Chapter 359
In Liam's luxury apartment, he had been anxiously waiting for the follow-up news from his subordinates.
He was happy to see them issuing resignation notices to support him in suppressing Paige.
However, a few minutes later, Sophia suddenly rushed into his room and said, "Dad, the stock value of the company is rising."
"What? How is that possible?" He didn't believe it. In the morning, in order to make the stock value drop, he had been suppressing it with all his efforts and sold all the stocks he had.
He wanted to stop people from buying new stocks because of how helpless the numbers looked.
"Look, it is rising in a straight line. This is not good, it's rising and stopping!"
Hearing her exclamation, he grabbed the phone and saw the graph himself. He rubbed his eyes and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.
All the stocks in his hands had been sold, and they had been taken over by others. How could he buy them again in the future? He could not believe that he didn't have any shares of the Anderson Group anymore.
In just half a day, he had been completely kicked out of the Anderson Group by Paige.
He had no shares in his hands at all. At this point, it would be a dream for him to return to the company.
Unable to withstand such a blow, he blacked out and fainted to the ground.
"Dad! What's wrong with you?" She screamed. "Mom, come out! Dad has passed out!"
Isabella ran into the room and followed Sophia, who was pinching and yelling at him to wake up.
After a long while, Liam woke up and said, "It's over!"
"What's over?"
"The company is over!" He murmured.
"Isn't that perfect? Paige won't be able to do anything if it's over, so she would definitely give you…" Before Isabella finished her sentence, Liam slapped her in the face and said, "You b*tch! This happened because of you two!"
Having been slapped in the face, Isabella's face felt numb. Before she could react to it, Liam jumped up and slapped her a few more times, and said, "It's all your fault. You have brought nothing but bad luck to me ever since you showed up! Now I'm done! I have nothing!"
Sophia was shocked by his sudden madness. Seeing that her mother's cheeks were bleeding from the continuous slaps, she jumped up to stop him.
Liam had a cast on one arm while slapping Isabella with the good arm.
When his injured hand was pulled away by Sophia, he fell to the side with a scream. No one was there
to catch him, so he fell to the ground with a bang.
The broken hand accidentally touched a shelf next to him, which made him scream again.
The broken hand was so painful that he couldn't get up from the ground. He could only scold her angrily, "B*tch! What the f*ck are you doing? Send me to the hospital now! Ouch! My arm!"
Paige thought that Joseph called Aiden and James to put on a show, and after they were done, they would leave.
When she ended her phone call with Joseph, she made tea for them and said, "Thank you, Mr. Cook and Mr. Field, for coming to support me. I'll keep this in mind. If there's anything I can do for you in the future, just let me know, and I'II do my best."
Her bold words amused James and Aiden.
"Miss. Anderson, we're not here to put on a show. We really want to cooperate with your company," James took out a proposal and handed it to her.
"This is a large theme park proposal. We originally planned for the cooperation to be between the Hattelo Group and Wolf Group only, but Sir Joseph convinced us, so we decided to invite you. Please read the proposal, and you can decide to cooperate with us."
She reached out to take the proposal and said, "You're not joking, are you? Are you really going to cooperate with the Anderson Group?"
"That's right!"
"I'm so excited!" She felt like the luckiest person on the earth. The cooperation between Wolf Group and Hattelo Group was certainly a good project to make money.
With this cooperation, what else was she afraid of?
Paige read the proposal carefully and handed it to Braelynn before she said with embarrassment.
"I'm not a professional, so I won't pretend to be one in front of Mr. Field and Mr. Cook. I'll leave this to Braelynn, who is more professional than me."
Braelynn took the proposal book and looked at it with a satisfied expression. "That's great. The plan is perfect, and the prospects of cooperation are also good. However, I want to know what is the investment budget for this project. How much money do you plan on asking us to pay?"
"If you can, then we would like you to offer 30 percent of the funds for this ten billion dollars project. If you can't, then we can pay the majority instead." James said.
"Uh..." Paige looked embarrassed. "I don't have any money in my account now. Can you wait for a few days?"
"It doesn't matter. We'll invest the funds in the early stage, and your funds can be added later." James was very hospitable.
Only a fool would not agree to cooperate under these conditions. Paige nodded immediately and said, "This is such a great plan with good conditions, so of course, I will agree to it!"
Braelynn reached out and pulled her back.
Paige looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I will discuss this with Miss Anderson for a little while. Please sit and wait for a bit, Mr. Cook and Mr. Field."
Braelynn took Paige to the lounge and said, "Miss Anderson, why do I get a strange feeling about this?"
"How is it strange? Isn't it a great thing?" Paige asked.
"It's a great thing, but how could they let us sign a contract without requiring us to pay for any funds? This is not right. I'm worried that this could be a trap."
"A trap? Are you saying that James and Aiden are going to set me up? That's impossible!"
"We'd better be careful about everything. If they have any evil intentions, we'll be unable to save ourselves if it's too late, right?"
Braelynn felt the conditions were too good to be true.
"I don't believe that they would plot against me. They are close to Joseph, so they came to help me this time. You see, the rising stock market is also their credit. If we hadn't borrowed money from them, the stock value would still be at its all-time low."
"Miss, when you mention the stocks, I feel uneasy again. The shares were at their lowest today, and
those shares have been taken away by Aiden and James. If they take advantage of their stock share to compete with you for the company, won't you be at a disadvantage?"
"Well... you're right, but I don't believe that they'll do that." NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
"It's too early to determine that anyway," Braelynn was still alert.
"Then you should read the contract carefully later. If there's a trap, you'll definitely be able to see through it."
"True, I'II look at the contract! Anyway, I don't have a good impression of Aiden," When Braelynn mentioned Aiden, it was obvious that she felt weird about him.
"What's wrong? What did he do?" Paige was surprised.
"He's an extreme playboy, and he has so many women. He's also so cunning and evil. Who knows if he'll set us up or not?"
"You can't say that. Aiden and Joseph are both playboys, aren't they? But I don't think there's anything wrong with Joseph." When it came to Joseph, Paige was satisfied.
Braelynn shook her head and said, "Aiden is not so simple. Joseph, too. In short, we have to be careful."
"Let's look at the contract first, then we'll make a decision after." Paige made up her mind.
