Chapter 2622 Didn’t Bring Gifts
More importantly, Floyd just planted a seed of doubt in his heart from the diary that Selena showed him.
It was not until he saw the final result of the police investigation that he realized how heinous his brother was.
Noah killed two people just like that and did not feel any remorse.
Floyd called everyone over because he had something to say.
He held a short family meeting and even invited Chatty and Levi to participate.
The family sat in the living room, huddled together.
Floyd looked solemn.
“Children, Noah’s case has been concluded. We have done everything we can. Eric hasn’t responded so far, which is the best reaction. At least, our family can stay out of it. Nicole, are your people still following Charles Ferguson?”
Nicole stroked her chin and nodded.
“I was afraid that Eric would do something crazy, so I had to have something on him.”
“Okay. Recall your people. We’re at fault first, so don’t make things worse.”
Nicole nodded.
Floyd pursed his lips. “Noah only enjoys the dividends from the shares. I asked him to use it for his old age, but I’m afraid he won’t be able to use it now. Although the shares transfer contract he signed with
Eric was not legally binding, I don’t think Noah should keep the shares anymore. I want to give the dividends to Selena. What do you think?”
Selena was Noah’s biological daughter. From whichever aspect, she was most suited to take over the dividends.
She also deserved it.
Selena was also a Stanton.
This was a fact.
Selena had been wronged, and Floyd wanted to compensate her.
Although they were unaware, no one was as innocent as Selena, who was the victim of this tragedy.
Nicole nodded thoughtfully.
“I don’t have an objection, but I’m afraid Uncle Noah’s wife won’t agree.”
Jade Smith was not a simple woman.
Kai sneered.
“Yeah. I think we should just do this secretly. Just legalize the share transfer contract and give the shares to Selena through Eric.”
Grant frowned. He pondered for a moment and said solemnly, “Dad, why hasn’t Jade come forward since Uncle Noah’s conviction?”
As soon as he said this, the living room fell silent.
No one had much of an opinion about the transfer of Noah’s shares to Selena.
Noah did not have any right to participate or make decisions on the board, so those shares were not important.
It was just for sharing of the dividends. Rather than giving the dividends to someone like Jade, it would be better if the money was given to Selena.
Mr. Anderson came inside.
“Chairman, Noah’s wife is here.”
Everyone was slightly surprised.
Speak of the devil.
Jade wasted no time at all.
Kai snorted coldly. “Look, she’s here now!”
Floyd looked a little upset.
They asked Noah to divorce Jade back then. It was a pity that they did not manage to get a divorce.
Jade also settled down for a while.
Nicole frowned speechlessly.
“Ask her to leave. Didn’t she create enough trouble back then? Who does she think she is?”
Kai followed suit and nodded. “That’s right! It’s Uncle Noah’s business whether to divorce Jade, but it’s our business whether we want to recognize her as our relative.”
Mr. Anderson was still standing there waiting for a reply.
Floyd paused and waved his hand.
“Forget it. Let her in first. Let’s see what she wants.”
The butler nodded.
Jade hurried in soon after.
She was decked out in branded apparel and had a full face of makeup.
It seemed that Noah treated her well.
After so many years, Jade still lived lavishly.
How could such a crazy person like Noah stick to Jade for more than 20 years?
“Big Brother… You’re all here!”
Jade looked at the people in the living room with surprise written all over her face.
She did not expect so many people to be around.
Chatty finally could not sit still and stood up. She ran to Clayton’s lap and swayed her body.
“Daddy, I want to go out and play!”
The meeting was too boring, and she could not understand what the grown-ups were talking about.
Chatty thought everyone would sit in line to share snacks!
However, nothing of that sort happened.
Clayton stroked her soft hair dotingly.
“Go on and play with Levi. But don’t run out of the yard.”
“Okay!”
Chatty happily held Levi’s hand and ran out.
Jade rubbed her hands together and smiled awkwardly.
“Oh, I came in such a hurry that I forgot to bring gifts for the children.”
Kai sneered and did not show her any respect.
“It’s good enough that you’re not asking us for money, so we don’t expect you to bring gifts for the children.”
Jade’s smile froze for a second.
“Kai, you’re still so naughty. Why don’t you have a kid now that you’re married? Your brother and sister already have children. Don’t you envy them? Or do you have an unspeakable reason? I can introduce you to a fertility clinic.”
Kai stood up angrily.
“Who the hell are you to insult me in my house? Do you really think you’re so great?”
How dare this woman humiliate him?
Kai was enjoying his romantic time with Julie.
He also had a baby on the way.
Of course, Kai did not want to tell this woman about it because she did not deserve to know the good news.
Jade smiled meaningfully, walked to the sofa, and sat down unhurriedly.
“No matter what, I’m still your second aunt and your elder. Big Brother, you value family the most, so how could your son not know how to respect his elders?”
Jade looked at Floy and tried to get Floyd to stop Kai from being rude.
In the entire Stanton family, Kai was the most unpredictable one in everything he did.
Kai was also the rudest.
Grant did not have the patience to listen to Jade, so he stood up immediately.
“Dad, Aida and I are going back to our room first.”
Floyd nodded and remained silent.
He did not speak because he did not want to respond to Jade.
Nicole and Clayton did not leave.
Nicole stared straight at Jade, which made Jade nervous.
Apart from Kai, Nicole was the second harshest in the family.
Jade was still afraid of Nicole.
Kai was a wild card, but Nicole could break the rules and get away with it.
Together, their intensity was just too great.
Floyd coughed and cleared his throat.
“Alright, just get to the point. I’m busy.”
Jade smiled awkwardly, lowered her eyes, turned to look at Floyd, and said, “Big Brother, Noah is your younger brother after all. Why didn’t you help him out when something like this happened? Why did you just watch him go to jail? I asked a lawyer. The punishment for his crimes may be life imprisonment!”
Floyd was silent for a moment and took a deep breath. His expression was indistinguishable, but there was a chill in his eyes.
“Help? How can I help him? Shall I bribe the police or the judge? How dare you suggest something like this?!”
