Capture Your Heart novel Chapter 243

In the past, Troy was concerned about him being the eldest, and didn’t want to mingle with him, but today he even dares to challenge him in front of a group of shareholders, accusing him of being obsessive of a woman, which provokes his anger totally. And he vows that he will never let this matter pass like this.

"He can't fight against you, although he is the eldest in our family, but after all, he is getting older and can not live long. As long as I am supporting you, do not need to put your third and fourth uncles in your eyes, they have no ideas and all are dependent on your eldest uncle, if your eldest uncle is dead in the future, the two of them can not become a threat to you at all."

"Thank you, Uncle Emmanuel."

Troy nods slightly, he feels a bit relief, at least there is an uncle in the Charles Family that can make him feel the preciousness of family love.

After getting out of the conference room, Robert follows Troy coming into the chairman's office, and after closing the door he couldn't help but curse, "These old foxes, they are so shameless!"

The day before yesterday they were in Edinburgh, and received a phone call from Emmanuel Charlie, learning that Lennon was leading a group of people to persuade the shareholders to change the chairman. His intention of provocation was very obvious, after hearing the news, Troy flied back to Zurich immediately that day. After some investigation, indeed, it was as Emmanuel Charlie said, he had not yet thought of a good plan to deal with it, Lennon even dared to lead the shareholders to force him to give out his power!

"Robert, since my uncle has openly challenged with me this time, it means that he already has the confidence of winning me, you just immediately contact the other shareholders and buy their shares as far as possible, as long as their requests are not so over, do whatever they ask."

"Must it be like this? Don't you already hold the most shares?"

"The more the better, don't underestimate those who hold small shares, 1% is not much for me, but ten of them could make up to 10% in total, is it still not much for me? I should have done this long ago, if there aren't so many minority shareholders, my eldest uncle wouldn't have had the chance to force me giving up my position today, and before he buys out all the small shares, we must do it quickly."

Robert nods, "Okay, I understand."

He turns around to leave, but then suddenly turns back, "By the way, Miss Karin called me today."

Troy raises his eyes leisurely, "What did she say?"

"Not much, she just asked if you are back in Zurich."

"How did you answer her?"

"I said yes, but I didn't tell her what had happened."

"Very well, don't tell her, lest she worry about me."

"Will she still care about you?" Robert is confused.

"Her bark is worse than her bite, she does care about me."

Troy knows that woman more than anyone...

"Then what are you going to do now? Now the situation is so intense, is it necessary to hold off everything in Edinburgh?"

"No, don't let those old foxes feel that we are losing at our side, the more intense the situation is the quicker we should prepare the brand office in Edinburgh into operation. I want to move the Charles Family's business to there little by little. Nothing is 100% sure, so I won't be 100% confident that I can beat my uncles, the Edinburgh branch is kind of a retreat that I prepare for myself, if one day my uncles beat me down and become a winner, I will leave this empty company to him, I think he can not laugh by then... "

Robert is shocked, "Won’t you decide to let the Charles Group disappear in Zurich, right?"

"Of course not, I'm talking about the worst plan, in the last moment, even if I sacrifice my life I will keep my grandfather's life's work."

"Okay."

Robert gives a sigh of relief, "I'll go ahead and do what you said, and try to solve this problem in the shortest time."

In the evening coming back to the Charlie Mansion, Troy goes to the Charles Family's ancestral hall, he kneels down in front of the ancestral tablets, saying with a painful face, "Grandfather, father, have you seen in the heaven, how the Charles Family now looks like? Uncles are unkind to me in the first place, if I am unjust to them in the future, I hope you can forgive me... "

He kowtows three times and leaves the ancestral hall, standing in the courtyard, staring at the sky that is full of stars, he takes out his cell phone and hesitates for a few seconds, then calls Karin.

It takes a long time for the phone to be answered, and it is clear that the person who answers the phone is just as hesitant as the caller.

Troy is hesitant because he doesn’t know how to explain to her why he left without saying goodbye, and Karin is hesitant because she is afraid that if she hears his voice, the fortress she has built up in her heart would be destroyed so easily again.

"Hello... "

"Karin, it's me, Troy."

"I know, is something wrong?" Her tone sounds calm, with no sign at all of questioning his sudden departure.

"I left in a hurry two days ago, I didn't have time to say goodbye to you and Esme, I'm sorry... "

"It's okay, you don't have to apologize to me, my happiness never lasts long, so I don't have any hope for your arrival."

Her words almost break his heart, he closes his eyes sorrowfully and softly says to her, "Give me a little time, I will make your happiness last forever... "

She is no longer a young girl, and is not naive as she used to be. She has gone through so many difficulties and learned all the tastes of life, she no longer will expect anything like a perfect love from a man.

The love, is a kind of thing that you can live with or without it.

Therefore, when he says those words, she doesn’t feel touched at all.

"If there is nothing else I will hang up, Esme is waiting for me to give her a bath."

When her phone is about to be separated from her ear, she hears a sentence full of sincerity and sadness, "Karin, I miss you so much... "

She is stunned but finally, she hangs up the phone.

Robert keeps meeting with the shareholders who own shares of Charles Group, while on the other hand, Lennon is not doing nothing, he is also actively fighting for shares. The two powers in the family don’t give way to each other.

The news of internal power struggle soon spread throughout the business circles, the impact is quite bad, the stock price of the company begins to fall, Troy is angry, and decides to give Lennon a lesson.

He first reliefs Lennon’s son of his post as the general manage, that is his cousin Simon Charlie, because the branch office managed by Simon belongs to Charles Group, so as the highest executive Troy has the right to deprive him of his position. Lennon personally has two companies, which are doing men's clothing and leather is the main raw material that is essential to the production process, so Troy declares to the public that who provides leather to Lennon is fighting against him, and obviously the two are in different positions, and naturally, the businessmen would not dare to offend Troy than to Lennon, so quickly, Lennon is sucked in the crisis of his own companies and can no longer fight against his nephew for winning more powers. It seems that he has stopped his plan, in fact, he has accumulated more anger and hatred inside his heart.

If he is not too ruthless, Troy doesn't want to do too much, he knows in his heart that his eldest uncle would not be beaten down just like that, so he summons Robert and asks him to take care of some important affairs, after he finishes, Robert asks uncertainly, "You're not going to Edinburgh, are you?"

He prays in his heart that he says yes, but instead Troy says, "No. I will go there."

"You shouldn’t! You absolutely can't leave now, once you leave, you are giving your enemy the opportunity to fight back again, do you think your eldest uncle will stop just because of your temporary threats?"

"It is because I know he won't, that's why I must go."

Troy's eyes are firm, Robert knows that once he makes the decision, it is difficult for him to change, and asks worriedly, "Then what are you going to do?"

"I have my plans... "
