Chapter 305: Are You Going to Take Action against Master Summers?
However, Claire couldn’t get in touch with Sean at the critical moment. Since
other companies were competing with her for the mine, she had to make a move right away.
Luckily, with Frederick’s funds, it wasn’t much of a problem. But Paula
wanted to have a share all of a sudden. Claire was afraid that she would work
hard for nothing in the end and benefit others instead.
“Aunt Paula, I also want to count you in, but last night Mr. Frederick gave me a sum of money. He provides the money while I offer labor, and we will share the dividends in the end. So, it’s not up to me alone.”
Paula got more serious and said, “Claire, I have to invest in that mine, but not in the name of the Summers family. And I surely can’t take it by myself.
Just count me in, please.”
Well…
Paula had never begged Claire before. So it really threw Claire into a
dilemma.
Suddenly, something occurred to Claire and she lowered her voice as Paula did, “Aunt Paula, are you going to make a move against Master Summers?”
“Yes!”
Paula confided, “My father is not as healthy or mentally fit as he used to be, but the power is still in his hands. I want to secretly use the Summers family’s money to invest in that mine, sort of as a fallback for Kira. If
something happened to me in the future, I could at least not be worried about her basic living.”

If that was the case, there was no way Claire could refuse.
Even if she didn’t make that share of money herself, she would have to help
Paula this time.
“Alright. I’ll go talk to Mr. Frederick in a while and see if he’s willing to part with some of his shares, and if he’s not, I’ll give you my share.”
Paula hung up the phone gratefully. Claire let out a long breath, feeling
that the hardest thing in the world to refuse was a favor. She wished that
Frederick would be nice to talk to.

After dropping Belle and Jon off at school, Claire went straight to Wino
Garden. As expected, Frederick was already in the yard watering the flowers.
“Mr. Frederick,” Claire greeted.
She then told Frederick about Paula. Frederick’s brows furrowed at once and
he reminded her, “Claire, you have to think clearly about this matter. I’m
not petty, but Paula is not credible!”
“She’s credible.”
Claire said with confidence, “Since I arrived at Ascalon, she has been very good to me. She’s my great aunt and helped my mother back then. Even if I don’t care about the kinship between us, I still want to repay the favor she did to my mother back then.”
Frederick pursed his lips hard, and for a moment he didn’t know what to say.
He always felt that this matter was not that simple.
If possible, he hoped Claire wouldn’t get involved with the Summers family.

“Alright, Claire. Forget about kinship. You can’t give away any of your fifty–one percent of shares. As for the remaining forty–nine percent, it depends on how much capital she can put in, and I’ll divide the shares in
proportion to the capital.”
Claire knew that Frederick was thinking for her, so she was grateful to him in her heart, but she also believed that Paula wouldn’t ensnare her.
After discussing with Frederick, Claire called Paula. Soon, Paula remitted her the money, three hundred million!
Three hundred million wasn’t a lot to the Vanderbilt family, but to an ordinary family, it was an astronomical figure.
If not in the name of the company, quite literally, even Sean would not be
able to spare such a large sum of money for a while.
It seemed that Paula had been planning this for a long time.
Originally, Claire had thought that Paula would require several days to raise
the money. To her surprise, Paula remitted the money so quickly. Claire’s eyes darkened and she retracted her steps to Wino Garden.
It was cold in the fall. The moment Claire entered the door, she saw
Frederick playing shadowboxing in the yard.
Shadowboxing is good for strengthening the body. But in most people’s minds, it is something that only old people like to practice, and usually in the park square, you can only see some older people shadowboxing unhurriedly.
But Frederick, a man of fifty years old but with the face of a
thirty–year–old man, played the shadowboxing perfectly and proficiently in the yard. He must have practiced a lot to reach such a level.

the yard. He must have practiced a lot to reach such a level.
Claire even wondered if the reason Frederick looked so young and fit had something to do with his relentless daily shadowboxing.
“Claire.”
Julia, who stood watching, waved happily at her when she saw Claire standing

in the doorway.
Frederick followed the sound and saw her as well. Without stopping his movements, he gave Claire a slight nod. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Claire walked in and stood beside Julia, admiring Frederick’s shadowboxing
with interest.
“Julia, when you didn’t come to work with me, you came here every morning to watch Mr. Frederick shadowboxing?” asked Claire.
Julia wanted to deny it because Claire had disapproved of her affair with Frederick before. But Claire had been on her side last time, so Julia tacitly assumed in her mind that Claire was no longer resisting the affair.
Therefore, she didn’t deny it and said truthfully, “Well, yeah. Anyway, I don’t have anything to do. And it’s a pleasure to watch Mr. Frederick play shadowboxing.”

Suddenly, a stern line of sight landed on Julia’s face. Julia’s back jolted,
and she subconsciously shrunk her neck and said, “Claire, why are you looking at me like that? I know that there is a gap between me and Mr. Frederick,
but…”
Claire glared at her fiercely, interrupting her words, “Since you have the
time to come over every day to enjoy Mr. Frederick playing shadowboxing, why don’t you let him teach you and practice along with him?”
“What?”
Julia looked at Claire dumbfounded, and didn’t react for a while.
Was Claire blaming her for not launching a hard pursuit for Mr. Frederick?
Looking at the look in her eyes, Claire knew that Julia had misunderstood her meaning and shook her head as she explained, “Julia, shadowboxing has been passed down to the present day and has quite a few suitors, which is proof that it’s indeed a good thing. Look at Mr. Frederick, he’s fifty years old, but with a thirty–year–old look and physique. He’s obviously too much younger than his peers. Why would you rather watch it than practice it along with
him?”
Julia finally understood what Claire meant and spat out her tongue in embarrassment, replying, “Okay, I see. I’ll ask Mr. Frederick to teach me and I’ll practice it with him together from tomorrow on.”
While they were talking, Frederick happened to finish shadowboxing. He withdrew his hands and stood squarely on both feet, and after exhaling two breaths, he walked over to Julia and Claire.
“Claire, what’s the matter for your return?”
