Waiting for Love to Die Chapter 10
I secretly arranged for someone to buy up Grandma's shares at a bargain price and had them transferred into my name.Meanwhile, Melissa kept her promise, selling every last share of Young Group at a fire-sale price. She then came to me with her property deeds, car titles, and all the cash from liquidating her company."Leon, this is all the money I have—60 million in total. It should be enough for you to buy back a chunk of shares.""With those shares, you'll have the leverage to kick your illegitimate brother out of the company," she said. "I can help you, Leon. Just give me the chance. Don't marry someone else, please."She sobbed as she shoved the stack of assets into my arms, looking like a madwoman at the end of her rope.I glanced at the assets and asked, "Do you remember what you said when Young Group was founded?"She froze for a moment, tears streaming down her face as her panic mounted. "Does that matter now? Whatever I said back then is nothing compared to you securing

Gary was in a panic, running to every connection he had, begging and groveling to borrow money.He wasn't the only one freaking out about my upcoming marriage alliance.Melissa showed up at my doorstep. If it weren't for the security guards holding her back, she'd have stormed right in.Her eyes were bloodshot, and she was teetering on the edge of a breakdown."You're getting married? Who are you marrying? Leonel, I won't let you marry someone else!"She grabbed my arm, her eyes wild with a desperate need for my answer.I looked at her coldly, as if she were a lunatic. "What's it to you? This is the Zucker residence, not your personal stage for a meltdown."When I didn't deny the marriage rumors, she broke down in tears. She wrapped her arms around me with desperate strength as she tried to coax me back. "I can't stand the thought of you with another woman, Leon. Please, just give me one more chance, okay?"Her words tumbled out. "If you're set on a marriage alliance, doesn't

Melissa had never imagined life without me would hit her this hard. No one kept a light on for her return, and no one worked behind the scenes to seal business deals for her. She was completely on her own.She'd thought she was done with me, fed up with my attitude. She convinced herself Nicolas was the one she loved, that having him by her side would be enough.But the moment Young Group began to collapse, Nicolas wasted no time selling off his shares, pocketing the money, and vanishing without a trace.In that moment, her world shattered.All she could think about was how much better things would have been with me by her side. She believed I'd have stepped in and fixed the mess.One thought gnawed at her relentlessly—she missed me, and she regretted everything.I shook off her grip, irritation flaring in my chest."You think you can just say it's over and that's it? Those stories about my mom being a homewrecker are still plastered all over the internet. You think my so-called

First thing in the morning, I asked Victor to arrange an all-staff meeting to introduce Gary, our newly parachuted vice president.Just as I was about to leave, Dad stopped me."Leon, I never thought your grandma would add Gary to the family records. As you know, she's been holding my marriage to your mom against me for years. But don't worry. The Zucker fortune is all yours. I'll send Gary off to a branch office. He won't cause any trouble."I gave Dad a reassuring smile and pulled him into a hug."That mess online yesterday must've been rough on you too. Just leave Gary to me. We still need to spare Grandma the embarrassment.""Why don't you take some time off, Dad?" I suggested. "Go see Mom. I'll take care of things at the office."At the all-staff meeting, Gary addressed the room, puffed up with self-importance."As the eldest son of the Zucker family, the CEO position rightfully belongs to me. But since Leon has been running Zucker Group for years, I'm not going to challeng

"How about you get your dad to reinvest, and I'll tell the media our engagement is back on?" Melissa said in a syrupy tone."Let me be blunt," she continued. "With all the bad press you're drowning in, Zucker Group isn't in much better shape. If you're hell-bent on pulling out, we'll both go down in flames!"The last line was an outright threat.I couldn't hold back my laughter as I pulled up the video the legal team had just sent me. On the screen, Dad was holding a press conference, fielding questions about my parentage."My son, Leonel, was never illegitimate, and his birth mother was never a homewrecker either. Here's the proof of my ex-wife's affair during our divorce."He added firmly, "I won't stand by and let anyone slander my wife or my son."Dad's marriage to his ex-wife was nothing more than a business deal, with no love between them. His ex-wife was the one who strayed, getting pregnant with another man's child.When Dad finally reached his breaking point and asked f

Melissa stormed out of the conference room, phone clutched in her hand as she snapped at me. "Leonel, you're that shareholder holding 200 million in shares who's never shown his face?"I nodded slowly, arching a brow. "Not mine. They're my dad's shares. I'm sure you remember I told you I had a surprise for you once we got married."I warned you I'd pull my investment from Young Group, but you didn't take me seriously."Back then, I had begged Dad to invest just to help get her company off the ground. I kept my involvement a secret, afraid she'd read too much into it. My plan was to tell her on our wedding day and hand her the 200 million in shares as a gift. But that clearly wasn't necessary anymore.She clenched her jaw so tight it seemed her teeth might crack. "You've got guts! But if you pull out, Zucker Group will take a hit too. Leonel, I'm warning you. Don't make this uglier than it has to be."I sneered, my eyes hard with resolve. "Right back at you. You left me no choice
