mr. Baldwin cleared his throat again and continued, "The second additional condition is that, during the time she was holding the shares, all the proceeds obtained from the shares should all be donated to the orphanage to support various charitable activities."
"Not a penny to spare."
Mr. Baldwin put extra emphasis on it.
"The third additional condition is the most important part of what I'm going to say today, and the reason why I must rush to the hospital.”
“Mr. Warner made it very clear in the agreement.”
“In the event of her death, if she and Mr. Warner are divorced, the shares should be returned in full to Mr. Warner.”
“If she simply disappears and she and Mr. Warner are divorced, the shares should be held by Mr. Warner until Stephanie’s case is resolved, and after that, the shares should automatically be returned to Mr. Warner.”
“Due to the current situation of Mrs. Warner, I must take this agreement out and also ask Mr. Warner to finalize it."
After Mr. Baldwin finished, he paused for a long time, leaving them enough time to digest the information.
In the VIP ward, a long silence fell.
It was so quiet that even the sound of their breathing was clearly audible.
