EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 348

Chapter 348 Mr. Johnson Is Going to Cover the Fees?

Anthony was pissed off in the early morning.

He did not do anything, but everyone spoke as if he had put a knife on Austin's neck.

The whole J City was saying that he could not wait anymore to take over KLOC and that he had made some moves to get rid of Austin.

He was so pissed off that he had no appetite for breakfast, "If I knew it would turn out like this, I would have already had Austin hit."

Ross disagreed, "If you had hit him, the police would probably have knocked on our door. Actually, it's not all bad. Though people think we have done it, we have not. No matter what they say, we did not do it. Austin would not find anything against us, the police would not question us, either."

"As long as we remain the same after some time, people would know that it has nothing to do with us. We did not do anything to Austin. And at that time, we could claim that Austin has directed all those things."

Hearing the analysis of his youngest son, Anthony was much cheered up, "You are right. It seems the accident could be an opportunity for us."

Ross smiled, "Right."

Austin on the other hand was unaware of the scheme they secretly had. Since the rumor about his identity came out yesterday, KLOC's shares had dropped. And today, it dropped more.

In merely two days, the market value of KLOC had reduced by six billion, which led to many complaints about Austin from the shareholders.

Austin's face grew colder when he was hearing Ivan's phone call.

"Mr. Johnson, the board wants to have the shareholders' conference today."

Austin sneered, "Arrange it in the afternoon. I will come back."

Then he hung up the phone.

Suny, sitting on the couch, tilted her head towards him, and smiled slightly, "Need some help? Mr. Johnson?"

Austin's face softened while he approached her and sat beside her, "I do need your help."

"Well?"

Suny was a bit surprised.

She asked out of politeness, after all, Anthony was nothing for Austin, and although the shares were dropping, they had not hit the critical moment.

"I want you to buy in KLOC's fractional shares and some shareholders' shares through Phantom." After the old Johnson passed away, Austin led KLOC to a promising future.

Many of KLOC's peer companies had broken down due to their falling behind the time. But after Austin came into office, he made a huge reformation within KLOC and opened up new businesses that echoed with the time, all of which helped KLOC to exist today.

And the shareholders knew it all. If Austin was not Maddox's son or not a Johnson, he would not have been a legal heir, which meant someone would have to take his place.

KLOC would have a tougher time marching forward with Anthony's ambitions about the company and their probable endless hindrance.

As soon as Austin was out, and Anthony came to stir the market, whether KLOC could remain in its glory was a problem, let alone move further.

The old shareholders were clear that Austin was leading the company well and that they could benefit without even doing anything. Well, with the meager shares in hand, they could not actually do something even if they wanted to. Anyway, it would be best for them to remain silent and receive the money.

But now, even the money was unsure. It would appear natural that they would want to sell their shares when KLOC was having a rough time.

Maybe they could sell it at a nice price.

If Austin buys in himself, those old kinds of stuff would know that KLOC was still profitable and would be unwilling to sell.
