Chapter 1632
"You have been given more shares than our father..." Spencer and Samuel were so surprised that they started to
tell Nicole things she was not aware of.
Hearing that, a headache began to set in for Nicole. 'Why did you give me so many unwarranted shares? I'm not
short on cash. This is drawing so much unwanted attention to myself! I
Deep down, she wanted to reach out by signaling to Mr. Riddle Sr. that she had something to say to him, but
unfortunately for her, he seemed to have known her thoughts, and so, he added, "However, since she's still in
school, so she will not be participating in the company affairs for the time being. As for now, all company affairs will
be managed by Daniel and Sean. She'll join us once she reaches 20 years of age."
Nicole could not even muster up a single word to voice her refusal.
Mr. Riddle Sr. understood very well that he had not given Nicole any chance to decline, and once again, the crowd
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇterupted into thunderous applause. As for Daniel, he had never experienced such a moment before. It was the truly
peak of his entire career.
Daniel helped Mr. Riddle Sr. down the stage, his face beaming with uncontrollable joy as he felt a little dizzy.
After the announcement, the energy that was supposed to die down was ignited once more. Both Sean and Stanley
were surrounded by guests handing their business cards to them. Meanwhile, Daniel was helping Mr. Riddle Sr. over
to Nicole.
Nicole looked at him and said in a low voice, "Grandpa, why didn't you discuss it with me beforehand? Why did you
announce that you would give me the shares?"
Indeed, Nicole had too many things on her plate, and would have no time to deal with company affairs.
In response, Mr. Riddle Sr. smiled. "If I had told you in advance, would you have accepted it?"
Nicole was rendered speechless upon hearing this.
"Right, so I could only resort to doing this. I'm getting old and these shares, sooner or later will be split between all
of you guys," he said.
Nicole then took a deep breath. "But because you've given me so many shares, others may have other ideas."
Knowing who Nicole was talking about at an instant, the old man's face darkened and he deliberately raised his
voice as he said, "Compare the state of the company in the past ten years and the state of it now. Anyone could tell
who is more suited to manage the company. This matter cannot be discussed by others as I have already decided!"
Damien and Dillon, who were not far away, overheard this, and as soon as they did, they quickly lost the courage to
ask
why. It was because of their management of the company over the past ten years that the Riddle Family continued
to decline in power and reputation. As such, they could only blame themselves and their incompetence.
Unable to take it anymore, Damien shouted, "Let's go!"
Naturally, Miley trailed behind him and left. Dillon was also livid, but he did not have the nerve to leave.
On the other hand, Karen was unable to deal with the humiliation anymore, and proceeded to pull Dillon along with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmher, saying, "Damien had already left. What are you still doing, standing here? Do you want to continue to
embarrass yourself?"
Without waiting for Dillon to respond, she immediately dragged him away. Mr. Riddle Sr. shook his head as he
watched the two families' departure.
Tve given the both of them ten years' worth of opportunities and none of them had taken it. Now, the only person I
could trust is Daniel,' he thought.
"I'm tired. I'll leave the banquet in your hands now. I'll be going back to the Riddle residence." Mr. Riddle Sr. shot
Daniel a glance.
"Got it." Daniel hurriedly nodded, after which he sent Mr. Riddle Sr. off.
"I'm tired too, let's leave together." Mr. Johnston Sr. suddenly appeared, wanting to leave the banquet together with
Mr. Riddle Sr.
Nicole looked at Jared. "Go send your grandpa off."
"Okay." Jared nodded, whereupon he helped his grandfather and Mr. Riddle Sr. out the venue. Though the two of
them had left, people spared no time to seize every drop of alcohol.
Nicole, who was also a little tired, decided to go to the bathroom before leaving. However, she did not notice that
someone was following her as she was on her way out.
