Chapter 196:
After saying that, Jewell swept out of the room with his bodyguards trailing behind.
Della’s eyes were filled with resentment as she watched him leave. Only when she turned her gaze to Amelia did a genuine smile appear on her face. “Amelia, I’m thankful you walked in when you did. Otherwise, I might have lost my head and done something I might regret p>
“Della, promise me you won’t act out of anger next time. Doing something like that just to get even is never worth it,” Amelia replied.
Those words seemed to sink in, and Della promised to keep her temper in check from now on. Her attention then drifted to the stack of documents, and her voice grew soft. “When did Wyatt hand those shares over to you? I never heard a thing p>

Standing up to Jewell was never an issue for Amelia, but talking to Della about this matter left her uneasy. After all, sixteen percent of the company’s stock carried heavy weight. To avoid any misunderstanding, she quickly said, “This is only temporary, Della. The moment Wyatt wakes up, I’ll hand everything back to him. I swear p>
Seeing Amelia’s anxious expression, Della squeezed her hand and gave a reassuring nod. “There’s no accusation here. You and Wyatt are married. What’s his is naturally yours, too p>
The relief that washed over Amelia showed plainly in her eyes. But then, when she thought about Jewell’s mention of the shareholder meeting, her worries began to resurface.
Davin, standing nearby, was also visibly anxious. If anyone knew how things worked in the Stewart Group, it was him. “A majority of our shareholders are Stewarts. If Mr. Stewart manages to sway them, the CEO seat might truly be claimed by him p>
That made Amelia’s heart pound, though she kept her composure on the surface. After thinking about the matter for a while, she turned to Davin. “All of them share the Stewart name. Wyatt does, too. I just can’t accept that they’d ignore everything he’s done for this company p>
She resolved then and there to speak with each of the key shareholders herself. Before leaving, Amelia handed Davin another job: he was to buy up any scattered shares of the Stewart Group.
Davin’s brow furrowed. “There aren’t many unclaimed shares left. Even if we gather them all, they will only amount to about five percent p>
That left the whole effort looking a little pointless. He didn’t spell out his doubts directly, but Amelia picked up on them right away.
She explained softly, “I just want to shake up the Stewart Group’s stock price. That’s what matters p>
When she’d been at the hospital, Amelia had urged Davin to stabilize the company’s situation. Back then, she had never anticipated Jewell would strike so soon. Now, her strategy had changed. She hoped for chaos in the boardroom, believing that uncertainty would force the shareholders to stop fixating on who held the CEO position.
