“No!” Christopher shook his head, his eyes glinted. “I’m just a little taken aback. Even though I have given you so much money, Mr. Goldstein is still concerned about you and fears that you don’t have enough money to spend. I mean, he even gave you such a significant dowry – isn’t he afraid that I might just keep your dowry to myself?”
“Will you do that?” I teased him. Since I was not facing him, I was unaware of Christopher’s upset reaction upon reading about the shareholding.
“This is entirely possible. I’ve recently decided to expand a few projects. So why don’t you transfer your shares to me and I’ll combine our shares to make a bigger profit? What do you think?”
“Huh?” I turned around to look at Christopher and asked, “Do you really want to do that?”
“Of course! Do you find it upsetting that I want to take your shares?” Christopher pretended to be in pain and sprawled on the table. He then said, “Poor me! My shares are gone and I’m trying to borrow money from my Honey, only to be turned down. So, what should I do next? I can’t stand it anymore; I’m going to jump into the river!”
“Remember to bring me with you when you jump. Tell your beautiful assistant to draw up a document, and I’ll sign it for you later,” I said while lightly tapping Christopher’s shoulder.
Obviously, I did not believe that Christopher would take possession of my assets. However, since Christopher stated he wanted it, I would simply give it to him. The naive me would not have an idea what was going on with these projects.
I then went to the office of Lane Corporation and completed all of the relevant procedures and formalities. I was not hesitant at all when it came to the signing. “If my dad wants to see me in the future, I’ll tell him to contact you directly.”
To avoid unnecessary trouble, it is best not to tell Mark about it. At that time, I had no idea about Mark’s purpose in giving me these documents.
