NovelsBestChapter 959 All the Bitterness and Humiliation in This World Elbert found another seat and plopped down, his face like ice. "Raymond, you should know the guy next to you. This is Mr. Scott, the big shot from Vertex Automotive Group." Raymond leaned back, his muscles straining against his suit, showing off his sharpness.
Raymond glanced at Eric and said, "Yeah, I know him. We just signed a bet-on agreement." Elbert sneered, "Glad you remember. The bet's almost up. If you can't snag 5% of Vertex Automotive Group's shares, you'll have to cough up 20% of your Montague Group shares." "Yep." Raymond's calm attitude was infuriating.
Elbert had set up this whole tic scene, but Raymond's nonchalant and arrogant demeanor made everyone want to grind him into the dirt, to make him taste all the bitterness and humiliation this world has to offer.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJust as Elbert was about to say something, Carter couldn't help but chin, "Doesn't the bet still have a few days left?" Grace immediately snapped at him, "Carter, shut up!" Carter had just cback from a vacation abroad with his girlfriend, only to realize she was shallow and his feelings for her had fizzled out. He broke up with her without hesitation, but she kept pestering him, giving him a headache. Last night, as soon as he got home, he learned about a series of recent events, including that Selena was the ex-wife Raymond had always disliked.
From last night until now, Carter's mind was a mess, and then he heard that William was missing and Raymond was about to lose his CEO position at the Montague Group.
Carter had no choice but to cwith Grace to see what was happening. Seeing so many people here, it was clear they wanted to force Raymond to step down as CEO. Thinking about his relationship with Raymond, Carter was unhappy and couldn't help but interject.
But Grace had decided to back Elbert.
Carter, scolded, looked a bit embarrassed and worriedly glanced at Raymond.
Carter was worried that if Raymond really couldn't stay as CEO of the Montague Group, would the people here let him go? There was hardly any familial affection in wealthy families. Carter used to think Grace and Raymond had a good relationship since Grace had watched Raymond grow up, but in the face of interests, she chose interests. Carter felt it was ironic and wanted to leave but also wanted to see what would happen next.
Grace looked at him unkindly, "If you keep messing around, get out. All you do is play around with women. After this, you'd better join the Montague Group for straining." Grace's deal with Elbert involved Carter, allowing him to hold the sposition as Harry.
Carter said nothing, closing his mouth and sitting quietly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElbert continued, "Raymond, it's good that you acknowledge the bet-on agreement. Now that Dad is missing, you're the prsuspect. We've already requested a special department to investigate this matter, especially you. You know his status. If his disappearance is related to you, no one can save you. Before that, we hope you can liquidate your shares in advance, as they are the Montague family's assets." Raymond exuded an aura of indifference, his gaze calm. He pressed his thin lips together and spoke coolly, "Why should I?" As he said this, he even chuckled lightly.
This provoked others to start attacking Raymond, with Grace being the first, "Raymond, you're no longer fit to be the CEO. Your mind is ve m atready in chaos. You do whatever Selena tells you to do. Last night, you almost hit your uncle with your car. If he hadn't dodged in time, he'd probably be in the hospital now. So I also suspect that you kidnapped your grandpa." "Mom, Raymond would never do such a thing," Carter couldn't help but retort, but he received a heavy slap on the cheek.
Grace's tone was icy, "If you still can't understand the situation, get out and cback after the meeting is over!"
Carter touched his face in disbelief, five distinct finger marks on his m cheek. Grace had hit him before, but never this hard. Did people really change so much in the face of interests?
Carter's throat felt as if it was blocked by sadness word. Heille toutter a He just cast his eyes down and pressed his lips tightly together.
