The atmosphere in the huge meeting is very tense, and no one stands up to protest first. After all, it is
still unknown whether Troy is alive or dead, and they are still afraid of him.
Seeing this, William understands the difficulties of the shareholders and stands up and says, "Since
Ms. Arya has brought it up, how about letting me and Mrs. Karin both be the heads of the Charlie
Group."
Karin snorts and stared at William mockingly, wishing to cut his chest and dig out his heart to see how
much conspiracy is hidden inside with her sharp gazes.
"This suggestion is good."
The shareholders nod, but another tangled question reappears. If two people are in charge at the same
time, who is the inferior one?
Steven Charles, the fourth son of the family suddenly stands up, "If this is really to be done, I think Mr.
Shelton should be the president and Karin should be the vice president. It is difficult for a woman to
bear the burden of thousands of people. I am from the perspective of fairness. I hope all shareholders
will think carefully."
Steven sits down and the fifth son of the family stands up. No matter when, the two people are quite in
agreement, "I also agree that Mr. Shelton should be the president. Although the two have the same
educational background, Mr. Shelton's management experience is something that Karin is lack of."
When the shareholders hear their words, they also express their approval. Seeing that the situation has
been set, Tory's sisters have no choice but to accept this arrangement. As long as they occupy the
position of the company's management first, there will be a way out.
At the end of the meeting, Karin passes by William, glares at him fiercely. She gnashes her teeth and
says, "Let's wait and see."
In the living room of Ziteng Garden, Tory's three sisters sit together with solemn expressions to discuss
countermeasures. Now even they don't believe in Emmanuel.
"I really didn't expect Uncle Emmanuel to be such a person. I always thought he was the best uncle to
Tory."
Arya says angrily.
"The day Lennon died strangely, I already had doubts about him. Tory was obviously not in Zurich, but
all the signs proved that he killed him. At this time, someone reported John's case. John has no
relatives in Zurich. Who cares if a gangster died? It was clear that it aimed at Tory. And the maid from
the Mia's family, who had been dead for so long, and was turned out like a bomb against Tory. Incident
comes one after another. It is nothing more than to crush Troy. We are all fooled."
Lily analyzed her own point of view and indignation blazed in her eyes.
Compared to the annoyance of the two younger sisters, Milan appears to be calmer. She says coldly,
"If Uncle Emmanuel really conspired with Caleb, then we should be careful, especially Karin. What
happened to Tory may also happen to you. They will not be willing to let you stay in the company for
too long."
Karin raises her eyes expressionlessly, "If Emmanuel is not the mastermind behind, how could William
have so many shares? The reason why he still doesn't tear his face with us is because he is afraid of
being condemned by public opinion. Once his identity is revealed, it is tantamount to admitting that he
murdered his nephew. In this way, can Caleb still be in a stable position?"
Her hands slowly clench into fists, and her nails squeeze into the flesh fiercely, except for numbness,
without any pain.
There is still no news about Tory, but William has officially taken office.
Karin finally can't bear it, so she comes to William's residence. William still lives in the previous
apartment, just by his side, there are more bodyguards.
Once a person becomes famous, he pays special attention to life. Even William, who looked sound at
the beginning, is the same.
William is extremely surprised at her arrival. He raises his eyebrows, "Why are you here?"
"I have something to ask you."
Karin comes in uninvited and glances at the two bodyguards standing outside the door. She smiles
sarcastically, "Well, are you afraid that others will come to you for revenge after doing too many bad
things?"
William doesn't explain, he just pours a cup of tea for her and asks, "What can I do?"
"Where did you get Troy?"
"I do not know."
He doesn't pause. He seems to be a natural liar, and Karin can't even see the slightest difference in his
eyes.
"Don't you admit it yet? Your lies may be able to fool others, but you can't fool me, because you have
revealed your ambition in front of me a long time ago!"
"Believe it or not, I don't know it."
William looks directly into her eyes, and answers simply and succinctly.
"Give it to you. I can give you everything you want. I only need Troy. As long as he is returned to me,
whether it is the Charlies Group or the shares, take them all."
What she says is the truth, not an expedient. As long as Troy is alive, she can do anything, but if Troy
is dead, then what she has is meaningless.
"I'll say it one last time." William approaches her, "I don't know where he is."
The last hope in her heart is disillusioned. Karin suddenly takes out a sharp dagger from her pocket
and stabs him fiercely. William's gazes turn to be sharp, and he squeezes her wrist. The dagger is
stopped in the air and stalemate. He roars, "Are you crazy?"
"Yes, I'm crazy, you and Emmanuel drove me crazy! You make me feel bad, and I won't make you feel
good!"
She tries all her strength to stab the dagger down, and the sound of the quarrel alarms the two
bodyguards outside. They rush into the house, catch Karin, and press her on the table immobile.
"Let her go."
William says calmly.
The two bodyguards seem uneasy and remind, "She wants to assassinate you..."
"I said let her go."
He stares, and the two bodyguards hurriedly let go. Karin straightens up. There is no gratitude in her
cold eyes. There is only a deep resentment towards him, "Listen to me clearly, even if you and
Emmanuel put on one thousand disguises, I'll make you show what you really are. I will definitely find
out the relationship between you and him!"
After speaking, Karin turns and leaves without looking back.
Passing by the door of his house, she remembers that many years ago, when she still treated him as a
friend, Troy kidnapped her from here, and he justly warned Troy not to hurt this woman, otherwise he
would take her to somewhere Tory couldn't find.
Memories only exist for something that can be remembered, but sometimes memories are really ironic.
After Karin leave William's apartment, she does not go home directly. Instead, she goes to the beach
by herself and stands on the edge of a reef. She tries hard not to blink against the wind. It is said that
the tears will not flow down in that way.
Since Troy disappeared, she has run to the beach every afternoon and then called his name to the sea
until she is exhausted.
Day after day, ten days passes in a blink of an eye. Ten days is only ten days to others, but as long as
ten years to her.
"Troy, where are you? Even if you don't come back, let me know where you are. I come to the beach
during the day to find you, and I stand at the door of our house and wait for you at night. I spend every
day waiting. Can you understand what kind of suffering it is? What I regret most now is that I shouldn't
let go of your hand that day. If I insist on not letting go, you may not leave. Then, everything will not be
what it is now." She pauses, the expression on her face is very painful, "Life without ifs is really
exhausting..."
After standing for a long time, the wind is still blowing, and the sun gradually sets until it reaches the
unfathomable seabed.
"This is the last time I come to the beach to call you. Please forgive me. But every night, I will still wait
for you at the gate of Ziteng Garden until you come back. Troy, please keep your promise."
She squats down and writes three words on the beach with her fingers: Come back soon.
Taking a deep breath, she continues speaking, only this time, not to the missing person, but to
herself.
