As he looked at her reddened eyes,Tom furrowed his brow slightly and continued,"Rest assured,the position of Mrs.Wellington has always been yours.But since Stacy came to me without name or status,I must ultimately provide her and the child with some security.”
“When we established the company,I gave you a twenty percent stake.Now,transfer those shares to Stacy and her child.”
"Don't worry.This is just a form of security for them.I’ll allocate your share of the company’s annual dividends from my own portion.Besides,we’re family—there’s no need to be so strict about money matters.”
Julie did not know whether she should cry or laugh hearing his words.He had promised she would be Mrs.Wellington for life,yet…he reserved his love and money for Stacy and her child.
People always said that where a man’s love was,his money followed.But she had neither.
She had bet everything on love—and lost completely.
Then to everyone's surprise,Julie agreed once more.
“Fine.Where's the contract?I'll sign it.”
They didn't know she'd already arranged to withdraw her investments.In a month,Wellington Group would face bankruptcy.Whoever held the company shares would bear the heaviest losses.
