It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 922

"Do not worry, Melissa. Don't forget that we hold 60% shares of MY Mall. We don't need to be afraid. He couldn't really acquire Kompass Group." Shaun said through gritted teeth. Those damn fence-sitters! How could they sell the company shares secretly! He would give them a good lesson after he went back. Did FX International really think that if they held 40% of the shares, they would make him give in? It was impossible! They must have forgotten that he had the majority of the shares. In any case, he was the biggest stakeholder of Kompass Group. Even if Edward purchased the remaining stakes, what could he do? It was pointless. It was obvious to Shaun that he was in charge of the company as he held 60% of the shares.

"That is true. However, we will have to exchange the Kompass Group for MY Mall. In any respect, it seems that we are losing." Melissa did not find comfort in Shaun's words. She knew Edward better than anyone else. She had experienced first hand his skills in business. It was well-known that he was an expert at offending others, but no one could take the slightest advantage of him. Melissa calmed down, suspecting that letting Shaun purchase the shares of MY Mall had been Edward's intention. Did he deliberately turn a blind eye to Shaun's acquisition so that he threw in all his investments? This way, he could cut off Shaun's cash flow, giving him no opportunity to collect back the stocks of Kompass Group if need be. Shaun would be stuck in the middle, with no room to move around.

"Hmm. No. That is impossible. Things have not come to a head yet. It is too early to predict who wins and who loses." Shaun smiled coldly. It seemed that the war between him and Edward was out in the open. They both knew the other's objective.

"It is not easy to handle Edward, Shaun. I advise you to be careful. Once he starts, it won't be easy to detect his ruse and fight back." Melissa was fully aware of the ruthless measures that Edward undertook. He took possession of her own company in a matter of few days. It was not difficult to ascertain how cruel Edward could get when he was angry.

"How come you know him so well? To me it seems that he is not your enemy, but your former lover!" Shaun gazed at her with a puzzled look on his face. Every little thing revealed that the bone of contention between her and Edward was not a mere family feud.

"How is that possible!. You think too much. If I knew him that well, why would he not recognize me at the department store that day?" Melissa could not look into Shaun's inquiring eyes. She would not admit that they had been together before. The first time she had sex with Shaun, she pretended to be a virgin. If Shaun knew what had passed between her and Edward, her previous efforts to make Shaun fall in love with her might come to naught.

"That's true. But I sensed that his words had another meaning behind them. Are you sure you don't know him before?" It was no wonder that Shaun suspected Melissa. From her words, it seemed that she was well-versed with everything about Edward. Shaun did not want to be the fool, so he had to ask her this question.

"Why are you still asking me? Don't you believe me?" Melissa frowned as she gazed at Shaun coldly. There was a hint of displeasure on her face as her heart thumped loudly.
