Leon turned to look at Hattie beside him and patted her hair.
Hattie was completely engrossed in her work and didn't notice him.
Leon signaled to his assistant, who came forward and took away the materials in front of Hattie. "Miss, it's time for lunch," the assistant said, and then brought two servings of food to the table.
Leon rubbed Hattie's head and said, "Take a break for a while."
Hattie obediently went to wash her hands, then came back and sat on the couch to eat.
The people in the office couldn't help but feel a bit sad when they saw this girl, who was forced to sit here day and night with them, working tirelessly like an adult.
After the death of the second young lady of the Riddle family, her shares in the company were taken over by the second branch of the Riddle family.
Although Leon had thought of helping Hattie get them back, Manny seemed to have decided to keep them for the Riddle family, or maybe she just wanted to see the daughter of the Riddle family suffer. She used Hunter's status as the legal first heir to firmly control those shares, which became a bargaining chip in the battle between the dragon and phoenix twins and Leon and Hattie for the position of the Riddle family's successor.
In addition, when Hattie was born, the Riddle Group separately gave her a share. However, because she was young, according to the law, she could only inherit that share when she turned 18.
Currently, that share is also in the hands of the man she called father.
Hattie wanted to regain the shares that belonged to her and her mother, which was why she worked so hard.
Leon sat on the couch with his utensils, eating with Hattie.
The assistant came forward with some documents and looked at Hattie with some hesitation. Leon put down his chopsticks and loosened his tie, "Say it!"
The assistant said solemnly, "The shares held by the second young master are somewhat unexpected."
"Second Madam and Miss Hattie's shares, plus... when Daphne and Maddox were brought back, according to tradition, they were each given five percent. Together, the total exceeds 35 percent."
Hattie's hand holding the spoon stopped, and her slender fingers trembled.
When the twins were brought back, her mother had just died, and Hattie was suffering in the juvenile detention center. Under such circumstances, Daphne actually gave them five percent of the shares...
The assistant looked at Hattie, worried that the young girl couldn't handle the blow.
But soon, Hattie regained her composure and continued to eat as if nothing had happened.
Leon's eyes were cold.
Thirty-five percent was a dangerous number.
As the head of the Riddle Corporation, Leon only had forty percent.
Maddox held ten percent, Daphne held five percent, and the remaining ten percent was in the hands of other shareholders.
If Maddox and Daphne make another mistake, the head of the Riddle Corporation may really have to change.
Leon smiled.
It really was a big game!
They had been planning to become the true owner of the Riddle family for more than a decade, and had quietly arrived at the current situation.
The existence of the twins was probably to be able to openly occupy the Riddle Corporation!
Leon turned to Hattie, "Go and find her, relax, okay?"
"No!" Hattie put down her chopsticks, "Brother, I'm full, I'm going to continue read the materials."
She would pay any price for this!
She was indeed a disgusting madwoman!
Selena threw the document aside, clapped her hands, and began writing a letter with a pen.
Leia was worried, "Madam Selena, I asked Mr. Jordan, the current situation of the Riddle family is very unfavorable for Miss Hattie. Can we help her?"
Although she knew that Selena couldn't just ignore Hattie, she couldn't help but want to rush to the Riddle family and kill that pair of adulterers and traitors when she thought about the girl's current situation.
Selena was writing the letter seriously and didn't answer Leia's question.
After Selena finished writing the letter and put it in an envelope, she handed it to Leia, "Let someone deliver it to Leon."
Leia looked at the envelope in front of her and was dazed.
Her first reaction was why Madam Selena didn't call Mr. Riddle and had to send a letter?
But soon, Leia realized what was going on and took the letter, running out, "I'll personally deliver it!"
Selena always had a purpose in what she did.
This letter was obviously to help Leon with Hattie.
After Leia left, Selena sat at the table and pondered for a moment. She soon stood up and walked downstairs, staring blankly at the sky in the distance in the garden.
A pair of slender arms wrapped around her waist from behind. Then, a gentle voice fell in her ear, "Leon is not easy to deal with. That girl will be fine."
Selena smiled, "I know, I'm just thinking about how his ambition dares to be so great..."
