NovelOnlineChapter 901: 901. Kneel down and apologize Upon saying this, Thompson Shuyi let out a self-satisfied snicker and said, "I'm definitely going to sell my Jones shares. As to whom I'll sell them, I'm still considering. If you kneel down now, apologize tofor past events, and apologize to my daughter Sophia, then I'll consider selling my Jones shares to you." In Thompson Shuyi's view, the 10% of shares were critical, as they could very well decide the future ownership of the Jones corporation.
She knew her daughter, Lily Jones, held another 10% of the shares. Considering the terrible relationship between Lily and Elly Campbell, her daughter-in-law, she was absolutely not going to give the shares to Elly.
Either she would hold on to them, or it was very likely she would sell them to one of Elly's rivals.
After much thought, Shuyi realized that Edward Gresia was currently the Jones shareholder with the grandest ambitions, and he was the only one possibly willing to pay for the shares held by Lily.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf Edward Gresia were to purchase the shares from Lily and her, along with the 10% he already owned, that would make it 30% in total.
With the Jones corporation in crisis and the market's floating shares alongside other shareholders' willingness to sell, how could Elly compete with the cunning and sly Edward Gresia? Therefore, Thompson Shuyi was certain that Elly Campbell would absolutely not want her shares to end up in Gresia's hands.
Even more certain that her present demand for Elly to kneel and apologize, even if Elly was reluctant, would be agreed upon.
Watching the crowd cand go in the shopping mall, the thrill in Shuyi's eyes intensified.
She had wanted to bring Elly down for a long time. Since the incident on the island, she had suffered at the hands of this vile woman repeatedly. Her stepdaughter was cunningly robbed of her innocence by Elly, and she herself was severely reprimanded by Old Mr. Young.
All these grievances she attributed fully to Elly Campbell.
Now, with her son, Adam Jones, missing and his fate uncertain, there was no way Elly could continue to act arrogantly and domineeringly in her presence as she had in the past.
She was eager for Elly to nod in agreement and then, in front of everyone, kneel down and apologize to her. By then, she could trample Elly's pride underfoot and reclaim the humiliations she had endured.
As for whether she would really sell the shares to Elly after the apology, that was another matter entirely. Thompson Shuyi's eyes shifted slightly, and the demand she made was so infuriating that it turned Helen Melendy's face beside Elly stone cold.
If she had known, she wouldn't have bothered bringing Elly out for those nonsense desserts.
Facing such annoying nuisances, the desserts, even if consumed, would not digest.
Seeing Elly start to move, Helen thought she was really about to kneel for Thompson Shuyi, and immediately reached out to stop her, frowning as she said, "Elly, do you actually believe what this shameless thing is saying? Let's not bother with her and head back immediately."
Thompson Shuyi was in high spirits, and despite Helen's words, she did not take them to heart, looking at Helen as if she were a contemptible ant. All she awaited now was for Elly Campbell to grovel before her.
Her gaze shifted from Helen and settled on Elly's face as she said,
"What's it going to be? Have you made up your mind? I've given you a chanceNf you don't seize it, I might change my mind." Seeing Elly smile and the chill that frosted over her gaze as she looked at Thompson Shuyi, she said,
"Let's set aside whether you'll actually sellyour shares after I've played at apologizing by kneeling. Even if you truly wanted to sell them to me, do you think I would actually desire them?"
