Spoiled my CEO husband after Rebirth

Chapter 9: Give Me Half a Month

Seeing him stop in his tracks, Gwenda continued her explanation, "Now's the best time, if I miss this..."

If she missed this chance, her father would hand over the company to Gretchen.

If she wanted to take back the company from Gretchen by then, it would be even harder for her to do

so.

Therefore, she had to act fast.

"You want to get the company back?"

August snorted in disbelief, "With you and what army?"

"August, I know that you think I'm stupid and can only throw temper tantrums. But I'm really not joking

around this time. Please trust me! Just this once."

Gwenda's face was filled with anxiety.

Grandma Suzanne gazed at her granddaughter before looking at August. "I don't think Gwenda is

joking, August..."

"Granny, do you really trust her?"

August found it hard to believe. "Her brain must've been fried in the fire. How else would she say

something like that? Have you forgotten how she protected the Evanses? With her temperament, she's

definitely trying to swindle you of your shares and hand them over to her dad!"

...

Suzanne fell silent.

August's words were not unreasonable.

There were times where she reminded Gwenda not to trust her stepmother and stepsister too much.

But in the end, Gwenda always refused to listen.

Both even fell out with each other for a certain period of time.

Thus, Suzanne knew how much Gwenda trusted her stepmother and how much she cared about the

Evanses.

"Gwenda..."

Suzanne was now a little hesitant. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Gwenda understood what she meant when she heard that. "Grandma, I've now seen the true colours of

Pauline and Gretchen. I really want to take back the company from them! I promise! Also, I'll move out

this time. Please trust me!"

This time she had made up her mind.

She would cut off all ties with the Evanses completely.

Suzanne did not expect her granddaughter to make such a decision. Hesitating, she glanced at August.

"August, what do you think?"

August frowned in thought before eventually relenting. "Fine, you can take the shares. But you have to

prove to us that you're really doing this for the company's sake and not lie to us!"

"Got it!" Gwenda had already formulated a plan. "Give me half a month, and I'll prove it to you."

August felt dubious about her words. "We'll talk about it when you've actually done it."

"Alright." Gwenda knew that it would be rather difficult for them to trust her in such a short period of

time.

Therefore, the only way to convince them was to show results.

"August, grandma, don't worry. I won't let you down."

August and Suzanne glanced at her sceptically and finally left without saying anything else.

In the afternoon, Olivier's subordinate arrived.

...

After completing the discharge procedures on Gwenda's behalf, he personally escorted her back to the

Evanses.

Before getting out of the car, Gwenda gave the driver a specific instruction. "Please wait for a few

minutes while I pack some things. I'll need you to send me somewhere else later."

"Okay, Miss Evans."

Gwenda got out of the car and looked up at her home of 20 years. Then, she walked in with loads of

complicated thoughts filling her mind.

......

"What an unruly child! How dare she hit her own sister like that? What other rules has she not broken?

Why didn't she burn to death in that fire!"

In the living room of the Evans family home, Gretchen sat quietly on the couch with her head down,

looking for all the world as if she had been wronged greatly. Gwenda's slap had caused her cheek to be

terribly red and swollen.

Anyone who saw it would pity her.

Especially Benson Evans, who had always regarded her as his precious treasure, was angry and

anxious when he saw her swollen cheek.

Hearing her husband's words, Pauline Evans said angrily, "Benson, how could you say that about

Gwenda? I'm sure she didn't do it on purpose."
