Georgia froze for a second, instinctively wanting to refuse.
She still needed to check out the investment she'd made in Jane to see if it was reliable. Jane had claimed she was starting a company, so Georgia had handed over more than half of her private savings—roughly forty million.
Of course, all of this had been done behind her husband’s back.
She knew her husband had no fondness for Jane, so she didn’t dare let him find out.
But she couldn’t just sit back and watch her resources dwindle.
With Ariana on the verge of becoming a vegetable and her three grandchildren distant, she had no choice but to plan ahead—investing in what she believed was the right heir. Who would’ve thought that after lying unconscious for half a month, Ariana would suddenly wake up?
Gilbert noticed his wife’s dazed expression and asked, "What’s wrong?"
Georgia snapped out of it, forcing a weak smile. "N-Nothing. Just... relieved that Ariana finally woke up."
Gilbert nodded in understanding.
He knew exactly how she felt—he’d been overwhelmed with emotion himself when he heard the news.
He studied her for a moment before adding, "While you’re at the hospital tomorrow, try to bond with the grandkids a little. Especially Kevin."
The sudden remark caught Georgia off guard.
Frowning, she asked, "Kevin? What about Kevin?"
Spending time with her grandchildren was one thing, but her husband’s words carried an odd weight—as if there was more to it.
Upon hearing this, Gilbert's lips curled into a faint smile. "There's something I haven't told you," he said. "Lambert has agreed to let Kevin inherit the White Group in the future. His children will also carry the White surname."
This had actually happened several days ago.
At the time, Gilbert had forgotten to mention it to Georgia.
"What?"
In that instant, Georgia was completely stunned! She stared at Gilbert in disbelief, her eyes brimming with anxiety and an involuntary surge of anger.
The family empire was being handed over to a grandson-in-law...
The news hit Georgia like a tidal wave, leaving her utterly disoriented.
If the group was going to the grandson-in-law anyway, then why had she bothered investing to help Jane establish her own company? Had all her efforts been for nothing? The thought made Georgia's face darken with displeasure.
...
Early morning.
Warm sunlight streamed through the window.
Ariana blinked sleepily, then slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was her eldest son, who had already woken up at some point and was now sitting on a small stool, quietly reading a book.
A helpless yet affectionate smile instantly softened Ariana's eyes.
She beckoned to her son.
