Chapter 285 Chapter 285 Collusion After all, Edgar had been active in the business circle for many years. Royden Group wouldn't have accomplished its achievements today if Edgar couldn't even see through a trick like this. Zenith's expression turned sullen as he remained silent for quite a while.
Perceiving the situation, Jensen freaked out. "Dad, no matter how you beatup, I can't be the scapegoat for this incident." He had not completely taken over the family business at that moment. Even if he did, he was no match for Edgar.
"Say something, Dad. I was blinded back then and listened to Andy's nonsense. I didn't do it on purpose." Jensen nearly knelt down in front of Zenith.
However, the more he defended himself, the more intense the atmosphere. Suddenly, Zenith hit his lap forcefully and rebuked, "That's enough. Get out from my sight!" He looked at his son, who cback from studying abroad, before averting his gaze to Edgar, who was sitting across from him with a solemn look. Only if my son was half as capable as Edgar...
Zenith had no choice but to lower his dignity and faced Edgar. "Mr. Royden, just tell us what you wish us to do." As long as Edgar spoke up, there were chances of turning around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo matter what, Zenith was a respected man in the business circle, so he was confident that he could at least save Jensen's future.
However, at that moment, he underestimated Edgar.
Edgar lifted his eyes and made a statement that stunned both Zenith and Jensen.
"I demand twenty percent of Rocher Group's shares." "What?!" Contents belong to Jensen couldn't take it anymore. "You're too much, Edgar Royden! Yes, I admit that I helped Andy to settle stasks, but don't you think of using that to threaten my dad. Royden Group's internal dispute has long existed. It's not something that I could instill." Edgar sneered. "You're right, but that's my condition." He lifted his hand calmly; Miles quickly handed a letter of indictment to him. The only defendant in the letter was Jensen.
"You have five minutes to consider it. If you agree with my condition, we can take it as if nothing happened. If you don't, we'll hand in this document to the court immediately." Jensen glanced at the letter of indictment and snickered in disdain. "What's so great about it? Go ahead and sue me. I'll expose Andy and the other shareholders in court. By that time..." I would becthe common enemy of everyone. Edgar didn't have to do anything, yet my family would be in deep water. Shrewd of him to think of this method! Jensen noticed something was off as he continued, so he could only clam up and stand aside resentfully. Heaving a deep sigh, Zenith couldn't care less about his dignity at that moment. He stood up and bowed to Edgar. "My son has been spoiled since young. We are willing to bear the consequences of him offending you." "Great. I shall take my leave then. The lawyer will contact you tomorrow morning." Edgar stood up and was about to leave.
"Wait a moment, Mr. Royden." Zenith humbly went forth and said, "Twenty percent of the shares is a bit too much. Could you show mercy for the sake of Nathan?" Edgar halted his step and smiled. "I've already taken Nathan into consideration while making my decision. If you continue bargaining with me, don't blme for being ruthless." Then, he paused for a while as he was reminded of something. "By the way, a small company like Eyer Group can't afford to hire such a capable man like Jensen. I think it's better for him to change companies." Edgar blurted coldly.
With that, he strode out of Knox Residence and left in his car, leaving Zenith to rebuke Jensen. "Look at what you've done! I asked you to go help Jean, but I didn't ask you to challenge Edgar!" Jensen was distressed. "Dad, it's not that I want to challenge him. He is clearly still fond of Jean. I'm doing so to gain Jean's attention." "Do you really think she would like you if Edgar was absent?" Zenith was exasperated at the sight of Jensen. "Go back and reflect upon yourself. You better stay away from Andy Shaw." Jensen lowered his head and asked aggrievedly, "Do you really plan to give away our shares? You saw Edgar's attitude for yourself just now. He clearly cto land us in trouble. In my opinion, you shouldn't have agreed to his condition." Zenith's face darkened all the more. "Go back to your room immediately!" Edgar was powerful not because of his position as Royden Group's president, but his ability to endure in all circumstances.
That was exactly the reason why the Eyer family was ruined in his hands back then.
This man was willing to wait a decade for a chance to take his opponent down. That was what made him invincible.
Even Nathan couldn't hold a candle to Edgar, let alone Jensen.
Zenith shook his head as he stood up and mumbled, "Oh Gary, you sure have an incredible son-in-law." On the other hand, Jensen did not reflect upon himself as he was told after returning to his room. Instead, he contacted Andy immediately, intending to hit back at Edgar and make him suffer the consequences of intimidating them at Knox Residence.
The moment Andy answered the call, Jensen spat energetically, "Hey Andy, Edgar cto confront me. We should quickly think of a way to..." "You idiot!" Andy scowled and hung up instantly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmConfused, Jensen called him back, but Andy had already switched off his phone Later, he received a message from an unknown ID. "Edgar must have had something on me, thanks to you. You better stay away fromduring this period." Jensen was dumbfounded as he gazed at the phone screen.
"Aren't you unafraid of Edgar?" But alas, there was no response from Andy thereafter.
Only then did Jensen realize that Andy had been using him. Not only that, he abandoned him the moment their plan went wrong. Even if he could confront Andy in person, the latter would surely pass the buck to him. If that happened, the compensation they had to give Edgar would be far more than twenty percent of their shares. Given the current circumstance, who else could help him? Jensen paced back and forth in the room for a while and suddenly thought of someone.
He took out his phone immediately, dialed a series of numbers, and m waited anxiously. In no time, the call was answered. "Hello?" "Jean, please save me! You're the only one that can savenow!" Jensen almost teared up. However, Jean's response was extremely cold. "I don't know what you're talking about." Jensen was startled at Jean's response while the latter hung up instantly.
Thereafter, Jensen stayed at hhelplessly until Ben cto find him.
"What brings you here?" Jensen snorted contemptuously because he looked down on Ben.
"I know Edgar is coming after Rocher Group's shares. survivinglisty. Chance of join forces with me." Jensen was shocked. "How did you know about that?" Ben wore a profound smile. "This is a private agreement. Take a look at it and decide if you want to sign it." X
