Fred’s face darkened as soon as he heard her mocking tone. “Hmph! You don’t need to worry about
that. Right now, Matthew isn’t here. The Grant family, who value old ties, invited me back to take
charge. Valerie, don’t say I’m picking on you because you’re young, Just look at the state of the
Noria Group under your management these past days! It’s been a mess!”
The people around them quickly chimed in “Yeah, if you can’t handle it, stop pretending! Let
someone more capable take over!
“Mrs. Grant, you should just stay home and take care of the kid!”
“You don’t have the ability to hold
up
the Noria Group!”
Valerie smiled calmly at their words. Tve been thinking the same, actually. So today. I’d like to hand
over the new project to any of you who think you’re up to the task. If someone canplete it, I’ll
dly step aside and let the Noria Group be run by someone more capable.”
Valerie massaged her temples, feigning exhaustion. “Whoever can get the Rosy Bay project of the
ground. I’ll hand over my shares in the Noria Group to them
The shares in Valerie’s hand were given to her by Matthew, and they were quite significant.
As expected, Fred immediately jumped at the chance. “Are you serious?”
Valerie nodded. “Of course. You know, with the kid, I’m really overwhelmed. If someone can help, I’d
be grateful. Charles is just an assistant, after all, and there are some things he can’t take care of,
Naturally, the Grant family’s business should be managed by a Grant family member”
Her words struck a chord with Fred, and he quickly nodded in agreement. “You’re right. Leave this to
me!”
Valerie frowned deeply. “Are you sure you want to take on this project? You’ve been away for so
long. You might not be familiar with the business anymore.
Fred dismissed her concerns, “What does that matter? Even though I haven’t been with the
company for a while, we have people who can help us. As long as we have them, there’s nothing to
worry about! Rest assured. There won’t be any mistakes?”
Before Valerie could say more, other members of the Grant family started to chime in. “Just let him
give it a try!”
“And besides if you’re not capable, don’t hold others back. Not everyone is as ipetent as
you!”
“Exactly! Fred has worked at the Noria Group for many years. If it weren’t for Matthew, he would’ve
taken over the Grant family a long time ago!”
Valerie sneered. “Since that’s the case, let’s sign an agreement. If you can’t handle it, then stop
ming me from now on. I may not have much experience, but I am Matthew’s legitimate wife and
a shareholder of the Noria Group! Whether I’m capable or not, even Sophia hasn’tmented on it,
so you all better keep quiet!”
Valerie disyed the authority of the Grant family matriarch, and at her words, the room fell silent
Fred chuckled. “No problem. What’s the big deal about signing an agreement?
“It’s not just you alone. All of you will sign” Valerie demanded, pointing to several others in the room
Seeing Valerie’s determined stance, the others frowned deeply, feeling somewhat unwilling but also
cornered.
Valerie crossed her arms. “What’s the matter? Are you scared! Or is it that you simply don’t have
what it takes?”
“Who’s scared? It’s just a signature, nothing to worry about!” Without hesitation, Fred signed the
agreement, and the rest reluctantly followed suit.
Valerie smiled, thinking to herself, Tim going to use this opportunity topletely entrap Fred,
leaving him no time toe after me
With the agreement in hand, Fred looked at Valerie with enthusiasm. “Just you wait. This time, I’ll
show you what a seasoned investor is capable of
Valerie shrugged, unfazed. She was indeed waiting, but she worried Fred night not take the bait.
Once Fred made his move, she’d have the perfect reason to pull the rug out from under him.
This project was meticulously designed to ensure Fred’s downfall, leaving him with no chance to rise
again. If anyone tries to meddle with us, they’ll all be out!‘ Valerie had made up her mind.
Taking a deep breath, Valerie reminded herself of her responsibility as Mathew’s wife. She had to
hold onto the Noria Group until Matthew returned
Outwardly, she was sharp and fierce, like a warrior ready for battle. But at home, she had tofort

After all, Mathew’s predicament weighed heavily on the entire Grant family-
Late at night, Valerie let her hair down andy on the bed, gazing at her baby, her heart filled with
tenderness. “Matthew, you have toe back. You just have to. I don’t know if I can keep going
without you. I’m so tired, so scared!”
A tear slipped down her cheek as the baby gurgled and grabbed her hand with a chubby fist, making
Valerie’s heart melt. She couldn’t help but kiss the baby’s forehead, Matthew, the baby and I will be
here waiting for you. You muste back.”
Valerie drifted into sleep, knowing she couldn’t afford to fall. If she did, the Grant family would be
doomed.
As she dozed off, on the other side of town, Fred, brimming with excitement, headed straight for
Rosy Bay with the other Grant family members.
This was a massive project. If he could pull it off, the profits would reach 100 million dors, giving
him the chance to make aeback.
However, as soon as he arrived at the construction site, Fred’s smile quickly faded.
The site hade to a halt due to ack of funds, with no sufficient working capital avable
