Ava pushed the door open and called her softly, “Thea, Jewel has arrived.”
Thea mustered all her energy and said, “Let her in.”
She had a deep connection with the Fletcher family and couldn't avoid them. It would be better to meet her
openly. However, it was unknown whether Jewel cto see her for personal emotions or for business matters.
Ava turned around and left.
Not long after, Ava brought Jewel into Theo's study and said, “Ms. Thea, please cin.”
Ava stood at the door and gestured for Jewel to go in.
Jewel stood at the doorway, first peering into the room. Everywhere there were traces of Theo, Theo's calligraphy
hanging on the walls, Theo's stunning photographs displayed on the desk. There was also the style of mahogany
furniture, emitting a woody fragrance. It was as if there was always a faint woody scent lingering on Theo.
Thea sat in the spot where Theo used to sit, gazing steadily at Jewel.
Jewel surveyed the room and walked in with a gloomy expression.
She sat directly in the chair opposite Thea, crossing her legs and then lighting a cigarette for herself. She took a

and blew out smoke rings before finally looking Thea in the
eye.
“You actually lost him.” Jewel’s tone was filled with strong condemnation.
Thea knew that for a long period of time, Jewel had also been madly in love with Theo. Theo’s death should have
saddened Jewel as well.
Thea whispered, “I'm sorry.” She said this “I'm sorry” to Theo, right?
Jewel sneered, “What's the point of saying sorry now?”

Thea sniffed and asked, “What are you here for?”
Jewel said, “Can’t you see? | cto hold Theo accountable.”
Thea had a cold face and said, “You were not qualified.”
She felt guilty towards Theo, but she also actively practiced Theo's expectations of her.
Love yourself and never let anyone bring you down.
Jewel's beautiful face contorted into a grimace as she said, “It was his poor judgment. Clearly, you are nowhere
near as good. as me, yet he chose you. You're just relying on the fact that you saved his life when he was a
child.”
Thea's face turned pale.
She was not a person who sought to repay kindness, so if Theo was truly only showing such deep affection
towards her because of her life-saving favor, she would feel ashamed.

Jewel, however, suddenly let her go, “Forget it. You are the person he cares about the most. Even if it's for his
sake, | won't give you a hard time.”
She cleared her throat and said, “I chere today to deliver a message to you. Tomorrow is the shareholders’
meeting of the Fletcher family, and as one of the heirs of the Fletcher family, you must attend.”
Thea was still immersed in Theo's grief, and she said with a low mood, “I knew.”
Jewel looked at her disdainfully and said, “Thea, don’t blme for not reminding you. The shareholders at
tomorrow's meeting are all senior figures of the Fletcher Group. Their impression of you will determine whether
you can establish a foothold in the Fletcher Group.”
She scrutinized Thea from head to toe with a critical gaze and shook her head disapprovingly, “With your
delicate and weak appearance, you are not cut out for business. Why don’t you transfer your shares to me? I'll
give you a sum of money that will ensure you a lifetof security. How about it?”
Thea coldly stared at her and said, “This was your purpose coming today, right?”
A trace of panic flew across Jewel's face, “What... are you saying?”

Thea said, “Ms. Thea is indeed a well-bred lady who has been immersed in the business world since childhood.
You know very well how to undermine the enemy’s will and seek maximum benefits for yourself.”
Jewel said, “What do you mean? | don’t understand.”

Thea said, “First, she pretended to have deep feelings for Theo, trying to gain my sympathy. Then she belittled
me, makingunderestimate myself. And then she offereda huge sum of money as a temptation. Isn't this
whole schjust to makegive up and transfer my shares of the Fletcher Group that belong toto you?”
“You are judging a gentleman’s heart with the mind of a villain,” Jewel said, blushing.
Thea chuckled lightly and said, “Hmph, even if | were to sell my shares, | wouldn't sell them to you. Instead, |
would sell them to Raymond.”
Jewel was stunned.
Raymond, was her most feared opponent. Over the years, with his intelligence and wit, Raymond gradually
acquired the shares of other shareholders, and the shares he held were almost on par with the Fletcher family.
Kyler’'s father was worried that Raymond would take advantage of Thea first, so he sent Jewel on this trip.
Jewel didn’t understand how Thea knew that Raymond was their most feared opponent, since she had never
entered the Fletcher Group before.
Thea saw the varied and colorful expressions on Jewel's face. She proudly said, “Ms. Thea, go back and tell your
grandfather. We should coexist peacefully and engage in fair and honorable battles based on true abilities. If
there is deceit and the loss of the warmth of family ties, then don’t blme for not considering blood relations
and helping outsiders seize his power.”

“What? She said she wants to sell her shares to Raymond?” Kyler’s father exclaimed, shocked, scared, and angry.
He slumped on the couch, thinking, “Originally, | thought that after Theo was eliminated, she, a mere woman,
would not be a threat. Who would have known that she could actually find the weak spot of the Fletcher family?”
Kyler was extremely anxious, “Dad, if Thea sells her shares to Raymond, then Raymond will have more shares
than us and becthe largest shareholder in the company. At that time, the Fletcher Group will have to change
its nto the Commercial Group.”
Kyler’'s father was troubled, “What worriesnow is how she found out, is Raymond our biggest threat?”
Kyler’s face turned pale, “Could it be that Thea has already gotten involved with the higher-ups within the
company?”
Kyler’s father’s eyes flashed with a sinister light as he said, “No matter what, we must make her look bad at
tomorrow's meeting. Let her have no face to stay in the Fletcher Group. If she wants to sell her shares, we will
find a way to snatch them at a high price. The highest bidder wins, Thea won't be foolish enough to refuse
money.”
Kyler’'s father made a metaphysical mistake by trying to judge Thea using the cutthroat rules of the marketplace.
However, Thea’s character fundamentally does not align with the profit- driven principles of the business world.

The next day.
After Thea got up, she received a call from Jewel.
“Grandfather asked you to give a presentation today. Several shareholders expressed their desire to see if you
were capable enough for your position.”
Thea exclaimed tically, “Job report? Is he deliberately trying to make things difficult for me? How am |
supposed to do a good job report in such a short amount of time?”
“That was your business,” Jewel coldly hung up the phone.
Thea, however, fell into a state of nervous anxiety.
She was worried about her makeup for a moment. “Ava, you have to do my makeup well today. Today's makeup
must have a strong presence. And wear a suit today.”
Ava responded positively, “Okay. Sister.”
She was worried that her manners were not elegant enough, so she kept practicing her posture in the room.
