Chapter 402

Everett Lopez’s sudden move caught Lane off guard.

“Who did you say you are again? The Lopez Corporation?”

“That’s right.”

Lane let out a low chuckle, “I have no plans to sell East Star Enterprises. You can tell Mr. Lopez to

forget about it! Don’t think I don’t know what he’s up to.”

This wasn’t about acquiring East Star Enterprises at all, it w

I was a ploy to get to Dorothy!

“Mr. Lopez will give you one day to consider,” said the voice on the other end.

“I’ve already told you, there’s nothing to consider! Can’t you understand? I’m not seling!

Kevin chuckled on the other end. “You can consider whether to sell the enterprise willingly or under

duress,”

Regardless, selling was inevitable

“Are you trying to force a buyout?!” Lane stood up in frustration. “Let me make it clear, it’s not

happening! I am currently the largest shareholder of East Star Enterprises. As long as I don’t approve,

you won’t be able to acquired!”

Kevin’s voice remained calm, and Lane could hear the rusting of papers through the phone.

“Here’s the thing, Mr. Lane You currently hold 34% of East Star Enterprises shares, indeed making you

the largest shareholder However, the Lopez Corporation has already acquired 27% of the company’s

shares, and with just one more share transfer contract I’m about to sign, you will no longer hold that

title Mr. Lopez, considering your past support for Ms Sanchez, would still like to offer you the chance to

make your own choice.”

Lane was silent, immediately turning on his computer to check the company’s shareholder information.

Kevin, ever so polite, waited on the line for him to verify the information.

When Lane saw the shareholder change notifications, he thought he was dreaming!

How could it have happened so fast? It was almost impossible!

“You call this giving me a choice

“Absolutely! You can choose to sell your 34% stake to us, or not. But… once the Lopez Corporation

becomes the majority shareholder your shares could drastically lose their value, as we won’t be

operating with East Star Enterprises as our focus.”

When that happened, East Star Enterprises cash flow would plummet until it ceased to sign any new

projects, rendering its

ng its shares worthless

The price Lane could get for his 34% today might not even fetch one percent in the future.

Lane frowned, unable to believe Everett would go to such lengths for Dorothy!

Such ruthless takeover of a company with ongoing projects could tarnish the Lopez Corporation’s

reputation and would surely drain their finances!

It was hard to believe that this was the same Everett known for his calculated and cool approach to

business

“Everett better not forget, Dorothy is his ex–wife! He will not win her back by doing this!“”

“That’s Mr. Lopez’s concern. You need not worry. Mr. Lane.”

“Fine! You want to play this game? Don’t assume that I, Lane, haven’t built up my own resources over

the years! A bidding war for shares is? can play the game if I want. Well see whether our shareholders

prefer to sell to you or to mel”

Lane understood the stakes, but his pride had overshadowed his reason,

“Alright then.”

Kevin had nothing more eto add and was about to hang up.

But Lane suddenly laughed, “And one more thing… If Everett wants Dorothy so badly, I can just fire her

from East Star Enterprises right now!”
