Chapter 415 Kelly Refuses to Sell Her Shares

* Finished

“Kelly, the representatives from Wagner Group are here…” Hanson’s voice carried a note of worry,

The team from Wagner Group was eager to finalize the share transaction before anything could go wrong.

“Poor Zev…” Vincent murmured softly, his voice tinged with sadriess. “His uncle has been using him like a pawn.”

It was clear to everyone that Zev, though sharp and clever, was being played by the Wagners.

A traitor within your own family was a dangerous force.

Shawn and Zev had always been at odds, and everyone assumed their conflict was just a rivalry between the illegitimate son and Zev. So when Shawn began taking some of Lockhart Group’s senior members with him, Zev fought back by pulling Quentin away from Wagner Group.

Zev had trusted Quentin deeply, partly because of his past with Zev’s mother, Helena. Quentin had worked under her and owed her his start, so he agreed to leave his position as vice CEO at Wagner Group to help Zev.

Zev was grateful for Quentin’s loyalty, but this trust was a grave mistake–he had welcomed a wolf into the fold.

Now, Zev’s fate hung in the balance, all thanks to Quentin, the very person he had trusted most. The financial troubles and missteps that plagued Lockhart Group were also part of Quentin’s plan.

Zev had been betrayed by the one person he had relied on.

And the masterminds behind Quentin’s actions–suspected to be Patrick or Gary or both–were just as much a part of this power struggle.

“Ms: Kelly, the Wagner Group team is waiting for you in the conference room … ” the secretary called from the door. It seemed that they had gotten impatient.

“Let them wait,” Kelly replied, frustration clear in her voice.

She was struggling to find a way out of this mess.

Sitting on the couch, the weight of the decisions before her felt overwhelming.

Lockhart Group was Zev’s legacy from Wade; she couldn’t let it crumble under her watch.

But if anything happened to her, Zev would be lost, unable to navigate the chaos.

“Kelly, if you trust us, you could sell part of Lockhart Group’s shares at market value. That would help with the financial troubles and stabilize things,” Vincent offered, his tone firm.

For the moment, they needed to maintain control.

“As for the Wagner Group shares/hold off for as long as you can. As long as they’re still in your possession, they won’t dare make a move against you. If you die, the shares would pass to your children, and they wouldn’t be able to touch them until they were older. I doubt they’d live that long anyway,” Vincent suggested, outlining a plan.

From what Vincent and Sidney had observed, the forces behind this had already schemed against two

generations: first Sylvester, then Zev. It seemed unlikely they’d drag things out long enough for the next generation to play a role.

“But the Lockhart Group shares… they’re not in my control. Zev holds them. I’m only in charge of Jasper and Shane’s shares,” Kelly said, furrowing her brow in thought.

“You still have control over them,” Vincent replied. “Before the children come of age, you have the authority to manage the shares. We could sign a private trust agreement, transferring the holding rights to the Brookses and Hardisons. All the profits would go to us, and during this time, both families would have priority for cooperation with Lockhart Group. Once the children reach adulthood, the shares would return to them.”

Vincent met Sidney’s gaze. The plan was to allocate the company’s resources to secure guardianship of the child until they came of age–a move that promised significant financial returns. Given the potential gains. the board would probably approve funding for Kelly, offering her temporary relief from her struggles.

By taking temporary control of Jasper and Shane’s shares, the Brooks and Hardison families would become closely linked to Lockhart Group for the duration of the arrangement. This alliance would align their interests, strengthening their position when facing the powerful figures backing Wagner Group later on.

“I’m fine with it,” Sidney said with a nod.

He felt indebted to Zev. If the Lockhart Group or Zev faced trouble, walking away wasn’t an option–not when Shane was part of the equation.

The two families had been linked for years, and this was just another step in their shared fate.

Caden, on the other hand, was unlikely to marry or have children, so the future of the Hardisons rested with Shane. Sidney wasn’t concerned with personal gain.

“Alright,” Kelly said, nodding reluctantly. “Thank you … I’m really sorry.”

She felt guilty for dragging them into this, but there were no other options.

“Don’t mention it,” Vincent said with a laugh. “Being able to buy the trust rights to Lockhart Group isn’t something anyone can just do. This is a good deal for me. There’s no need to feel guilty.”

Kelly offered a small, grateful smile. Lockhart Group was in shambles–leaderless, in chaos, and with employees already considering leaving. Who would want to take on such a mess?

Sidney had joined for Shane, out of a sense of duty or guilt. But Vincent’s involvement was purely out of love.

“Kelly…” Hanson came back inside, looking resigned. “Wagner Group is still pushing you.“.

Kelly frowned and stood up. “I’ll go talk to them.”

Kelly entered the conference room with a calm, authoritative presence. Sidney was taken aback; he had expected her to struggle in Zev’s absence, especially as a woman and a doctor. But her resilience exceeded his expectations.

She pushed the door open, revealing Wagner Group’s finance team, who had been waiting impatiently for over half an hour.

Chapter 415 Kelly Refuses to Sell Her Shares

“Ms. Kelly, I’m Franco Castillo, and I’m in charge of this acquisition,” the leader of the group said, offering his hand with a smile.

Kelly ignored him, sitting down coolly across from him, her presence commanding. “I’d like to know who exactly will own the shares if Wagner Group buys them?”

In other words, who would truly benefit from this deal?

“Ah… we’re purchasing the shares on behalf of the company, Franco said, his response vague. “There’s no specific individual owner–the benefits belong to the company.”

Kelly smiled, not pushing further. “I’m sorry, but I’m not planning to sell my shares right now. I believe Wagner Group’s shares are still valuable. Since we’re all in business, perhaps a public auction would generate a better return.”
