A Trust-fund Baby novel Chapter 87

Sally suddenly realized that it was so. Old Lady Shaw and Dexter thought Diana had known Bruce for a long time.

The reason why Bruce was good to Diana and hired Diana to the Ray Group as a senior executive was because Judson saves Bruce’s life. If the Shaw family needed Bruce’s help, they should find Judson instead of Diana!

Sally knew the fact, but she would not tell Dexter. She had no affection for the Shaw family. And since she had married in to the Shaw family for twenty years, she was angry about them! Now Dexter came to her, she could do whatever she wanted.

Thinking of this, Sally sighed deliberately and put on a embarrassed look, “Dexter, it is not that I don't help, Diana had been working in the Ray Group for a few days. She only knows Mr. Bruce. I really can do nothing. I am a member of the Shaw family. Now the company is in trouble, how can I not help?”

Sally said seriously, Dexter almost believed her. But he knew Sally deliberately said so and wanted more chips.

To tell the truth, Dexter was angry in heart. Why should he lower his status to Sally? He didn't have to come here. But Robbie and Juliet screwed the thing. The Shaw’s company was about to go bankrupt, he could only come here to beg Sally!

Thinking of this, Dexter suppressed his anger, sighed deeply and said to her, “Sally, I apologize to you and Diana on behalf of the Shaw family. Please help to talk with Diana and Judson. If anything is needed, just tell me, I will pay!”

Sally gave Dexter a deep look. She understood the meaning of Dexter's last words. He thought she wanted more. In fact, Sally really had that thought. Judson and Diana remarried this morning, now they had no money. Since the Shaw family was willing to offer a house, why not take advantage of this opportunity to get a bigger one?

So Sally said, “Ok, Dexter, I will talk with Judson and Diana. But I am not sure whether they could help.”

Dexter nodded and said, “Well, thanks a lot. How about having dinner together tonight?”

Sally put a hand way, “No, now the company is busy. I will talk with them at night.”

“All right, thank you, Sally.” Dexter left.

More than ten minutes after Dexter left, Sally called Judson and asked him to come back with Diana to discuss.

In the living room, Sally told the words of Dexter to Judson and Diana. Then she let them to make the decision.

Judson thought they could not agree to help, but he wanted to know what was in Diana’s mind.

Judson asked, “Diana, what do you think?”

Diana frowned and said to Judson, “Judson, I know you have a grudge against the Shaw family, but they are all my relatives. I don't want to see the Shaw's company go bankrupt, help them. If it is difficult, we just can let it go. We'll do our best anyway.”

Judson frowned deeply, became it was him to make the Shaw family come into the current situation.

“Diana, Bruce and I are friends. If I talked to him, he might help. But are you really going to help the Shaw family? What have they done to you all these years? Have you forgotten?”Judson took a deep breath and said to Diana.

“Yes, Diana, I agree with Judson. The Shaw family treats you badly. Your grandma forced you to get married a few days ago.” Sally said.

Diana shook her head, “Mom, Judson, my father worked in the Shaw’s company all his life. I don’t think he want the company go bankrupt.”

Judson sighed and finally nodded, “Ok, I will talk to Bruce tomorrow.”

“Judson, thank you.” Diana took Judson's hand and said.

Judson smiled and touched Diana's head and said, “You have no need to say thank you.”

In the evening, Sally called Dexter and said, “Dexter, I have told Diana and Judson and they will help. But we want a bigger house and 20 percent of the shares.”

.

At ten o’clock in the evening, in the hall of Shaw's villa, Old Lady Shaw was angry and slapped her glass of water on the table after hearing that, “Hum, isn't she asking too much? Does she really think we can't live without them? It is ok that we give her a bigger house, she even want 20 percent of the shares! When Freddy was alive, it was only thirteen percent!”

Old Lady Shaw shivered with anger, and Dexter frowned. He felt that Sally had gone too far. Diana knew Bruce, but he was not sure if she could let Bruce stop against the Shaw family. Since it had not been settled, they wanted such a high condition!

“We can't agree. the housing price of N City is not so high as first-tier city, but it costs more than 1 million for a house covering 100 square meters. It is impossible if they want one-fifth of the company's shares!” Lennox patted the table and opposed.

Old Lady Shaw narrowed her eyes. “Don't mention it again! Even if I sell the company, I won't let Sally and that live-in son-in-law to get a penny!”

Dexter sighed deeply. He was the eldest son, and his son, Robbie, was the Shaw family's future heir. But he was clear, if Robbie took the company, it was basically over. And now Diana and Judson joined the Ray Group with high position. They would have a say in a few years. So if Diana was back to the family, she could help Robbie in the future.

But he did not expect Sally wanted more, which had exceeded the bottom line of him and the Old Lady Shaw. Let alone Old Lady Shaw, he would not agree Sally’s requirement.

“Dexter, come to them agan, let Lennox call Sally!” Old Lady Shaw said to Dexter with a dark face.

Lennox sneered at Dexter and said, “Brother, I said that we don't need to beg Sally. Who does she think she is? Why should you degrade yourself? You have lost Mom’s face!”

“You!” Dexter pointed to Lennox and couldn't speak.

Lennox did not answer Dexter again. He took out his mobile phone and made a call to Sally, “Sally, don't you ask too much? Who do you think you are! You should be satisfied to have a house? Ha ha, now I won’t give it to you. You just nest in that small house!”

.

Sally shivered of anger. Judson and Diana heard the noise in the living room and came out in their pajamas. They found Sally’s facial expression was wrong.

“What's the matter, Mom?” Diana asked Sally in doubt.

Sally sat on the sofa and said, “Lennox called, saying they don't need our help. And they will not give us the shares and the house. He said we can't afford to buy a house in the city center!”

Sally looked up to Judson and said, “Judson, don't help them, let them alone! It is good that we three live in this small house. I really do not want their house!”

Judson narrowed his eyes. After thinking, he said to Sally, “Ok. But don't worry, we'll have our house.”
