Henry was utterly clueless. "Mom has cancer?" he recalled, not noticing any signs when she visited him this morning.
"Yes. But I won't tell you about it now. You just need to know that our family is falling apart; our parents have split up. The Donovan Group company is also facing changes. Everything is changing so fast around you, Henry. I suggest you open your eyes, mind, and heart..."
"Sis—" Henry was at a loss for words, stunned by his sister's words. He could only gaze into her eyes, pressing his lips tighter to stop himself from speaking, as anything he might say now seemed useless.
Since Henry remained silent, Bella continued, "You still remember Grandpa's mention of the new owner of the Donovan Group, right?"
"Yes!"
"Alright, I won't keep it from you. I'm the largest shareholder in the Donovan Group. I own sixty percent of the company's shares..." Bella paused momentarily to hold back laughter, observing her brother's amusing expression.
