Chapter 161

After a brief pause, Lola slowly asked, “Would you be able to lower the price just a little more? | honestly don’t

have that much money on me.”

Yeap, just as | had expected...

| kept driving as | responded, as | always did with people like her. “I'm going through a lot myself these days,

Aunt Lola. | haven't been getting any sleep lately because of the 40,000,000 dollars | still owe, and my anxiety

has been so bad that I've lost a lot of hair.

“I'm under so much stress that I'm working overton both Saturdays and Sundays. | can’t afford to rest at

all.”

| had already witnessed just how vicious and disgusting people could be, especially The Jones family.

| knew being soft with them was pointless. They'd likely mockfor how stupid and easily manipulated they

thought | was, even if | played along with their demands.

That's why | wasn’t going to back down anymore.

As expected, Lola was rendered speechless after hearing my pity rant.

She sighed. “I know you're going through a lot, too.”

Sighing again, | added, “I'm sure you already know this, but if | can’t pay off my debts in time, I'm going to have

to sell off the company...”

Lola thought for a moment before asking, “How about this... | buy all of your shares for 8,000,000 dollars?”

“Yes, of course, I'll let you have them!

“I'm sure you'll take up the General Manager's position once you becthe largest shareholder. If nothing goes

wrong with the company’s operations, you should be able to recover your 8,000,000-dollar investment in two

years, at most.

“On top of that, you'll be the first in your family to bectruly wealthy, owning all these companies, while my

cousins and your children-will inherit your wealth.

“They'll have so much money, they'll be able to marry anyone they want. I'm sure there will be plenty of suitors

lining up to ask for their hand. Once you combine your wealth with theirs, your entire family will be the richest in

the world!” | replied.

| couldn’t help but give myself a mental pat on the back for my Oscar-worthy performance.

| wondered when exactly | had turned into this person.

Had becoming the boss of my own company automatically turnedinto someone who could brainwash and

gaslight others?

After my convincing spiel, Lola started laughing. “I suppose you're right. You've always had a knack for foresight.

Alright then, let's do this! When do we sign the agreement?

| didn’t want to give her any chance to regret her decision, so | immediately said, “Let's do it tomorrow, Monday.

We'll meet at my office at 9:00 a.m. to sign the agreement in front of all the shareholders. While we're at it, I'll

announce the position change during the annual general meeting.’

“Alright, see you tomorrow then.”

| hung up and burst into laughter.

Chapter 161

| had finally turned the tables on the Jones family after years of torment!

Now, it was no longer my concern if Harry wanted to take back the company once he got out of jail.

He could go screw himself, along with his brothers and sisters, for all | cared.

The next day, | arrived at Harbinger Inc. right on tat 9:00 am.

Without a hitch, we signed the share transfer agreement, and Lola transferred the 8,000,000 dollars toon

the spot.

A huge weight lifted off my shoulders when | saw the money hit my account.

Standing up with a smile, | said, “Congratulations, Aunt Lola. Harbinger Inc. is officially yours now.”

Lola and her husband, Zeke Pummel, were overjoyed. Even their tone had an extra bit of enthusiasm as they

said, Now it’s our turn to show the world what we can do!”

Naturally, sof the shareholders were delighted, while others frowned.

Nonetheless, they all clapped and cheered when | started clapping, while Lola and Zeke beamed, savoring the

taste of what it felt like to be the boss.

Suddenly, someone barged through the conference room doors.
