“What?” Lucinda exclaimed in disbelief.
“Are you out of your mind?” she cast a sidelong glance at him.
“You’re just his uncle, and his mother is his direct family. She should be the heiress of his shares, not you,” she stated firmly.
“But…” Enoch tried to argue.
Enoch remained composed despite being mocked. He explained, “Amanda isn’t capable of managing the company. Look at what she did to it before. She’ll ruin the company if you give her the shares. Besides, she treated you poorly in the past. Are you willing to trust her with the shares? I, on the other hand, can be of great assistance to you, and I deeply regret everything I’ve done to you. I promise I won’t oppose you in the future.”
A sneer formed on Lucinda’s face as she accused him, “Are you trying to deceive me with your sweet talk? If you get the shares, you’ll become the largest shareholder of the company. Your ultimate goal is to become the president of Roberts Group, isn’t it?”
Enoch hesitated, not wanting to give away his true intentions.
After a moment of silence, he finally responded, “Well…”
Enoch realized that it wasn’t wise to confront Lucinda directly, so he devised a more indirect strategy.
“I don’t want to hear your excuses. Beating around the bush makes me sick. Whether you can take over the company actually does not depend on you,” she said, cutting him off.
He remained silent for a moment with a grim expression.
Realizing her shrewdness, he understood that now that she was aware of his plan, she would be even more cautious in her dealings with him in the future.
“How about this? Since you suggested Amanda should receive my nephew’s shares, why not have her come here today to sign the share transfer agreement in the presence of a lawyer?” he proposed.
He didn’t care if Amanda received the shares. He was confident he could steal them from her sooner or later. As long as Lucinda didn’t acquire them, everything would eventually work out for him.
Lucinda sneered at him.

Just as she was about to respond, the office door swung open.
Amanda entered the office with her usual elegance and composure, appearing less despondent than she had been a few days prior.
Enoch’s face lit up upon seeing her.
“Ah, we were just about to request you to come and sign the transfer agreement!” he exclaimed.
Lucinda leaned against the chair, crossing her arms over her chest, and said nothing.
She was curious to see what the two of them were planning to do.
As Amanda approached, he stood up from his seat and offered it to her.
Without any show of modesty, Amanda elegantly seated herself and told Enoch, “It’s not within our authority to decide how to allocate my son’s shares.”
“What do you mean?” he asked, taken aback. His expression was one of shock.
