Chapter 1350
Ethan kissed Sophia on the cheek and reassured her, "My parents have some savings, and we can still manage at
the company. Getting your affairs sorted out is my top priority. Don't worry, I'm willing to endure a little stress. And,
even if the company runs into trouble, you won't just abandon me, will you?"
Sophia was deeply moved by Ethan's words. "I'll write up an IOU. Once we secure the shares, we'll split the
dividends fifty -fifty."
Ethan smiled and accepted her proposal.
Soon, he transferred eight million dollars into Sophia's account, and Sophia wasted no time reaching out to Albert
to finalize the share transfer agreement.

Stella was rendered speechless upon hearing the details." So, Walter asked Hylda for two million dollars, yet Hylda
asked Albert for five million? And Albert sold eight million worth of shares from a shell corporation to Sophia? What
kind of financial game are they playing here?"
"Now I know where you acquired this knack for scheming," Keegan remarked.
Stella shot a glare at him and said. "I'm different, okay? I only screw outsiders while they screw over their own."
'She does have a point,' thought Keegan.
"Since Walter wants cash, should we consider a heist?" Stella whispered after a moment of contemplation.
Keegan's eyelids twitched when he heard that. "Can you come up with something more... legal?"
"They're doing an illegal trade. It's not like they'd report us to the police if it gets stolen," Stella scoffed.
"Robbing people of stolen money is still robbery," Keegan countered.
Stella did not bother to argue further and said, "Fine. I'll do it myself!"
However, Keegan could not let her embark on such a dangerous journey alone. Thus, he used his connections to
uncover the location of Walter and Hylda's transaction. He called in a few specially trained security personnel from
the company's security team to aid them in their mission.
The transaction was completed in the dead of night. Walter was making his getaway with the money when Keegan's
armed team appeared and took the money from him.
Seeing his lifesaving money vanish before his eyes, Walter got so agitated that he coughed up blood. Following that,
his vision blurred, and he lost consciousness.
Soon, two suitcases filled with money were delivered to Stella and Keegan.

"Whoa. Two million dollars sure is a lot," said Stella, as she
attempted to lift one of the suitcases, which weighed at least thirty pounds.
She then clicked her tongue and said, "How do TV shows manage to stuff a billion dollars into those tiny suitcases?"
"They probably use Zimbabwean dollars," Keegan jested.
Stella could not help but roll her eyes. She proceeded to load the suitcases onto the car and said, "Let's get this
money into the bank."
"Unlawful possession of someone else's property can lead to legal repercussions, especially with large sums of
money. It carries a minimum sentence of two years. However, what you've done is not unlawful possession but
robbery. You can be sent to jail even if it's for a relatively small amount," warned Keegan.
Stella remained unfazed. "Then, feel free to call the authorities."
Keegan had no response.
Stella took the money to the bank, but she did not deposit it into her personal account. Instead, she directed the
funds into the donation account of Eastern Alley Welfare Center.
