The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 402

Everett Lopez's sudden move caught Lane off-guard.

"Who did you say you are again? The Lopez Corporation?"

"That's right."

Lane let out a low chuckle, "I have no plans to sell East Star Enterprises. You can tell Mr. Lopez to forget about it! Don't think I don't know what he's up to."

This wasn't about acquiring East Star Enterprises at all; it was a ploy to get to Dorothy!

"Mr. Lopez will give you one day to consider," said the voice on the other end.

"I've already told you, there's nothing to consider! Can't you understand? I'm not selling!"

Kevin chuckled on the other end, “You can consider whether to sell the enterprise willingly or under duress.”

Regardless, selling was inevitable.

"Are you trying to force a buyout?!" Lane stood up in frustration, "Let me make it clear, it's not happening! I am currently the largest shareholder of East Star Enterprises. As long as I don't approve, you won't be able to acquire it!"

Kevin's voice remained calm, and Lane could hear the rustling of papers through the phone.

"Here's the thing, Mr. Lane. You currently hold 34% of East Star Enterprises' shares, indeed making you the largest shareholder. However, the Lopez Corporation has already acquired 27% of the company's shares, and with just one more share transfer contract I'm about to sign, you will no longer hold that title. Mr. Lopez, considering your past support for Ms. Sanchez, would still like to offer you the chance to make your own choice."

Lane was silent, immediately turning on his computer to check the company's shareholder information.

Kevin, ever so polite, waited on the line for him to verify the information.

When Lane saw the shareholder change notifications, he thought he was dreaming!
