Frank explained, "Once you have the share transfer agreement printed, go straight to Zamri Hospital. I'll have Fleur Lang transfer all the shares she owns-that way, Lanecorp's majority shareholder will be Helen, and even Yora Yimmel would have no right to demand her departure." "Eh?" Gina did a double take but was soon delighted.
She really thought for a moment that her daughter would have to step down from Lanecorp's board chair, and that they had to return to humble little Riverton.
They certainly did not expect that they would have a way out in Fleur... To think that Frank could produce such a splendid idea so soon! However, Helen quickly snuffed out Gina's delight.

Gina flinched in realization-asking that hag for something like that was a pipe dream, no? "Don't worry. I have an idea," Frank said confidently.
"Are you going to... force her?" Helen frowned, finding such an option unacceptable.
How was that any different from daylight robbery? Still, Frank shrugged. "Don't worry-I won't do that. I'll get Fleur to willingly transfer her shares to you." "Ah. Oh, okay..." Gina sighed in relief too.
She was worried that Frank would get violent as well, in which case Yora and her cronies woulde after them.
"I'll be waiting at Zamri Hospital," Frank said then and hung up.
While Gina was jubilant at Frank's ability to turn things around, Helen was frowning.
After all, she understood the many stakes involved.
As Mark's proxy, Yora would basically own the thirty percent shares of Lanecorp he had and could therefore demand Helen's departure.

At that point, Yora would have no right to meddle with Lanecorp as Helen would be Lanecorp's majority shareholder-individually, without any ties to the rest of the Lane family. en.kikistories "Urgh..." She exhaled lengthily, since she was really nervous-she had been working so hard for Lanecorp over the last few months and refused to let her effort fall into someone else's possession.
Moreover, there was the showbiz division led by Noel York and the plans she had for thepany's future...
That was when Lily, Helen's personal secretary, arrived and handed her a document."Ms. Lane, I've printed the share transfer agreement." "Thanks." Helen nodded and slid the agreement into her briefcase.
As she pulled Gina along to leave, however, Lily suddenly stepped in front of her.
"Are you really leaving, as in leaving Lanecorp, Ms. Lane?" she asked, a wistful look on her face. "Actually, we had an internal discussion earlier... If you're really leaving, we'll go wherever you go." en.kikistories As Helen's secretary, Lily had clearly seen how hard Helen worked, raking in so many partnerships and businesses for Lanecorp. No one in Lanecorp knew better than Laly how hard she worked. en.kikistories Helen felt warmth in her heart as Lily conveyed her true feelings, and she clapped Lily's shoulder assuringly. "Don't worry. There's no chance I'm leaving!"
