Chapter 193 Illegitimate Children
It was true that, for such a large sum involved in the transaction, she really couldn't trust a stranger easily. If the other party was just bluffing or signed the contract and didn't pay, she wouldn't know where to turn to.
"Then please proceed as quickly as possible," Ruby sighed weakly. She wasn't in the mood to think too much right now. She still had to discuss with Francis what to do about the rest of the money.
"Alright, Miss. Ruby , rest assured. We will complete the procedures within three days, so I will go to handle this matter now."
The man gathered all the documents, stood up, and took his leave.
After he left, Ruby turned to Francis, "Brother, this little money is not enough at all. What about the rest? What do we do afterwards?"
Francis also stopped fiddling with his phone and lifted his gaze to look at Ruby. "Do you care about Johnson that much?"
Ruby replied irritably, "I've even sold my shares, what do you think?"
"Is it worth it?"
"Of course it's worth it! Whatever I do for him is worth it!" Ruby said with conviction, not knowing what kind of spell Johnson had cast on her to have her so utterly bewitched.
Francis nodded as if seriously considering it, his fingers tapping on the table nonchalantly, "I see, and there are ways to do it. I'm just afraid you wouldn't dare."
"What's the way? I've even put up my own shares. What else would I not dare to do?"
Ruby asked eagerly, "Come on, tell me, what other ways are there? Where can we get more money?"
The corner of Francis's mouth curled up. He suddenly leaned forward, gazing into Ruby's eyes, and whispered, "You don't have it, but dad does."
Ruby's eyes widened slowly, "What do you mean?"
"Aren't the shares in dad's hands worth even more?"
Upon hearing this, Ruby swallowed hard, staring at Francis in disbelief.
Her heart was racing, and she even felt a hint of danger from the man in front of her, her own brother, for the first time in many years.
