“Alisha, I can’t sell the shares.” Deven frowned. He was a member of the Stein family. If he had no confidence in the Stein Group, what would outsiders think? This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Alisha glared at him and said angrily, “If you don’t, when the Stein Group goes bankrupt, your shares will be worthless. Do you want to live the rest of your life in misery?”

Deven was silent.

“Deven, sell the shares in your hand and set up a new company with me. It only belongs to you and me. There won’t be any share dispute. Isn’t that good?” Alisha said.

She finally exposed her purpose. Since Monica wanted to obtain the Stein Group, Alisha knew she had no chance. That was why she was ready to set up her own company.

But she needed money. The only source for her to get money was Deven.

“But…”

“Don’t say anything. Deven, think about what you have done in the past few years. Do you want Monica to surpass you and let outsiders mock you? They will say Mr. Stein’s son is inferior to Monica.” Alisha became impolite and angry, thinking that Deven was useless.

Alisha was quite capable of persuading men. When Deven said this, he was indeed a bit moved.

All these years, he had been incapable and ridiculed by outsiders. Although no one ever said anything to him, he knew everything in his heart.

Now that he had an opportunity to establish his own company, he was naturally tempted.

“Alisha, I understand what you mean, but I don’t have the ability.” In front of Alisha, he had to admit that he really had no talent in the business.

Alisha comforted him and said, “Don’t worry. With my help, you will succeed. I promise that I won’t be worse than Monica.”

“But if I fail…”

“Deven, are you a man or not? Aren’t you afraid of living under Monica’s shadow for the rest of your life?” Alisha angrily shouted at him.

Seeing her angry, Deven quickly comforted her. “Alisha, don’t be angry. I will listen to you.”

Hearing this, Alisha smiled. “That’s right. Don’t worry. I won’t let you down.”

At this moment, Deven had no idea that his decision turned him from being able to live a comfortable, wealthy life into having nothing.

Elaina didn’t know the couple’s conversation. Even if she knew, she would only applaud and cheer, watching them going to their doom.

She returned to the office after finishing the operation and felt exhausted. However, at this time, she happened to see Jaydon in the office. She felt it more difficult to breathe.

“Ella, you haven’t eaten yet, right? I brought you something to eat.” He put the dinner box on Elaina’s table and looked at her with a smile.

Elaina felt bothered by Jaydon. “Mr. Becker, I am very grateful for your kindness, but you really don’t need to do so much for me.”

“It’s okay. I am willing to do anything for you.” Jaydon didn’t care about Elaina’s refusal. Maybe he had been rejected too many times. Now he didn’t feel pain at all.

Elaina shook her head, not knowing what to say.

She would never be able to make herself clear to Jaydon, so she simply opened the dinner box and started eating.

Jaydon smiled brightly. There was progress. If she didn’t feel anything, Ella would not have eaten the food he brought.

When Joyce knocked on the door and came in, she saw this scene and felt that she had come at the wrong time.

“Joyce, what’s up?” Elaina looked up at her.

Joyce was embarrassed. She was still holding a tablet in her hand. She didn’t know whether she should say it or not. It seemed that Elaina wasn’t in a bad mood.

Elaina sensed something and reached out to her. “Give me the tablet and let me have a look.”
