His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire? novel Chapter 860

Currently, the S-Star Group was beset by internal and external troubles. With his right-hand man, Lionel, behind bars, and Aviana taking charge at headquarters, Mark only had Lilian by his side.

Taking a deep breath, Mark's gaze darkened as he stared at Avery—a figure of arrogance personified, with intentions as twisted as the serpents hidden behind his stylish spectacles.

Lilian, having weathered many a storm with Mark, faintly sensed the malicious intent and ambition emanating from Avery.

"Mr. Mark Griffith, you don't seem to be in good health. Quite ill, I presume?" Avery remarked with a sneer.

Before Mark could even offer a seat, Harvey had already brought one over, and Avery seated himself with an elegance.

Such disdain, such arrogance—this was no bedside manner of a visitor; it was a clear challenge!

Anger surged within Lilian, but before she could speak up, Mark preempted with a cold voice, cutting through the tension.

"Mr. Chambers, if you've come to pay your respects, you've done so. Could you leave by now?"

"Mr. Mark Griffith, let's not rush things."

Leaning back with an air of nonchalance, Avery crossed his legs leisurely. "I'm here not just to pay you a visit, but mainly to discuss business."

"Business? I have no business to discuss with you!"

Mark's voice wavered with barely contained irritation. "Show our guest out."

"I'm here to make an offer on S-Star Group." Avery's lips curled into a cold smile, revealing his grand ambitions.

Audacious, to say the least!

"What did you just say?!" Mark's face flushed with a mix of fury and shock.

S-Star Group was his life's work, not just his, but also Emeric's, who had silently supported him from the shadows. Over the years, Emeric had poured over three billion into the company to get projects off the ground in Elmsworth and beyond.

And all of this, Aviana didn't know, nor did Evadne and the rest of the Ashbourne family. It was Chairman Emeric using his own money to subsidize the Griffith family, and he never asked for repayment!

And now, Avery, this upstart, dared to talk of a takeover S-Star Group. How could he tolerate it?

What difference was there between that and letting this snotty little brat relieve himself on his neck?

Mark scoffed at the audacity. "Dream on, Mr. Chambers. S-Star Group isn't some public company you can just snap up. Over my dead body!"
