NovelBook376 A Signature to Let Go
Lily had been about to let her tears fall freely when she heard footsteps behind her.
She quickly wiped her eyes and turned around, forcing a composed expression. “James? Why did you
cin?”
“To sign.”
Without another word, he handed her the document he held.
That was when she saw the bold title at the top:
Share Transfer Agreement
James currently owned 28% of Luke Group. According to the agreement, he was transferring 14% of it to her.
7
He also held a 36% stake in the most popular short video platform in the country and this document
listed that 18% would be transferred to her.
There were other holdings, too: 8% in a trending online shopping platform, 6% in a food delivery app, 7% in an Al
tech company, and so on...
The further she read, the wider her eyes grew.
How did he have this many assets?
The platforms he’d invested in any one of them could generate more yearly dividends than most people could
spend in multiple lifetimes.
And he was giving her half of it all...
There were also full ownership titles for an entire office building and several luxury villas in prlocations.
By the tshe reached the end, Lily honestly suspected that signing this agreement would turn her into the
richest woman in the country.
But this was all his. Hard-earned, fought for. She couldn't take it.
She pushed the agreement back toward him in a rush. “James, that 100 million you already had transferred to
“Sign it.”
His voice was deep and unwavering. “After we're divorced, you'll marry Jackson. Consider this your dowry from
the Luke family.”
James knew Jackson loved her!
But the He family’s power and influence weren't as simple as they appeared. He feared that once Lily married in,
she might be looked down on - even wronged, with no one to protect her.

With wealth in her hands, she'd never be at anyone’s mercy. She'd always have the power to walk away.
There's really no need.”
To Lily, Jackson was still the boy who once depended on her. She had never once thought of marrying
him.
She hadn’t even considered remarrying at all.
The town she planned to move to had low living costs. The 100 million James had given her, with interest, would
be more than enough to live freely with her child.
After a long pause, she spoke sincerely. “I don’t need much. | can earn money on my own. You really don’t need
to givehalf your fortune.”
“This marriage wasn’t what you wanted. If anything, you're the one who got hurt in it. You don’t owea
thing.”
“Lily, this was Grandfather's idea.”
When she still wouldn't sign, James had to bring out the heavy artillery. “He said, if you don’t sign this, he won't
approve the divorce.”
“I want us to finalize the divorce quickly. So sign it.”
To take half of his wealth
Lily couldn’t imagine anything more shameless.
She hesitated, then said softly, “Maybe | should go talk to your grandfather. If | tell him it was my idea to divorce,
I'm sure he'll agree to it even if | don’t sign.”
But that whole story - James had made it up.
He couldn't let her go talk to Henry.
So he said flatly, “I already told him you're eager to marry Jackson. And he said it doesn’t matter who wants the
divorce- unless you sign this agreement, he won't allow it.”.
“Lily, let's stop wasting each other's time. | want our lives to move forward again.”
Stop wasting time...
That struck her heart like a blade.
She knew James wasn’t greedy. And he was generous. But in high society, people placed huge value on shares
and ownership.
For him to hand over this much... he must want the divorce badly.
Her fingers brushed her lower belly without thinking.
If she refused to sign and Henry truly

So she would sign.
With this many shares, she didn’t even want to calculate how much the annual dividends would be.
This kind of wealth
she could raise not just one or two children, but ten or more, and still never run out.
She'd ask Ashton for James’s bank account and return most of the money to him once the dividends came
in.

James watched her in silence, eyes fixed on every stroke of her pen.
And when she finished the last character, the calm he had been forcing all along cracked at the seams.
His eyes reddened
and he couldn't stop it.
