Chapter 1632


    "You have been given more shares than our father..." Spencer and Samuel were so surprised that they


    started to tell Nicole things she was not aware of.


    Hearing that, a headache began to set in for Nicole. ‘Why did you give me so many unwarranted


    shares? I''m not short on cash. This is drawing so much unwanted attention to myself! I


    Deep down, she wanted to reach out by signaling to Mr. Riddle Sr. that she had something to say to


    him, but unfortunately for her, he seemed to have known her thoughts, and so, he added, "However,


    since she''s still in school, so she will not be participating in thepany affairs for the time being. As


    for now, allpany affairs will be managed by Daniel and Sean. She''ll join us once she reaches 20


    years of age."


    Nicole could not even muster up a single word to voice her refusal.


    Mr. Riddle Sr. understood very well that he had not given Nicole any chance to decline, and once


    again, the crowd erupted into thunderous apuse. As for Daniel, he had never experienced such a


    moment before. It was the truly peak of his entire career.


    Daniel helped Mr. Riddle Sr. down the stage, his face beaming with uncontroble joy as he felt a little


    dizzy.


    After the announcement, the energy that was supposed to die down was ignited once more. Both Sean


    and Stanley were surrounded by guests handing their business cards to them. Meanwhile, Daniel was


    helping Mr. Riddle Sr. over to Nicole.


    Nicole looked at him and said in a low voice, "Grandpa, why didn''t you discuss it with me beforehand?


    Why did you announce that you would give me the shares?”


    Indeed, Nicole had too many things on her te, and would have no time to deal withpany affairs.


    In response, Mr. Riddle Sr. smiled. “If I had told you in advance, would you have epted it?”


    Nicole was rendered speechless upon hearing this.

    "Right, so I could only resort to doing this. I''m getting old and these shares, sooner orter will be split


    between all of you guys," he said.


    Nicole then took a deep breath. "But because you''ve given me so many shares, others may have other


    ideas."


    Knowing who Nicole was talking about at an instant, the old man''s face darkened and he deliberately


    raised his voice as he said, “Compare the state of thepany in the past ten years and the state of it


    now. Anyone could tell who is more suited to manage thepany. This matter cannot be discussed


    by others as I have already decided!"


    Damien and Dillon, who were not far away, overheard this, and as soon as they did, they quickly lost


    the courage to ask why. It was because of their management of thepany over the past ten years


    that the Riddle Family continued to decline in power and reputation. As such, they could only me


    themselves and their ipetence.


    Unable to take it anymore, Damien shouted, "Let''s go!”


    Naturally, Miley trailed behind him and left. Dillon was also livid, but he did not have the nerve to leave.


    On the other hand, Karen was unable to deal with the humiliation anymore, and proceeded to pull


    Dillon along with her, saying, "Damien had already left. What are you still doing, standing here? Do you


    want to continue to embarrass yourself?”


    Without waiting for Dillon to respond, she immediately dragged him away. Mr. Riddle Sr. shook his


    head as he watched the two families’ departure.


    Tve given the both of them ten years’ worth of opportunities and none of them had taken it. Now, the


    only person I could trust is Daniel,’ he thought.


    "I''m tired. I''ll leave the banquet in your hands now. I''ll be going back to the Riddle residence.” Mr.


    Riddle Sr. shot Daniel a nce.


    "Got it." Daniel hurriedly nodded, after which he sent Mr. Riddle Sr. off.


    "I''m tired too, let''s leave together.” Mr. Johnston Sr. suddenly appeared, wanting to leave the banquet


    together with Mr. Riddle Sr. Nicole looked at Jared. "Go send your grandpa off."


    "Okay." Jared nodded, whereupon he helped his grandfather and Mr. Riddle Sr. out the venue. Though


    the two of them had left, people spared no time to seize every drop of alcohol.


    Nicole, who was also a little tired, decided to go to the bathroom before leaving. However, she did not


    notice that someone was following her as she was on her way out.
