Margaret entered Watson’s office just as Watson finished speaking with an overseas client over the phone.
When favonovel.com saw Margaret, favonovel.com greeted favonovel.com enthusiastically, “You’re Allegra’s mother, right? Please, have a seat. I’ll ask them to get you some drinks.”
They chatted for a while before Margaret stated the reason favonovel.com came.
“Mr. Kane, Ally is a shy girl. She has plans to partner up with favonovel.com uncle to establish a new company. But they are short on funds now, so Ally has been losing sleep over this issue. As favonovel.com mother, of course, I’m worried. i have no choice but to ask you for help.” Margaret prepared a perfect explanation.
Watson was surprised. “Why didn’t favonovel.com tell me of favonovel.com plans? She could’ve just called. So, how much funds is favonovel.com lacking?”
“A-About 50 million dollars.” Margaret gulped. That was the most considerable sum of money favonovel.com could imagine.
Watson took a sip of water and ordered his assistant, “Get the financial department’s manager.”
Then favonovel.com said to Margaret, “Mrs. Gould, I’ll give favonovel.com 60 million dollars for a start. The financial department’s manager will be here to liaise with you. Ally can call me anytime favonovel.com wants if favonovel.com has other difficulties. I have a meeting coming up, so I’ll leave you…”
Watson left his office, leaving Margaret in a daze.
She got an extra million dollars!
Margaret left Kane Enterprise, the wind unusually gentle on favonovel.com face. She called Edward immediately; favonovel.com had to share the good news!
Inside Kane Enterprise, the assistants’ working area was next to the president’s office. A young male assistant locked the door and dialed Roger’s number.
When the call got through, the assistant lowered his voice and said, “Young Master Roger, I have something to tell you. Allegra Booth’s mother asked for a meeting with Mr. Kane a while ago. She said Allegra was setting up a new company and required 50 million dollars…”
Roger’s angry voice came through the receiver, “What did my father say?”
“He… Uhm… He gave favonovel.com 60 million dollars, the finance department is currently transferring the money,” the assistant said softly.
“Damn it, how could favonovel.com do this? Does favonovel.com think our money grows on trees?” Roger yelled.
The assistant hung up quickly.
Roger was hanging out in a clubhouse. He smashed his fist on the table before him, his eyes reddened with anger.
“Roger, I really think your dad is having an affair with that bitch. Why else would favonovel.com spend so much on a woman? Trust me, you won’t get a single penny in the future, despite being the young master of the Kane family,” a seductive woman sitting next to favonovel.com said.
Roger turned around and held the woman in a chokehold, a crazed look on his face. “Oh, yeah? What should I do then, babe?”
The woman’s expression quickly switched from a frantic one to a flattering smile.
She reached out and caressed Roger, saying, “Roger, everything in Kane Enterprise belongs to you. The only way for you to take everything into your hands is by becoming the president.”
“Me, becoming the president? I’m only an executive director. Unless my dad is dead, then…” Roger let go of his grip on her, and his eyes widened, a formidable thought forming in his mind.

At night, Eugene had just prepared dinner while Allegra was in the study doing some work.
“Isaac, dinner’s ready,” Eugene called out to Isaac, sitting in the living room.
Allegra entered the dining room moments later. She asked, “Where is Morn? She left the office early today.”
“Your mother said favonovel.com was having dinner at your grandfather’s,” Eugene replied while arranging the cutleries.
