Chapter 397
“Got it. I’ll head to the Freeman Group after breakfast.”
After breakfast, Sheena tidied up her troubled mood and put on light makeup before heading out.
Wilfred was still yelling in the CEO’s office.
“Why is she avoiding everyone every day? Elijah is dead, and she’s pretending to be sad? Does she think she can escape the Freeman Group’s management right issue this way?”
“Get her here, now! We must have a resolution by the end of the day!”
Sarah felt helpless and wished she could smack the cunning man in the face. However, the rule of law reminded her to stay calm in public.
“Mr. Wilfred, Ms. Sheena has been sick recently. There’s no need to be so aggressive…”
Before she could finish her sentence, the door opened. Sheena, in a tight black dress and light makeup, entered. Her face, alluring yet reserved, carried a cold, proud gaze as always.
Without even looking at Wilfred, she walked to the CEO’s chair and sat down.
“Speak.”
With a tone devoid of any emotion, the one word changed Wilfred’s attitude instantly. He smiled and took a seat across from Sheena.
Last time, he was forced to consume thirty bottles of those little things, tortured for ten full days in excruciating pain. Hence, he dared not be too aggressive.
“Ms. Sheena, my beloved nephew passed away at such a young age, and I’m deeply saddened. I’ve also lost my appetite these days, but business is business…”
“Get to the point.” Sheena frowned, showing her displeasure.
“He’s gone, and the Freeman family is the only shareholder in the Freeman Group. So, shouldn’t his shares go to me?“.
“Who said that?” Sheena gave him a disdainful look. “Are you dumb? You’re just his dad’s brother, his uncle. His mother is his direct relative. Even if shares were to be distributed, it wouldn’t involve you, not when Faye’s in line.”
“But…” Despite the mockery, Wilfred was not angered. “Faye isn’t good at managing the company. Look at what she did to the Freeman Group before.
Chapter 397
Giving her shares would only destroy the Freeman Group. Plus, considering how she treated you before, are you really willing? I’m different. I can help you. Besides, I’ve repented and won’t go against you again in the future!”
Sheena sneered. “What a sweet–talker. You just want to become the majority shareholder and control the Freeman Group, right?”
Wilfred did not respond.
Securing control was a definite goal for him. After all, he could not let the Freeman Group fall into the hands of outsiders. Knowing Sheena was not easy to deal with, he had originally planned to adopt a more indirect strategy, taking one step at a time.
Sheena was uninterested and cut to the chase. “If you want it, just say it. Don’t try to fool me with nonsense. Whether you can get control from me depends on your ability.”
Wilfred’s face turned grim, remaining silent for a moment. He knew Sheena was intelligent, and now that she was aware of his intentions, she would only become
more wary.
“How about this, since you also think Faye should get Elijah’s shares, let’s have her come over today and sign the transfer agreement under the lawyer’s witness?

What could Faye do with those shares?
Sooner or later, he could convince her to hand them back to him. As long as the shares did not end up in Sheena’s hands, everything would be fine.
Sheena smirked. She was about to respond when the office door was pushed open. Faye, a stark contrast to her low spirits of the past few days, walked into the office with the grace of a noblewoman.
Seeing her, Wilfred was delighted. “Oh, we were just talking about having you come over to sign a document. What a coincidence.”
Sheena remained indifferent, hands in her pockets, leaning against the office chair. She wanted to see what kind of drama these two would perform.
As Faye approached, Wilfred stood up to offer her a seat.
Faye, equally composed, gracefully sat down, and addressed Wilfred, “The distribution of Elijah’s shares is not something for you and me to decide.”
