Ex-Wife's Revenge (Alaricka) novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149

The assistant paused and said, “Ms. Huston isn’t needed either? The organizers are in a tough spot. I heard they only agreed to give access because of you. If we add one more person, maybe you should ask Ms. Huston what she thinks?”

Kieran said, “No need, she already joined the competition.”

The assistant quickly changed their tone: “Okay, I’ll go reply to the Mcintosh Piano Competition organizers.”

Kieran put down his phone and quickly started the car. The car smoothly drove onto the avenue.

As soon as Alarieka got up, she saw Tamika in the kitchen making breakfast.

She sat at the table yawning, feeling bored and watching the TV.

She grabbed the remote and casually changed the channel.

Entertainment Big News: “Hi everyone, we are Entertainment Big News. Today, Kieran, the chairman and president of Kierose Group, transferred five percent of the company’s shares to pianist Roschelle. Now, Ms. Whitaker has become one of the shareholders of Kierose Group. Congratulations to them, this lovely couple-”

Alarieka’s fingers paused for a few seconds, then quickly moved to the next one when she realized.

Tamika came over with two bowls of oatmeal and handed them to her.

Alarieka lowered her head and stirred the oatmeal in the bowl with a

spoon.

Tamika looked at her face carefully and said, “Five percent of the shares isn’t a lot. The novels I read are all fifty or sixty percent. Kieran was pretty stingy too.”

Alaricka pulled at the corner of her mouth and shook her head helplessly, “Kierose Group’s market value was already over fifty billion. Five percent of the shares was a lot, enough for a lot of people to live worry–free for several lifetimes.”

Tamika mumbled, “I–I thought it was just a little, is it really this much?”

Her voice got quieter and quieter: “Well, he’s actually pretty big… but still really stingy, we don’t need to be jealous.”

A feeling of helplessness welled up in Alarieka’s heart. She took a bite of oatmeal and said, “Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore.”

the Argent’s villa.

Roschelle sat across from Kieran, sipping her milk and asked him quietly, “Kier, did you pick up Alarieka yesterday?”

Kieran said quietly, “Just happened to run into him, so I brought him back on the way.”

Roschelle’s smile at the corners of her mouth was a bit stiff: “No wonder you came back pretty late yesterday.”

Kieran handed over the fried egg and said, “I’ve been busy lately. You should go to bed early, don’t wait up for me.”

Roschelle bit her lip: “We had to wait.”

Wallace cleared his throat, “Kier, I know guys should focus on their

careers, but Rose is pregnant now. You should take care of her and stop messing around with those shady people outside.”

Roschelle pressed her lips together and carefully looked up at Kieran’s face.

Kieran’s face looked calm, couldn’t tell what he was feeling, and had no idea what he thought about what Wallace said.

She felt a bit nervous inside.

Wallace knocked on the table and coughed a few times, “Since you already transferred the shares of Kierose Group to Rose, the engagement should be scheduled now. Last time wasn’t good enough, so this time we have to get everything ready, guard the door, and don’t let anyone in who shouldn’t be here.”

When the last chaotic and noisy engagement party and birthday banquet were mentioned, Wallace’s eyes suddenly turned cold.

If the Argent family hadn’t stepped in on time, we really wouldn’t have been able to shut the media up, and everything would’ve been exposed.

Roschelle heard that and smiled, feeling relieved.

Yeah, everyone said where the money is, that’s where the love is.

Kieran gave her way more than he gave Alarieka.

That was five percent of Kierose Group’s shares, and even if she just sat around spending money, it would’ve been enough to keep her rich for generations.

This was something Alarieka didn’t have.

Thinking of this, Roschelle looked up at Kieran, her eyes full of admiration and affection, mixed with a shy girlishness.
