Chapter 1472 Sell Their Shares to the Wrays
Rodrigo stated, 'I'm a representative from the legal department, Mrs. Whitman. Mr. Whitman has entrusted me entirely with handling your divorce matters. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."
With her eyes reddening, Ophelia shot back, "Why should I ask you about our affairs? Get Noah on the line right now! Do you hear-"
Before she could finish her words, Tamia abruptly ended the call and grabbed her shoulder. 'You're a member of the Montclair family, but look at you now!"
"Did you hear that, Mom? Noah actually sought legal advice. He really wants to divorce me!" Ophelia exclaimed with trembling hands.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Tamia looked at her distraught face and stated, "I heard him, which is why I intervened. Noah prepared those documents as soon as you mentioned divorce. I'd say he's been planning this for a while.
"No wonder he didn't ask you anything about the incident at the Whitman residence. He acted caring just to deceive me! If he's treating you this way, then go with the flow.
"I'd like to see if the Whitmans are steadfast in crossing the Monctlair family. Once you're divorced, they won't have full control of the shares!"
"But I don't want a divorce, Mom!" Ophelia cried, gripping Tamia's arm. She deeply regretted bringing up the idea of divorce to Noah
Holding Ophelia's hand, Tamia comforted her, 'I know, but what matters now is keeping your cool in this situation. Remember, the Whitman family can't afford a divorce. Leave everything to me.
"If Noah insists on going through it, he'd have to give up half his wealth and shares to you. There's nothing to fear. Tell me, do you think the Whitman family could retain their glory after losing their shares?'
Ophelia shook her head, seemingly coming to a realization.
Tamia patted her hand and continued, "I'll have someone speak to the Whitmans about the compensation you deserve. We'll take away their shares and sell them to the Wrays. Even if Noah doesn't mind, Mr. Whitman Senior will never allow that!"
Hearing that, Ophelia finally stopped crying. However, she couldn't shake the unease in her heart. Noah's earlier indifference left her questioning if she had truly known him.
"What if Noah insists on a divorce?" she asked.
Tamia cast her a glance and replied, "Then we'll do exactly what he wants! The compensation you'll receive will set you up for a lavish life. Noah will be just a nobody.
"Plus, selling your shares to the Wray family will open up a world of connections for you. The Whitmans will be the only ones left suffering!"
Tamia had already struck a deal with the Wray family for financial gains and connections in exchange for the Whitmans' shares. Her confidence was based on her ignorance of Kenton betting the farm on stocks.
Tamia believed she had a clear insight and assumed a piece of land wouldn't impact the Wray family.
Little did she know that certain truths were kept under wraps. For instance, no one would openly admit to suffering losses in stocks, especially not Kenton's associates.
Those individuals were operating small businesses. If word about their failed investments went out, their businesses would swiftly crumble.
They had been covering for each other while discreetly seeking loans from the bank. If they could just hold on for a month without a cash flow crisis, they might still stay afloat.
Of course, Tamia remained blissfully unaware of that.
