Aggresive Wife Chapter 97

Jerry’s conversation with Angie over the phone reached Bruno and Suzette because Angie’s speakerphone was on. Bruno’s face instantly softened as he saw hope on the horizon for Grant Corporation.

They gathered around Angie as soon as she hung up the phone.

“Oh, my darling daughter, you are so capable! This time, our family will rely on you!” Bruno was overjoyed. As he stood in front of Angie, he no longer saw her as a bitch, but as his precious baby!

Angie was very proud of herself at the time, and she couldn’t help but look down on her own father’s groveling expression. If it weren’t for her lack of experience due to her youth, she would prefer not to be associated with a guy like Bruno, who was only interested in pleasing the rich and powerful.

Angie finally spoke with pride after being flattered for a while. “The Grant family’s future success depends entirely on me, Dad, as you have seen. Jerry invested after I told him to. If I do not wish…”

“How can you not want it? You wretched girl! Will you be happy only after our family has been destroyed?” When he heard that, Bruno exploded in rage and interrupted her before she could finish her sentence.

As soon as those words were spoken, it became clear that his current good temper was a ruse.

If Angie really refused to convince Jerry to invest in the Grant family, Bruno would probably beat her to death!

That was something that Angie had long realized.

She had been disheartened for a long time!

Angie was unconcerned by what he said and continued to finish her sentence. “If I do not want Jerry to invest, he will not invest. This is a fact. So, Dad, if you want the investment money, you can’t expect me to help you for free.”

“What do you mean? So you dare to talk back now, huh? You want to talk terms with me, right?” Bruno was filled with rage as he watched Angie behave like a despicable person who had just become wealthy.

He didn’t dare to do anything to Angie right now, so he had no choice but to hold back.

“That’s correct. Dad, if you want my assistance, you must give me fifteen percent of the Grant Corporation’s stock. Otherwise, I’ll be on my own with Jerry. That way, I’ll never have to go hungry!”

“Fifteen percent of the stock? You must be dreaming, Angie Grant. What are you thinking? That is not possible!” Bruno jumped out of his seat in a fit of rage. He would have slapped Angie in the face if Suzette hadn’t intervened.

Angie repeatedly moved backward because she was so terrified. The memory of being beaten up caused her to protect herself reflexively.

“I have something to say to you, Bruno. Angie is already an adult. You can’t just beat her up whenever you want!”

“She’s an ingrate. I’m not allowed to beat her up? Take note of what she just said. I’m not dead yet, and she’s already after my assets? She’s a shameless bitch! You are to blame for the Grant family’s destruction!”

Bruno was so enraged that he began speaking without careful diction.

“Hmph! I’m a bitch. Then don’t use this bitch to get some investment capital. If Dad disagrees, then forget about it. Besides, I’m enjoying my life with Jerry right now. As for whether Jerry acknowledges you as his father-in-law, nobody knows! Angie boldly argued her way back after noticing Suzette was restraining Bruno.

She had recently realized that, whether it was her own father or those men who only wanted to sleep with her, none of them would always treat her well. The only way she could ensure a good life and not be trampled on would be to have an ace up her sleeve.

Otherwise, she would never be able to reclaim her life!

Bruno was temporarily rendered speechless by Angie’s determination.

Although he despised Angie’s ungrateful actions, he did not want to lose Jerry, who was currently his biggest supporter.

The one-month deadline was approaching quickly. The Grant family would be finished if the Shallow Bay development project did not begin soon.

“Bruno, all we have now is Angie to turn our lives around. From what I can tell, there’s no harm in giving Angie some stock now. After all, Angie is the only way we can get our investment funds right now!”

Suzette took advantage of the fact that Bruno had calmed down to lobby, and at the same time, she gave Angie a wink.

Immediately understanding, Angie stood up and spoke gently, “I’m not to blame for thinking about myself, Dad. I’m traumatized as a result of your beating. If I don’t have some money on hand, I won’t be able to afford even a meal if you decide to kick me out one day. Therefore, kindly think of me!”

Bruno’s rage subsided a little when he realized Angie had given him a way out of an awful situation.
