NovelsBestChapter 971 He Didn't Want It Himself Raymond plopped down, his fingers drumming on the table like he always did in these meetings.
The Montague clan all turned their eyes to Elbert.
Elbert's hand, hanging by his side, slowly balled into a fist, his face going pale.

Before he could say anything, Eric chimed in, "So what if it's over? Mr. Raymond Montague will find another way. Besides, I always planned to give him the 5% shares of Vertex Automotive Group. He didn't want them at first, so I had to hold onto them." Eric was buttering up Raymond. Usually, he was pretty cold to the other Montagues.
Since Eric wanted to hand over the shares to Raymond, it meant Raymond could've won the bet. But he waited until the bet was over to show up. How was that even possible? Elbert's eyes flashed with disbelief, then anger. "Mr. Scott, what's the meaning of this?" Eric looked at Elbert, "Isn't it clear? Mr. Raymond Montague didn't want to win." Eric grabbed a document and fanned Raymond with it, worried he might be feeling the heat from the tense atmosphere.
John, standing on the other side of Raymond, found Eric's brown-nosing hilarious.
No wonder Raymond said Eric was smart before they chere.
The other Montagues started to panic.
"What do you mean by not wanting to win? Raymond, stop pretending. We've suffered under you before, do you think we'd believe you now?" "Yeah, you only have yourself to blfor not respecting us elders. Compared to Christopher, you're way behind." "This position was Christopher's to begin with. You should've stepped down a long tago." Raymond leaned back, still calm.
Just then, a staff member from the shareholding trust stepped up and asked, "Mr. Raymond Montague, should we announce the share composition now?" Raymond nodded, and the staff member straightened up, pulling out the records of Raymond's share purchases.

When the agreement was signed, it was stated that there was a risk in mortgaging. If someone offered a price higher than the market value during the speriod, the institution might sell the 30% shares. Unfortunately for Mr. Elbert Montague, Mr. Raymond Montague offered a price higher than the market value, so these 30% shares belong to him." The staff member added, "Additionally, Mr. William Montague had previously signed a share transfer agreement, transferring his 15% shares to Mr. Raymond Montague. This matter is witnessed by two lawyers, so Mr. Raymond Montague currently holds 70% of the shares, still the undisputed president of the Montague Group, with a shareholding rate far exceeding the previous 55%." The room went silent for a moment.
Elbert roared, "Impossible! Raymond's position as CEO was disputed. He had no reason to use ару. of the Montague Group's assets to acquire shares!" The staff member adjusted his glasses and said coldly, "Who said he used the Montague family's assets?"
Elbert's face went pale. "I don't believe it! I'll request a police om investigation. Raymond, this is En commercial fraud! You'll go to jail!" Two top lawyers standing nearby spoke up, "Mr. Elbert Montague, everything Mr. Raymond Montague has done is legal and compliant." These two lawyers were famous, often appearing in interviews and newspapers. They wouldn't be wrong.
Raymond's business tactics always involved exploiting legal loopholes, causing others to lose everything. Elbert instinctively took a step back, feeling a pain in his chest, his eyes full of anger.
