After listening to his words, I smiled and said, "Who do you think I should give it to?"
"Because the Xi's Group was founded by Gramps Xi. I hope you can give your shares to Edward." Lawyer Huang seemed to be very respectful to grandpa. When mentioning grandpa, there was a bit of respect in his eyes.
"If I don't give my shares to Edward, is the Xi's Group going to go bankrupt?"
"That's almost what I mean. Because the Xi's Group has been suffering blows recently. Now the rival companies have did lots of things against the Xi's Group, and the Xi's Group is already on the verge of collapse."
He said meaningfully to me.
Hearing his words, my mind was weighed down. My shares became extremely important. I had a feeling that the shares in my hand meant a lot.
I clenched my fists and didn't talk any more. Seeing that I didn't speak, Lawyer Huang didn't take the initiative to speak.
Twenty minutes later, we arrived at the Xi's Group. Lawyer Huang got out of the car first and opened the door for me in an extremely gentleman manner.
I got out of the car and looked at the magnificent Xi's Group in front of me.
I really didn't expect that such a big company would go bankrupt one day.
This feeling made me feel a little frightened and even guilty.
When I and lawyer Huang walked into the hall, a receptionist had already stepped forward and respectfully saluted us. Then she led us to the conference room.
I went to the conference room once. At that time, I encountered David and almost hurt by him. It was Edward who saved me.
"Patter." When lawyer Huang opened the door of the conference room, those shareholders who were discussing suddenly became extremely quiet.
Everyone looked at me who was following behind lawyer Huang.
Being stared at by those people, I felt very nervous.
Edward sat on the main seat and looked at me with deep eyes. For a moment, I felt that my breathing became extremely rapid.
William who was sitting on the other side also looked at me with deep eyes.
"Miss Mu, I heard that Gramps Xi gave you 10% of the shares. I don't know if it is true." An old shareholder of the Xi's Group looked at me and said in a low voice.
I nodded at the man, took out the document, handed it to the old shareholder and said, "Yes, I have 10% of the shares. Grandpa gave me this."
Hearing what I said, all the people burst into an uproar. All of them looked at the document in my hand with a serious look. I ignored the gazes of those people. I raised my chin and looked at Edward. His eyes never left me ever since I walked into the conference room.
"Ashley, you want to give the shares to me or William?" Edward raised his hand, and those shareholders who had been talking about it became quiet in an instant. All of them raised their heads and looked at the shares in my hand with anticipation. They were all guessing who my shares would be given to.
I closed my eyes and then looked at Edward. With a playful tone, I said, "Do you think whom I should give my shares to?"
"Of course you should give it to G.M.Xi. Miss Mu, you're his wife. Naturally, you should..."
"Ex-wife." I interrupted that person. I said to Edward with a bright smile, "He and I have already divorced a long time ago. As for the reason, of course, it's because he brought his beloved mistress to me and told me that she was pregnant and asked me to divorce. I, Ashley, was not a stubborn woman, so I quickly divorced him."
Hearing what I said, all the people became silent. No one spoke, but just looked at me.
I ignored them and turned to look at Edward. With a hint of provocation, I said, "Am I right? G.M.Xi."
Edward's handsome face was extremely tense. I could see that he was trying his best to control his emotions. He was very angry.
But I didn't care about his anger. I just looked down and said with a cold expression, "I want to give my shares to..." My words made the whole conference room unusually quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on me, waiting for what I said.
Even Edward seemed to be nervously looking at me. His fists on the table were nervously clenched.
"I want to give my shares to the Time Group."
"Whoosh." All the people were in an uproar. The old shareholders of the Xi's Group seemed to have not expected that I would actually stand on the side of the Time Group.
Edward didn't say anything. He just stared coldly at me for a long time before he moved his eyes away.
"Ashley, will you regret it?"
"Why should I regret it? The shares are mine, I can sell them to anyone."
I smiled happily, but only I knew that my heart was very uncomfortable.
