Chapter 194 Back for the Assets?
Though Norman was displeased by her actions, he did not comment on it. Instead, he sat right in front of
her and smiled at her warmly. “Liz, why did you suddenly decide on a divorce a while back? Have you
thought about telling me about your decision? If he doesn’t treat you well, I will stand up for you.”
“Standup for me?”
When I was pushing for a divorce, the entire news went viral online. Everyone in the country, hell, even
the entire world knew about it. On top of that, he was at the dinner party. Do I still need to tell him about
it? Do I even need to inform him personally about it?
She knew very well that Norman did not want their relationship to be too tense. Otherwise, he would not
have said such sweet words and invited her back.
In my opinion, there are two reasons for him doing this now. Firstly, he worries about Grandma’s support
for me in the Wickam family. Because of her influential position, he’s worried that she might not give

Linda a chance. Secondly, I am Iris. Suppose he really annoys me, with my capabilities as a lawyer, as
long as I collaborate with his opponents and file a lawsuit, I will be able to make them compensate with
an inordinate amount of money. After all… even Gareth paid that much, let alone him. I bet he’s wary of
me now.
She remained silent, with no intentions of replying to him, making him feel slightly awkward. Her reaction
triggered Linda’s anger.
At this moment, Rose brought the final two dishes to the table. However, as soon as she saw Elisa sitting
in the host’s seat, she immediately froze in annoyance. Does she still think that this is her house? How
rude of her? Does she even understand social norms?
Nevertheless, she could not utter any complaints about that because they were recording their
conversation the entire time.
After she placed the two dishes on the table, she chuckled. “You’ve arrived just at the right time, Liz. I’ve
finished cooking, but my techniques might be slightly unrefined because I haven’t cooked for a while.

Why don’t you give it a try first?”
Linda passed over some cutlery to her with a smile. “Here you go, Liz.”
Elisa took it from her and began helping herself to the food at ease. She had no plans of saying anything
unnecessary.
Nevertheless, the rest of the family planned to find a topic for their conversation. After all, they planned to
release the recordings to the public eventually.
Starting with a sigh, Norman said, “Liz, are you holding grudges against us?”
Elisa returned a calm smile before replying, “Of course not. After Dad’s passing, you’ve been temporarily
managing the company on his behalf. No matter what, I should be grateful to you.”
Upon hearing that, the remaining three family members changed their expressions immediately.
Temporarily managing. This is clearly my company now. Since when have I been temporarily managing

it?
Nevertheless, he could not be bothered to correct her. Instead, he merely smiled back at her. “Hahaha!
Liz, you are being too polite! We are a family; there’s no need to be so precise with your words!”
Elisa nodded. “You’re right, Uncle Norman, but we must be clear on the details. This time around, I also
have something to discuss with you.”
Linda was startled to hear that. The reason for asking her to come back today is to gain control of the
situation. When we release this recording, we will gain the upper hand. Yet, she’s aiming directly for the
assets as soon as she returns?
Even Rose and Norman’s faces darkened. However, the next moment, he asked with a smile, “Is that
so? What’s there to discuss?”
Elisa only replied after she finished munching. “When Dad passed, I remembered you said that I was too
young, so you will manage the company on my behalf so it won’t go bankrupt. I even transferred my
shares to you.”
