There were so many reasons that resulted in this tragedy, but they were mostly linked with the word "greed." Joie was a figure of pathos, and he was innocent. However, the cause of his tragedy was William Lake because of his greed, and he was doomed that day.
But at the same time, Joie also caused his own tragedy too. He was so paranoid that he got to where he was. There were many such people in the world, too idealized, but forgot that people come to this world for spiritual practice, and the reality is not sweet. It would stab them like a knife and then sprinkle salt on the wound if necessary. They were in pain, crying, struggling, fighting against that, which is alright, but how to face reality rationally is the root of spiritual practice.
Because it is a practice, they should always believe that what God has given them is never an insurmountable obstacle. The reason why they cannot pass through such tragedies is that their practice is not enough, and they give up and surrender.
Irish never wanted to suspect Joie because she had read his information. His parents died early, and he lived in this world very lonely, but it was her who had seen the clue. She saw him show the wound on his arm and his nails, apparently washed with by the cleaner because there was uncleaned red nail polish under his nail.
She hesitated at that time, and even if Joie played as a woman, he would not be suspected by others. But she didn't make such a decision to disclose her clue immediately, hoping her judgment would be wrong.
When the matter ended, Irish did not intend to stay in the Lake's mansion. As for what Henry Lake would do with William, it had nothing to do with her. On the contrary, she looked at Joseph without a trace, intending to hasten him to leave.
While Joseph remained silent like a statue and pressed himself a little bit when he collided with her eyes, motioning her to be calm.
She didn't know what Joseph was waiting for, but she had to hitch his ride home.
And Henry looked really angry this time, and after scolding William, he took a breath, asking coldly, "Are you wrong?"
William trembled, saying that he was.
"You have never been burdened with any pressure since you were a child. You are a shareholder of the Lake, but you have not fulfilled any of the shareholders' obligations. It is because I have indulged you too much that you have been allowed to make such an unscrupulous mistake." Henry's tone was even colder, "From now on, as Chairman of the Runestone Group, I announce that you will be deprived of your 2 percent share of the Runestone as a minor punishment."
William was startled, saying. "Henry."
"Don't force me to withdraw all your shares!" Henry yelled and could not bear his anger.
William Lake shut up suddenly.
"All present here are members of the Lake family, and you all have shares in our business, which could bear witness to my decision." Henry said, looking at Joseph, "Joseph, the decision takes effect from this moment. This time thanks to Isabel, otherwise the family would not be so peaceful, so I decided to transfer the 2% shares to her, and you will announce this decision at the shareholders' meeting early tomorrow morning.
"Okay." Joseph was not surprised, not knowing whether this incident was in his expectations or not. In short, he did not even move his eyebrows.
But Shirley was startled, "What? Give her a 2% share? You are too unfair!"
Henry had changed his will to add a property to Irish, and at that time, he increased her shares so that Irish was one with the most shares among several children, how could she have much more?
Henry was displeased, yelling at Shirley, "If not for Irish, you may still be scared and stay in the hospital!"
Shirley dared not retort, but it could be seen she was resentful.
"Roy, you are the eldest son. What do you think?" Henry looked at his silent son.
Roy was always immersed in his own world, and he was not interested in their family's affairs, and he did not want to get any shares from the Lake's. He pinched the cigarette butt in the ashtray and said, "I have no problem with your decision, dad."
"Silly son, you..."
"How about William?" Henry interrupted Shirley and sank into his voice.
William raised his head. "I have no opinion about the shares and your daughter, Isabel. As long as they are not in the hands of outsiders, I have no objection. Henry, you are right. Thanks to Isabel, this time, otherwise we do not know what kind of trouble would happen. The shares are supposed to belong to her."
"Joseph, how about you?"
Joseph answered with a faint smile, "That's okay."
"Okay, inform the lawyer tomorrow morning." Henry made up his mind. At this time, Irish slowly said, with a cool tone, "I don't care about it."
It made Henry's face twitch, looking at Irish, he was at a loss. Irish put the cup on the table, "The reason I came to your house was that you mistakenly thought you saw my mother, and that's why I went to check it out. Now the truth is clear, that is to say, if I had known that the reason was that, I absolutely would not interfere in this matter, so I do not want your family's things. You can give to whoever you like, and I do not want to have anything to do with the Lake family."
This was her true thinking, and it was because of Joseph's remark that she began to look into it. Now she thought it was Henry's thought of her mother that day, and he mistakenly thought he had seen her mother.
"Isabel, you are my daughter. How can we have no relationship?" Henry felt guilty about Irish, and he couldn't get angry with her, no matter how hurtful her words were.
"That's my decision. You want to give it to me, but I don't want it." Irish did not want to spend more time biting her teeth and getting up, looking at Joseph, "Can you send me home?"
Apparently, she was defiant, especially when she saw Shirley nearly bite her.
