A Wife's Worth in Shares Chapter 9 Let Them Settle Their Own Debts
Natasha's words hung in the air, and Derrick didn't look at me again.The lawyer quickly steered the discussion toward Farrel Food Inc.'s early client negotiations and its unauthorized transfer of company materials.This time, Derrick handed over another stack of emails himself. They included records of Natasha negotiating with clients behind the company's back, as well as evidence that she had planned to move the team out before the financing was even completed."Were these also part of your internal arrangements?"She immediately pressed her hand down on the documents. "Derrick, are you seriously turning on me now?""Investigate whatever needs investigating, including me," came his reply."Who was the one going out drinking for you all these years? Who went with you to every financing meeting? But here you are, using me as a scapegoat now that Lydia doesn't want you anymore?""You think doing all that gives you the right to take her property and start a new company?""Those w
A Wife's Worth in Shares Chapter 8 Eight Years of Unpaid Promises
Derrick came to see me three days after the divorce agreement was sent to the company.The studio was swamped that day. He sat at the entrance and waited more than 20 minutes, never attempting to rush me. Only after everyone had left did he set the agreement on the corner of my desk."Can we please not get divorced?"For the first time, there was no mention of the company, the financing, or the shares.I finished recording the last set of data before replying curtly, "No.""Your name has been restored to the product records.""This isn't about the credit.""I've dealt with Natasha, too—""It's not about her either."He finally asked, "Then, what is it?"I opened a drawer and took out an old photograph.It was taken when our first store made its first big profit.On the back, I had written, "When we make our first $100,000, I'll finally pay myself a salary too."Derrick turned the photograph over twice. "Did you never get paid after that?""No.""Why didn't you say anythi
A Wife's Worth in Shares Chapter 7 The Things He Took for Granted
Natasha switched suppliers the very next day.She'd announced at the meeting, "A mature company shouldn't depend on one person's experience for its most critical operations."The new supplier's prices were 20% lower. However, customer complaints had quadrupled within a week of launching the first batch of their product. Still, what truly worried Derrick wasn't the bad reviews. Instead, a longtime supplier, who had worked with the company for eight long years, suddenly canceled their 60-day payment terms.Derrick called them himself, but the supplier showed him no courtesy."We gave your company 60 days because of Lydia. When your first store couldn't pay its bills, she came to our warehouse after work every day to help pack orders. She helped you settle the outstanding payments. To be honest, Mr. Waterson, we don't know you that well."…By the next day, those words had spread throughout the company. The company issued a revised product statement that same day.My name was l

"She's enjoyed the company's success for years, and now she's turning on it?""Isn't she just doing this because she couldn't get the shares she wanted?""I hate it when people use employees as bargaining chips."…Derrick called me at 9 p.m, saying, "Don't read what people are saying online."I was busy packing my belongings at my premarital apartment when he contacted me. "Are you going to delete the statement?"He paused for two seconds before saying, "Restore the authorization first."I set an old account book into a box before replying, "Then, don't tell me to stop reading.""Lydia, do you know how many orders the company lost today?""I know.""One phone call from you could fix everything.""Why should I?""You created those products.""Apparently not, since my name wasn't on it."He finally lost his patience with me. "We can put your name on the product, and I'll delete the statement, too. Just get the company up and running again."It was the same old bargain. He

I set my phone face down on the table and inquired lightly, "Why are you so nervous? Didn't you always say my recipes were worthless without the company?"He reached for my phone. "Give it to me."I slipped it into my bag before he could grab it and zipped it shut."By the way, I read every single page of the 5 million debt you prepared for me."…All the company's senior executives were summoned to the conference room less than 20 minutes after the investors departed.Derrick slammed a printed notice onto the table and demanded, "When was this sent?""At 9 a.m.""Why did you CC the investors about this?""They're doing due diligence. They deserve to know if the core assets have ownership problems." The company's legal counsel flipped to the last page of the old contract. Then, they added, "The original rights to all three core production techniques belong to Ms. Males' personal studio. The company only obtained an exclusive license to use them, not ownership."Derrick imme
A Wife's Worth in Shares Chapter 4 Sign It Yourself
On Monday afternoon, the company held its financing signing ceremony as scheduled and livestreamed the entire event. They hoped this event would end the recent controversy over me owning zero shares.The viewer count had passed 200,000 within ten minutes.The final 5 million guarantee agreement sat on the table.Derrick pushed the document toward me after explaining the financing plan. He even smiled at the camera while saying, "Just one last formality. Darling, once you sign it, we'll go home and celebrate."The comments were already pouring in."Has she finally gotten her shares?""So, does she really own 0%?""Natasha owns 35% but doesn't have to guarantee anything. Meanwhile, the wife with 0% has to guarantee 5 million?"The host didn't dare to read a single comment off the screen.I opened the first page. The amount was still 5 million, and my premarital apartment was still listed as collateral.I picked up the pen.Natasha lifted her glass of water across from me, secu
