“Alright; when the time comes, Susic and Sean will be the best–looking kids there.”
Ruby genuinely adored those two children.
Meanwhile, in the study, Waylon laid a set of share certificates on the table.
Flynn stayed quiet, while Baron’s brow furrowed slightly.

“Dad, what are you doing? If you’re giving shares to Natalie, then you should call her in.”
Baron could provide for Natalie just fine, and she didn’t exactly need him to; but if she was returning to the Stone family, then it was only right for them to give her shares. Even if Waylon hadn’t brought it up, as her husband, Baron would have insisted.
Waylon chuckled when he heard this.
“Natalie’s shares, of course, I’ll speak to her directly about. These are for you.”
Baron froze, eyes widening in surprise.
“For me?”
Instinctively, he glanced at Flynn.
If Natalie hadn’t come back, the whole Stone family would belong to Flynn.
Now that she had returned, Flynn could accept giving Natalie a share; but handing them to him–an outsider–didn’t seem right.
Flynn read the doubt in Baron’s eyes and smiled.
“Aren’t you the Stone family’s son–in–law now? Since you’re family, you get shares too. What’s wrong, Mr. Baron–our shares not good enough for you?”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
Baron’s voice came out low.
The Gunns and the Stones were both century–old families; in fact, the Stone family’s financial power was greater. But from the day he was born, his biological father had schemed to swallow the shares that rightfully belonged to him and his mother. Now, Waylon and Flynn were offering him shares simply because he had married in–how could his heart not be moved?

“Dad, I don’t need these. Give them to Natalic instead.”
This gesture alone was enough for him to accept Waylon and Flynn as true family.
But Waylon was firm.

“They’re yours, and that’s final. If you really see us as family, then don’t refuse. Natalie and the children have their shares too. Once Flynn finds a wife and has kids, his wife and children will have theirs as well. Our Stone family doesn’t have that many shareholders–most are distant branches. And right now, plenty of people are eyeing the position of family head. The internal struggle is no less vicious than in your Gunn family. If you want to protect my daughter and my grandchildren, you must hold shares in the Stone Group. So you have to take them.”
Flynn sighed, stepped forward, and clapped Baron on the shoulder.
“Baron, the Stone family isn’t peaceful. The truth behind my sister being switched at birth is still unresolved, and my parents want her to return now. Once her identity as the Stone heiress is made public, there’ll be danger and trouble to follow. In business, our family has to stand as one. Whatever your plans, to the outside world you’re already our son–in–law; you need to have Stone family shares. Don’t worry–I don’t mind you holding them. To be honest, aside from the family’s businesses, I already have private ventures of ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ
Hearing their sincerity, Baron’s eyes brimmed with emotion.
my own.”
He suddenly realized that the kinship and affection he had never once received, after so many twists and turns, fate had returned to him in this way.
And he knew–it was all because of Natalie.
“Dad, Brother… from now on, I’m a part of the Stone family. Whatever you plan to do, I’ll follow your lead.”
He took the share certificate in hand.
Just then, Flynn’s phone buzzed.
He glanced down; his eyes narrowed.
“Dad, something’s happened.”
“What is it? ”
Waylon knew his son, Flynn wouldn’t wear that expression unless it was serious.
“Our shipment at sea was hijacked. No leads so far. That batch has to be delivered to our

partners in a week. If we can’t make the deadline, we’ll owe triple in penalties.”
Waylon’s face darkened at once.
“Which waters? ”
“Near international waters.”
Baron’s gaze sharpened.
“Dad, Brother Can you tell me what kind of shipment it is?”
“Yes.”
Waylon handed him the manifest.

Baron scanned it –everything was legal business. Only then did he say, “Leave it to me. I’ll send someone out near international waters; I’ll have it back within two days. Don’t worry about it.”
That was when Flynn suddenly remembered who Baron really was.
