Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 289

Raylan's face was dark with rage, "You..."

"Stop!" Mr. Lawson slammed the table and roared, "Shut up all of you!"

The eldest daughter sat down with a blank face, but Raylan was unwilling, "Dad, eldest sister said..."

"You shut up too!" Mr. Lawson interrupted him sharply, and said in a bad mood, "Sit down!"

Raylan glared at everyone in the Harvey family, especially James, and then sat down angrily.

Mr. Lawson looked around, focusing on a few shareholders who were not from the Harvey family. He looked gloomy and said, "You also want James to be the president, right?"

They looked at each other and didn't answer.

"Mr. Sutton thinks so." Mr. Sutton’s secretary was neither humble nor pushy, “Compared to Mr. Ralphie, he believes in Mr. James’s ability more.”

"If Mr. Lawson insists on letting Mr. Ralphie be the president, Mr. Sutton will withdraw its investment in the Harvey Group and resell the shares after the meeting."

In fact, taking the opportunity to take back the shares of Mr. Sutton was also good for the Harvey family, which could effectively strengthen its control over the group.

However, the Harvey family was not of one mind and very selfish. Raising enough funds to buy these shares was somewhat difficult.

Once the shares were acquired by opponents, such as the Pearson Group, it would cause a fatal blow to the Harvey Group.

Mr. Lawson's face clouded, and said solemnly, "Are you sure Mr. Sutton said that?"

"Of course." The secretary said, "His original words."

The eldest daughter put her arms around her chest and sneered, "Even if dad is not afraid of Mr. Sutton's withdrawal, the combined shares of you and Raylan's family are not as much as ours, right?"

"What you said is correct. The presidential change will have a very bad impact on our company. Moreover, the truth of the embezzlement of public funds has become clear, so James should continue to serve as the president. The meeting is over! "

Mr. Lawson finished speaking with a sullen face, gave James a cold look, and strode out.

Ralphie stood up and looked down at James, "Congratulations."

Thank you. "James leaned back in his chair and said, "You don't need to be too discouraged. If I don't want to be president one day, I'll give it to you."

Ralphie smiled, "No, thanks. You are so polite. In fact, grandpa was right. We give the dog a bone to let him catch more prey back, and we get more. "

"I hope you are not raising a wolf." James said.

Ralphie's expression was stiff, and then he smiled, "Wolves are not terrible, which are all beasts just like dogs."

"Do you think it is a beast, a human, or a bastard who has the same ancestry as the beast?" James's slender legs were brought together and said calmly.

Ralphie's eyes were vicious, "Don't be too arrogant."

"Too noisy." James said, "I heard that if the dog is too noisy, just throw it a bone. Do you think it works?"

Ralphie didn't answer and left awkwardly.

James walked to Mr. Sutton's secretary and said, "I owe Mr. Sutton a favor for this matter."

"It's not easy to make Mr. Harvey owe a favor." The secretary smiled and said, "Mr. Sutton had expected you to say this. He asked me to tell you that he did this for the benefit of maximization, not to help you deliberately. You don't need to feel owed."

James smiled, "Then I gained some advantage from Gabriela."

The secretary smiled thoughtfully, without objection. He said that he would report on his mission to Mr. Sutton, so he hurriedly left.

Almost everyone in the conference room left, and only Wilson and Howard were still there.

Seeing James finished talking with Mr. Sutton's secretary, he walked over with a smile, "The position of the president is still yours. Congratulations."

Thank you. "James said, "Please help me thank Great Aunt and Second Aunt."

Boss He waved his hand, "Don't mention it. We are all a family."

"To be honest, when your grandpa used shares to seduce me and asked me to support Ralphie, I really hesitated. But I thought about it with my eldest sister and second sister, and we still feel closer to you. "

Hearing this, James's eyes were ironic, but then he thanked him more sincerely.

"You are so polite." Wilson said, "We don't ask for anything else, as long as you work hard."

James readily agreed.

Wilson said some claptrap, and then asked, "When did you get along with Mr. Sutton?"

"Mr. Sutton is very mysterious. How can I have a good relationship with him? "James sighed, "You heard it just now. His secretary said that he was just for maximizing his interests. In fact, it is the same as your support for me."

Wilson pretended to be angry, "We support you because we can't stand your grandfather being too partial. What does it have to do with Mr. Sutton?"

The two exchanged a few more words before they parted.

"After solving this, you can relax temporarily." Howard unscrewed the water bottle, drank the mineral water, and put it on the table.

James lowered his head, and his thick and curled eyelashes cast a shadow on his face, "I don't have any shares, and just work for someone else. How could I relax? "

Howard didn't know how to answer, and after thinking about it, he persuaded him, "Don't worry. There will be no one to support Kyle in a while, and it will be much easier for you to do what you want."

In fact, apart from Raylan, there are no kind people in the Harvey family. He said this only to comfort him.

James did not continue this topic, but asked, "How is the situation of the Smith Group?"

"The public burned with rage. Its stock has continued to limit down. However, because Mr. Danis, Mr. Lewis, and others in the Near family and the Smith family took the initiative to apologize, today the Smith Group’s stock did not reach the limit. "Howard said.

James nodded, "What do the people we sent over say?"

Howard said, "A major shareholder intends to divest, but Mr. Danis and Miss Smith reached an agreement with him. So he didn't mention it again."

"A few small shareholders are short-sighted and are not comforted. They are worried that the stock price will continue to fall and plan to sell."

"With Miss Smith, Mr. Danis, and Mr. Edward, there was little chance that the stock price would fall again. If you are going to buy shares of the Smith Group, it's the best time. "

James didn't agree with him, "Do you know that grandpa warned Jessica?"

"Yeah. " Howard said.

James said, "Grandpa is very dissatisfied that the Smith family used the Harvey family to invade the electrical appliance market. He will not let them have an easy time."

"You mean that when Mr. Lawson intervenes, we just buy stocks from small shareholders, right?" Howard asked, "What if Mr. Lawson didn't plan to make a move?"

James resolutely said, "He will definitely take action, and we just need to buy as many shares of the Smith Group from retail investors as possible."

But it was too easy to be discovered.
