Chapter 7 I Am the Young Lady of the Wallace Family
Samantha was concerned that Finley wouldn’t believe her, so she reached out and touched his hand. “It must be very painful when you get hurt. So, from now on, I won’t let you get hurt again because I will protect you.”
Samantha’s words were genuine, but Finley couldn’t take them seriously.
He feared that all of this was just a dream.
When the dream ended, everything would vanish.
When a person lived in darkness for a long time, they no longer dared to easily believe that the light appearing before their eyes was real.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
After all, he was afraid that if he reached out his hand, that hard-earned light would disappear when he woke up from the dream.
After dinner, Samantha cleaned up the dishes and returned to her room. She looked at Finley, who had retreated into the room again and sat on the bed. She didn’t know how long she had waited for him, but eventually, fatigue overcame her, and she fell into a deep sleep on the bed.
…
The next day, Samantha woke up to the sound of knocking on the door. She raised her hand instinctively to shield herself from the sunlight streaming through the window.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
The knocking on the door grew more urgent. “Mrs. Dean, Mr. Dean is in trouble.”
Finley was in trouble?
Samantha sat up from the bed quickly and didn’t even bother to put on her shoes. She went straight to the door and opened it. Upon seeing Daphne’s anxious face, Samantha asked, “Daphne, did you just say that Finley is in trouble? What happened to him? Is he injured?”
“Mr. Dean is not injured, but the company’s shareholders came to the house early this morning and forced Mr. Dean to give up the president position of the Dean Corporation. Now, Mr. Dean is being threatened by them. Mrs. Dean, I don’t understand the company’s affairs, so I can’t help him. As the young lady of the Wallace Corporation, you should be able to help Mr. Dean resolve this crisis, right?”
The young lady of the Wallace Corporation was Amy.
It was not her!
Moreover, Amy was just the daughter of a mistress. Did she deserve to be called the young lady of the Wallace Corporation?
Samantha said coldly, “Daphne, the so-called young lady of the Wallace Corporation is Amy and not me. I am Samantha.”
Samantha?
The foolish second young lady that everyone in Edrana knew about?
Before Daphne could react, Samantha left her side and went to the hall alone.
The hall was filled with noise.
A large group of shareholders were pressuring Finley to step down.
“Finley, we’ve watched you grow up. If possible, we don’t want to force you to give up the president position, but now, people outside are saying that you are poisoned and your life is in danger. If you don’t hand over the president position, the Dean Corporation will be destroyed under your leadership.”
“Finley, you are not young anymore. If you are truly poisoned, you should step down and let capable individuals take your place. As for you, find a wife quickly and continue the Dean Family’s lineage.”
“That’s right, Finley. Your most important task now is to take care of your health. Leave the company’s affairs to us.”
“Finley…”
The shareholders urged Finley to step down one after another, but he seemed oblivious to their pleas. He sat there like a king and observed the shareholders in front of him as if they were mere jesters.
The Dean Corporation was entrusted to him by his father before his father passed away, so even in death, he would not allow the Dean Corporation to fall into the hands of others.
