A ripple of gasps swept through the room. This young woman in front of them was throwing one bombshell after another.As for Nigel, everything around him faded to black.Without hesitation, Tony rushed to grab the shareholding agreement. He quickly returned to Nigel, spreading it out before him.Everything was plainly outlined in black and white. This was no mere figment of his imagination.Nigel felt the darkness closing in around him once more.A faint smile curled at the corners of Elijah's lips. His voice remained steady and composed. "As Ms. Everhart's attorney, I can assure you this shareholding agreement is legally binding."If you have any doubts, Mr. Everhart, you're welcome to have someone from the legal department verify it right now."If he dared to make such a claim, there could be no question that the document was genuine.Nigel's gaze cut through Winter. It was as if his eyes could tear her apart with their intensity.Back then, he had manipulated the will and f

Bruce froze for a moment. Recognizing the genuine conviction in Winter's words, he didn't dismiss her daring claim.Instead, he replied with a solemn tone, "Ms. Everhart, I understand your determination. But the role of president isn't won through impulse or enthusiasm alone."Do you really understand technology? Do you grasp management? Even if you do, your uncle controls the majority of shares. We all must answer to him. If he stands against you, all your ambitions will amount to nothing.""Uncle Bruce, what if I told you I'm capable of going toe-to-toe with Nigel? Out of respect for my mother, would you give me your support?""Do you actually own a stake in this company?"Winter's lips curved slightly. "Yes, 30%. That makes me Everlast's second-largest shareholder."Bruce was taken aback. Though he understood Winter's point, doubts still lingered."Appointing a CEO is too important a decision. It requires the board's approval. Even if I back you, how will you convince the oth

Nigel almost bit the tip of his cigarette off. "I don't remember seeing this 30% in your mother's will."Winter remained composed, a faint smile flickering across her face. "Huh? Uncle Nigel, have you read her will?"Nigel's heart leaped, though his face gave nothing away. "Of course I have! Isn't that only natural? Your mother died young, and you were just a child. As for your father, you know exactly what kind of man he is. Apart from me, who else could she have leaned on when she was gravely ill? I'm her brother, after all.""That 30% stake was a gift my mother left me. She kept it from you because she feared it could be exploited by those with ill intentions. I was just a young girl with no one to rely on, which is why she kept those shares hidden. She had intended to give them to me only when I was ready to take control of my own life."Winter's gaze lingered on Nigel's sullen face. A knowing smile tugged at her lips."Thankfully, my mother had a plan. Without it, some greedy

Michelle shut her eyes in despair. Tears rolled steadily down her face. "But Jeston is my home… My parents and friends are all here… I can't possibly bring myself to leave them…"Even if I left Jeston, could I actually find a job? The Strouds have businesses and ventures scattered across the country. To them, erasing a nobody like me would be no harder than crushing an ant."The more Michelle dwelled on it, the more terrified she felt. She clutched her head in despair. "I guess they weren't wrong. My life… is truly over!""No, it's not. Mich, don't cry!" Winter quickly grabbed a tissue and gently wiped away her tears. She seemed almost like a protective elder sister. "Mich, if you had the choice to go back to Stroud Group or work at Everlast Tech, which would you choose?""Life isn't one to give you options like that. Jessica hates me to the core. She'd tear me apart if she could…" Michelle trembled, her eyes snapping open. "Winter, you're not seriously thinking of confronting Josh

Sheila's expression instantly darkened. She stood there stiffly, not knowing what to say.Realizing it wasn't Joshua, Florence asked in confusion, "Sheila, who's at the door?""Mrs. Stroud Senior, it's—""It's me!"With that, Jessica pushed the door open and rushed inside. The startled Sheila stumbled backward. Wearing a bright smile, Jessica walked up to Florence.When she saw Winter, her eyes briefly dimmed. Still, she forced down her displeasure and greeted her with a sweet, polite smile. "Winter, I didn't expect to see you here."Winter shot her a cold stare. Without a word, she casually glanced away. Her indifference was almost unbearable.Florence glared at Jessica. Gripping Winter's hand, her entire body trembled with rage. "Who gave you permission to come here? Didn't anyone tell you that only members of the Stroud family are allowed to see me?"Her stance couldn't have been clearer. By siding with Winter as her granddaughter-in-law, Florence forced Jessica to confront
