Chapter 176


    Before anyone knew it, Lily had started to shine spectacrly


    Shannon bit her lip as tears welled up in her eyes, and she stubbornly refused to let them fall.


    Lily nced at her indifferently and retracted her gaze. “Now that you know the identity of the man in the photos. It’s time we talk about the Excebook post now.”


    After she said that, she nced atn. He got her signal and pressed a button on theputer. The screen now showed the ID of the Facebook sender and the contents from Shannon’s phone.


    Shannon <b>was </b>sturned to see this. “How How did you


    Lily smirked <b>and </b><b>said</b><b>, </b>“There are many things about me that you can’t imagine. Do you want to see?”


    “<b>No</b>!” Shannon shouted without thinking she didn’t know what else Lily had, but she couldn’t let Lily continue.


    If Lily carried on, Shannon would lose her mind.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.


    Liam looked at the contents on the screen and felt too ashamed to stay there any longer.


    He walked up to Lily and apologized to her. “I’m sorry for not educating and disciplining Shannon properly as her father. I apologize to you on her behalf. As I have something to attend to, I’ll be leaving first.”


    Lily nced at him. “Mr. Martinez, I don’t me you.”


    Liam smiled bitterly and said nothing. He turned and nodded at Stefan and Mnie before leaving alone. He didn’t take anyone else from the Martinez family with him.


    With such an incident happening, the atmosphere became immensely awkward. Some people expressed their intention to leave as well. <b>Of </b>course, the remaining Martinez family members couldn’t bear to stay any longer. Julia bid farewell to Mnie with her family and turned to leave.


    However, Loid stopped them. “<b>Mrs. </b>Martinez Senior,”


    Julia’s expression stiffened. She smiled awkwardly at Loid. “Yes, Mr. Loid?”


    Lold walked over to Lily and took her hand. He stared at julia coldly and spoke in an icy <b>tone</b><b>, </b>“Your granddaughter posted those photos on Facebook to defame and damage the reputation of my fiancée


    “Moreover<b>, </b>she embarrassed my fiancée in public during the banquet held by my family. Don’t you think the Martinez family should make up for this huge scobefore leaving?”


    Shaun shot Julia a cial re before standing silently beside Loid. He had made up his mind that if Loid <b>didn’t </b>pursue this matter <b>today</b>, he would step in to resolve it to <b>address </b>Lily’s grievances.


    Julia’s expression soured, but she quickly adjusted her mindset and looked at Lold apologetically. “This was indeed our fault. How would you like us to make it up to you? We will dly do it as long as it’s within our capability.”


    Loid narrowed his eyes, his expression solemn “I think 20 percent of the Martinez Group shares would be an adequatepensation”


    “What?” Julia’s face fell drastically “20 percent?”


    Although the shares of the Martinez Group were in the hands <b>of </b>their own family members, after dividing them among the eldest and second eldest sons<b>, </b>they didn’t have many shares left. Julia only had 40 percent of the shares. If she gave away 20 percent, she wouldn’t be thergest shareholder anymore.


    “What’s wrong? Are you not willing? Loid adjusted his suit sleeveszily, looking unbothered.


    Julia’s heart raced. After a fierce internal struggle, she finally nodded. “Okay, we’ll do as you said.”


    Keeping thie Martinez family intact was more important than holding on <b>to </b>20 percent of the shares.
