Chapter 1448


    Chapter 1448


    The Hall family owned a lot of businesses in various industries. But with the loss of their daughter in


    theirter years, they found themselves no longer interested in managing them. That was when


    Wenham stepped in and struck a deal with the Saun family. As a result, all of Freesia’s shares fell


    under his name. Even though Darcie was the primary operator of thepany, her stake only


    amounted to thirty percent, with Wenham retaining the majority.


    Now that he handed Caline over to Ste, he instantly leveled the ying field for the two of them


    within thepany. Darcie felt a tightness in her chest. She quickly pieced together that this was


    Wenham’s way of expressing his displeasure about the hotel selection and also aspensation to


    Ste.


    At the same time, Jaylene’s face darkened. She had expressed her desire to be part of Caline’s


    management on multiple asions, only to be met with Wenham’s refusal, citing her health as a


    concern. Yet, Ste did not even need to ask before being handed the authority on a silver tter.


    Jaylene felt that her father was now a stranger.


    Jaylene clenched her fingers, her gaze locked onto the figures on stage as a surge of emotions brewed


    within her.


    Ste was well aware of the value Caline carried. She hesitated from grabbing the documents and


    said, “Dad, I’m not particrly versed in perfumery. Are you sure entrusting the business to me is a


    good idea?”


    Wenham smiled and said, “You can always learn. Consider it practice. I have tons of otherpanies


    you can manage, Ste. You can take on any of them if you want.”


    Ste did not know what to say. The degree to which Wenham doted on his children seemed


    boundless. It was surprising that he had not spoiled Trevor to the extent of no return.


    She stole a nce at her brother, who shot her a cool look, implying that she should draw her own


    judgments. Ste fell silent for a moment, suddenly realizing that her father might not be as lenient with


    Trevor.


    This gift was remarkably valuable. If it were anything else, Ste might have hesitated to ept.


    However, knowing it was thepany left behind by her biological mother, she could not help but get a


    strange feeling.


    After a brief moment of contemtion, she extended her hand and took the papers, softly saying,


    “Thank you, Dad.”

    Wenham was overjoyed and grabbed her hand, saying,” You’ve been on your feet for a while. Let’s


    grab a bite and take a breather.”
