Chapter 1659


    “I’ll go with you,” Hadley said immediately. “But if Reba really is dead, then what about her shares?


    Will they fall into the hands of Jeffery and his wife?”


    Catherine’s chest tightened. Hadley’s words served as a reminder.


    “What’s the current situation at Hill Corporation? ording to Shaun, Reba brought in her own


    people to take over Hill Corporation and even fired many of thepany’s senior executives?”


    “Yes, Reba hired a team herself. The person in charge is someone called Wade. The rest of them


    took over other important positions of GM and managers of various departments.” Hadley had a


    headache. “I looked into it and discovered that Wesley and Wade are close.”


    “So Wade is one of Wesley’s men,” Catherine said as she was struck with an understanding.


    “Yes. That, in fact, made sense. As ruthless as she was, Reba wasn’t particrly skilled and


    capable of dealing with the business side of things. When ites to her connections, Wesley was the


    only one


    she knew outside the Costner family. She must know, however, that when two dogs aim for a bone, it’s


    the third dog that gets it. Wesley must have gone to look for Jeffery and Sally when he returned to


    Melbourne suddenly.”


    “Yes, Reba probably had the impression that her rtionship with Wesley was one where they


    exploited each other, but she was wrong. She was only but a tool to Wesley. ” Catherine sighed. “In the


    end, she underestimated Wesley’s brutality and viciousness.”


    Wesley’s cruelty seemed to have no bounds.Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    Hadley smiled wryly. “If that’s the case, Hill Corporation fell into Wesley’sps following his borate


    scheme. Wesley’s Golden Corporation is already at its pinnacle. If he were to control Hill Corporation


    by pulling the strings from behind the scene with Jeffery as a puppet, then he’ll be at the top. Who else


    then, would be able topete with him in the future?”


    Catherine also understood why Gavin Mead would help Wesley.


    “I won’t let Wesley seed.” She gritted her teeth coldly.


    Hadley smiled bitterly. “What can you do? It might be possible if Young Master Hill was fine, but he


    currently has the IQ of a two-year-old… The both of you aren’t married either, so you have no right to


    interfere. Besides… Wesley and you are still technically husband and wife… If you step in, others might


    retaliate and use you of colluding with Wesley to annex Hill Corporation.”


    Catherine thought about Lea, who was still a shareholder.


    Lea might possess a strong business acumen but she was no match for Wesley’s malice and guile.


    “I’ll train Shaun back to how he once was as soon as possible. I’ve discovered that he’s actually not


    stupid, so it’s not like this problem is hopeless. As long as we kick Wade away and prevent Jeffery from


    entering thepany, Wesley’s n won’t work.”


    Catherine mused, “Reba bought Hill Corporation with the money that Sheryl gave her, so Sheryl is


    qualified to reim her shares. It won’t fall into Jeffery’s hand.”


    “But Sheryl and Jeffery are siblings. Will she do it?”


    “…We’ll cross the bridge when we get there.” Catherine sighed.


    Now, she only hoped that Titus could quickly cure Sheryl’s illness.


    Aunty Yasmine was done cooking when Hadley left.


    Old Madam and Old Master Hill were not pleased when they saw Shaun’s silly expression.


    “Mom, Dad, don’t worry. Shaun will get better.” Leaforted the two elders. “And… This is quite good


    too. Shaun’s childhood had always been miserable. Now that he has returned to his younger self, he


    gave us parents a chance to redeem ourselves. We’ ll give him a happy childhood this time.”


    Old Master Hill snorted. “What rubbish are you spouting? A perfectly good man was reduced to this.


    The rest of the world willugh at him. Besides, do you really think he needs you to give him a


    childhood? Do you think he relies on you as a mother?”


    Lea was embarrassed.


    It was obvious that Shaun had been clinging to Catherine since they sat at the table. Yet, he refused to


    talk to her and every cell in his body seemed to say ‘I’m not happy. Hurry up and coax me’.


    Old Madam Hill’s heart softened when she saw him. “Shaun wasn’t this cute when he was young.”


    “Come, Shaun. Have this drumstick. You have to eat more to be healthy, ” she said as she handed him


    a drumstick.
