Chapter 845
After Jeff finished his spiel, the car conveniently came to a stop at the gate of the Raymond Villa.
Tan got out of the car and went straight to the top floor, finally meeting Pearson.
Pearson didn’t exactly have the Raymond family’s signature looks. He was above average, not particularly striking, but his eyes held the same sharpness as Dennis’s. They seemed calm but were actually razor–sharp
In some ways, this father and son were very much alike.
Pearson was the first to say hello. “Cuz, long time no see. How’s it going?”
The day he joined the Raymond family, he didn’t pay a visit to lan. His position wasn’t that significant, so he didn’t need lan to get involved.
After Eric passed away, everyone assumed that the finance educated cousin would inherit the position.
But Holden chose lan, clearly wanting him to take over the position that had originally belonged to his brother. Eric had only just passed away, so no one else had a say.
So when Selena said that this position was Dennis’s, she wasn’t wrong.
lan himself had never intended to inherit the Raymond family.
When he took over Eric’s position, the rest of the Raymond family was somewhat disgruntled.
Even though the Raymond family’s stock kept rising during the years when lan managed from abroad, proving he was a business genius on par with Eric.
But so what? In other people’s eyes, he was just lucky. Eric had just happened to die.
Moreover, lan’s methods were even more ruthless than Holden’s. He either bankrupted his opponents or forced them to admit defeat, all within the bounds of the law. He had a knack for business tactics that made people fear him, so everyone hoped he would step down!
Now that Dennis had finally stepped up, they can imagine how happy the others were.
Pearson looked at his cousin, barely able to hide his jealousy.
Why did the Raymond brothers share such good genes? They were handsome and competent.
When Eric was around, everyone felt suffocated by his aura.
When news of his death came, Pearson had even thrown a celebration with his father, thinking the Raymond heir would be him. But it turned out to be lan, who had served in the military. What the hell?
Pearson kept his emotions under control, maintaining a smile on his face.
lan just glanced at him casually, nodded slightly, and walked into his office.
Pearson was quite pissed off at this attitude. His hand at his side clenched, but he had to endure.
His father was still aggressively buying up other shares. Ian would soon be ousted, so he had to wait until then to drive this man out of the Raymond family.
After lan sat down, Jeff handed him a big project.
“Boss, this is the EcoTraverse Group cooperation project. The EcoTraverse Group is a top luxury car brand worldwide, and they want to partner with us. However, the risk of this project has exceeded our maximum tolerance. Most importantly, they want to sign a risk investment agreement. This kind of agreement can bring handsome returns but also requires high risks. If we can win this project, the Raymond Corporation’s market value might double.”
After all, the EcoTraverse Group had never chosen to cooperate with other companies on such a large scale. This time, they were probably seeking a significant collaboration.
“Boss, the offer is indeed tempting, but if we fail, Dennis might take the chance to attack you again.”
lan was already being punished for his marriage issue, and Dennis had seized the opportunity. If this risk investment failed, the Raymond family elders might transfer their shares to Dennis, bringing his total to 45%.
With just a bit more buying up, lan would lose all control.
If lan could win this project, he would be able to make up for his previous mistakes.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
