NovelEnglishChapter 629 Still a Member of the Xanders
Evan informed Caroline, “Your grandfather has been hospitalized.”
Caroline tightened her lips. ‘He got what was coming to him.”
Evan asked, “Aren’t you considering returning to the family?”
Caroline smiled bitterly and retorted, “Why would I want to go back? Have you forgotten how he nearly
killed me?”
Evan smirked, saying, “It’s probably for the best not to return. Especially since Neil has resigned, and
the
Xanders‘ future is uncertain.”
Caroline raised an eyebrow in surprise. “Resigned?”
Evan asked, “Didn’t your brother tell you anything?”
Caroline frowned. “What do you mean?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEvan explained, “Neil secretly transferred many crucial contracts, leaving the Xander Group a mere
shell.”
Caroline’s heart sank. “Grayson would be livid if he knew about Neil’s actions. It would be fine if
Grayson
were to berate him, but he would be sent to prison if Grayson were to sue him!”
Caroline hurriedly reached for her phone to call Neil.
Evan questioned, “Are you trying to call him? Are you concerned that your grandfather will have him.
jailed?”
Caroline stated firmly, “Yes.”
Evan reassured, “Your worry is unnecessary. Your grandfather depends on Neil entirely. Sending him to
prison would leave the Xander Group in ruins.”
Caroline worriedly said, “But my brother has resigned. How can he still rely on him?”
Evan scoffed. “Do you underestimate your grandfather? If he lost his composure over something trivial
like this, he couldn’t have made the Xanders one of Angelbay’s three most powerful families.”
Caroline asked, “So what do you mean by “future is unknown‘ then?”
Evan glanced at her and explained, “If your grandfather approaches you, It’s a different story.”
“I don’t understand,” Caroline said.

Evan clarified, “Your grandfather has only two options now. First, he can use your brother as leverage
to persuade you to join the Xander Group. Second, he can transfer all his shares to you.”
Caroline stated firmly, “Neither option is viable!”
Evan said nonchalantly, “In that case, your grandfather may resort to threatening you.”
Caroline finally grasped Evan’s intention.
“Are you suggesting I stick to my principles to make him repent?” Caroline asked.
Evan nodded. “If I’m not mistaken, that has been Neil’s plan all along.”
Caroline remained silent. “He must assume that I’ll transfer all the acquired shares to Neil.”

understand that you don’t care about them.”
Caroline questioned, “But what if he’s wrong?”
Evan looked away. “You’re still a Xander.”
Caroline pressed on, “What if I reject all his proposals?”
Evan’s expression darkened. “Then you should consider how the Xanders will fare in Angelbay’s
future.”
Caroline panicked at the thought.

them because the family had not completely fallen.

opposition.

For that reason alone, she couldn’t avoid getting involved in the Xanders‘ family matters.
