Chasing After My Beloved Wife novel Chapter 58

Was the attack that day staged by the minority shareholders or Shawn?

"Is there a problem?"

Seeing that Joye did not answer, Shawn moved. He looked somewhat evil. Finally, he glared at her coldly.

"If there is no problem, you can go back to the Leonard Group."

Joye stared back.

Shawn kept looking at Joye mockingly and with contempt. She stood up but felt that her stomach was aching. She maintained her normal posture and looked at Shawn.

"What about I give the Richard Group shares to you, too? It'll save me from the trouble."

She pulled out the divorce papers from her bag, which had long been prepared by her lawyer. She smiled coldly.

"Sign it!"

Salmon, Shawn’s assistant, glanced at his boss then silently took the document and handed it to him.

Everyone was shocked by Joye's behavior, but Salmon didn't miss the irritation in Shawn’s eyes.

He was not annoyed because of his shares, but because of the divorce papers.

"After I sign it, I will no longer be the largest shareholder of the Richard family. In the future, if any secrets are leaked, there is no need to look for me."

Joye leaned forward and handed him her pen. She was smiling but her heart was in pain. She was forcing herself to end their relationship. Once Shawn signed the papers, they would have made a clean break.

Shawn's narrowed eyes swept across the papers. His gaze became cold. She didn't want any of the Richard family's shares. No that wasn’t all, she didn't even want a single cent from him!

Good job.

"It shouldn't be difficult for you to sign this."

Joye was still in the same position as before, but her voice was trembling. She had to control herself so that Shawn would not notice her pain.

He took the pen and no longer looked at her. He finally signed his name on the page.

Joye looked at the signature at the bottom of the page and couldn't describe what it felt like.

"Once the lawyer is done with it, let me know.”

The divorce procedure was simple, but he still had to discuss the transfer of shares with Baird. It would be best if Shawn handled it.

After doing what she had to do, Joye had no reason to stay any longer. She got up, pushed the door open, and left the conference room. The fresh air outside eased the discomfort in her stomach.

Before she could take a few more deep breaths, she saw a slender woman's figure appear in front of her.

"It’s good to see you doing well, Miss Leonard.”

Vivian was smiling gently. Joye saw that her arm was still in a cast. It looked badly injured. Joye asked, “You pushed me down the stairs, then pretended to rescue me. What are you trying to do

The moment when she fell down the stairs, she thought that Vivian's target was the baby, but now, that did not seem like the case anymore.

But there was one thing she was very sure of. Whatever it was, Vivian did not have good intentions.

Vivian smiled. Her makeup made her look attractive but modest at the same time.

"I want him to hate you so very much.”

Instead of chasing away a woman, it was better to turn her into someone he hated.

Joye scoffed, "Do you have self-esteem?”

Vivan became irritated, but then calmed down. Joye could see that she was about to lose her temper.

"That's right. You and Shawn have a son, and now I have one in my womb too. You might not know this, but Mr. Richard has always said that the eldest great-grandson of the Richard family must come from me.”

"Speaking of this, I'm really worried about your son. He's so cute and doesn't understand what it’s like to be an illegitimate child. I hope that he doesn’t get bullied. How pitiful.”

As Joye spoke, she suddenly changed the topic and there was a hint of aggression in her eyes. “Go ahead and try to be Mrs. Richard if you can. Don’t do anything else, otherwise, I promise you, I will come after you and your son!”

Although she had been willful since she was a child, she had never been arrogant. But today, she wanted to vent all her anger.

Joye walked past and bumped directly into Vivian’s shoulder. Vivian turned back and smiled. She carefully took out a recording device in the shape of a pen. She clicked “save.”

After returning to the office, Joye felt less angry, and her face looked a little pale.

"President? Are you all right?"

Linda poured a cup of hot milk for Joye. Although Linda didn't go to the Richard family with her, she could guess what had happened.

"I'm fine, Linda. Have the Media Department make a clean break from the Richard Group."

After taking a sip of warm milk, Joye's lips regained some color. Once the news that she no longer controlled the shares of the Richard family spread, Leonard Group would be affected. Now she had orders with her, so it gave her some power.

But...

"Make an appointment with the boss of the Beryl Group for me."

In the cafe, Joye pulled out a chair and sat down in front of a gentleman. The man raised his head and smiled at her, revealing his white teeth. His glasses shielded his eyes from revealing too much information. He spoke politely.

"Miss Leonard, are you here to ask about the Richard Group project?"

"You guessed right, Mr. Beryl. I’ve had so much to deal with, so thank you for taking care of this for me.”

Joye smiled elegantly. She wouldn't ask how the Beryl Group got information on the Richard family's project. She just wanted to confirm one thing.

"Since I’ve had the stick, can you give me the carrot now, Mr. Beryl?”

"Haha." He laughed.

Needless to say, Jared Beryl already understood what she meant. He smiled brightly and said, "Don't worry, Miss Leonard. I won't go back on my word. The contract with Leonard Group is all aboveboard. You can rest assured. As long as your products meet the requirements of the contract, I think we will be very happy in this cooperation."

"That's good."

Joye stirred the coffee in front of her, but she didn't intend to drink it. She just smelled the aroma of the coffee, sobered up, and felt better.

From the moment she left the Richard Group to go to the Leonard Group, she was actually regretting her impulse at that moment. If the Beryl Group’s list was just a cover, once it was blown, Leonard Group would be in a much more difficult position than before.
