Chapter 494 Buying the shares?
Back in the elevator, Charlotte recalled what had happened later, but when the elevator passed by a certain floor,
she
accidentally saw Vivian.
At this time, Vivian was obviously much fatter. Her lower abdomen was slightly bulging, and she was already
pregnant.
Charlotte hesitated for a moment, then chose to walk down the elevator, and followed her to a corridor. She saw a
middleaged couple coming to Vivian.
“What did the doctor say?” The middle-aged woman asked first.
Vivian looked tired but forced a smile. “Mom, don’t worry. The doctor said everything was going well.”
Only then did Vivian’s mother let out a sigh of relief. “That’s good. Derek knows that you are pregnant, but he is still
so
busy and doesn’t even have time to accompany you to the prenatal examination…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Enough!” Vivian’s father quickly stopped her. “Derek is also busy with his career. Aren’t you stabbing Vivian in her
heart?”
Vivian’s mother glared at him. “I just said a few words. Isn’t that the truth?”
The couple simply bickered with each other. Vivian was also disappointed but quickly hid it.
As the family of three walked away, Charlotte looked thoughtful.
Judging from the way Vivian’s parents dressed and talked, they didn’t seem to be rich, let alone the king and queen.
Why did Derek set up such a character for Vivian?
After thinking about it, she immediately called Mandy and asked her to follow Vivian to find out her background.
When she arrived at the parking lot, Derek had been waiting for a long time. He frowned and asked, “Why did it
take you
so long?”
Enter title…
“I lost an earring and looked for it in the ward for a while.” Charlotte casually found an excuse to brush it off.
Derek was not in the mood to think about it. He just put a document in front of her.
“This is the project that Brain is following up on now.” Derek explained, “Whether in terms of profit or risk, this
project is
very good.”
Charlotte read the project letter carefully. The one that Derek had taken out was indeed very good, but
unfortunately, it
was not that simple.
“How did you get such an important project?” Charlotte looked at Derek probingly.
Derek explained that Brian had been in contact with the other company secretly. But he had also bribed Brian’s
assistant
to get this project letter.
“As far as I know, he is secretly organizing a board meeting. I’m worried that once this project is settled, his position
in the
Clinton Group will be unshakable,” Derek said anxiously, “We’d better make a decision as soon as possible.”
Charlotte put down the document and blinked innocently. “I know about the shareholders’ meeting. Brian came to
me two
days ago and said that he wanted to buy the shares of the Clinton Group from me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What?!” Derek looked at her in disbelief. “How could he…?”
Realizing that he had overreacted, Derek quickly explained, “I’m just too surprised. Everyone knows that you can’t
sell the
shares of the Clinton Group now.”
Charlotte nodded. “I also think it’s very strange, and he promised to exchange the shares of other companies for
the
shares of the Horizon Group.”
Derek looked sullen.
He and Brian had planned this together to get the working capital from her, but now Brian proposed to buy her
shares…
This made Derek suspicious.
He looked at Charlotte suspiciously. “Are you sure?”
Charlotte was very calm. “Of course I’m sure. Why should I lie to you?”
Derek also felt a little strange. They were allies now. In any case, there was no need for her to lie to him.
Unless she already knew about his relationship with Brian, but this was impossible.
