Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort novel Chapter 1640

Chapter 1640 Choosing One

Stunned, Chris stared blankly at the will and was lost for words.

Racking his brains desperately, he realized that he would only have a twenty percent stake in Nacht Group after giving away twenty to Charlotte and not receiving anything from Henry as his inheritance.

Furthermore, he would be relegated to the same position as Charlotte in the company at twenty percent.

Consequently, all his decisions would require Charlotte’s consent.

For example, his plan to get Jesse onto the board would now need her permission.

Therefore, he felt as if he had lost the advantage his identity gave him.

Just when he had run out of ideas, his secretary, Jean, reminded him from behind, “Mr. Nacht, for this exchange, you don’t necessarily have to use the shares of Nacht Group. Instead, you can replace some of it with Divine Corporation.”

Chris’ eyes lit up the moment he heard her. He replied excitedly, “That’s right! I only owe her about a few hundred billion, right? I’ll just give her a ten percent stake in Nacht Group and pay off the rest with shares in Divine Corporation.”

“Mr. Nacht, we have already done the math.” The accounted showed him a table. “Divine Corporation’s market capitalization is only one-tenth of Nacht Group. In other words, even if you hand over your entire stake in Divine Corporation, you still have to give Ms. Lindberg a ten percent stake in Nacht Group.”

Unable to comprehend the situation, Chris was bewildered. “Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake? It’s only two years’ worth of profits. How can it be equal to an entire stake in Divine Corporation?”

“There’s no mistake,” the accountant replied with certainty. “Ever since its establishment, Divine Corporation has always been investing. It wasn’t until the last three years that they began to turn a profit. As for the agreement you signed with Ms. Lindberg, it relates exactly to these three years.”

After a brief pause, the accountant added, “As for your share in the profits from Nacht Group over the last three years, this is how much it is.”

Almost choking on himself, Chris was so infuriated that he was utterly stumped.
