And if I sell my shares, I won’t have a voice in the Roberts Group in the future!”
Tess sighed and continued to comfort Amanda patiently.
“Auntie, I understand, but just think about it. If the Roberts Group doesn’t survive this crisis, your shares will be worthless. And don’t worry, it’ll only be temporary.”

Finally, she called Tess and said in a hoarse voice, “Sell the shares.”
Tess suppressed the joy in her voice and pretended to say with a heavy heart, “Don’t worry. I will see to this matter myself.”
