Chapter 634 
Fred answered back, “It’s all your fault! What were you doing with candles anyway!” 
Angel, now left with nothing and beaten by Fred, burst into tears. 
After the hotel’s fire department arrived and put out the fire, Angel sifted through the remnants and found nothing. She broke down crying. 
“My money! My jewel 
Angel was hysterical, her face streaked with tears and swollen. 
When the news broke, Valerie saw it and shook her head. Serves her right; she thought. She had wamed Angel to sell those items quickly, but Angel didn’t listen and chose to show off instead. 
Now, she was suffering the consequences. It was a pity about the jewelry and paintings, though. 
Valerie didn’t pay much attention to Angel’s sinuation; she was entirely focused on the industries. 

During her visit to the extate, she made an unexpected discovery. It was actually a wine estate with a large vineyard in the back 
Due to Lincoln’s poor management, the brand had been rained, and it could now only cater to the low–end market. 
Despite this, the profits were dismal, and the estate was running at a loss, 
If it weren’t for the Noria Group’s financial support, it would have gone under long ago 
Valerie thought that if she could find the right way to revive it, it could become a significant source of income. She had an idea. 
After Valerie returned, people frequently approached her, either greeting her or subity probing her about her plans. 
Valerie knew that these people couldn’t sit still anymore. When Matthew disappeared, they all rallied around Lincoln. 
Even Charles was pushed aside. But now things were completely different With Matthew’s return, they were uneasy and didn’t dare to make any big moves 
With Valerie taking over Lincoln’s businesses, everyone speculated she might be planning to senle scores with them, making them all the more 
nervous 
Seeing Valerie at the estate, with many people coming and going daily, made them restless. 
They privately asked Charles for information, but he only said, “When Mrs. Grant has time, the will reach out to you” 
This made them even more anxious. Il Valerie came after them for retribution, would they also be kicked out of the Noria Group! 

This thought made them nervous. Sensing this, Valerie promptly called for a meeting 
In the conference room, several high–ranking officials were uneasy. Although Valerie herself might not seem intimidating, she represented Matthew, and her words carried his wright. 
If she decided to hold them accountable, they would have no excuse 
Before Valerie could speak, they began to express their kiyalty. 
“Mrs. Grant, we were misled by Lincoln. Now we realize our mistake!” 
“Please give us another chance, Mrs. Grant. We worked hard alongside Mr. Grant to build this business!” 
“Yes, in those circumstances, we had to choose the advantageous side. Are you planning to settle accounts now!” 
Valerie united slowly and said, “You’ve misunderstood. We’re not holding any grudges. Today, I want to talk about the businesses under Lincoln They are now under my control, 
“From now on, any business that previously involved him will be handled directly by me. As for past matters, since everyone was misled by Lincoln and no major mistakes were made, we’ll let it go. 
“But moving forward, everything will follow the rules” 
Hearing this, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. Valerie raised an eyebrow, saying. “Thope everyone understands that manual support is crucial. We rise and fall together? 
“Absolutely! Mrs. Grant, now I understand why Mr. Grant values you so much. You have a great vision!”

“Mrs. Grant, you’re magnanimous. We look forward to your guidance. 
Valerie smiled and said, “Alright, if there’s nothing else, let’s get back to work.” 
Once everyone left, Charles asked. “Mrs. Grant, you’re just going to let them off?” 
“What else can we do? We need stability now. The Noria Group can’t afford any upheaval. As long as they recognize their mistakes and acknowledge Mauber as the leader, it’s enough. 
Forgive when possible. Any further conflict would only harm us.” 
Charles understood and thought, Valerie lacked business acument Ballshit 
Lincoln being ousted from the Grant family was a cautionary tale. If the Grant family could abandon Lincoln, they could certainly abandon these people. 
All they did was just for warning.
