“When I think about everything I did to you, I regret it so much, so…”

Katelyn waited patiently for Neil to continue his conversation. It seemed they were finally getting to the point. But what could Neil possibly want that justified such a heartfelt appeal?

Neil hesitated for a moment before speaking again.

“I want to transfer all my assets to you. I hope you can take good care of my grandmother.”

Katelyn was startled by his statement. She stared at Neil, taking in his grave expression, and wondered if she had misunderstood him. After his considerable efforts with the Wheeler Group, was he truly intending to hand it all over to her? Or was he probing something? Doubts flooded Katelyn’s mind. Regaining her composure, she responded promptly, “Alright, when would you like to proceed with the transfer? I’m ready to handle it now.”

She was curious to see how long Neil would be able to maintain this act.

A look of relief flickered across Neil’s face as he said, “Thank you, Katelyn, for agreeing to my proposal.”

For Neil, Katelyn’s acceptance seemed to be a form of redemption for his previous misdeeds.

Without hesitation, Neil pulled out his phone and instructed his assistant, “Bring all my asset documents here and prepare them for transfer to Katelyn.”

Katelyn was surprised. Was he really serious about this?

She fixed her eyes on him and said, “Fine, after the transfer, we’ll have it officially notarized.”

This would ensure that Neil had no opportunity to backtrack. Once notarized, the transfers would become legally binding, providing double protection.

Neil expressed no resistance. He simply nodded and said, “Okay.” Yet, Katelyn suspected some underlying deception. Glancing at her watch, she noted it was nearly two in the afternoon. Dizziness from lack of sleep washed over her, and she remembered that she still needed to check on Ashlyn.

Katelyn then suggested, “Let’s handle this tomorrow. I have some commitments today, so you’ll have time to get the documents ready.” She was determined to uncover Neil’s true motives. She couldn’t understand how Neil had suddenly become so generous overnight, just because he believed he was dying.

Neil didn’t protest and agreed passively, saying, “Alright, you can arrange everything. That way, when I’m no longer alive, my grandmother will be well cared for, and I’ll have peace of mind.”

Katelyn was momentarily at a loss for words. She had lost track of how many times Neil had left her speechless today. Now, she chose not to engage further. She turned and walked away.

Neil watched her go, a subtle, mocking grin forming on his face. He wondered if Katelyn truly believed she could control him so effortlessly, unwittingly falling right into his trap.

Vincent, who had been waiting in the hallway, sighed in relief when he saw Katelyn return safely. He asked, “Was there any danger?”

His question surprised Katelyn. Vincent wasn’t asking about the situation in general but was specifically concerned about her safety. For him, the specifics of the situation were secondary to her well-being. Katelyn’s eyes flickered as she contained her emotions. She answered softly, “Neil is planning to transfer all his assets to me.”
