Chapter 449 We’ll take it seriously
Everyone froze.
A moment later, Rouco was the first to react, suppressing his surprise and shivering, “James, this is no small thing, you don’t joke about it, we …… will take it seriously.”
“I have a total of over twenty percent of shares in my hands now, if you guys stay out of my business during this period of time, when I’m done avenging Angela, the four of you can share these shares equally.” James took in their greedy mouths and a sneer flashed across his handsome face.
In the gentry, kinship has long been weak, and only in those families with fewer heirs is there still some kinship.
Rouco coughed, his eyes full of excitement and surprise, but his face still trying to look like nothing was wrong, “Did you just say …… our four families?”
“Yes, all four of you. You’ll split these shares equally, our family will have no part in it.” James was bearded and looked very scruffy, but he spoke with exceptional composure and calm.
With one less family involved, several others will have a lot more shares.
The answer to his question was so definitive that Rouco could not hide his joy at the prospect of an equal share in James’s hands, no less than from the old man’s estate!
Raya wrinkled her nose, not used to seeing the faces of these people, they really don’t have any semblance of being elders, they are just a bunch of vampires.
“James, don’t be impulsive, think about it before you make a decision.” This was a Harvey family matter and Sean shouldn’t have interfered, but he couldn’t help himself.
“Hmm.” He’d thought about it long before the offer to put the Smith family out of business.
When he said that, Sean couldn’t say anything else, except that his eyes hid a little concern under the lenses.
But the Harvey family’s eldest daughter was not as happy as Rouco, “You’re not holding a small amount of shares that you can give to us?”
Not waiting for James to answer, she raised her voice a little and continued, “I don’t think you have any good intentions at all!”
James looked at her coldly, his bloodshot eyes both beady and cold, “If you don’t want it, give it up, there are plenty of people who do.”
“Big sister.” Rouco called out to the Harvey family’s eldest daughter in a lustful voice.
Harvey family’s eldest daughter ignored him and instead stared hard at James, “Instead of solving the human experimentation matter, you spend all your time thinking about avenging Angela, and when the bullying explodes along with the human experimentation, the Harvey Group will still be safe and sound?”
There are so many people watching the Harvey Group that if she lets him get away with it, it will collapse sooner or later.
When the time comes, what is the use of having more shares in their hands?
When the others heard this, the joy on their faces faded a little.
The matter of human experimentation was still unresolved and the army had not withdrawn from watching the Harvey family. If the Pearson family, the Delia family, the Brown family and the Smith family are forced into bankruptcy against the wishes of the Smith family, the situation for the Harvey family will only get worse with a few more enemies.
James had expected them to talk about human experimentation and wasn’t surprised, “If the people who broke the story about Harvey Group being involved in human experimentation really wanted to bring down Harvey Group, why would they wait until now?”
Judging from the fact that he/she was able to get him in jail and mobilize the military to spy on them, he/she is definitely capable of using this incident to bring down the Harvey Group.
But he or she doesn’t, which proves that the other person has ulterior motives.
It was something that had just occurred to him as well.
No one here is stupid and when they heard him say that, they understood.
Rouco smiled, joy bubbling up anew, “You are bent on avenging your lover, and we, the elders, cannot object. Now that you’ve thought about it, let’s do it. You should also drink less, it’s not good for your health.”
He made a few token remarks and turned to the Harvey family’s eldest daughter and said, “Sister, James wants to be alone now, we’re too intrusive here, so we’d better go back.”
“Wait a minute.” Harvey family’s eldest daughter said, “James, the guy who blew up the human experiment, do you know who it was?”
“If I knew who it was, do you think I’d be drinking at home?” James sneered.
That’s true.
Harvey family’s eldest daughter said nothing more and prepared to leave with the others.
“Wait!” James called out to them just as they were about to reach the door.
Harvey family’s eldest daughter stopped with some impatience, turned, and asked, “What is it?”
“If any of you can find out who that person behind this is and produce evidence, all the assets in my name, can be transferred to that person.” James no longer had the heart to be around the man behind the curtain, but he would not let go of the person who caused Angela’s death so easily either.
Anyone who had anything to do with Angela’s death should pay the price!
Harvey family’s eldest daughter didn’t say yes or no, but asked, “All the assets in your name? What else do you have besides those shares in the Harvey Group?”
James didn’t say anything, just kicked the empty bottle away from his feet and stumbled towards the revolving staircase.
Seeing this, Sean was really uneasy and pulled Raya, who didn’t know what she was thinking, and followed, leaving Rouco and the others to look at each other.
“James!” Sean tugged at James as he was about to enter the study, “Are you drunk?”
“I’m wide awake.” James broke free of his shackles, coughed twice, held on to the wall, and stumbled in crookedly.
The smell of alcohol was strong where he walked past.
Sean followed him, saying anxiously, “You’re only in your twenties now, you have a long life ahead of you. What are you going to do when you give everything away?”
James ignored him and walked over to his desk, pulled open a drawer and rummaged through it to find a file. He stood up, took the file and was about to walk out.
“James!” Sean stopped in front of him, frowning, “You’re drunk and it’s not a good time to be talking to someone about working together.”
“I’m not drunk.”
“…… Okay, let’s pretend you’re not drunk. But for something as important as this, the least you could do is to discuss it with Mrs. Harvey before you make a decision. Or maybe you should give it some serious thought for a day or two or three before you make a decision.”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
After all, this is everything James has saved up for over twenty years, and if it’s all gone, what will he do afterwards?
“I’ve thought this through, get out of the way.” James reached out and pushed him away, took the papers and walked out.
Sean cursed, his best friend was usually so sensible, how come he was now like a demon and wouldn’t listen to any advice?
He really wanted to leave it alone, but finally trotted after it. Industry News
“James! As your friend, I must warn you: you can’t get these things back if you give them away!”
James looked straight at him, a look of desolation welling up under his bloodshot eyes, “What use would I have of all this without Angela and the baby?”
He wouldn’t have survived if the idea of revenge hadn’t sustained him ……
