Chapter 0169 For the first tever, I felt pity for Rose. I wondered the misery she must be in. She was in so much pain yet she hid it so well by being bitchy and frustrating.
He cleared his throat and shrugged. "One morning, she eventually agreed to sell it. Perhaps, she had missed her son and wanted to see him again. Perhaps, she didn't want him to lose face before the members of the parliament and ruin the good marriage arrangement," he shrugged again, "I don't know why because I hadn't even begun to forture her as my last resort but she signed the last share transfer agreement.

1 stared at Mark, my eyes searching his as I looked into them.
I felt uneasy and I wished he hadn't toldall the things he toldnow. How could he? Why did he do it? I thought he had forgiven them and let the past remain in the past.
As I looked at him right now, the stupid ugly snug smile still plastered on his face, he looked different from the man I know and fell in love with. I searched for the kind forgiving man I loved and my heart fell to the pit of my stomach when I couldn't find him.
Who is this man? "What now?" His smile wiped off and his expression softened, "Why are you looking atlike that?. What's going on in that head of yours?" I licked my lips and pulled away from him, ignoring his question. I felt deceived. I felt duped. "Sydney, look at me," he ordered and I obliged. "Don't blme. Rose and her husband, for their own selfish interests, squeezed out my mother, poisoned my body and madea weakling who had to rely on the wheels and comfort of a wheelchair for twenty years of my best years!" I could hear and see the hatred and bitterness in his voice and eyes and I just stared at him in disbelief.
"I go to the hospital as often as I take my daily meals! You know how much suffering I have suffered to get here, you knew how hard it was for me, you know all this, Sydney. They deserve whatever comes to them." "So what are you going to do now?" I asked in a croaked voice.

"What I'd do today is to kick Rose and Mark out of the board of directors and get back what my mother and I deserve. What was rightfully ours all this while." I flinched when he grabbed my hand and palmed his chest with his own hand. "Sydney," his voice was soft and I caught a glimpse of my Lucas, "I know what must be going through your head. I know you think I've changed, but I have no choice. It's beyond my control." I wanted to yell at him and tell him that it was not beyond his control. He could let it all go and forget about it. But I didn't. I stared at him and listened to him speak "The only thing that hasn't changed is that I love you and I'll always do no matter what. So can you help me?" Chapter 0169 +25 BON I was moved by his words. I knew what he had gone through, his pain, the helplessness and misery of going in and out of the hospital, his second home. But if I agreed to help him take over from Mark, what about the promise that I made to Doris? It was unfair, being faced with a choice like this. Why did he have to get revenge and makehave to choose? "Sydney?" I swallowed and looked away from his probing gaze. I didn't want to see the expression in his eyes when I told him that I wouldn't be able to support him or help him. I already gave my word to Doris but he didn't let me.
He gave my hand a squeeze, "It's okay if you can't decide," he paused and added, "Yet. I understand. But since you haven't cto a decision, just keep silent, okay?"
I looked up at him, about to tell him that I had made my decision when the door opened and the host's voice broke the noisy silence in the room and all the murmuring stopped. "GT Group 111 Annual Shareholders' Meeting is now starting!" Lucas gavea nod and a smile. Then he released my hand and got on his feet. Everyone walked as he walked to the stage..
He smiled as he opened his mouth to address all of us. "Ladies and Gentlemen, I am Lugas, the youngest son of the founder of GT Group. As you all know, the current CEO of the Group, Mark, has lost the ability to remain the CEO of GT Group."
There were murmurs then it slowly went down. "Due to that fact, I would like to propose a motion to cancel his ΝΟΥ position as CEO of the group. If you're in support, please, raise your hands to vote." Like RICH WOMEN? These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming* these rich women will persue you.
