Chapter 109

Shirley's expression clouded as she said, "Cynthia, you've gone too far

Cynthia retorted, "I don't think I've gone too far. You said it yourself

Shirley's dark expression intensified. She didn't expect Cynthia i know the designer of Queen Jewelry truly. Not just the designer, but the person Cynthia phoned a while back was likely even more powerful.

However, Shirley didn't intend to kneel to Cynthia in front of so many people. She scoffed, saying, "I'm just kidding. Don't tell me you've taken it to heart."

Cynthia didn't say anything and only smiled.

At the same time, Justin got up and poured a glass of juice for Cynthia, asking. "Cynthia, you have connections in Queen Jewelry. Why didn't you tell me about it?" Cynthia said nothing and didn't touch the juice.

Justin felt slightly embarrassed but didn't mind and returned to his seat. He muttered, "Right. You used to work in the design industry and are also well-known in this circle. Given your numerous awards, it's not a surprise that you know a few remarkable people. Cynthia knew exactly what Justin was going to say. She replied indifferently, "Mr. Jones, I've left the design circle. Her address to him had established a definite boundary between them.

Justin appeared irritated, but he didn't let it out. Still, he smiled and said kindly, "Cynthia, I know you're still mad at me. I was wrong. I'm officially apologizing to you. Will you forgive me this time?" Cynthia's tone was calm, and no emotion could be detected. "Forgive you? So that you can persuade me to sign up for the competition in Pillere on behalf of Velorix and the company, right?" Cynthia relentlessly exposed Justin's intentions. It was as if a fig leaf had been pulled apart. His smile froze. Despite his anger, he tried to maintain control. "Isn't it always like this in previous years?" Cynthia remained silent.

Justin continued to coax, stating. "Besides, the Jones family's company is also yours. You're my daughter and will eventually inherit a portion of the Jones family's business. When you help the family today, you'll benefit as well." This design competition was extremely essential to the company. The Jones family started their business by selling clothes, which were previously popular under the brand name Velorix.

However, since Cynthia quit designing for Velorix, its popularity declined. Its market share had likewise been dropping year after year, reaching less than one-fifth of its peak. If this continued, the market would eliminate Velorix.

Furthermore, although Cynthia didn't design clothes for the company during these years, she still participated in competitions on behalf of the company every year, and each piece of work won an award.

It was an excellent opportunity for Velorix to rebound and grow in popularity. However, if Cynthia refused to compete this year. it would aggravate the brand's existing condition.

Cynthia smirked. That wasn't what Justin had said previously. He claimed that she was still the daughter of the Jones family. but behind her back, he told Selena that Shirley would inherit all of the company's shares. Cynthia was nothing more than a taken daughter who stayed with them.

At that time, Cynthia initially preferred not to compete for the family property. She thought it wasn't so horrible that he had gone to such lengths. However, now that she thought about it, he didn't drive her out of the house directly because he was 16:22 Wed, Nov 6 BGB Chapter 109

interested in her value

Cynthia used to fantasize about family devotion. Therefore, she would find reasons for their actions at first, deceiving herself, Yet, after being disenchanted, she had completely gotten her head straight, realizing Justin was a cunning businessman whose familial affection could be precisely scheme.

Cynthia asked, "Fine. Since you stated that I have a stake in the Jones family's property, how many shares will you provide me?" She spoke casually and smiled. Her tone was quite casual, but it couldn't be ignored.

Shirley immediately scolded, "Cynthia, you're so shameless. Do you honestly think you're part of the Jones family since you didn't change your surname? Let me tell you. I'm the family's only daughter and hold all the property and the business. You can't take a penny away."

Her demeanor was forceful, but Justin asked her to be quiet..

When Justin discovered Cynthia wasn't his true daughter, he planned to hand over the jones family's business to Shirley. However, three years had passed, and he realized Shirley lacked talent and virtue. If Jones Group were handed over to her, it would undoubtedly go bankrupt in less than three years.

Therefore, he had alternative plans in mind long before. After all, he did raise Cynthia as well. Even though she wasn't his biological daughter, she valued affection and personal loyalty and was talented. Besides, Jones Group was in severe need of her at present Justin said, "How about this? I'll give you five percent of the company's shares. If you agree to compete in Pillere for the company, I'll immediately transfer the shares to your name."

both in Looking like a loving father, he added, "Cynthia, we reared you even though you aren't our biological daughter. We have a

there's no difference between you and Shirley. So, we'll be fair to you great attachment to one another. In our hear the future. Let's forget about the past, okay?"

Cynthia hadn't yet spoken, and Pamela, who had just finished the phone call, returned.

Pamela pulled up the chair and said nonchalantly, "Five percent of the shares? I remember that when Shirley returned, you, two transferred 20 percent of the shares to her. Why is there only five percent left for Cynthia? There's a big difference between these two percentages. Is that what you consider fair?"

Pamela's sarcastic tone made everyone around her feel awkward

Henry pulled Pamela's arm and said, "Stop talking."

She was there that day due to Justin's request to help rebuild his family ties with Cynthia. Yet, her words sowed discord. Justin's expression was also severely darkened.

Cynthia, on the other hand, remained unaffected and unconcerned as if watching the show. She responded indifferently, "I don't want the shares, and I won't go to Pillere for the competition."

Upon hearing that, Justin was anxious. He gritted his teeth and said, "How about you and Shirley own 20 percent of the company's shares each? If you win the prize for the company, you'll also be appointed design department director." Cynthia soon agreed, "Deal."

Yet, Shirley was taken aback. "Dad, how can this be? She isn't your daughter. Do you truly want to transfer half of our Jones family's property to her? Look at the way she looked just now. She was only threatening you. She can't possibly believe that the Jones family would go bankrupt without her, right?"
