Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 263

“It was a lot of shares, too. If they had ended up with an outsider, the consequences could have been disastrous.

I don’t know what’s been going on with Lillian lately. She didn’t look well, and she seemed drained.

She must be under a lot of pressure and in desperate need of cash to sell off her mother’s shares like that.

I had to borrow a huge sum of money just to buy them.”

Bella’s words were carefully chosen, clearly implying that she wasn’t an outsider, but an ally to Brandon and Colin.

She wouldn't use the shares to harm them.

She then served some food onto Colin’s plate.

While the brothers exchanged confused glances, trying to figure out her angle, she spoke again.

“Brandon, Colin, I’ve been really busy lately myself. As you know, Sebastian has put me in charge of two major projects at his company.

And then there’s the new project team Brandon wants to set up at your company. I’ve been tasked with that as well.

So, after I completed the transaction with Lillian yesterday, I didn’t get a chance to talk to you about it.

Those shares are currently in my name, and it will take some time before they can be transferred.

If you two trust me, let the shares stay in my name for a little while.

I promise I’ll have a surprise for you later.”

Brandon listened, completely thrown. This was not what he had expected at all.
