I paused for a moment and then said with a hint of mockery, “I never knew you had such tolerance before.

That night, I had kissed Frank in front of him. Although was drunk, it had actually happened. Given his nature, which allowed only himself to set the rules and not others, he should have ignored me from then

As soon as my words fell, the sound that followed wasn’t Ryan’s voice but the commotion coming from the center of the banquet hall.

Lily had changed into a pure white dress. Standing in the center with a microphone, she seemed a bit shy, but her dark eyes were fixed intensely on a certain direction.

The direction where Frank was.

“Over these years, being away from Grandma and my parents, I… I’ve suffered a lot and dealt with many people’s looks, but relying on the few remaining beautiful memories, I’ve held on.”

She choked up slightly and began to sob. “I’m also very lucky. My family… and Frank, have never given up on finding me. This morning, when Grandma asked me what my wish was, I couldn’t think of anything at that moment because being able to return to the Shaw family was already a wonderful thing… But now, I

think I’ve thought of it.”

“My wish is to repay Frank for these years of waiting, to marry him and become his wife…” By the end, her voice was so soft it was barely audible.

Who wouldn’t want to support a story of lovers finally being together?

The entire audience erupted in cheers, with some young men clapping and applauding.

Madam Shaw also had tears in her eyes. Even if Lily didn’t seem like herself, at that moment, she would accept the reality and show boundless affection.

Frank’s gaze was somewhat ambiguous, making it hard to read his emotions.

Ryan stood next to me, his voice was cold. “You’re willing to crash into this kind of wall just to avoid coming back to me?”

There was a hint of mockery in his tone that was clear without needing to listen closely.

However, whether it was him or Frank, neither were the issues I needed to address at the moment. Nor would I choose Frank just to leave him, as he suggested.

I smiled. “Mr. Frost, don’t worry. I now have the ability to recognize a scumbag. I won’t fall into the same

trap twice.”

His eyes darkened, seemingly laughing in anger. “Are you calling me a scumbag?”

“Are you a scumbag?” I responded calmly.

Ryan’s lips curled into a slight, mocking smile as he spoke in a light tone, “It hasn’t been long since the divorce, but you seem to be better with words.”

“Ryan.” I composed myself and said softly, “I’ve always hoped that we could part ways with dignity. Even if we’re divorced now, let’s not make our meetings awkward.”

I had never imagined I could say such rational words to him one day, without a hint of bitterness.

“If you wish for anything, I can help you achieve it.” He reverted to his inherent dominance. “Except for this one thing.”

“What if I offer you that 10% of shares in exchange?”

Recently, the share price of the Frost Group had clearly improved, though it hadn’t reached the stage lan mentioned of multiplying several times. However, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Frost Group was no longer comparable to the past.

The 10% I held was worth a fortune.

Ryan was momentarily stunned, his eyes darkening. “Are you threatening me again?”

“You could think it that way!”

This share could ensure a clean break between me and the past. If he didn’t agree, I would sell it to someone else.

That 10% share could influence major decisions at the shareholders‘ meeting of the Frost Group. Ryan wouldn’t allow it to fall into someone else’s hands.
