Sean didn''t know it at the beginning, Rachel deliberately forwarded the message to tell him. "Tracey
is an old friend of ours, we should go and congratte her.”
When reading this message, Sean felt like a bug biting his heart. It was painful.
He did not reply to Rachel. In fact, their marriage would go after the Old Master Xia''s birthday party,
which was carefully nned by Old Master Sheng.
Although Sean had started to manage thepany, the shares had not yet passed on to him until
he getting married. For fear that Sean would be disobedient like Adam, Old Master Sheng thought
of this way to ensure the marriage happening.
Marriage alliance was always a useful tool for wealthy families to grow family power. Rachel was
the only daughter of the Nan family, when she married Sean, the Nan family would be the joint
forces of the Sheng family.
Two families should work together to engulf Xia''s Group step by step, this was Old Master Sheng''s
ambition, it was also the reason why he was so hostile to Old Master Xia.
Every controller of thepany wanted to be at the top and let otherpanies be beyond their
reach. Adam was the first choice of Old Master Sheng to help achieve his goal.
What he should do first was to marry Ms. Luo, which made Adam disgusted all the time.
Besides, Sean and Adam fell out because of Tracey, and it made Old Master Sheng hated the Xia
family more. He hoped to fulfill his wish soon, so he gave Adam ast chance.
He decided if he was rejected once again, he would not be considerate anymore and would hand
over full power to Sean.
After hearing about the engagement, Renee ran to Carmen''s apartment with tears. She didn''t have
a boyfriend recently, then the engagement must be about Tracey.
She was extremely sad. "Mom, Tracey is now the vice president of thepany, and she is
engaged to Adam soon. How can Ipare with her?"
Carmen suffered a cold after that heavy rain night, she now looked weak andy on the bed with no
strength. Renee had beenining for a while by her bed.
Since she had entered the apartment, she had always scolded Tracey but fully ignored Carmen''s
sickness.
"Don''t cry, okay?" Carmen said in a haggard voice.
"Mom, I''m reluctant. Why did Tracey take all the benefits? Why don''t I have such good luck like
her?" Renee''s eyes were already red like peaches in tears.
"Cry, cry, cry! When can you do something except crying?! Do tears help? If you hate her, then
remove
her!" Carmen was annoyed by Renee''s look.
"Yes, removing her, sounded so easy, but I’m no match for her!"
"So you turn to crying?"
"Mom, please help me and think of a way. What do you think I should do?" Renee had to turn to
Carmen finally.
"What should you do? Renee, I can''t protect you for a lifetime. I hope you can grow up by yourself. I
won''t intervene in this matter. You have to learn how to solve it on your own."
Carmen knew clearly the reason why Tracey could be stronger and calmer than Renee was
because she got used to taking care of anything alone these years.
In contrast, Renee and Leo were overprotected. She regarded it as the love for them. Until today,
she realized that her spoils may be harmful to them and make them inferior to Tracey. "It’s time to
make some changes." Carmen thought.
"Mom."
"Don''t beg me. You should find your own way of dealing with this thing. I have to remind you that
since the Old Master will release Tracey''s engagement, it means that he is going to arrange the
shares." Carmen was a smart woman to understand many things soon.
"What? If the old master gave her the shares, how much will be left for me and Leo?” For Renee,
this news would be the fuel adding to her fire.
"You should be grateful if you can get it. Do you know what I''m worried about? I’m worried that you
and Leo can''t get even one percent of the shares." Carmen said, thinking of Tracey''s heartless
words.
She had already known the big secret, and it was uncertain when it would be revealed. Carmen was
subconsciously afraid of Tracey so much.
"I’m tired. Solve this thing on your own. If you can’t impede Tracey this time, everything of the Xia
family will belong to her.” Maybe because of being sick or having enough ups and downs, Carmen
became passive for fighting.
"Mom, I won’t let Tracey seed!” As she said this, she rushed out again like the wind. No matter
what means she used, she had to impede Tracey.
Although Carmen said that she would not help, in fact, she cared about Renee and tried to figure
out a way to help. She targeted Old Master Xia''s birthday party.
She made a phone call to Ben. He was originally in a good mood because Tracey had won the
contract. But his face changed as soon as he saw Carmen''s call.
"What’s the matter?" The number of Carmen immediately reminded him of the scene that she and
Edgar hugged each other in the heavy rain.
"This woman was really cheap. She was skillful to pretend loyal to me but hooked up with my cousin
behind my back! No self-esteem!" Ben thought.
Hearing his cold voice, Carmen looked bad, but she had to endure. "Honey, I..." "Don’t call me that.
I can’t stand it." "Ben... President Xia, what happened that night was not what you thought. I just fell
down identally and Edgar helped me up." Carmen still wanted to exin.
"You and he had nothing to do with me and I am not interested in what happened to you at all. If you
call me just want to talk about this matter, you can hang up." Ben said.
Only then did Carmen know that once a man became ruthless, he would be much more than a
woman. She bit her lip, saying "President Xia, you misunderstood. The old master’ s birthday is
coming, if I didn''t attend it with you, he must be suspicious of us. So, I think...”
"No way. Don''t worry about that, you know my dad dislikes you. If he knows you have left the Xia
family, he would only be happy. Carmen, I won''t believe any word of you any longer."
After saying that, Ben hung up coldly. His trust was all destroyed in Carmen''s lies. When the busy
tone came, Carmen''s lips were already red from biting.
"Ben, I won''t leave the Xia family!" Carmen told herself in a cold face. She had been working so
hard for many years and used all of her means to acquire a position in a rich family, how would she
just let go?
