Chapter 226
Noelle turned away without hesitating and drove off.
She had never imagined Xavier would go this far and pull such disgusting moves. How dare he
come buttering her up now that he knew she was a shareholder of City Ring Corp? Did he really
think she was an idiot he could summon as he pleased?
She had not reached the point where she had that little self–respect!
Winter stood in a corner and watched the exchange between Xavier and Noelle. Her hands were
gripping the wall tightly as she gritted her teeth and red at Noelle until she finally left.
For a moment, Winter wished to herself that the wall in her grasp was actually Noelle so that she
could strangle her to death.
Why? Why were both her paternal and maternal grandfathers so nice to that bitch? Her paternal
grandfather had even transferred ownership of his shares to Noelle!

As for Xavier… Well, she had always known he had only gotten together with her because he had
his eyes set on the shares she owned.
However, she did not care. She would take everything that Noelle wanted and treasured no matter
what it took–even if it meant giving up what she cared for most in the world.
Winter drew in a deep breath and recollected her emotions before she walked out and linked arms
with Xavier. “What did Noelle say, Xavier? Has she really transferred ownership of those shares to
someone else?”
Xavier was in a terrible mood now. He felt overwhelmed with regret whenever he thought of what
Noelle had just said to him, and his annoyance only increased when Winter walked over to him.
“Xavier?”
Xavier turned around and said exasperatedly, “How am I supposed to know?”
“Xavier!” Winter called out as she bit down on her lip. Her hands were trembling when she wrapped
them around Xavier’s arm.
Guilt washed over Xavier when he saw the look on Winter’s face, and he forced himself to speak to
her patiently, “I’m sorry, Winter. What happened just now was my fault.
“I’m sure you know what Noelle is like. She hates our guts right now and thinks that we’ve wronged
her. She’s getting her revenge on us!”
Xavier patted Winter’s hand. “She’s refusing to tell who she’s given those shares to. What should we
do now?”
“What else can we do other than think of a way to force her into handing over ownership to those
shares? I refuse to believe that she just gave them to someone else without wanting something in
return.”
After all, this was not a small percentage of shares they were talking about but rather half of the
shares of City Ring Corp. Winter refused to believe Noelle was that stupid. There was no doubt
Noelle was lying to them.

“Yes. We must think of a way to have Noelle give up ownership of those shares to you. After all,
you’re the rightful heiress to the Shaw family and the only one who has the right to inherit the Shaw
family’s assets!”
Xavier spoke as he patted Winter’s hand. Since Noelle was refusing to get back together, there was
nothing he could do now other than make sure Winter remained firmly within his clutches.
Upon hearing what Xavier said, Winter ced a gentle kiss on his lips. “I always knew you’d look
out for me, Xavier. We muste up with a well–crafted n. Noelle has no knack for doing
business, and her hostility is extended toward everyone in the Shaw family besides Grandpa.
“I’m worried she’ll use her ownership of these shares to stir up drama and cause problems that
won’t benefit us, the Shaw family, and City Ring Corp. This means that the shares can’t belong to
Noelle. I know doing this may be unfair to Noelle, but I have no other choice!”
“I understand. You’re doing this for her own good and preventing her from being manipted in the
future,” Xavier said as he patted Winter’s hand. “Let’s go. Don’t you have an audition today? I’ll drop
you off!”
“Alright. I always knew you loved me most, Xavier.” As Winter imagined herself returning to the
stage and doing better than she ever was, she felt like the future held endless possibilities.
