NovelEnglishWho, in their right mind, would consider selling their own family property to someone else at such a low price? Only a complete fool would even contemplate such a nonsensical action. Furthermore, this approach had left Martin and the money-grubbing members of the Lincoln family feeling quite uneasy.
Crowdstar Group had officially started the liquidation process. Following its acquisition of the Lincoln Group, it had initiated a significant staff restructuring. While Martin was currently unable to address the situation with Steven, his animosity toward him must be at an all-thigh.
He would certainly take action against Steven. It was just a matter of timing.
I frowned, but I still stood in front of Steven. "Mrs. Ford, regardless of Steve's actions, this is a matter for the entire Lincoln family. It's clear that your son has not been brought up well. If you hadn't kept the news under wraps so tightly, Michael would likely have becthe laughingstock in Huma when Stephanie passed away." Lois' expression turned grim as she gazed atwith deep contemplation. "Stephany, get into the car. I think you'll want to have a conversation with me." Noticing my indifference, Lois spoke again.

"Stephie..." Steven grabbed my sleeve and adamantly refused to letgo with Lois.
"Sir," Ewan also arrived, appearing somewhat apprehensive. He leaned in close to Steven's ear and whispered.
Steven's face grew somber as he cast a glance at Lois. Then, he whispered to me, "Stephie, there is an issue within the Lincoln Group. I'm going to handle it. Stay home. Don't leave with her." Steven had sold Lincoln Group to Crowdstar Group. What might be causing Steven to feel so anxious now? I looked at Steven, waiting for him to explain to me. As his current "wife", I was also concerned about his situation and safety. But Steven never seemed to consider my feelings as a "wife".
It felt as though I were a fragile object he held high and protected under glass, not wantingto know anything.
For instance, Eason and he had devised a plan to visit the asylum to unravel Peter's situation. He could have informedbeforehand, yet he chose not to do so.
"Listen toand wait forto cback home." As expected, he was still the same.
He departed without uttering a single word of explanation to me. I inhaled deeply, remaining silent as I observed Ewan driving him away.
Joel, who was seated in the passenger seat, remained inside the car without stepping out. From his position, he gazed atwith a frown. His expression seemed unwelcoming. I could sense a tangle of emotions reflected in his eyes.
Once Steven hopped into the car, it appeared that he and Joel engaged in ssort of communication. Although I couldn't discern their exact conversation, I couldn't help but feel isolated by them. The sensation was incredibly uneasy. It resembled a friendship among three individuals, yet two of them congregated and exchanged whispers without including the third person.

I instantly looked up at Lois.
Lois sneered. "So Steven is a sinner and the disgrace of the entire Lincoln Group. Only a fool would behave in such a way."
He believed that selling the company would finally resolve his problem entirely. This decision would have! e been acceptable when dealing with upright individuals. However, when facing someone as wicked as Martin, it was like playing with fire. "Steven is still too young. He can't handle Martin," Lois was confident Steven couldn't win.
"It's still unclear who will win. If someone does something unscrupulous, they will be punished sooner or later," I replied with a stern expression.
"Your remarks are simply naive.
Losers use such words to console themselves. Across the ages, history has always been successful new chaped be o m successful individuals. How many siblings did kings throughout history slay when he ascended the throne? How many lives did those leaders sacrifice in their quest to unify the world? Behind every great wealth and power, there lies a trail of blood."
Lois appeared to be preaching, yet also seemed to be mocking herself. "I know it was Peter who asked you to provoke my sone you both are very successful. He committed suicide. Are you happy with it now?" I was stunned and looked at Lois cautiously. "I don't understand what you're saying."
